Default Re: X-Cart 4.2 released

I can add the following:

1. Bill Brewer (Altered Cart) has forgotten more about coupons and special offers than ANYONE at x-cart will probably ever know. Until Bill says OnSale is perfect with 4.2, no dice. Same for one page checkout. Same for search.

2. Jon Peters (WebsiteCM) has forgotten more about dynamic rewrites and SEO than most people know. DO we really think stock code can compete with a project that Jon has been focused on for YEARS?

NOT TO MENTION -- all the other mods from BCSE and WCM that are SPECIALISTS in the code they are modding... I know that BCSE will do a perfect job of meta page titles, keywords and descriptions, per page. Are we really getting this functionality of of the box?

We must weigh pros and cons. And the cons of 4.2.0 TODAY vs. a 4.1.11 install -- no argument. Let's see where 4.2.5 is in a few months (or even wait for 4.3) - That's my $.02
