commerce 7.x-1.0-alpha3

Alpha 3 includes various updates to unify language and fields across the user interfaces, with a much improved order edit form that is actually useful now (using vertical tabs, no less). The customer profile reference widget was improved to actually be usable on order edit forms, but it still needs a little bit of love to avoid creating duplicate profiles when it's not necessary.

We also fixed currency handling in relation to the different types of Price field widgets and managed to get every currency defined with much better currency formatting thanks to das-peter. He also helped get our Entity API and Rules integration a little more up to date with more issues pending review in the queue. : )

Work begun last release cycle on the Payment system was pushed forward, with a lot of work done to support credit card payments on-site. A proof-of-concept module was released in the form of Commerce Authorize.Net that you can use as a guide to developing integration with other payment gateways.

The pièce de résistance, though, is the vastly improved Add to Cart form. While it was working fine for single-value product reference fields in the past, multi-value product reference fields were little more than an afterthought. They simply listed the products referenced by title in a select list and did not support displaying product fields in the context of the node. This has all been fixed! And the peasants rejoice!

Referencing multiple products will now cause the form to default to the first product referenced. This default product's fields will then be displayed in the node as if it were a single-value product reference field. If options on the Add to Cart form are changed, the new default product is detected and the product fields on the page will be updated to reflect the new product's fields. Additionally, instead of just listing out all the products referenced in a single select list, the form distills field data from the various referenced products into select lists for user friendly "attribute selection." These fields are dependent, too, so only combinations of attributes that are actually available on referenced products will appear. In short, this is magic, and it is powered all by the Drupal 7 FAPI using its awesome #ajax property.
