Currently I know of know full-featured FTP : server that has source available and is freeware. That's not fair. A root exploit that hit virtually every ftpd is not grounds to go and say proftpd should only be used "if security isn't important" Think about it for a moment, in my eyes, this bug does not detract at all from proftpd's solid performance.
