Hello,

I've recently found the draft of FTPEXT WG: 
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-ftpext-utf-8-option-00.txt.  It 
specifies the mechanism to negotiate the use of UTF-8 encoded pathnames 
in FTP.  To my knowledge, this option is currently implemented by many 
applications, but still remain undocumented.  In order to fill this gap, 
I'd like to propose the FTPEXT2 WG to undertake the effort to reopen the 
work on the document.  Any thoughts?
