    Hi, @michael-o, thank you for your reply,
    
    as I understand wagon-http provider could recognize https protocol and use it when its needed?
    But I am using **wagon-ftp** provider for uploading the site to remote location using:
    
        </distributionManagement>
            <site>
                <id>some-id</id>
                <url>ftp://example.com/some/path</url>
            </site>
        </distributionManagement>
    
    I have seen [in the code](https://github.com/apache/maven-wagon/blob/wagon-2.10/wagon-providers/wagon-ftp/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/wagon/providers/ftp/FtpWagon.java#L115) that the default constructor for FTPClient is used. If we upgrade to commons-net in version 3.5, then explicit TLS is used by default.
    
    But what about commons-net version 3.1? Is it secure to use wagon-ftp provider with `ftp:` protocol? May we use `ftps:` in url?
    
    Could we have the change in [wagon-providers/wagon-ftp/src/site/apt/index.apt](https://github.com/apache/maven-wagon/blob/wagon-2.10/wagon-providers/wagon-ftp/src/site/apt/index.apt) to have it documented?
