17:41 paul anyway, i will hire him for at least 3 months, probably more 17:41 paul because I have a LOT of new RFP on my desktop 17:41 paul 2nd new : SAN Ouest Provence 17:41 rach very cool paul 17:41 paul Ouest Provence is a library really similar to Nelsonville 17:42 paul 7 branches, 1x00 000 items 17:42 paul an internal team to set up Koha & improve it (3 persons) 17:42 paul they have decided to switch to Koha 17:42 paul and have published an RFP for some help to do this. 17:42 paul I will answer to the RFP (with Linagora) 17:43 paul the best news being that they are 50km far from me :-) 17:43 paul 3rd new Koha users in the next days : 17:43 rach yay - so no 3 hr commutes for you :-) 17:43 paul yep 17:43 rach that is great paul 17:43 michael ... great news ! 17:43 paul * sociology CNRS library in Paris (migration almost ended) 17:43 michael Ouest Provence is http://www.culture.fr/PublicItems/bibliotheques/10188 isn't it ? 17:44 paul michael : you can search for the RFP on BOAMP 17:44 michael yes... but what means RFP on BOAMP ? 17:44 paul http://cboamp.journal-officiel.gouv.fr/ANN.DIR/1222/B00/200412220013B.HTML 17:45 michael ok 17:45 paul BOAM is official "republique francaise" public RFP 17:45 paul and BOAMP is their official publication (every day) 17:45 paul * Mathematic search library, in Marseille too 17:46 owen :) 17:46 paul what is interesting with them is that we will manage a SIP compatible self-borrowing bot 17:46 slef Session Initialisation Protocol? 17:46 owen Standard Interchange Protocol 17:47 paul owen is right here 17:47 paul it's a 3M "standard" 17:47 paul the actual standard being SIP2, but it seems it's close from SIP 17:48 paul and the CMI self-borrowing console is quite old, so SIP 17:48 paul that's all for major news. 17:48 paul ah, another one : 17:48 chris it would be good to work towards NCIP compliance 17:48 paul HDL will work on 2 things first : 17:49 paul * a new koha-fr.org webserver. 17:49 paul * the stat module, that is funded by EMN but still not here 17:52 paul anobody having something to add ? 17:53 owen Anyone hear anything from our 2.4 Release Managers? 17:53 paul no 17:53 paul and that's not a good new 17:54 rach they are in the southern hemisphere to aren't they? 17:54 owen Yes 17:54 paul yep, in Argentina 17:54 rach if they are - then I would think like here they are all on holiday 17:54 paul you're right 17:54 rach there is no one at work at the big institutions here for another week or more 17:54 paul iirc, i've seen a mail saying he will be back on jan, 8 17:54 rach so I wouldn't panic yet :-) 17:54 owen I don't think we've heard from them for a long time even before the holiday. 17:55 paul right, but that's not necessary a problem, as we were working on 2.2 17:55 rach but I can't overstate how if they are anything like here, you would expect to not get sense from them for most of Dec, and all of January :-) 17:56 rach School goes back here I think early-mid February, 17:56 paul the last mail from Emiliano was to congratulate me for the birth of Jérémie 17:56 rach and university not until nearly march 17:56 paul (oct 3) 17:57 rach that is a wee while ago :-) 17:57 rach but they are at a university aye? 17:57 paul yep 17:58 rach so here Oct/nov is very busy for university 17:58 paul probably he just forgot to warn us that he will be off for some months 17:58 rach as is end of year exams 17:58 rach then they have 3 months off 17:58 rach so is a bit slack of him, but doesn't necessarily mean he's run away :-) 17:59 paul yep 17:59 rach woo cool 17:59 paul ok, so we end here the virtual drink ?
