[wix-devs] Daily build of WiX3 won't run on a different machine

[Sean Hall]

It has to do with the strong name signing. Long ago I submitted a PR to
make this easier but it was rejected:

> Thank you but it is not a goal to make it easier to build non-official
WiX toolset's to run on other machines. Instead, we'd like to encourage
developers to integrate their changes into official build. If official
builds need to occur more often we can address that issue.
