And Rob brought out Thor's Hammer of Veto. It's too risky for v3.x but definitely something we want for v4.0.

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?")
