Any pgp key will do, the only requirement is a packager like myself
can verify it's the one the Calligra devs used which is usually done
by putting it on a pgp key server and putting the full fingerprint on
the release announcement web page and/or e-mails (not on a wiki as
Kirigami devs like to do).

You can't use upload.kde.org no but you could use share.kde.org or any
other of 100 services like Google Drive or Dropbox.

very few people have direct access to download.kde.org, the normal
process is upload.kde.org and sysadmin request.

A week feels a bit much to me but as you wish
