Setup Matters

WiX v3.11.2 is a minor security release of WiX. If your application directly references Microsoft.Deployment.Compression.Cab.dll or Microsoft.Deployment.Compression.Zip.dll to decompress cabinet or zip files to a folder, you should upgrade to this release. Otherwise, feel free to stay with WiX v3.11.1.

Today we got to talk about security vulnerability that was reported to FireGiant. In fact, it was the only new issue we had to triage. So let's get into it.

Today's 175th WiX Online Meeting happened exactly six years and one week after the very first meeting back on 22 August 2013. We were all so young back then...

With contributor Sean now living 15 time zones away from Rob and 12 away from me, today's meeting was the first we held at 4pm Pacific instead of our (formerly) normal schedule of 9:30am. We don't have a firm schedule for future meetings and might even alternate to try to find meeting times that let more people participate live on Twitch. Stay tuned to the wix-devs mailing list and the WiX Toolset Twitter account for announcements.

Today was, as predicted twice, the first WiX Online Meeting held via our replacement for Skype for Business: We're now streaming on Twitch. Recorded meetings will continue to be posted the WiX Toolset YouTube channel.

Today was the last WiX Online Meeting...to be held via Skype, that is. I'm aware I've said that before but this time I almost certainly mean it. Unless I don't. Things change. You'll still be able to find the recordings on the WiX Toolset YouTube channel.
