what i was addressing was havingwhat seems a much smaller problem of replacing theexisting tags (which basically put items in a cart andcheck it out) be replaced with say a database +functions that do the same thing so no existing codeneeds to be redesigned around it. plug and play forforward movement of our own existing systemsIf you think this is important and do not want to do it=20yourself, maybe you can find others who agree that this=20should be done, then one of you might take on the=20responsibility of doing it -- or each of you convert one=20tag/context.Or perhaps you can collect a bunch of contributors (similar=20to what Dan Strong asked me about the other day) then hire=20someone else to do it for you.
