Michele -
Listen to your inner voice :-)
If simple is all you want, try twisted. You can use mktap to create a
simple ftp server and be ready to serve in a few minutes. And if you
are upto it, get buried in the documents and you can customize your ftp
server.
If you are looking for something simpler but not asynchronous, I found
this at the Vault called pyFTPDrop, which is aimed at *NIX.

PS: I am sure Medusa is fairly straightforward too, but I have no
experience with it.
