CoApp may actually use MSI for packaging, but MSI doesn't have dependency management.
The purpose of CoApp is to make open source applications easily installable on Windows. I'm thinking similar to how you can install the GnuWin32 tools but more robust. So maybe a better description would be like Cygwin but more integrated into the Windows ecosystem.
