Beating on a dead horse... (about Paypal.com integration). 

I'm finally ready to start implementing!   Thank you Dan Browning for pointing out that you can't install to two servers simultaneously.  At least this is part of what I derived from our conversation and you were a life saver.  Without this tip, I could have been pulling my hair out for ANOTHER two months...  Please correct me if I'm wrong but I found bin/makecat to work MUCH better when you're not trying to force the catalog to install to a separate secure server.  

Anyhow, now that I'm starting setup, I discover that there are six payment options standard in the system.  Unfortunately, my favorite option, PAYPAL.COM is not one of those.  Exercising due diligence, I have searched the archives for approximately one hour but have not come across a solution.  Found a lot of folks asking the question in the fall of 2001, and a couple of promises, but did not find a message that implied a solution has been found. 

So... what is the status on the Paypal Intergration?   I have traditionally accepted lots of credit card payment types, as long as they come through paypal.com.   Perhaps I should be looking at other options that don't require membership or is a Paypal.com option available and I just haven't seen it. 

TIA,
