we don't support FTP at the moment, but I'd be happy to accept PR that adds it

I have investigate support for FTP in iOS and it's complicated:

  • URLSession (and the older NSURLConnection) support only simple FTP downloads.
  • CFFTPStream was deprecated in the latest OS releases.

Good source is a post on Apple Developers Forums. @krzysztofzablocki do you think that FTP support is a good feature for this library?

I don't feel its needed, with etag / last modified we support both AWS and Dropbox like hosting, if someone wants to add I'd be fine accepting but don't feel like its common to use FTP for this kind of problem
