In our company we use a mixed approach. Critical files are
packed into an exe-file, the rest is distributed in
subdirectories.
The use of DevPacker is fairly easy, ordering of modules
does not matter. A certain problem is, that you cannot be
sure to have included all files needed, unless you test
all the commands of your application once again.
