1. If you sign the assignment agreement then, yeah, I'd take a change to setupbld/setupexe. Those features are essentially "outside" of WiX v3 so we're not being as hardcore about the changes going in, yet. When you get to that stage, please send the patch to wix-devs.
2. My expectation is that WiX v3.5 happens during 2009. The hope is that WiX v3 bugs ramp down hard and so we can spend some focused time on the bootstrapper that got cut from WiX v3.0. Burn (the bootstrapper) was a hard cut from WiX v3 but looking at the bug count and stability of the core toolset and extensions I think it was worth it. Currently, the only thing in WiX v3.5 is burn development, that's why I hope we can get it to RC quality by the end of 2009. WiX v4 will start sometime 2010 since I expect WiX v3.0 to be all done end of 2009. An updated roadmap about all of this is coming soon. I've just been focused on killing the last few extension bugs. Can you tell what we're focused on? <smile/> -----Original Message----- From: carlldev [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 27, 2008 01:39 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] setupbld, bootstrappers and command line parameters (msicl) Thanks Rob. I'd be willing to contribute to the project and make the change if we could include it in v3.0. Is that something you might consider? It should only be a small change... Out of interest, where does 3.5 fit in the roadmap? I read your post on the roadmap at http://robmensching.com/blog/archive/2008/06/06/Proposed-adjustments-the-WiX-v2-and-WiX-v3-roadmap.aspx and there is no clear indication of what 3.5 will contain, nor when it's planned for. Or am I missing something? Rob Mensching-2 wrote: > > Yes. Well, actually, more likely WiX v3.5 with burn will supersede the > functionality completely.
