Seems pretty interesting; I like that idea actually. I plan to join the open
source community in a very short time, and I mean everything I do will be based
on WiX, at least for setup. Everyone else can go away; we don't need
commercial installation programs anymore.

NAnt support is broken in the release version of WiX 3.6 and as support for
NAnt will be dropped from 3.7 I am guessing the problem won't be fixed.
Fortunately there is a simple fix, create the following registry key and it
should start working:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
In the project page, you need to select bind files to get them included inside
the WixLib.
