Hi Maurice,

We don't have any tools or plugins to do this, no.

Security is also a much larger concern when you have a web script that can rewrite itself (read: upgrade itself.)

If you're serious about large-scale web development, you'd probably want to use an external deployment tool anyways (or a custom-built Ruby script?) so that you'd have maximal control over which files are changing and when. Obviously, you'd want to manage revisions (or backups at least) of the software itself.

I'd try asking on a Sysadmin forum to see what kinds of tools are available for batch FTP uploading to multiple servers.

Best of luck!
All the best,
Chris
