I need to have FedEx shipping for my store, but it's not clear to me what the status of the FedEx module is.
As the thread at http://www.ubercart.org/forum/support/574/uc_fedex states, the documentation implies that FedEx support is core. A response from Ryan (9/7) says FedEx now in bazaar, but I don't see it in the repository at http://bazaar.ubercart.org/ubercart/alpha/ubercart/.
That thread has several attached versions of the module, the most recent one updated on 9/12. Several code corrections have since been posted in the thread; have these since been incorporated, if so, where is the corrected module?
Another thread, in the Contributions forum (http://www.ubercart.org/contrib/620), has several versions of uc_fedex, last updated on 9/12. How do these versions relate to the ones posted in first thread?
Is anyone actively working on this module?
Since I need FedEx shipping, I would be willing to support it myself, but I'm not going to start in on it if it's being actively worked on by someone else, and I don't want to start with an outdated version that has known bugs.
What are the known bugs? There is only one post in issue tracker (by me), but that has not been addressed. Other issues seem to have been brought up in the forums, but it is not clear which if any have been fixed.
I have a suggestion:
Edit pasts posts to remove all duplicate versions of uc_fedex. Instead, add a link to the "official" version, whether it be core or a contrib. This will eliminate the confusion about which version of the module is the latest and greatest.
Fix documentation to clarify whether FedEx is core or contributed, and add links to it if contributed.
