Hi.

In bug tracker you can subscribe to receive notification when anything changed related to this issue

Will do that. Thanks

thanks all

i have uploaded abantecart on a localhost and will do the bulk of the work there,
make some notes, then on to the the live store

Yes, thats what I do. Do trial and error on localhost(I use WAMP), make note of what files to edit and then make changes on the live site.
Its better this way.
