I want to create a self updating setup.exe with Burn. I hope that using the 
<Update> element of the Bundle with Wix 3.7 will work.  The Help says this 
piece wasn't working yet but it looks like you use it for Wix updates.  True?


Is there a reason you use a feed or was it just convenience?

My plan:
Set up a folder and file tree off a web server. From the Wix 3.7 source it 
looks like the UpdateURL attribute of the Bundle element in the refers to the 
root URL  where all subsequent updates of this version of product will be.  For 
example: http://ourhouse/releases/myAppName.   Or Is <Update Location='xxxx' /> 
the critical element?  Or are both necessary?

For each update we would add a folder under MyAppName with a unique ID such as 
the setup.exe version number (1.0.0.0,  1.0.0.1 etc)

If we have 4 packages per setup.exe would each sub folder have to all of the 
packages referenced by the bundle?

I'm open to other ideas and I'd be happy to contribute code back or to the Help 
if I am on a useful track?
