For package distribution: Does one have to setup a web server, or can packages be distributed via a shared Dropbox folder?

This is a great page, thank you!  Consolidates all the information needed by someone regarding NI package manager. 

I stumbled upon this page when I was completely new to package manager and this page guided me.  I still find myself coming back to this page when I have questions.  I look forward to more topics having a 'homepage' or a portal page like this.
