I should mention that we now have some of the install api in core,  
most notably the update process.
All modules can now use the update process of drupal core, by  
shipping .install files.

The big issue is, we aren't allowing modules to be installed via the  
install api yet , and it is a very
simple function...

There are some issues with implementing the install() function  
without dependencies and phases though,
especially when install profiles are involved.

Bryght and civicspace have written and tested a large amount of  
install files for modules
with the current install api though, and if we are going to allow  
updates of modules, we should
at the very least allow installations too.

Here are our .install files  so far. Keep in mind.. these are just  
for modules that have db schemas. :
