The only need a GM has for FTP is really to upload their team export. There isn't necessarily a need to have an FTP download - it should be possible to do it via HTTP.
The game should have two FTPs - one for the commish and one for the GMs - and when the commish runs a sim and creates the .tar.gz file for the league it just strips out all the information pertaining to the commish FTP so the only FTP information that gets passed to the GM is the details he needs to export his team.
Then this export FTP can be given access to just one directory and there's nothing in there that can be exploited as it is just basically team_nnn.ootp files.

I would not want to see it go to http, it would greatly slow down owner downloads.
Anyway, the issue has bee addressed and fixed -
