I wanted to download Votive V3.. which I think I already have, but I was
installing on a new machine...

The install instructions for Votive here:
http://wix.sourceforge.net/votive.html  don't mention how to install votive
at all.  It only talks of prerequisites.

The download links at the side don't separate Votive from the other Wix
tools.  Clicking the Download V3 link goes to here:
http://wix.sourceforge.net/downloadv3.html

Where there appears to be a link to download Votive 3.0, but all three of
the download links there go to exactly the same URL, even though they refer
to three different products.  When you do go to the URL (
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=105970&package_id=168888)
you get a list of four files not one of which mentions Votive:
ProjectAggregator2-3.0.2211.0.msi.zip<http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wix/ProjectAggregator2-3.0.2211.0.msi.zip?modtime=1160560022&big_mirror=0>,
wix-3.0.2211.0-binaries.zip<http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wix/wix-3.0.2211.0-binaries.zip?modtime=1160605132&big_mirror=0>,
Wix-3.0.2211.0.msi.zip<http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wix/Wix-3.0.2211.0.msi.zip?modtime=1160559914&big_mirror=0>,
wix-3.0.2211.0-sources.zip<http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wix/wix-3.0.2211.0-sources.zip?modtime=1160559929&big_mirror=0>
.

Hmm.. what exactly do you do to install Votive V3.0?  If you start expanding
older releases you will find
Votive-3.0.2015.0.zip<http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wix/Votive-3.0.2015.0.zip?modtime=1155660246&big_mirror=0>as
well as the other products mentioned on the download page like
ClickThrough-3.0.2015.0.zip<http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wix/ClickThrough-3.0.2015.0.zip?modtime=1155660293&big_mirror=0>..
Maybe there isn't a new build of Votive, I start thinking...

So I attempted to install the MSI for Votive-3.0.2015.0 only to get a
message that a later version is already installed!  Searching through
Add/Remove programs yields no mention of Votive at all... huh?

So finally my eyes hit the last news item on the WiX front page...  which
basically says everything has been munged into one WiX3.msi.

So could someone please update the download page so there aren't three
separate links and it is clear that all of the products are included in one
download.

Thanks,

Scott
