From the included Version 2.0 - March 23, 2011 changelog, to quote:

• Changed ICON0.PNG
• Moved to a different XMB category (now under Network)
• Fixed another possible memory leak
• Added "dev_dragon" to mount detection and warning list
• Changed LIST command output format (again)
• Added new algorithms and methods
• Should support Remote Play (untested)
• Added a better way to get the IP (no internet required anymore - thanks andoma)
• Added /app_home and /host_root to listing exceptions as they cause problems
• Now uses Hermes' sysfs sprx link instead of lv2 syscalls
• Tweaks made to improve internal performance, stability, and reliability
• Added a "screen saver" (simply blanks screen after 60 sec of no controller input)
• Added an exit application button combination shortcut (SELECT + START)
• Added an internal "retry system" designed to reduce failed transfers for small files
• New git for v2.0 and later: http://git-hacks.com/openps3ftp

General Usage Tutorial : Just a small tutorial on the basics.

Prerequisites:

• Custom Firmware (tested on 3.55, but should work for all)
• A network connection

Installation:

• Extract the pkg files from the archive and copy them into a USB drive
• Connect the USB drive to your console and select the pkg file under the "Install Package Files" menu (found under Game)

Note: The pkg file that you select should correspond to the custom firmware you are using. For example: if you have installed geohot's 3.55 jailbreak, use the file "openps3ftp.geohot.pkg". If not, use "openps3ftp.pkg". Users of CFW 3.55 kmeaw can use any pkg.

• OpenPS3FTP is now installed!

Usage:

• Launch OpenPS3FTP (found under Network)
• Wait until you see text on the screen.
• Connect to your console using an FTP client (such as FileZilla) with the IP address and port shown on the screen with user root and password openbox.
• Now that you're connected, you can browse through and manipulate files on your console as if it were a folder on your computer.
