Answers.Text: In light of the conversation below, has this extension been updated for 4.6 or 4.7? The thread above said that you were hoping to have a plan for updating this extension in May. Or will it work in 4.6 anyway?

Answers.Text: Good question, we have not updated the extension and at this point we do not have plans to update it.  I would recommend using the iATS payment processor extension  (https://civicrm.org/extensions/iats-payments)   Sorry.

Answers.Text: @pkeogan-BackOfficeThinking Anum has an answer below that says you guys are working on a 4.6.x extension. I'm confused. Can you please clarify? We are looking at iATS, but are already Vanco customers for another product and would love to stay with one company for our transactions. Thanks!

Answers.Text: We are looking at 4.6x upgrade, but soon as possible is probably 2016.  I still recommend iATS as they are investing heavily in the CiviCRM partnership.

  <p>We will fix that soon and add the updated 4.4.x extension to CiviCRM Extensions Directory.</p>

  <p>However the phrase is "will work through 4.4". Does this mean this is a stable, PCI compliant version of Vanco's processor for 4.4? Or should I revert back to 4.1 of civiCRM in order to be stable and PCI Compliant? I was a little worried since the 4.4 version was not publicly available. </p>
  
  <p>Thanks for the feedback.</p>
