Re: FTP plugin got extremely unreliable

The FTP plugin is not under active development. Neither is the jsch library
upon which FTP is based.
It is possible the problems you are having are due to a jEdit bug, but to
investigate further, you need to open a ticket in plugin-bugs tracker with
info on how to reproduce, what kinds of errors you are getting (attach the
activity log, in case it shows us something).
If you are a Java developer and want to help out in debugging it and making
it better, any help is appreciated. I am not the original developer and I
am learning my way around the code just like anyone else.
