Windows Installer 4.5 beta 2 - coming soon (and a chat too!)

Hello everyone! First off, I wanted to let you know that I have re-joined the Windows Installer (MSI) team as a Lead PM, so you all will be hearing a lot more from me in the future <grin>

I have a few exciting announcements to make today:

  1. I know you all have been wondering what has been up with Windows Installer 4.5, and I am pleased to announce that we plan to release Beta 2 within the next few weeks. If you would like to access the beta program, please read Robert's prior posting on this topic. There will be an announcement posted to the blog when the Beta 2 is available. Your feedback on beta 2 is welcomed and also critical in this stage of our release, as this is our last scheduled beta before we RTM.
  2. We have also scheduled an MSDN Technical Chat on Windows Installer 4.5 on April 3, 2008 at 10:00 AM (Pacific). If you have not participated in these chats before, they are a great forum for you to interact directly with members of the team! Click here to add the chat to your calendar so you don't miss it!

Please stay tuned to the blog for more exciting announcements coming soon ...

    Hey MSI team, I didn't exactly understand the wording used in http://blogs.msdn.com/windows_installer_team/archive/2007/10/01/what-happened-to-windows-installer-4-1.aspx. So do you mean that you meant to do major changes in 4.1 but couldn't? Are there any minor changes in MSI in Vista SP1? MSDN states that MSI in Vista SP1 adds "multi-package transactions and embedding the user interface of a child Windows Installer package inside a parent installation session".

    Hello all, and thanks for leaving feedback! Anonymous: Looks like there may be some incorrect information in the documentation and I'll have our writers correct it. Vista SP1 just contains bug fixes. New features will be in our MSI 4.5 relese (check out the chat for more information!) Someone: Unfortunately, these are not our technologies. The Windows Update team has a blog at http://blogs.technet.com/wsus/ ... I would suggest trying that one out.
