People interested in installation and distribution tools should definitely 
take a look at PEAR's 1.4.x platform.  It's quite robust and has a lovely 
feature set.  The biggest new thing in 1.4.x is channels (well, 1.4 has 
been out a while, so perhaps "new" isn't the right word).

With channels, anyone can host a code repository accessible via end 
users's PEAR installers.  This makes it really easy to keep your clients 
up to date.
