Re: Call for Community Feedback: Retiring IETF FTP Service

This makes no sense. What computers do you believe that people use in
2020 that support FTP but not rsync? And if that were true, why do we
see orders of magnitude more rsync traffic than FTP?

I use a Mac laptop which, based on what I've seen at IETF meetings, is
a fairly popular choice.  It has rsync as part of the base system, and
no FTP client other than as part of curl, which of course also supports
http and https.

It does have sftp :-)

Well, sure, but as we all know, sftp and rsync both run on top of ssh.
