There is also Jalia http://jalia.sourceforge.net/.

One thing that can make these things awkward is that different countries have different regulatory needs which could make this article a can of worms.

I think Jalia development halted a few years back. AFAIK it's a dead project.

Regulatory issues are indeed a pain since every country introduces their own issues.

If you buy a doughnut in a coffee shop in Toronto, does PST apply? Well, it depends on what *else* you buy.

On the other hand, tracking proper creation of invoices, transit vouchers, and the like for Greek customers is an equal nightmare.

Hence the question of how extensible and customizeable a solution is.
