Does anyone know what features will be added to the next release of ModernBill? Do they have a list somewhere?

Basically, I am looking for information on the "roadmap" for ModernBill to see if it is heading in the same direction I want. (if the features I want to see are going to be added in the future, etc..)

Thanks!

There is a section in their forums called Announcements which discusses the new features (v 4.2 is in Beta), but you have to be a customer to access the forums. What features are you interested in?

1) Dual currency.

2) Easier-to-understand setup/configuration.

etc... I have a list, but I guess I am wondering what are the features. Is the new feature information secret or can you share it with me? When is their expected release date?

Part of my problem is that if I'm going to be buying "vaporware" (expected features), then it becomes comparable with WHMAP. If MB is publishing a date for delivery, then they become accountable.. and that's a good thing then what WHMAP is doing.

Please clarify!

1) Customer clicks "order now!!!!" button.

2) If not passed into the signup form as a URL value, signup form asks user what currency they want.

3) Signup form goes through process using specified currency.

4) If currency USD was selected, then billing is through gatewayXXX. If currency CAD was selected, then billing is through gateway YYY, etc...

Should have support for at least two currencies, including seperate reports, ability to specify proper pricing for each currency, etc..
