The following is all theoretical you understand:
Community Resource Pack:
Download the entire collection of up-to-date third party components in one hit.
The downloaded CRP_A executable extracts an uncompressed CRP_B executable. The downloaded CRP_A executable can then be deleted.
The CRP_B executable checks for updates to the entire collection and, if requested, downloads a patch and updates itself to the latest version.
It will not be possible to update the CRP's individual components, only all of them at once.
Mod Install-Maker-made Installers:
If the user does not have a required component/version, informs them that it will be downloaded (ok/cancel). A stand-alone installer for that component is downloaded and executed.
I'm not 100% certain I can do this but I am optimistic.
Thoughts?

Ever wondered what the hell is going on?
