This is primarily a bug fix release for the 2.2 series and will be the last release made before the 2.2 release series is finalized. They are currently in the process of certifying the payment modules included in this release which will be the only change for the final osCommerce Online Merchant v2.2 release planned in the coming weeks.No major features have been introduced with this release candidate as our development efforts are focused on the upcoming 3.0 release, but does include the following changes:

• Over 25 bug fixes and improvements
• register_globals compatibility for PHP 4.3+ servers
• Visa PCI conformance of accepting credit card information on the checkout confirmation page
