Brandon: I think this is a good idea...

So, David had a thought about doing a joint donation to the Child's Play charity.

Personally, I think that's a stellar idea. I'd certainly be up for it.

Here is a link to the post in question.

Ready: For the weekend.

Brandon: WTF is with the Windows Installer

---

So, why does the Setup project creator in Visual Studio 2005 basically suck, and nobody can seem to write a decent tutorial on WiX so it doesn't seem incredibly complicated. Not to mention that writing custom actions in managed code is apparently a no-no. That makes doing custom actions rather difficult when the built in ones are rather lacking, IMO.

Sure I can use managed code to write custom actions when creating a Setup project in Visual Studio 2005, but the UI is quite limited, plus the progress bar is just random in how it goes, and I can't put more detailed information on the UI.

Anyways, I'm just ranting.
