OK, I see the problem. When I added FTP services to the Hub, what I thought of was that at least one if not many developers work on the code of a project (via Subversion), but only one person, the code maintainer, will upload the ready-made binaries (via FTP). The way it's implemented, every developer (the maintainer) starting a new project on the Hub gets his own chrooted FTP account. Technically, it'd be difficult to break out of this restricted environment to allow someone access to someone else's FTP space.
I will keep your suggestion in mind, but I hope that in the mean time you'll be able to solve this problem by using the forum attach feature as a temporary space for the new Windows binaries of your project.
