A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :

There are certain classes like the HttpURLConnection and HttpsURLConnection but there is no FtpURLConnection that is part of the java.net package.

1) Support accessing password encrypted ftp sites via the the Authenticator class and simple connection to these ftp classes something similar to these lines

ftp://username:###@###.###/polo.zip

2) Another thing is the FTPClient class is in the sun.com class. That FTPClient class works very well and it would really be good if it was part of the java.net package.

JUSTIFICATION :
These classes already exist but in the sun.com package so they are not guranteed to be in other further releases but the thing is these classes work so well and it would be waste if they were excluded out in future releases.
