I am able to download packages now. I've hosted them here: http://shrine.lanceward.net/packages

I'll store the files so people can add more here: https://github.com/tosrevive/ShrinePackages/

It seems like many have a maximum version due to things which have been removed from TempleOS like Bitmap support. I see you've already got Issues for these. Do you think it is best to add them back to the base OS or add them into the application packages?

Hello, thanks for stepping up to do this.

In the interest of compatibility with TempleOS and other derivatives, I think it would be better to ship the removed functions with the applications that need it. However I can also imagine arguments supporting the opposite, or some sort of compromise (a library of functions that ships with Shrine, but can be also installed on vanilla and other derivatives)

Due to my neglect of Shrine, this never made it into a released ISO. At the same time, I see that the original server is still working fine. FYI, at some point in the future, I would like to set up a new solution with the HTTP server running under TempleOS.
