[wix-users] Automating MSI building

[Walter Dexter]

Is there anything confidential in there? 

Are the files small enough you could include them all and pick at install?

Or put the config file in a cab that you deliver with the MSI, and have a single stock MSI?

Or even pull the config down from a server at install?
