    Description: 
Feature: Managed File Transfer Module for the FTP Server

Hello,

I am introducing Apache FtpServer to our enterprise to kick our COTS product 
out. 

I think managed file transfer module/feature will act as catalyst for any FTP 
server product adoption. Now that the API is sold and stable, it is time to 
take the product to the next level. I personally think building an intuitive 
and simple MFT module will greatly benefit the adoption.

And that's exactly what we are doing.  I hope in another couple of months I can 
submit my work to you guys.

Here are is the high level Synopsys.

 - A admin web interface to the FTP Server so that ftp admin(s) on the fly make 
necessary changes to the configurations and to see current transfers (Ease of 
use for administrator)
 - Allow an employee or user within the enterprise to create an account and 
also allow the user to grant necessary privileges to share the file with 
others. (Shareability)
- Allow users to setup necessary notification on uploads, downloads, failures, 
pending pickup, etc. (Automated transfers)
- Allow users to report on past uploads, downloads, retries, etc. (SOX 
compliance!)

Though we can do many other things on this front, I would start here 
(Thoughtful reduction)

I am new to this project and I hope I make sense. 

Sincerely
--Arun
