Well, I was long thinking about the best method of including "fruits of Bazaar".
I do not like current mode, when it is included as separate nest not linked in any package.
I rather propose this:
Let us choose packages polished enough (vote!). Let us put them into uppsrc for distribution purposes and also examples and reference examples of such packages to normal examples or reference.
However, let us write (or, better, let package authors) to mark such packages as "Bazaar: packagename by author", like
"Bazaar: DockCtrl by James Thomas"
Of course, later in the process, when vindicated, I would like to move such packages into uppsrc proper, giving their autors access to the repository.... (I am 85% convinced we will finally move to svn after this realease too).

Well, I'm using it adding Bazaar nest to my project's assembly (or to myapps) and it works quite well. For testing purposes, it's just enough to add a Bazaar assembly with just Bazaar and uppsrc, and you can compile demos.
IMHO whould be not a bad idea to add a Bazaar assembly (with just bazaar and uppsrc) for testing, add Bazaar nest to myapps AND leave there all still unpolished stuffs, while polished ones could be in uppsrc directly. It makes no harm to have an assembly with testing stuffs, it allows us to play with new packages even if they're still buggy.

I think the new assembly "bazaar" should be included, so anyone can check the current upp/bazaar directory right after installing new upp version in the "Select main package" dialog.
There's further question how to link it into MyApps? To use any bazaar package you have to add bazaar directory into MyApps's nests? Maybe this can be pre-set right from installation, if there's no conflict between bazaar package and uppsrc package.
But in case we will start to move packages from bazaar to uppsrc such conflicts may arise in the future, so before we add bazaar nest automagically to MyApps some upp-guru should tell exactly what/how/when can be broken when tho packages collide and how TheIDE will behave in such case.
(that means I fully support the Max's post, I'm just not sure about setting the bazaar nest into MyApps after installation, is it safe?)
Edit:
If adding bazaar nest is safe, maybe there's no need to move packages from bazaar at all (unless they are natural fit for core package, like DockControl seems to me). That way it will be easy to recognize which packages are optional "3rd party" things, and which are core packages supported directly by Mirek and Unodgs.

I guess this is ok for U++ developer or experienced user. However, I guess that for average user, adding another package to assembly is not that simple.
Anyway, in any case, I believe that it is important to mark them "Bazaar" in the info line, because such packages will appear among uppsrc packages...
