The more the merrier (usually<g>). But see below -- I think WiX v3.5 is too far along to redo the build, especially since so much of what would change is in the native code and therefore harder to validate. I'll ping Rob to see if he can weigh in.

Can also help with this too if it's the direction forward. Have had some experience converting from NANT to nMSBuild.

    So I wouldn’t be stepping on anyone’s toes if I were to have an
    early poke around looking at this?

    Cheers,

    OK, so there doesn’t sound like much to help out with (I had it in
    my head that there was a desire to move the build away from using
    Nant and just have a pure MSBuild process)?


    We'd love it -- and finally can, now that VC++ supports MSBuild in
    v4.0. But we've avoided making such low-level changes in v3.5 to
    avoid introducing compatibility problems in a point release.
    (Also, fun things like "can we still be compatible with VS2005/2008?")
