http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hoffman-ftp-uri-04 was intended to update the "ftp" URI scheme registration. I don't remember exactly, but what I vaguely remember was that it was held up because the text *didn't* match common implementations. Getting some attention paid to updating it would be helpful. Volunteers?

Sorry if this is FAQ, What defines detail of ftp URI scheme now? IANA registry for URI schemes says it is RFC 1738. http://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-schemes.html But RFC 1738 is updated by RFC 1808, and both of them are obsoleted by RFC 3986, 4248, 4266. But they doesn't describe about ftp URI Scheme. (file URI scheme is same situation) Also note that RFC 1738 and current major implementation are different. For example, 3.2.2. FTP url-path says, ftp://host/etc is parsed as `CWD etc`, but they sends `CWD /etc`. And they ignore typecode of ftp URI. (Google Chrome simply send as it is a part of filename) -- NARUSE, Yui <naruse@airemix.jp>
