Hello,
I use bundles.
I use them to cluster packages that go together, e.g. Hash Analysis Tool
bundle. I also use them to cluster things inside bundles, e.g.: the
hash functions bundle inside the Hash Analysis Tool bundle.
Even if managing prerequisites was easy (note: not "easier" but "easy"),
bundles would probably make sense from the POV of Envy's configuration
maps. In other words, prerequisites describe necessary conditions (if
this is not present, then that won't work), but not necessarily
sufficient ones (if this is not present, then the software works but it
does not meet the requirements of the user because module such is
missing).
Andres.

On his Blog, Jim asked about Store Bundles:
* Do you use bundles?
* If so, how do you use them, and why?
* If setting explicit pre-reqs was easier, would you still use
bundles?
I do use bundles.
I use nested bundles with an outer master bundle for every project.
Even if setting preq versions were easier I probably still use bundles.
I like the explicit containment.
