Hello everyone,

I've been hacking on Google Checkout for fun (and hopefully profit) and ran into a few questions I was hoping someone could help me out with:
  1. First, I notice that 1.4 is in alpha, but I never saw a gold release for 1.3 (only RC2). Is anyone using 1.3 in production? Has it been stable?
  2. I've modified 1.3rc2 to find existing users based on email address and then link to those in the google_checkout table. (Instead of the previous behavior of creating a new account if a new user who wasn't logged in made a purchase.) Can anyone who knows more about Zen cart than me -- which is probably everyone here -- see any ramifications from this behavior? Has anyone else found a better way to handle it if an existing customer uses Google Checkout without logging in?
  3. The existing Google Checkout module did not subscribe a user to the newsletter if they selected the checkbox on the checkout site. I've added code to do so. Assuming the interest, is the 1.3 release still accepting patches, or should I sit tight and wait for 1.4 before making any major modifications?
  4. There also appears to be a bug in the code to update the number of units sold in the products table. My implementation always adds zero to the count. Is that a known issue, or did I jack up my copy while making these other modifications?
Thanks!
