[laureon]

Perhaps the of the features below could be implemented:

1.) Further support for exporting orders into various accounting package formats.

- MYOB (US/Canada etc.)
- Peachtree (US/Canada etc.)
- Sage Line 50 (UK)

2.) The implementation of real time shipping calculations within the UK

- Citylink
- RoyalMail
- Business Post
and other popular couriers. Presuming all will have APIs for integration.

3.) Inventory tracking with a back order facility, where products that are out of stock can be ordered for the customer when back in stock.

4.) Import facility for wholesale / bulk prices

5.) PDF format for invoice creation. I believe this can be implemented without installing components on a web server. This would be useful for multipart invoices and the customisation of an invoice.

6.) Auto-resize thumbnail images. Rather than just 'reducing the appearance of thumbnails in x-cart, whilst retaining the file size of a more larger image file, perhaps actual thumbnail files could be dynamically created through x-cart. With smaller image file sizes and consistent sizes, image quality and page loading time will be reduced.

7.) Perhaps a routine to sync Accounting data e.g. Quickbooks local data with X-cart data?

8.) Couple of UK Payment gateways:

- Natwest fastpay
- HSBC

9.) Option to greet customer formally or informally according to their choice. e.g. by title and surname or forename.

10.) The ability to add user defined custom fields to registration forms. For example adding a 'where did you hear about us list menu', further text fields etc. without having to 'hack the source code. Possibly functioning in a similar way to 'the extra fields for the products table.

These are mainly new mods, but would be good features of the new x-cart branch.
