that is a question that should be discussed. Algorihtm providers in SEXTANTE can be turned off, so I would prefer to have them all together, since the size is rather small, and to activate them within SEXTANTE.
However, there is already a mechanism for creating plugins that connect their algorithms into SEXTANTE, for those who prefer to develop them outside of SEXTANTE and distribute them separately as well. As I said, in the case of small plugins, it should not be a problem to include them in SEXTANTE. The main issue I see is related to providers using external apps and how to distribute them. I think that this should also be discussed. For now, I will keep all the backends and algorithms that I develop in one single plugin along with the SEXTANTE core. If other developers want their algorithms also included there, just tell me. And if someone creates its own provider as an external plugin, it should be clearly stated that it requires SEXTANTE, so people can install it in advance and also can search for SEXTANTE-based plugins.
