[wpkg-users] [Bug 290] New: Support for windows nano werver 2016

[it.service.kultur at uni-hamburg.de]

Hi,
i am no windows server expert but i just read a bit about the new nano  
server and as far as i understand the concept, wpkg is not intendet  
for this kind of system as this is a headless system for server  
services and not compatible with standard windows applications.

Why would you need wpkg to run on this anyway? I would imagine that  
there is not much point because what should wpkg update on this? Or am  
i missing something?

If the nano server supports WSH why not run wpkg.js directly without  
any additional control service (wpkg client)?

Best Regards,
Nils
