Very shortly there is going to be a mechanism to address this. At the very least there is going to be a command line tool that lets you list, install, and remove bundles.  You'll be able to get your bundle listed in this tool.  Actually… you should be able to continue using subversion for development, as long as you can find someplace to host your bundle. You could use googlecode or sourceforge…
