InfoWorld: Microsoft goes open source with WiX tool

InfoWorld: Microsoft goes open source with WiX tool "Anyone who thought Microsoft's settlement on Friday with long-time nemesis Sun Microsystems seemed surreal were in for another shocker Monday, when the Redmond, Wash., software giant made some of its source code freely available on the Internet.
Microsoft released the code on SourceForge.net, a Web site that provides free hosting for open source software development projects. The Microsoft tool set, called WiX, for Windows Installer XML, is intended for building Windows installation packages from XML source code."
