So to confirm, the thought is, this can be installed now, and provided no bugs have been introduced in developing the changes (and no significant changes are made on the USPS side), that the above plugin could be used on a production server now and when January 27th comes along (and assuming no additional updates are necessary/identified) that this plugin and all of the associated settings could remain in place until the next change is needed?

I realize I have indicated a lot of ifs and possibilities, but I also understand things happen.

Providing there are no more changes to the code, this should be the final solution ...

From what I have been testing, this also appears to be working right now with the Production Server as well ...

Other than the new features, which cannot show until USPS updates the Production Server, this appears to be fine for both ...

Testing the new features does require using the Test Server ...

Any results of good or bad on both the Production and Test servers would be helpful to the testing ...

The update installed successfully on my test server and I've successfully pulled domestic Priority and Priority Express as well as Priority Intl and Priority Express Intl quotes (for various countries/continents). I'll play with a couple more configurations, too.

I know that it's been this way for a while, but shouldn't the default for "Retail" vs. "Online" pricing be "Retail"? I never really paid attention (shame on me) to that setting until testing this new version and saw that the price for shipping a USPS Priority Flat-Rate envelope was $5.05 instead of $5.60!

Half want that to be Retail and the other half want Online so either way I lose ...

No, either way you win because you've satisfied 1/2 of the people!

Thanks for the response; at least I'm aware that I'll want to change this setting from its default!

This will be corrected in the final release ...

When will the FINAL release be available??

[Ajeh]

Most likely today or tomorrow ...

It will be posted in the Announcements ...
