To celebrate Australia Day, we're pleased to announce the release of version 2.0 of the Fontis Australia Extension for Magento. This is a major update to the extension, and includes new functionality to support the flexible generation of data feeds for three comparison shopping sites (Getprice, MyShopping and ShopBot) for member merchants.
In addition to the feed generators, there are some incremental improvements to the rest of the extension, most notably in the BPAY and direct deposit functionality, which now have their own order statuses to help administrators determine at a glance which payment method was used to place an order.
We hope these changes will continue to provide Australian online retailers with commonly desired functionality for running a Magento website in Australia. We've had great feedback on the extension so far, and are keen to hear any comments or suggestions that members of the community may have for future versions.
We should also mention that in true Australia Day tradition, version 2.0 is best enjoyed with a cold beer and a snag fresh off the barbie! Happy Australia Day everyone.

Will this plugin be updated to work with Magento 1.4.0.1 (stable)?
We've released a new version of the Australia extension which fixes a minor issue and has been tested against version 1.4.0.1. Older versions of the extension should still work with current Magento versions without any problems, although we can't guarantee that this will be the case for all websites. Try it out on a test copy and let us know if you run into any problems.
