Well some folks have suggested that it still does a few things
correctly that ncftp2 does not, and I personally have had weird
problems with ncftp2 myself where it simply drops the connection with
the server for no discernable reason.  I use ncftp every day, and for
reasons of backwards-compatibility I see no reason not to leave it as
1.x for now?  Yes, someday it would be nice to have a single tool
again but let's have a short transition period first - I _just_ kicked
it out of the tree, and some people are going to complain about that.
I'd prefer to be able to simply point them at the port.
