Add a new option, '-o', for "Write-only". Disables the RETR command,
preventing anyone from downloading files. In conjunction with -A, and some appropriate file permissions, this lets you create an anonymous FTP drop box for people to upload files to. The more obvious "-w" flag is already taken by NetBSD's ftpd. "-o" was available as an option letter in all three BSDs.
