Ok, well we are doing a LOT of development for those three areas  
right now.

Angela, from CivicSpace, is the 4.6 maintainer for OG and  
LoginToggin.   We are continuing to do a lot of e-commerce for  
development both on 4.6 and 4.7 for http://goodstorm.com and other  
customers.   Here is the spec of 4.7 Organic Groups we are doing for  
BuyBlue: http://drupal.org/node/59082.  I am writing up a table of  
all the OG functionality as we speak in fact!  OG will probably hit  
20 contributed modules in a few weeks if we keep up at this pace.   
OG_views is going to open a lot of possibilities.  E-commerce is  
probably at or near about 40 contributed modules now with two major  
additional specs in the works.

We check our modules into Drupal CVS and there is a lot of very  
active collaboration going on with both Organic Groups and E-commerce  
right now.  So we are happy to help scope needs in public so that we  
can encourage the consulting list to become a great collaborative  
tool for the community.

Cheers,
Kieran
