> ICDEVGROUP is happy to announce the release of Interchange 4.9.4. It
is
> the best Interchange available today.
> 
> Feature additions are too numerous to mention. Some selected ones:
> 
>   * New survey and mailforms generator allows you to point and click
>     your way to a poll, survey, or feedback form including an
>     optional "wizard" look and feel.
> 
>   * Payment settlement functions for post-auth and void are now
>     supported in the UI, and the order status update functions are
>     easier and more visually pleasing.
> 
>   * Forum feature allows commments and reviews by users.
> 
>   * Tabbed-display tag allows easy creation of tabbed entries on a
>     page -- portable for Mozilla, MSIE 5.5+, and Opera 7.
> 
>   * New UI look and feel. This is a taste of what is to come;
>     some very professional HTML design is still ongoing, and
>     Interchange is not done yet in that regard.

stable

THe
> alpha status is because the UI interface is changing so rapidly. The
> customer-facing code is very stable and in most ways is better than
> the stable 4.8.6 branch.
> 
> All people using the 4.9.3 nightly builds as a basis for their
> development should standardize on this version and not update
routinely
> from the nightly_build tree. The next round of nightly builds and CVS
> checkouts will start to be unstable in the UI area, as a major update
to
> page logic and look-and-feel is in progress.

Wow, this is definitely a MAJOR update.  Thanks to the IC Core group for

revision and testing out all the new toys :)

Thanks again,
