Thanks all, I decided to use plata for my project, since I feel it can be customized for my requirement much better than the other E-Commerce project (i might be wrong but still after evaluating most of the django ecommerce project this is what i felt). Matthias, thanks for developing Plata. Just starting the integration of Plata in my project and I hope you would lend some help if i get struck somewhere :) Thanks
