Has anyone written a MSI bootstrapper for Guidance Automation Too...

Has anyone written a MSI bootstrapper for Guidance Automation Toolkit (GAT)?

Basically I want to go to the Setup Package properties in Visual Studio and hit the Prerequisites button and have Guidance Automation Toolkit listed as a prerequisite that I can choose from.

I don't mind writting one and posting it if no one has already written one, but I will probably need someone to post what the InstallChecks will be for GAT.

Thanks!

There's no such boostrapper that I know of...

I have a bootstrapper that I have written now, but I am unsure as to what I can ship with it.

The easiest thing to do is to embed the GAT/GAX msi inside the bootstrapper so that it can copy it to the bootstrapper folder. However, I do not know what the licenses behind doing that are.

If there were a direct link to the installers, I could use that link in my bootstrapper and have it download if needed, but I don't see a direct link to the gat/gax msi files.

Anyone from Microsoft have any ideas?
