SO NOW we have some (many) bug fixes, PLUS a re-invented X-Payments (and the integrated XPC) PLUS a major security overhaul bundled into one.

Dammit Jim, all I wanted was 4.5.4 bugs to be fixed.

THEN let me deal with the security.
THEN let me deal with upgrading for new features.

I have only said this 1.61803 times.

X-Cart is crying about their revenue stream, yet, they do this kind of shit that will prevent most merchants from "upgrading". This company is not being run by merchants. As an engineer, I can appreciate the goal of making it better, making it faster making it sexier. But as a merchant, my ultimate job is to make my customers happy and make it easy for them to spend money on my products.

Whatever.
