10:32 frederic hello
10:31 paul_p   slef: what is your goal in opposing the trademark ?
10:26 slef     paul_p: the filing fee to oppose a trademark is about the same as the price of a small laptop.

02:14 chris    it must the middle of the night there eh?
02:14 chris    i am
02:13 slef     I guess that's no-one then.
01:51 slef     hi all - who's alive?
23:22 decuir   in the page the opac how to the user ask for a book
23:19 decuir   but i have a new dude
23:19 decuir   sorry
23:19 decuir   hello
21:25 gmcharlt poor man's way of hashing strings?
21:24 chris    :-)
21:24 chris    probably because someone went what does this do, oh i dont know, ill just use it for something else
21:24 chris    originally it was boolean, then somewhere in 2.0/2.2 it became linked to shelving control numbers
21:24 ryan     i guess i'll just unlink from the fwk rather than push for a db change.
21:23 ryan     i've got a 2.2 upgrade that's missing their shelving control numbers though, since they are now booleans :/
21:22 chris    http://www.wcl.govt.nz/about/branches/central/colln.html
21:22 ryan     i though i saw a bug on changing the column definition for one of those, but i can't find it.
21:22 chris    yeah most stack rooms arent open to the public
21:22 chris    if stack is set, its in the stack room (shelved under the same scheme as the rest of the library)
21:21 gmcharlt ryan: perhaps akin to 'closed stacks'
21:21 ryan     hmm, sounds the opposite of US 'stacks'
21:21 gmcharlt so patrons have to request them to be fetched?
21:21 chris    where fragile/out of print items live
21:21 chris    nz libraries often have a 'stack room'
21:20 chris    yes or no
21:20 chris    it was a boolean
21:20 chris    i have no idea why its linked to shelving control number
21:20 ryan     and why , if it's linked to 'shelving control number' in marc21 fwk, it's a TINYINT ?
21:19 ryan     anyone know what functionality items.stack is intended to implement ?
21:17 liz      and probably wouldn't be worth their time/money to sue about it
21:17 liz      doesn't mean you'll get caught though >.>
21:16 liz      ah, strictly speaking though, you are making a copy of their IP when you are scanning the cover... and you are using that in an unmodified form (so not a derivative work) on your website, technically without the rights holder permission. It's definitely a fuzzy area.
20:51 decuir   thanks
20:51 decuir   and i how to to plublic them
20:50 decuir   i have many tesis if i scaned is legall
20:49 decuir   in this case is a library local
20:49 decuir   yes thank's
20:49 gmcharlt from everybody's point of view except Bowker's, no doubt :)
20:48 atz      that would be a great fix.
20:47 gmcharlt I think ultimately solution is publishers playing along or legal precedent to allow open data licensing of cover images
20:47 chris    *nod*
20:46 atz      yeah, of course the most immediate use might be ppl copying images from amazon/google/other OPACs
20:45 owen     Yes..."themselves"...that's the ticket.
20:45 atz      that would be like saying you can't put pictures of the book you're trying to sell on your ebay listing of it.
20:45 atz      i don't see any legal constraint on libraries using a cover image they scan themselves.
20:44 gmcharlt yeah, although hopefully publishers will accept that letting libraries scan cover images increases use (and purchases) of their books
20:43 liz      neat enhancement idea though.. potentially copyright problematic
20:43 atz      Koha has no "internal" cover images
20:43 atz      yeah, with current code, it can't be done.
20:43 owen     But that's just speculation
20:42 owen     I can think of ways it might be possible... for instance creating a fallback local directory for the javascript image loader
20:41 owen     decuir, there's not a way to do that
20:40 decuir   i want to scaned a image`s book
20:39 decuir   how to insert a image that no appear in amazon
20:39 chris    heh
20:38 si       still, at least my ears weren't sunburnt :-)
20:38 si       aye
20:38 chris    heh saw yourself si?
20:38 si       chris, that's not a pretty photo
20:37 decuir   i come back
20:37 decuir   hi
20:36 gmcharlt atz: how else to drown one's sorrows?
20:35 atz      gmcharlt: sounds like a cubs game
20:35 chris    http://www.beigebrigade.co.nz/gallery/Beige-Thunder-in-2008/DSC03200
20:34 chris    :)
20:33 gmcharlt the beer part sounds familiar
20:33 chris    sitting/standing in the sun drinking beer and singing stupid songs
20:33 chris    http://www.beigebrigade.co.nz/gallery/album16/Russ_distracted
20:33 chris    but this is the best thing about cricket
20:32 chris    so currently india has 311 runs and 5 people out
20:29 chris    11 players on a team, you bat in pairs, so you need 10 outs for the side to be out
20:29 chris    otherwise its a draw
20:29 chris    (and you have to get the team out)
20:29 chris    and its combined total at the end of 5
20:25 chris    so this is indias first bat
20:25 chris    each team bats twice
20:25 chris    (they are capped at 5 days now)
20:25 chris    its a 5 day match
20:24 chris    1 day
20:24 gmcharlt don't know how accurate this is, but http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_was_the_longest_cricket_game_ever_played
20:24 liz      <- is totally gullible
20:23 liz      rofles
20:23 owen     and liz: I'm kidding. I have no idea.
20:23 gmcharlt owen: gotcha
20:23 owen     gmcharlt: I was referring to "311/5"
20:23 liz      good lord
20:23 gmcharlt owen: you've never rooted for one team to knock another out so that your home team can go to the playoffs? :)
20:23 owen     13 weeks!
20:22 liz      how long has the game been going on?
20:22 owen     As if I needed proof I don't understand cricket.
20:21 chris    india 311/5
20:20 liz      <insert completely inappropriate statement here>
