But it is possible to start services using MSI / WiX. I know. My installation
does (I'm assuming it works for me because while the service is a .NET one, it
is not installed in or dependent on the GAC).
I guess what I'm trying to say is that there is merit to the ServiceControl
element. Unfortunately, it doesn't apply equally for all choices of runtime
environment. :-(
Regards,
Richard

Well, then what do you think, why is there a ServiceControl element with start
on install functionality? Should not it be completely removed to prevent people
from thinking that they can accomplish it with MSI/WiX? It seems to me like
people just simply need more than the current features.
