Hi Bill,

Thanks for the link to your FedEx Web Services code. I haven't been able 
to sit down with it until now and have a few of questions.

1. Aside from obviously changing Bottlenose::Shipping to some equivalent 
for my system (Vend::Ship perhaps), are there any other parts of your 
code that are specific to your setup and would need to be changed?

2. I would assume that I'd need to save the code off as a .pm file and 
place it somewhere in my interchange directory, such as 
interchange/lib/Vend/Ship/FedExWS.pm - is this correct?

3. Once I have this module in place, how do I go about using it? I'm 
familiar with utilizing UserTags, but not entirely clear on how 
something like this would be integrated into a shipping method.

Others are welcome to answer too, of course. Thanks to anyone for 
pointing me in the right direction to get this working.

Cheers,
Tom
