The best solution right now is to put them in the bundle. The user
isn't interested in worrying about framework versions -- if you try to
make them, very few people will use your application (and many of those
that do will get confused when you do choose to make a update).
Instead, if you put the frameworks in the app bundle, the user can
just drag-and-drop the installation. As a plus, this means that the
user can easily run both new and old copies of your software if they so
choose.
