Folder Action Script to bundle drops

Greetings all,

I'm mostly a lurker here, but I've run into a time-constrained request that I hope someone can help with. I have an end of the semester rush need for a folder action script that will do the following:

1) Be attached to a folder on a server.
2) Accept file/folder drops from various students.
3) Collect all the files/folders drops into a new folder.
4) Name the folder based on the student's login ID and a timestamp.
5) Set the owner of the folder to the student's login ID.
6) Set the group for the folder to admin.
7) Set the permissions on the folder to owner:r/w, group:r/w, others:no access.
8) Pop up a display dialog with the folder name for the student's reference.

Does anyone happen to have something like that just laying around that I could use/adapt REAL fast... *heh*. Thanks for any assistance!
