Hi Backporters,

could you please get proftpd get backported in hoary? the version in
breezy fixes 2 security problems not listed in CVE. According to
http://changelog.debian.net/proftpd these 2 bugs are relevant:

* http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2645
* http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2646

Considering that 

* no new upstream is in breezy
* and many other bugs have been fixed according to upstream,

it seems reasonable to me to get the breezy version backported in
hoary rather than to backport exactly these to fixes, considering it
is a universe package.

thank you for considering.
