1219194 - Fix FTP's list display

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core Graveyard :: Networking: FTP, defect)

Description

[Mark Straver]

This is filed as a follow-up from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1174462#c23 where :dougt indicates that the LIST display for FTP is broken in some ways. Considering the protocol support isn't going anywhere anytime soon, this should be fixed up.

Doug, can you elaborate on in what way the display is broken and what might need to be fixed, specifically?

Could he mean the distressing absences of "Last modified" and "Size" on these listings (and http directory lists) from sites like mozilla.org but not others?

Mozilla no longer does FTP.. period.. It is a webserver generated index on a cdn. Thus this observation is wholly invalid.

I'm only taking security fixes to the ftp code.
