This is purely speculation (and fairly negative speculation at that!) but I'd advocate caution for a while yet. Maybe ActiveState or Enthought could provide some input on how/if sumo bundles can address the need to upgrade "parts" of the distribution?

We at Enthought are moving towards distributing a smallish bootstrap distribution and provide most of the packages as eggs. Upgrades should then be an easy_install away.
