The Wix toolset provides the building blocks for MSI development, aka setup builder.
Its been a while watching the various incremental builds coming out for Wix 3, but now we are at the RTM the beginning for 3.0! Over this past weekend it has been marked RTM , the 3.0.5419 build of WiX v3.0 was declared the final production build.
