Sounds good. I'm not very familiar with the ecosystem, but I thought I'd 
point out that we also have a chocolatey 
package https://chocolatey.org/packages/packer. From reading stackoverflow, 
it sounds like chocolatey is for installing binaries, and nuget is best for 
code libraries. 

If you'd still like to publish packer on nuget, you might want to submit a 
PR updating the installation docs with information on how to install packer 
through nuget: 
https://github.com/mitchellh/packer/blob/master/website/source/docs/installation.html.md

One other thing I thought I'd mention is that you might want to verify that 
checksums of the downloaded binaries, and to also verify the checksum file 
signature with our public key. See https://www.hashicorp.com/security.html 
for more information.

Thanks,
