Over in Carine's Official osCommerce Blog, devosc raised a good point for discussion: I would even suggest that an 'osCommerce Committee' be formed where these members are elected by the community and they are the community's collective voice to whom the 'team' must respond or be responsible to. There are some problem areas, one of [...]

I recently did a stocktake of all my Domains and found a few that I forgot I had bought. If you're anything like me, you think of a good name, register it, then forget about it. Anyway, this Domain is the name of a popular TV show – I originally was going to make a [...]

As well as these "add-on" opportunities, I'm also interested in hearing from anyone who would like to create a stand alone business selling [...]

Someone on another Forum has found this site: www.goldkey.com – basically these people create a keyword laden site free of charge (based on your Domain Name).
