The "standard" Open Source Web Shop is OSCommerce (http://
www.oscommerce.com/).
The only requirements it does not solve are
* it is witten in PHP
* it has its own database model
Hi! Recently I'm running a one-person project on oscommerce and the
deeper I get inside the code the more I see what a piece of ugly
written software this is... Each file is a mixture of HTML, PHP and
even SQL. There are no templates, no MVC nor other model, code is
buggy, unmaintened and uses PHP classes like tables. It's a software
that stuck in time five years ago... I would never do anything in
oscommerce again.
I guess that is the reason why Sean asked for something new
preferably without PHP.
In PHP it is much easier to mix everything than to use a clear MVC
concept (although
someone could argue that a single PHP script contains all M=MySQL,
V=HTML, C=PHP)...
Let's hope they find a solution that is better and does not draw too
much from the
development budget and time they have. Developing something new from
scratch would
IMHO also be a waste of resources and does not guarantee that it is
finished within
a reasonable timeframe (e.g. October where we all await new devices
to ship :-).
