Hi, I have just updated the Dropbox plugin, with the following changes:
Share and Unshare actions - symlinks files to Dropbox/Public/Do Shared Files Revisions action - view file revisions on the Dropbox web site Web interface action - see private folder details on the Dropbox web site Start/Stop actions now show depending on Dropbox status. https://code.launchpad.net/~stephen-elson/do-plugins/Dropbox Thanks to everyone for their suggestions, I will write a wiki page for the plugin is people like it.
