This has been a point of contention for many months; I don't think anyone can answer you question fully for you -- search the debian mailing lists, or search Usenet (e.g. at deja.com) if you want to read all the various pros and cons. My personal advice is don't use (any of the) wu-ftpd or proftpd versions unless you actaully need to do virtual hosting (support different ftp archives at different internet host addresses on the same machine). The simple ftpd is likely a lot more secure, and definitely a lot less complex. They all allow you to provide user and anonymous ftp access.
