I think the dist-process as described in the link would be fine. I do not think that process existed (or it was still very immature) at the time we did the 1.0 release. I personally have never been very happy about the public_html approach and I was only copying what other projects were doing at the time. ..As a side comment: there are very few guidelines about this kind of thing.
