Hi Kandur!
I use dropbox which is free.  Once installed you create a local directory
and anything put into that directory is automatically uploaded to the
dropbox servers, then you just distribute the dropbox link for anything you
wish to share.  The link is dropbox.com.

Yes Bill, that is the table of content, of the TOP package.
Where should I upload the whole package?

Many traditional UNIX games are also provided.
