File Up-/Download-Management Module +Ratings desired

Hello,

i'm really enthusiastic using Drupal, thanks god that i've found this cms.

Do you have a module recommendation for this request:

File Up-/Download-Management:

Functionality similar to Remository for Mambo/Joomla: http://www.remository.com/

* User is able to upload files (into different categories), after this admin gets eMail-Alerts
* User-Uploads are not published until admin-verification (permit/refuse/edit)

* Other Users are able to rate published Uploads (FiveStars?), maybe comments

* Several Ratings-Lists
Uploads with lowest/best rating
Uploads with lowest/most downloads
...

Best Case would be those Ratings-Lists separated into time-sections, e.g.
best of last week/month/all-time
latest uploads
in all categories/specific category
and so on.

Thanks in advance for some help, live-examples appreciated, Lutz

the only single module i know that handles this is the http://drupal.org/project/project module (the same module that handles the download section on drupal.org). However, it's pretty single purpose and notoriously inflexible.

If I were doing this i would go with a more flexible approach using several modules. I would use the core taxonomy module for categories, and some or all of the following:

I feared this advice as much. :O)

Thank you for your interesting module-referrals!

Looks like i have to get better acquainted to connect them, but i'll try that.
