I would absolutely LOVE an XML-driven replacement for MakeAppx.exe. Besides
the non-declarative model, the thing won't run on Server OS's-only Windows
8.1-which makes it worthless on my build servers.

The word at Microsoft is packages. APPX, APK, and WebDeploy. All fine and
dandy, and they work well enough in a limited set of circumstances.
Of course, when I ask the MVP instructors to discuss the disadvantages of
packages, they seemingly can't come up with any.
Experience teaches otherwise.

"To achieve these benefits, we removed the GUI stack, 32 bit support (WOW64),
MSI and a number of default Server Core components."
Guess we won't have to worry about nano compatibility...
Thanks,
Jacob
