Once someone voted, the poll choices became frozen.Christopher Painterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12167478740431444267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9537945.post-71261227442430358472008-01-29T05:45:00.000-06:002008-01-29T05:45:00.000-06:00The percentage indicates which fraction of all voters are using the particualr tool. For example, there are currently 34 votes. 12 of 34 (= 35%) selected SDK, 5 of 34 (= 14%) selected VS, etc.<BR/><BR/>I expect a significant overap in the following areas: <BR/>- Many people will use Orca, in addition to some real authoring tool, so they also vote for SDK.<BR/>- Many WiX users will use it's Visual Studio intergration, so they might vote for both. Other tools also provide Visual Studio integration.<BR/><BR/>I agree that there should be an option "other tool", and maybe also an option for repackaging tools.Stefan Kruegerwww.installsite.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9537945.post-40396181387608730242008-01-28T11:47:25.119-06:002008-01-28T11:47:25.119-06:00I didn't write the AddIn ( Google did ) but I'm guessing that it's `correct`. It adds up to 150% ( atleast right now it does ) so I'm guessing that means on average people select 1 1/2 tools.Christopher Painterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12167478740431444267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9537945.post-34491196925166005392008-01-28T06:43:00.000-06:002008-01-28T06:43:00.000-06:00HI,<BR/><BR/>I think that there is a "mess" in the voting numbers.

Tell me what you would add and I'll add it to the list of choices. I was going to put Stefan Krueger's entire list but it looked rather long and I only wanted to add a tool if it had a reasonible expectation of being voted for.Christopher Painterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12167478740431444267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9537945.post-34047544106048470812008-01-27T01:31:00.000-06:002008-01-27T01:31:00.000-06:00Windows Installer XLM ??<BR/><BR/>And where's "Other" ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
