Tony, this is an amazing amount of progress! Well done, and congratulations to everyone involved!

Now we need multi-site inventory tracking, with the ability to add locations (locations inside the warehouse). And we need automatic feeds to multiple channels, ebay, Amazon, etc.

Then we will really have something. I can promise you this, with these two features, X-Cart would be the number one product on the marketplace. Companies like Channel Advisor charge thousands of dollars per month for feeds, and other charge thousands of dollars per month for inventory managment. I just spoke with a client that is spending over $10k/mo. on just those two features. Of course the market will also need to realize that we have this once once we do.

It's great to see XC 5 growing in features.

Throw multi-store into the core as well as you will really draw attention from users of Magento

@totaltec, @BBM_, thank you guys for support!

Mike, eBay integration is already here: http://www.x-cart.com/extensions/addons/ebay-integration.html
Product feeds is also a good module for that purpose: http://www.x-cart.com/extensions/addons/product-feeds.html
Amazon is already planned.

As for multiple-site inventory tracking, do you have any good services we need to integrate X-Cart with?

@BBM_, do you mean multi-vendor or multi store-front by saying multi-store?

Adding multiple products to cart at once.
Great for when you have a recipe to build something or a How-to the person can just click the link and 25 items are in the cart ready to go.

Do you know Carrie and BCS Engineering team has already created such a module for X-Cart 5?
