We'd like to change the file extension for WiX extensions from .dll to
.wixext, but wanted to get a feel from the community how this would affect
people. Please respond if this would affect you negatively (or positively)
and how. Note that this is just for wix v3. Version 2 is not affected.
Just as a little background. Changing the file extension from .dll to
.wixext will help quite a bit in Votive and in the MSBuild targets, not only
from a development perspective but also for end-user ease of use. Right now,
there's really no easy way to tell if something is a managed DLL vs. a WiX
extension. By changing the file extension, it helps in that regard.
If we don't receive a lot of negative feedback, then expect this change to
happen fairly soon.
Thanks,
Justin
