Comment (by pulkomandy):

In any case, are there still any public ftp servers left?

 - https://ftp.gnu.org ;(from the GNU project)
 - http://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/ ;(containing various old and new material about a
 variety of computer things, including a mirror of Haiku releases)

 And probably many others as well.

 There is a work in progress patch on Gerrit to add FTP support to
 libnetservices, but it indeed does not fit very well in the current
 design. I think that's good, we should see if it's possible to make the
 design fit better to non-HTTP protocols.
