06:32 paul I don't have any more ideas. 06:32 russ oh dear 06:32 paul :-( 06:32 paul I contacted 3 guys, and all of them declined. 06:32 paul not yet. 06:31 russ paul do you have a speaker to do the first talk yet on day 1? 06:31 chris right 06:31 paul but link this with some authorities, and they may be convinced. 06:31 paul with tabs they should be a little troubled 06:30 chris paul: ill try that on their test sites and they can take a look and see if they like it 06:30 paul (hi again i mean) 06:30 paul hi russ. 06:30 chris and specialist libraries 06:30 chris 2 public libraries, lots of smaller ones 06:30 russ 2 public so far 06:29 paul how many are there in NZ ? 06:29 chris public library I mean 06:29 chris we should have the third NZ public in a few months .. they are converting at the moment 06:29 paul (for marc=on i mean) 06:29 paul that's not a problem I think 06:29 chris they both use Full Acquisitions 06:28 chris ill demo it for them and see if they like it 06:28 paul & no indicators or any other marc things. 06:28 paul they will just see descriptions. 06:28 chris they are both running 2.2.5 now 06:28 chris ill try that 06:28 chris ohhh 06:28 paul but with MARC=ON & hide_marc=ON they won't see any MARC tags/labels. 06:28 chris Rangitikei only went live last year, the second public library in NZ 06:27 chris they dont want to see the MARC .. they are happy its there in the background, but they dont want to see it 06:27 paul the first & 2nd libraries using koha isn't it ? 06:27 paul no way to switch to MARC=ON ? 06:27 chris HLT, and Rangitikei District Library 06:27 chris 2 06:26 chris yes 06:26 paul chris : do you still have libraries with MARC=OFF ? 06:26 chris im hoping to do some commits tomorrow, I have some code from Tumer to merge in and commit 06:23 chris the joke i was going to make wont be funny without seeing it :) 06:22 paul but I know who they are. 06:22 paul nope 06:22 chris have you ever seen monty python paul?

03:20 paul osmoze : great, waiting for your registration at conference.mai06@koha-fr.org => someone at Ineo take care of the registrations. 03:19 paul + few other libraries coming with 2 ppl. 03:19 russ :-) 03:19 osmoze paul, c est bon, j ai l autorisation pour venir :) 03:19 paul if we get full, i'll request that only 2 or 3 come ! 03:18 paul + some libraries like SAN Ouest Provence plans to be *5*. 03:18 paul and I'll request a larger room for 3rd 03:18 paul because there are plenty of places free for May 2nd. 03:18 paul mmm, no. 03:18 osmoze bonjour 03:17 russ do you want me to put up the "Full House" sign on the website and take down the registration form? 03:17 paul i'm waiting for the list from Ineo, but i'm "afraid" that the 30 places won't be enough... 03:17 russ yes it has generated alot of interest 03:17 russ awesome 03:17 paul at least for May 3rd => we may need a larger room than expected... 03:16 paul the KohaCon will should be a success... 03:14 paul hi russ 03:14 russ hi paul 16:33 griffjon thanks guys 16:33 griffjon with that success I'm outahere 16:33 griffjon alright 16:33 griffjon aha! that worked 16:32 griffjon lemme try adding it 16:31 griffjon right... I think I must be blind then 16:31 chris libraryname i think 16:30 chris too 16:30 chris oh thats a system preference 16:30 griffjon that's way more effort than I'm ready to expend right now -- I'm just trying to change the libraryname 16:30 chris eg /usr/local/koha/intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/new_templates/en/ etc 16:29 chris its pretty tricky, if you put another set of templates in the directory, they will show up in the list 16:29 kados well, those are the only two templates by default 16:25 griffjon do I need to add a system preference? the only template pref I saw was npl or default 16:24 kados preferences 16:24 griffjon say, for example, LibraryName? ;) 16:24 griffjon er, stored 16:24 griffjon one last question for the day -- where are the template variables store? 16:01 kados but I'm swamped in a migration involving authorities 16:01 kados wish I had time to do it today 16:01 kados both you and CCFLS want that change made 16:00 kados bummer 16:00 kados yea, just saw your email 15:57 owen kados: turns out those changes to Auth.pm weren't what we were looking for after all :( 15:33 griffjon aha! 245$a 15:30 griffjon I can't even find any more title records to use 15:29 griffjon sigh 15:10 griffjon for bulkmarcimport, which title field gets used? I've tried 130$a and 240$a and neither are importing 14:58 griffjon I have just a basic access db of title, author, and a few notes 14:55 kados unless you need to move things around 14:55 kados if you have a marc dump you don't nee to use marcedit 14:54 kados sure, and we'd love to build them, but noone's sponsored such a set of tools :-) 14:53 griffjon BTW, a set of tools to import data into koha without having to learn marc would be great for us non-librarian types 14:53 griffjon I'm creating my marcimport using the marcedit 14:52 griffjon I was thinking 100$a was just the last name, and $c was first name (or the other way around) 14:46 griffjon ahhhh 14:42 kados use bulkmarcimport ;-) 14:42 kados you shouldn't try to import directly into Koha 14:41 kados (those are the three main ones) 14:41 kados 700$a are additional authors 14:41 kados 100$a is the lastname,firstname 14:41 kados 245$c is the author's name as it appears on the item 14:41 kados if you have MARC records there are several author fields 14:40 kados well, depends on what you're trying to do 14:40 kados ahhhh 14:40 griffjon ?) 14:40 griffjon does Koha not care about author first v last names? IT seems to want it in one field (should it be last, first 14:40 kados so really, everyone deserves credit 14:39 kados it's been a huge joint effort 14:39 kados thx ... 14:28 owen Congratulations kados 13:55 kados I think paul has though, and reports it works nice 13:55 kados I haven't 13:54 owen Have you tried it? Looks interesting, but the interface is javascript-heavy and buggy 13:54 kados griffjon: bulkmarcimport.pl will automatically delete data from the database with the -d option 13:53 kados owen: probably 13:50 griffjon fingers crossed.... 13:50 owen kados, do you know who worked on holidays.pl? The script says "-TG" is that Tumer? 13:49 griffjon lemme clear out my tables and try that 13:48 kados :-) 13:47 griffjon tab completion + frustration can be bad! 13:47 griffjon ok. :( 13:47 griffjon yup 13:47 griffjon heh 13:46 kados cause that won't work at all, that script does nothing 13:46 griffjon erm, lemme look 13:46 griffjon ooooh, now that I may have done! 13:46 kados griffjon: you sure you didn't get confused and use misc/bulkauthimport.pl? 13:46 griffjon trust me, I tried and tried many different ways to use it 13:46 kados griffjon: you sure you followed the instructions carefully? 13:45 kados griffjon: well, it's _the_ import script, and it's what everyone else uses :-) 13:45 griffjon It parsed a subset of my records, but they never appeared anywhere 13:45 kados griffjon: misc/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl 13:45 griffjon bulkmarcimport wasn't doing anything for me 13:45 kados griffjon: it's in the misc directory 13:45 kados griffjon: use bulkmarcimport.pl instead 13:45 kados griffjon: you imported into the reservoir 13:45 griffjon I still have to go through manually and assign ISBN/barcode numbers before they become "active" but I expected that step 13:44 griffjon I used MyODBC Connector for MYSQL to export my books table (reformatted to match the Koha biblio table) from MS Access, then an update query to import it from the temporary MySQL table into biblio and biblioitems 13:43 griffjon the whole marc export/import was a wild goose chase effort for me 13:43 griffjon but I think I got my data in 13:43 griffjon ow that hurt 13:10 owen So in a couple hours New Zealand will come online. Otherwise mornings until about 10:30 or 11 are good for catching France 13:08 griffjon -5 I think 13:08 griffjon EDT 13:05 owen What's your time zone griffjon? 12:58 griffjon that is something I enjoy about Koha -- it's one of the most scattered and international OSS projects I've seen 12:57 griffjon ahhh 12:56 owen that cuts out 2 of 3 possible continents of tech support 12:56 owen It's the time of day when Europe is off work and New Zealand isn't up yet 12:55 owen griffjon, sorry you're not getting any feedback 12:44 griffjon they show up neither in the catalog admin tool nor normal book lookup 12:44 griffjon I made sure at least one had an ISBN number, but I can't find even it anywhere 12:44 griffjon OK, seriously -- the Catalog: MArc Acquisition reports all my records imported -- where do they go??? 12:09 griffjon I take it back, it claims it's imported all my records, but they're nowhere to be found. They don't have ISBN numbers, (though the marc import tool doesn't complain) -- is that causing a problem perhaps?
