here is the answer I gave last time. Though I answered in the Us mailing list I believe that this does require some discussion on how to implement ups shipping outside of the US per their shipping regs. Unless I have missed something.
this will take a re-write of the ups code to look at the country, and some new flags for Air and ocean frieght to change the data sent to UPS. The documentation for this tool is now requires a shipping Account with usp to get the informations needed.
