OK, good to know. I was looking at his site and he just doesn't say
on there explicitly that it's open source, just that it's "free".

On more than one occasion I've seen closed source freeware utilities
change to non-freeware once everyone was using it and depended on it.

I'm glad to see that isn't the case here.

So, I withdraw my suggestion unless something comes up where WiX would
be demonstrably better and not just different.
