Cool. So we could get one package set for the latest RTM and another one for
weekly builds, or something like that?

Hello again,
Chocolatey is a wrapper around nuget created by Rob Reynolds for executables,
so its like apt-get/yum for Windows. I maintain several packages. Together with
a gentleman named Gary Ewan Park (gep13 on twitter, github, and elsewhere) I
maintain packages for wix.
Gary and I would like the chocolatey nuget packages to be created by the wix
build process, and uploaded to chocolatey.org as part of the current release
processes. I'm more than willing to help with patches. I opened a ticket and
Bob Arnson asked me to start a conversation over here.
From the technical side of things, there is a nuget package with msbuild tasks
for building nuget files. So I can generate the chocolatey package generation
to nuget.pkg. The best practice would be as follows:
A chocolatey package to download and silntly install the setup file.
A chocolatey package to install the zip distribution.
A chocolatey meta package (nuspec with dependencies only) with the exe install
as a dependency.
Then someone on the nuget team would make an account on chocolatey.org (its
runs the nuget.org codee) take ownership of the chocolatey packages and publish
them at release time.
Regards,
Justin
