being a new TextMate user I want to install now a TeX/LaTex distribution. Yet there are so many of them. Which one works best with the LaTeX bundle of Textmate?
MacTeX-2007 is the nearest thing there is to a "standard" distribution at the moment, so I suggest you use that. It certainly works well with TextMate.

I can only confirm this. I just installed MacTex today and everything works like a charm. Prior to that, I installed it via MacPorts, which also kind of worked but the documents (meaning the fonts) look much better with MacTex (don't know exactly why, though).
I prefer gwTeX based on TL2007 with I-Installer. With MacTeX (certainly a good distribution and perhaps the only one in the future) , you can't make the choices that you want. A lot of things are installed, for example in my format i want only english and french hypenation. I can make that with I-installer but with macTeX...I don't know . You can easily with the mode expert ang I- installer to get something very special with languages, fonts, paper size etc....
The choice is between two distributions. I think a bad idea is to use fink or macport, except if you like the challenge.
