Many people have asked what's new in WiX version 3. Here is a list of things that have already been done and things that are still in the works.

The old Votive3.msi has been renamed Wix3.msi as of builds >= 3.0.2120.0 to better describe the installer. It is the installation vehicle for installing the core WiX toolset and also Votive, ClickThrough, and other WiX tools.

A brand new version of Votive has been released in the v3 branch (builds >= 3.0.2120.0). Click here for a list of new features.

On the right you will now see a link to our Weekly Releases. The best way to stay current is to check there each Wednesday around noon PST for the latest build of the WiX toolset.

ClickThrough is a new tool built on the core WiX toolset. It provides a GUI to create simple MSI files that auto-update over an RSS feed.

The first official WiX web site is now online. Content is a bit scarce initially, but we expect to add a lot more in the near future.
