Comment(by sukhbir):

 I just [https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/sukhbir/gettor.git pushed] the
 Dropbox uploader I talked about earlier. It generates both HTTP and HTTPS
 links and it's very easy to rotate the URLs if we need. (If we get a new
 account, we have a new URL.)

 Given that we have TBB sizes < 25 MB because of our dropping off Vidalia,
 I am not sure if there is any interest currently in adding support for
 more ways to distribute the bundles since GetTor will become functional
 again when we move to the new bundles completely. However, if anyone still
 thinks this can be useful for us, then I can work with kaner to start
 distributing Dropbox links in the GetTor email body. (The script above
 outputs the links to a file, so GetTor integration should not be much
 time.)
