Not that my opinion should carry much weight considering Rob has
already voiced his opinion, but he is obligated to take a more
cautious stance than the rest of us. I would move whole heartedly to
V3. Just the shortfilename, longfilename stuff alone was worth the
move for me.

The only problem I know of is the lacking of documentation. For
instance the help file included in wix3 contains docs for wix2.
The WiX.chm in the WiX v3 releases contains schema doc for WiX v3. There
are other topics that refer to WiX v2, however.

This year? Stick to v2. I'm expecting there will be another bump or two in
the next few months in v3 that I would not want you to go through. WiX v2
isn't as cool as WiX v3 but it will behave consistently... which is probably
the most important thing for you in the next few months.
In my experience (and who's experience other than mine would I have?) v3
is stable enough to do most tasks that the average installer needs to
do. Granted, most of our installers (currently in test/demo phase) copy
files around, register stuff in the GAC, create a web page or a virtual
directory
Thanks Rob and Matt,
I think that gives me a better idea of where to go next - I'll probably
start with V2, build a simple project, and then take a look at WixCop...
with a view to moving to V3 as soon as we get a 'stable' build... I suspect
that for this release, anything I do will be V2 based.
