[wix-users] Open Source is must be EveryWhere (MBA using .Net)

[Rob Mensching]

WiX v4 will have support for .NET Core based BAs. In WiX v3, it'd be easiest to use C/C++ to use "only open source code".

Curious: Why do you need "to use only open source code"?

Hello to all!

As you know, the .NET Framework is not open.
However .Net and .Net Core are.

We use WIX 3.11 to create installers, pack them into a bundle with a custom MBA that is built using .Net Framework and WPF.
We have received an important request recently: to use only open source code.
We need to create a work plan for how we achieve this goal for the next year.

So, is it possible with WIX nowadays? How?
Are there any examples of implementation and documentation?
Do you have any suggestions when it will be possible?

Thanks for your hard work!
