USPS Rate & Service Descriptions Change

Hi,
Any idea when you will be updating the rates & service descriptions for USPS international shipping in the shopping cart?
It is my understanding that there are now four categories for weight-based shipments overseas:
INTERNATIONAL MAIL
1. First Class Mail International (formerly "Air Letter Post")
2. PMI - Priority Mail International (6-10 day) (formerly "Global Priority Mail")
3. EMI - Express Mail International (3-5 day)
4. GXG - Global Express Guaranteed (1-3 day)
There is no longer a "Surface Mail" service.
There is now a Flat Rate Box service for international shipments.
All Domestic Priority Mail packaging including the flat rate envelope and boxes can now be used for international shipping
PMI Flat Rate Envelope (9.5"x12.5" - 4 lbs. maximum):
Canada/Mexico $9.00
Overseas $11.00
PMI Flat Rate Boxes (two sizes - 20lbs. maximum):
Box One: 11-7/8 x 3-3/8 x 13-5/8 inches
Box Two: 11 x 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 inches
Canada/Mexico $23.00
Overseas $37.00
Thanks!
Rich
