#1 Use commons-FileUpload for multipart requests

[Gerhard Grosse]

Currently the com.oreilly.servlet library is used to parse
multipart/form-data requests used for HTML file uploads. While this
library is good, this situation is unsatisfactory, because this library is
not open source and its license terms are somewhat
obtuse.

The Jakarta project is currently developing a package
with these capabilities as part of the jakarta-commons suite. As soon as
this package becomes stable, it should be used instead. As of today
(2003-03-26) this package is still in beta phase.
