# This script will be used to monitor uploads to a specified directory
# and move them to another directory for downloading.
#
# Things to consider:
#       1. Was the uploaded files uploaded in a sub directory.
#       2. Are the files being uploaded complete.
#       3. Move the files to the specified directory
#          with the proper permissions.
