In July we will let you know how to participate in X-Cart 4.3 beta testing (the exact date depends on results of alpha testing our Q&A staff are performing right now).
I will be monitoring this topic for a couple of working days. So, if you have any questions on 4.3 feel free to ask here.

so the AOM - RMA modules as well as the fancy categories will be available as an upgrade to 4.2.1?
i would also just like to double check that if i am still running a standard 4.2.1 cart with no aditional 3rd party mods, will my altered templates be affected when doing the upgrade?
