They're definitely in Cass. Here's the link from APC dealing with Cass:

I think I heard the digital photo cut-off is tomorrow, maybe. I tried to jumpseat on FedEx a few months ago and my company did not have the digital photo yet so they wouldn't let me. Based on that I'd guess FedEx does have it already in place.

We'll know tomorrow then I guess <G>. I jumped on Alaska a few months back and they didn't have an agreement with FDX because of the digital picture issue, so I got on in the cockpit while a FDX guy was left behind.

Kinda...
I believe the cutoff is Sept. 26th or 28th. The TSA mandated the picture thing. FedEx has the picture requirement, but does not reciprocate with airlines that do not. For example, Delta is in CASS and so is FedEx. Since FedEx cannot see the Delta pilot's picture, no ride. And it goes both ways, so no FedEx on the Delta jumpseat as of now. That should all be standardized here next month. Hope this helps more than confuses.

So maybe it was Alaska that had the picture problem and not FDX. I thought the passports were supposed to get around that for a while. Oh well

Yes, you are wrong! FedEx was one of the first in CASS, and one of the companies that tested the picture id database part of CASS, IIRC!
