Is it possible to create custom actions for Windows installer using .NET (preferably c#) ?
Has anyone done this yet, or know of examples of how to
do it ?

From what I have seen with the Installer Projects of .NET, it looks like CA's are going to move into the actual files we are installing and be called through that InstallUtil.exe file.
As for C#, I kind of doubt it, however you could easily write an unmanaged C++ Dll for a CA, but that is exactly the same as a DLL written in Visual C++ 6.0
If C# somehow allows a standard Export, you can probably do it, otherwise, I would say no.
