Just to resolve this ...

It's not worth any of our time to prolong the discussion.

Not sure whether ftp is universally available, though.
A lot more universally than ncftpput, I expect.
If you want me to prepare a patch, I'll try. If you'd rather not bother
with it, I'll just write about putting the replacement script into
gnulib. I don't have strong feelings about it
1) do you have any interest in eliminating the dependency on ncftpput?
Sure.
So perhaps the best outcome would be for gnupload to use ftp itself,
instead of ncftpput? Ie, this stuff could become a function in
gnupload?
Failing that, perhaps gnupload could use a variable, e.g.,

Hi Ralf and everyone,
I received a suggestion to mention gnupload in the GNU maintainers
manual, since it's the easiest way (that I know of, anyway) to upload

However, there is one issue I felt should be mentioned to do so: the
dependency on ncftpput.

somewhere, somehow?
Fine with me. I suppose
