furfly's port of the 3.x e-commerce module to 4.x has been
released, wahoo!
It's definitely an alpha, not all the details are done, but overall it's
in pretty good shape.
You need two apms for this, one for e-commerce itself and one
called acs-geo-tables, which provides the geographical info
e-commerce needs. We decided to do this instead of using
acs-references, which has an uncertain future, or acs-places
which carries a lot of overhead[1].
The files can be found at http://www.furfly.net/downloads, or you
can point the APM at
http://www.furfly.net/downloads/acs-geo-tables-4.1a.apm and
http://www.furfly.net/downloads/ecomerce-4.1a.apm. They may
eventually make it into ArsDigita's ACS repository too, but I had
some upload difficulties so they're not submitted yet (their
system claimed it could not gunzip my files, for some reason).
We did this port as part of a client project; credit for the work
goes to Jerry Asher and Walter McGinnis. We don't "own" this
port; we will contribute fixes to it as we have them, and we
encourage others to do the same. The source will be under CVS
control at openacs.org when the OpenACS 4 CVS tree is ready,
and all changes should be run through the OpenACS project.
