<0halr9000> you guys know what to do with the whole ## stuff right?
<4Vern_Anderson> ## to ask a question
<4Vern_Anderson> ## is there an app list like chocolety
<14ScriptingWife> ## did he talk about targeting yet?
<7JimBirley> ### PS 3.0
<7BrianK> ##will I be at a disadvantage if I don’t have SCCM? Â If so what functionality do I lose?
<7BrianK> ##Could I use Group Policy as a targeting mechanism if I don’t have SCCM? Â Or would that be messy?
<4Vern_Anderson> ## And you could train a helpdesk person to creat packages
<7JimBirley> ### does the product called Tanium play in this space? Â Peer-to-Peer distribution model based tool.
<6Rich> ## Why does most of your documentation use Lotus Notes as the example application?
<6Rich> ## Does the tool inspect MSi files and list which properties can be specified on commandline?
<6Rich> ## Does the tool inspect MSI files and list which properties can be specified on commandline?
<6Rich> ## Are there any plans to automate the process of creating the Deploy-Application.ps1 scripts via a GUI, rather than asking the user to modify them by hand?
