"not current" is _not_ the same as "obsolete"!
"not current" means "there is a later version"
"obsolete" means "there is absolutely no reason to use this package".
If the FTP package in Debian Lenny allows you to transfer files between
machines, it is not "obsolete". The fact that the FTP package in Debian
Squeeze has a couple more minor features does not change that fact.
