Plans for 2.0?

Post by Plug » Tue Oct 24, 2006 8:15 pm

Thanks for all the work on the 1.x MSIs. With the new NSIS installer for v2.0, have you looked at making an MSI installer for this?

If not, where can people who are interested in helping, start looking?

Excellent news!

FFCE has been a godsend where I work and I look forward to being able to roll out a 2.0 version of it. Thanks!

3 cheers!

Just a question, when packages are built are they designed with a normal XP "user" in mind (not power user, admin, etc.)? I'm not sure there's a possible way to do this, but I found in 1.5 I had to create some extra empty registry keys (HKLM/Software/mozilla.org and the subkey Mozilla) and give users permissions to write in them to get (in this case) Java to work without having an admin run something with java first (which then creates the keys and allows the user read).

Being as the registry settings are all in HKLM, I'm not sure if you can assign permissions on install or anything that would allow users to create subkeys/values so like I said I'm not sure there's much that can be done with the package.

Other than that I give my kudos again on a solid package and excellent development team. At least the little things like this I'm able to work around with Active Directory :)
