3693 - Thanks. I'd like to know how burn works more so I'll download the
source and start to study it. If left to me won't be a 3.9 feature it sound
like. :)
Layout - I was looking for something I can use from wixstba with a command line
like layout. I would use layout but that would mean the offline .net 4.0
installer and other packages that are already installed would be downloaded.
I'd like something that my app can download in the background (with user's
permission) and then prompt user when ready like windows update has. Less
disruption to the user as they don't have to wait for packages to download.
I see bug 4190 (http://wixtoolset.org/issues/4190/) has a bundle self update
feature with a "checkupdate" command line switch. Can you download and then
choose to install latter? Taking a look at codeplex it doesn't look like it
does.

- layout feature
3693 - is a pretty big feature. You'd want to understand all the bundle related
stuff in Insignia to understand how to read bundle metadata. Then you have to
plumb the new element through the compiler to the binder and use the metadata
to create the package. It basically requires knowledge of everything except
custom actions. <smile/>
Uhh, I though a BA could already decide to not layout a particular file if
desired. This isn't an engine feature.

How hard would issue 3693 be to tackle? I'd like to start contributing to
wix/burn since we're using it quite a bit. Don't want to byte off more than I
can chew.
I also have another feature I'd like to add to burn in regards to -layout.
Right now layout downloads all files. I'd like to have an option where it only
downloads to files required for the particular computer it's downloading to.
I'd like to use it in my App to download updates in the background and then run
the install offline.
