[Using Sakai] Alternatives to WebDAV (FTP?)

[Marshall Feldman]

Hi,

My university is converting from WebCT to Sakai for next fall. So far, 
WebDAV is the only method we have to move multiple files to the Sakai 
server. WebDAV on Windows is notoriously buggy 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webdav#Microsoft_Windows>, and I have been 
unable to get it to work with our server and my PC. Furthermore, 
html-authoring software like KompoZer <http://kompozer.net/>have 
built-in FTP with synchronization, whereas WebDAV would have to be 
treated as a directory (no mirroring) and synchronization would not be 
built in.

Are there any alternatives to WebDAV for maintaining multiple-files one 
Sakai? In particular, is anyone out there using FTP?

Thanks.
