proftpd was orphaned last month[1], and I hadn't seen any indication
that there was interest in adopting it.  While I have been rebuilding
some of the simpler orphaned packages, proftpd didn't appear to qualify
after a quick look.  If you are interested in adopting, the old sources
should still be in the Cygwin Time Machine, although given how old they
were, Fedora's packaging[2] may be more useful.
