Developed the Amazon affiliate interface to sell CWC products on Amazon.com. 
This interface was XML/SOAP with real-time inventory and price changes.  Orders
also came from Amazon pre-paid, and these orders had to be entered into the CWC
order entry system.  This was not supported in the order entry system, so this
was a large integration and functionality change project.  I also was the project
