[This message has been brought to you via pear.php.net.] Hello, As you may know, Amazon will update their API authentification protocl in date of August, 15th. Do you know if PEAR Services/AmazonECS4 package can handle this ? Do i need to use another PEA package ? witch ? Thank you for your help.

First of all, I'm not the maintainer of the Services_Amazon package, I am the maintainer of Services_Amazon_SQS. The package page (http://pear.php.net/package/Services_Amazon) says The Services_AmazonECS4 class is deprecated and will cease to work after August 15th. This is probably because Amazon renamed the service from "E-Commerce Service" to "Associates Web Service". There is a new class, Services_Amazon that you should use instead. It looks like it does support signed requests. I don't think the API is identical, but it should provide the same functionality so all you'll have to do is pear upgrade Services_Amazon. Cheers, Mike
