[support] ecommerce & drupal 7

[prothero]

I agree with Gordon about using Drupal 7. I decided, about 2 months  
ago that it would probably be at least 6mo, or more before I would  
want to use Drupal 7. I'm a newbie and don't want to deal with early  
bugs and the lack of books to lead me by the nose. Drupal 6 has  
several good books to help you get started. There is also a wealth of  
great modules for v6 that are also in early stages for v7.
Good luck,
Bill
