Desktop

Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?

Having investigated the cost of this and looking at this compared to other things we could work on such as
#12
and
#7

  • we won't be doing this in the near term. Moving back out of investigation.

Not having an MSI for the Community edition is VERY disappointing news! And how is there a high cost to develop this?! You already have one for the more complex Enterprise Edition.

Trying to deploy the Leaky Vessels fix in an enterprise would be so much easier with an MSI.
