Managed <BootstrapperApplication/>

http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/authoring_bundle_application.htm

Meaning, you write a custom BootstrapperApplication using .NET (managed); 
rather than using a standard one like 
"WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense" (native, non-managed) or 
writing a native, non-managed custom BootstrapperApplication.

Well, I did not think so, but the first response through me off.  The answer 
told me it was use by Burn and that I was off the beaten path.
Imagine my surprise at that when all I wanted to do was install a prereq for 
may application.

There is some problem here with the nomenclature.  MBA??  I now (think
I) know it stands for Managed Burn A??  I don't have a clue what the A is for.  
I realize that all of this uses the BAL extension, but again, do idea.  The 
last BAL I knew was IBM assembler :-)
