David,

Are you aware that Verisign is phasing out Cybercash in favor of their own
payment gateway system.  The following is an excerpt from a letter dated
8/7/01:

     Important CyberCash customer announcement: 
     Our records show that you are currently registered to process 
     payments through the CyberCash payments gateway.

     As you know, VeriSign recently acquired CyberCash, and is 
     presently working to integrate the CyberCash CashRegister 
     service into the VeriSign Payment Services (VPS) system. We plan 
     to modify the connection from the CashRegister service to 
     redirect your transactions to the VeriSign PayFlow payment 
     service. When this effort is completed, credit card transactions 
     from your Web site will be processed through the VeriSign 
     system. We intend to make this transition as simple and seamless 
     for you as possible. When the integration is complete, you will 
     begin accessing the VeriSign PayFlow Manager for administration 
     instead of the CyberCash E-Commerce Services Manager.

     These modifications are currently in pilot with a small number 
     of selected merchants. Upon completion of the pilot, we plan to 
     roll out this conversion to our entire merchant base. We 
     anticipate this process to begin sometime within the next six 
     weeks. You will shortly begin receiving a series of schedule 
     updates for migrating merchants.

We're still using Interchange 4.6.x and haven't migrated to the 4.8.x branch
yet.  I was personally holding moving our production stores over to 4.8.x
until we had to make the payment gateway switch.

- Randy
