With high spirits and much excitement for the future, Lyle and I polished up and released Ubercart 2.0 today. Thanks to all those who took notice, and an even bigger thanks to the dozens of contributors who made the release a reality.
Features of the release should come as no surprise, as most people have been using Ubercart 2.x for some time based on the project's usage statistics and personal experience. In the final days, we did iron out issues related to file downloads, role promotions, product kits, and Views integration. We also paved the way for smoother European use in conjunction with the UC2 VAT project.
For those that are interested, continue reading for my reflections on the state of the Ubercart development process and code, including a community effort to realign both of these things on Drupal 7 with the Drupal 7 Ubercore Initiative.
The teaser... Ubercart, D7, Small core influence -> Ubercore (or, d7uc).
