We are fresh off a learning curve climb for WiX. Wow. It is a breath of fresh 
air compared to VS setup projects. Anyway, WiX is free and integrates fine into 
TFS (it's another MSBuild build type and can be all command line driven). If 
you are willing to "pay" for WiX (it will cost you time but zero dollars) then 
you don't have to advise the client to buy a commercial license.


HTH.

Subject: Wise Project Studio and TFS

My client is using Wise for building MSI's.  Searches on Wise Package Studio 
and TFS haven't turned anything up.  I assume it's callable from a command 
line?  Is the lack of info a red-flag?  Is it "wise" to consider advising the 
client to buy a license for an alternative tool?  (We are taking up packing 
from another team - not clear if the license will transfer anyway and may need 
to buy one anywho...)

Thanks!
