I believe in creating tools that give developers freedom instead of restricting 
it.  I can't personally think of why you'd want to do this but I'm willing to 
hear the story before passing judgement.

   Thanks. Reading the feature, I don't think this is something we need to add 
to the WiX toolset. It's pretty odd requirement and not necessarily what we 
really want people doing. It also seems easy enough to do outside of the WiX 
toolset with a custom executable, right?      From: Gonzalez, John

 Subject: Re: [WiX-devs] New user and request     Welcome, John!   First, 
you'll want to open an issue to track the bug or feature at 
http://wixtoolset.org/issues. That will get the issue on the radar to be 
triaged. At triage we (you're welcome to join, of course) decide what release 
the issue should be applied to. Based on that, you'll know what branch to put 
the feature into.   If you want to get ahead of the curve, I'd recommend 
picking the latest branch for the major version you are on. So, if you think 
the issue should go into WiX v3.x then you'd want to pick "wix39" (that's the 
latest available number for WiX v3 right now). If you want to target WiX v4.x 
then you'll want to pick the "wix40" (that's the latest available number for 
WiX v4 right now).     From: Gonzalez, John [mailto:john.gonza...@intel.com]

 Subject: [WiX-devs] New user and request     Hi all,   I just joined this list 
and am requesting an assignment agreement. I also have an initial question to 
go along with it; we use v3.7 and I have made the source changes locally for 
testing. When making changes on the trunk do I make them on 3.7 or the latest? 
If latest what is the difference between master and the others?   Thanks, JohnG
