I have not tested this, but changing PythonMethods to support FTP should
be as trivial as adding the following methods to the PythonMethod class:

    def PUT(self, REQUEST, RESPONSE):
        """ Handle HTTP PUT requests """
        self.dav__init(REQUEST, RESPONSE)
        body=REQUEST.get('BODY', '')
        self._validateProxy(REQUEST)
        self._body = rstrip(body)
        self.makeFunction(1)
        RESPONSE.setStatus(204)
        return RESPONSE

    def manage_FTPget(self):
        "Get source for FTP download"
        return self._body

This has the added bonus of enabling HTTP PUTs and WebDAV.
