Our last meeting was very short because we had no new issues to triage. Today's meeting isn't terribly long but we had a bunch of issues to triage, though only a few we could take action on.

WiX Online Meeting #168 Highlights
Thursday, April 25, 2019
Today's meeting is perhaps the shortest we've ever had. There were no new issues to triage and only a brief announcement from Rob. I will definitely spend more time preparing these highlights than the meeting itself took so in a philosophical sense, are they still merely highlights?

Celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the WiX Toolset
Friday, April 5, 2019
Today marks the 15th Anniversary of the WiX Toolset's release as Open Source. The impact of this "relatively insignificant geekware tool" (Time, 10 May, 2004) over the last decade and a half is profound. The largest software companies in the world use WiX to create installation packages for their flagship products. When FireGiant launched nearly six years ago, we offered enterprise support for WiX and more companies—of all sizes, across all industries—adopted the toolset. In addition, there are countless Open Source projects that have MSI-based installation packages thanks to WiX. We are proud of the work we've done with WiX over the years, but the future excites us even more.

WiX Online Meeting #165 Highlights
Thursday, March 14, 2019
Though I personally prefer 24-hour clocks and little-endian day-month-year formats, it's hard to resist the nerdy joy inherent in the date 3/14 at 1:59PM. I might say it's just me but it's not just me -- Pi Day is a real thing, even just for other nerds. Anyway, enjoy the day even if contains no pies, pizza, or calzones (technically still pies).
