I just had a chat with Vladimir from CS-Cart and he told me that 1.3.5 will be released TOMORROW!! I’m happy being able to bring this announcement to you all.
The rumor mill has been hot for a long time yea…
Here are some features that will be included in the next anticipated release:
Myspace integration
Admins can now have their own avatar
Store Manager source code was lost during a harddisk crash, so you’re back to MANUAL upgrade only
Google Adwords interface
Your very own accounting software integrated in CS-Cart (throw that quickbooks somewhere else)
There are going to be some changes in the license aswell, this was unfortunately inevitable.
There will no longer be a lifetime fee, it will be replaced by a monthly fee of $49.95 for access to future upgrades
You are not allowed to modify the source code without CS-Cart written permission
Upgrades can only be made by CS-Cart team and must be requested in the helpdesk
You must address all members of CS-Cart team as either “Sir” or “Madam”

from a business perspective i understand that they want to have control however its going to cause to loose a lot of business. and alot of overload in their stafff.
personally from my 16 years of business experience the more control you try the more control you loose.
We just bought the software last week with the understanding that this was a one time fee w/ thirty days of support. Ether this goes in to affect only on new purchases from here forward or I think we may be bailing out. As good as this software is it has some glaring deficiencies and I don’t feel that I should have to pay for to be resolved.
Bad move[/QUOTE]
Okay, I just saw the April fools bit. I was P!$$ed. I hope that others read the thread all the way through, unlike myself.
