Definitely we want the doc topic, because not every change can be fixed by WixCop. Do we want the doc to be built from the WIP content or should we maintain the list in doc?

I was going to ask what was done for 2.x -> 3.0, but I guess DTF and Burn weren't a WiX thing back then. Maybe there should be a page in the help file for breaking changes in 4.0?

    Ahh, good point. Should those be a different document or should we
    expand the scope of this document?

    What about breaking changes outside of .wxs files?  Like the DTF
    namespace change, and the Burn interfaces?

        We did a bit of homework at FireGiant to track down the
        breaking changes made in WiX v4. I have to admit, I was
        personally a bit surprised how few there seemed to be. Anyway,
        I wrote down the results and submitted them in a WIP (preview
        here: https://github.com/wixtoolset/site/pull/33
        <https://github.com/wixtoolset/site/pull/33>).

        We'll be undertaking the work to update WixCop.exe to fix
        these breaking changes over the next few weeks. Our hope is
        that makes it easier for people to try WiX v4.0 out with
        larger codebases.

        If stuff was missed, let me know here and I'll make sure the
        document gets updated.
