MS has committed to opening up C# and placing it entirely under a libre
license, and Mono is beginning to incorporate some of MS's libre code in
order to improve Mono's ability to run .NET apps.  (Mono doesn't support
WPF, WCF, and some other important .NET technologies.)

Once Mono is able to host/run WiX, which is also libre, then there'll be
a fully libre ecosystem for creating MSIs.

If your objection to MSI is on purely libre grounds, this may change
things.  If your objection is that it's an awful packaging standard, well...
