Subject: Re: [WiX-devs] How about package manager based on Windows Installer 
and WiX?

Package manager (IMHO) is a OS-level utility to download, install, manage, 
upgrade, uninstall, create (optional) and publish (opt.) packages. Also, it may 
have server-side part if PM allow multiple (decentralized) repositories.

Can you define package manager first? I’ve found people have different 
definitions of that word.


Note: IMHO, NuGet is a package manager for VS. It is not an installation 
mechanism, although there are projects that build on NuGet as a transportation 
protocol and write things like package managers.
