USPS January 17 2016 rate increase

Does anyone (Ajeh/Linda?) know if the USPS interface to Zen Cart is going to change significantly enough to require a new version of the USPS rate calculator plug in module or will the last one continue to work with the new rates?

Thanks,
Debbie J.

This is being worked on and I hope to have some test code next week ...

Awesome! Thanks!

Came here to ask the same question, because USPS just sent me an email indicating various api changes. I figured you were already on it, I just wanted to be sure.

Any news on this? I just received this email:

Hello,
