A re-invention of the wheel? How so? You must not have tried to do e-commerce on WordPress....because then you would know that it is currently a pain. Maybe this is why DukaPress is getting a modestly less-than-bad reception as seen here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/dukapress/stats/ and here: http://dukapress.org/blog/2010/07/22/dukapress-enters-the-wild/ I would argue that running a Magento shop is probably out of reach for the less tech savvy amongst us, don't you agree? DukaPress is built for those people. DukaPress is built for "a user who simply wants an online Duka"! We are not part of any collection of 'blogs'. We are a blog trying to market a piece of software that we built and believe in; a piece of software that we believe solves problems that people have. If you visit www.dukapress.org you may notice that it is not a 'blog'. Thank you for your comment. Untruths? A re-invention of the wheel? How so?

Having played with DukaPress it seems to me to be a re-invention of the wheel. And Magento is not a nightmare to use as suggested here, the only nightmare could be osCommerce or probabaly Drupal/Ubercart. Probably for a user who simply wants an online Duka DukaPress is rght but we know that they is much more invovled. A classic example of getting traffic to a blog/ a collection of related blogs....Kenyan way of course. Interesting post but i find some untruths.
