I'm the person who performed the code reorganization so, I'll do my best to
help you out.
There are multiple implementations of upload service avaliable, including
the O'Reily uploader. You need the following settings in TurbineResources.properties
to use it:
services.TurbineUploadService.classame=org.apache.turbine.services.upload.OReillyUploadService
# the UploadService implementation developed from old
org.apache.turbine.util.upload.OReillyUploader
services.TurbineUploadService.automatic=false
# you want your files to be pickedup by the UpladFile action
services.TurbineUploadService.repository=/somepath/
# set the path where you want your files here
services.TurbineUploadService.size.max=1048576
# set the maximum size of the request to be accepted in bytes
Use org.apache.turbine.samples.actions.UploadFile to perform the upload.
I expect that you should be able to upgrade your system smoothly. If you have any
problems, you
can contact me be private email.

Frankly, I have no idea. I have good knowledge of file upload subsystem,
and I haven't encoutered any references to that configuration value in
the code. I was wondering what could it be, and some grepintg revealed
that this config key is referenced int the e-mail subsytem. Strange, eh?
Maybe I just haven't been around long enough...

You can upload the files to the filesystem like you did before.

The uploading code is not related to downloading. If you set your
repository directory inside your webapp dir, but outside WEB-INF,
your files will be served by Tomcat without any further intervetion
(you must provide URLs for them to the user somehow though). Otherwise
you need to read them and feed them to the browser.
