There are many aspects :
- legal, as while incubating, AFAIK, JSecurity can't release, when
FtpServer can : how does it fit ?
- to cover case #1, you can still use the external JSecurity version, as
an external jar (but what about the IP problems ?)
- cross-improvements : as mentioned by Niclas, if FtpServer can
complement Jsecurity, and vice-versa, that would be interesting for both
projects.
I don't know about #1, but I think this is the main concern, so far.
Anyone has a strong opinion on this point ?
