IANAL but you only need to publish the WiX source code if you change it. When you use an official build we publish the code for you here: https://github.com/ wixtoolset

Subject: [wix-users] Licensing question when deploying Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.dll

Hello all,

I'm working on a commercial application and considering deploying Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.dll with my app because I'm using it to retrieve some information about some msi files.
The only usage I do for now is to open MSI database to read the production version.

What does MS-RL license say about this ?
I'm planning to deploy Wix license file  alongside with my application but do I have to publish the source code of the file using Wix ?
What do you think ?

Thanks,
Nicolas
