Probably because the future is in hosted third party web services
that do all the work for you? ;-)
If you look at things like Shopify and Blinksale API it's obvious
that they offer 2 well defined things:
1. Extremely easy to understand setups for beginners
2. Extremely easy to understand APIs for advanced developers
So the better question would be .. why reinvent the wheel again? ..
But does anyone know what ever happened to the OSCommerce
development? Someone should take it over and "Cake" it :-)

Okay it's an old story but remains one that still needs re-writing.
It's 2007, a time of web standards, skinnable CMS's, and fancy
screen effects, so why do the available shopping cart solutions
still look like phpnuke?
Any updates to the semiannual PHP-talk question " My customer needs
a shopping cart solution. Is there anything better than X-Cart?"
Real-world experience only, please. Is there a best-choice today if
you're not using Joomla but have site(s) that need an integrated cart?
