Last time I diff'd the manuals things hadn't changed all that much (compared
say to the Inferno ones which were hopelessly out of date), and
it's good to browse a book, but dealing with the shipping differences was
a pain with the other suppliers. Also, Google Checkout had this nice little micro-format
system that was really worthwhile. Amazon Payments had one set of problems,
and Paypal had another, so it didn't seem worthwhile. It wouldn't be outlandishly hard
so if there really is some interest I might find time to do it.
