It wasn't clear to me from the documentation what would happen if, for 
example, there is an archive period of 30 minutes and the ftp report, for 
example, had a timing option of */5 * * * *. ie one is saying do ftp every 
5 minutes

In this instance there would be 5 or 6 ftp's expected within one archive 
interval.

Would weewx do the ftp reports expected before the archive interval or 
would nothing happen until the interval occurred at which time weewx would 
go back through time, find there was an ftp expected and do a single 
transfer? or would it go back over the whole period and actually do the 5 
or 6 transfers which should have occurred during the interval?  The 
documentation on timing has examples where report frequency is less often 
than archive period - rather than this case where a more frequent ftp was 
required.
