08:40 CGI562         hello house
08:41 CGI562         has anyone seen charmlt today?
08:41 CGI562         please, i need to speak to someone about koha
08:42 CGI562         I want to know exactly how to load marc record on koha because when i tried what charmlt told me it was giving me broken link
08:42 CGI562         please someone help me
08:43 CGI562         i need to fix this as soon as possible
08:43 CGI562         i mean today
08:46 kf             you mean gmcharlt?
08:47 kf             we need more information to help you
08:47 CGI562         ya
08:47 CGI562         thanks
08:47 kf             which marcflavor is your system?
08:47 kf             you need valid marc21 records for koha
08:47 CGI562         ok
08:47 CGI562         what
08:47 kf             or unimarc
08:48 kf             depending on your installation
08:48 kf             did you try staged marc import or bulkmarcimport?
08:48 kf             what error message do you get?
08:48 kf             which version of koha are u using?
08:48 kf             for gmcharlt - its a bit early in us
08:49 CGI562         Koha 3.0.2 stable version for ubuntu
08:49 CGI562         sorry, I was just trying to put my url(tag 856) to link my local books
08:50 CGI562         but I always receive broken link
08:50 CGI562         like http://localhost/e-books/vbook.pdf
08:51 CGI562         kf?
08:53 CGI562         hello kf?
08:54 kf             ok, so yo already loaded records but have problems with linking?
08:54 kf             can you give me an example of your links?
08:55 kf             we have working links in our opac, i can compare to yours
09:03 kf             ok
09:03 kf             hi hdl
09:10 Amit           heya kf
09:11 kf             hi Amit
09:19 CGI562         kf, I have a pdf file in this directory e-books in document root (/var/www) since I am using ubuntu and I wish to link my record with a pdf file inside this. this is the url http://localhost/e-books/vbook.pdf
09:23 kf             hm
09:23 kf             not sure this will work
09:23 kf             or it will only work on your server
09:24 kf             if you cant access the link in your browser
09:24 kf             you cant access it from koha
09:24 kf             I think you should use your domain name or ip in the url
09:58 kf             we have problems with search + icu and alpha - can somebody help with some tips what to check? already deactivated most search functions (query stemming, fuzzy etc.)
10:36 martinmorris   good morning all, can anybody help me with a minor niggle in my koha installation?  i'm set to single branch mode, but the staff login screen still offers 'My Library' and 'Biblioteko Butler' (the actual name of our library) in a drop-down box?  Can I get rid of that?
11:37 martinmorris   good morning all, can anybody help me with a minor niggle in my koha installation?  i'm set to single branch mode, but the staff login screen still offers 'My Library' and 'Biblioteko Butler' (the actual name of our library) in a drop-down box?  Can I get rid of that?
11:37 nahuel         hmmm
11:37 nahuel         In libraries configurations
11:38 martinmorris   in  Administration?
11:52 kf             martinmorris: you cant get rid of it by configuration - I think the singleBranch syspref does not change that
11:52 kf             but it should be no problem
11:53 kf             its only staff login and both options have the same effect
11:53 martinmorris   oh it's no problem at all, I just wish it wasn't there :)
11:53 martinmorris   thanks kf
11:53 kf             I think you could add something to the template to take singleBranchmode into account
11:55 martinmorris   i might have a poke around but i was merely curious
11:57 kf             someone else alpha-testing ? we have problems with search, for example can only search for kw when adding kw: to the search term
11:57 kf             problem occurs with normal indexing and with icu
12:14 Ropuch         Hello nengard
12:14 nengard        hiya
12:19 kf             hi nengard
12:19 Ropuch         nengard: I came across your article in which you're saying that the librarians who never switched ILS  are affraid of changes
12:19 Ropuch         Hi kf [;
12:19 kf             hi Ropuch - sorry :)
12:19 Ropuch         nengard: but I can't find it
12:19 Ropuch         kf: you should'nt be ;-)
12:20 CGI562         kf
12:20 kf             yes?
12:20 CGI562         u didn't solve my problem
12:20 nengard        Ropuch - um .... what article?
12:21 nengard        I don't think I ever said that in an article ...
12:21 CGI562         i didn't get u right
12:21 CGI562         I still can not link up my record to my pdf book
12:21 kf             I dont think localhost links will work
12:22 kf             have you a link that works in your browser?
12:22 kf             can you post an example 856-field?
12:23 nengard        Ropuch, all of my presentations and publications are listed here: http://www.web2learning.net/publications-presentations
12:24 CGI562         856 ## - ELECTRONIC LOCATION AND ACCESS    3 Materials specified e-books on Digital Library    a Host name mathematicalscience.edu.ng    d Path /home/project/Desktop/e-books    f Electronic name Digital.pdf    k Password project@2009    l Logon project    o Operating system ubuntu    p Port 8080    q Electronic format type pdf    u Uniform Resource Identifier http://mathematicalscience.edu.ng/e-books/Digital.pdf
12:26 CGI562         It goes to this link but reports fatal erro 404 broken link
12:26 kf             is your opac accessible?
12:27 CGI562         yes
12:27 CGI562         do you see anything wrong with opac
12:28 kf             can you give me a link to this record?
12:28 CGI562         kf?
12:28 kf             a link to your opac?
12:29 kf             http://mathematicalscience.edu.ng/e-books/Digital.pdf is not working in my browser
12:29 kf             so it cant work in koha I think
12:29 CGI562         sorry, it is an intranet site, you may not access it
12:30 kf             is the link shown in your opac?
12:30 CGI562         yes
12:31 kf             we use less fields than you do
12:31 kf             we only have u for the url
12:31 kf             and display text (x? not sure about that one)
12:31 kf             I dont think koha can actually do something with the other values
12:33 CGI562         is gmcharlt there now?
12:35 gmcharlt       hi CGI562
12:35 kf             ok, need to get back to patron import anyway bbl
12:40 CGI562         gmcharlt, the other time u instructed me to set my 856 tag $u to something like this  http://mathematicalscience.edu.ng/e-books but I always receives broken link eroor 404? pls, what can I do?
12:40 Ropuch         nengard: thanks!
12:43 shamas         hey
12:43 shamas         i want to know about marc 21
12:43 shamas         from where i can get help
12:43 shamas         and how to install marc for windows
12:44 gmcharlt       CGI562: I assume that link works when you test it in your web browser directly?
12:45 gmcharlt       shamas: http://www.loc.gov/marc has a lot of information about MARC21
12:45 gmcharlt       if you're completely new to MARC, read the tutorials linked from that website first
12:46 shamas         ok thnx
12:46 magnus         CGI562: when I try to look at http://mathematicalscience.edu.ng/ i am told the server can not be found. are your sure that is the correct address?
12:49 gmcharlt       kf: re searching, is your test OPAC accessible from outside?
12:50 kf             gmcharlt: I think no, but I can perhaps change that
12:51 kf             gmcharlt: let me check with my colleagues
12:51 gmcharlt       kf: alternatively, email me your Zebra configuration files
12:51 gmcharlt       though I suspect it may more likely be due to some recent changes to C4/Search.pm
12:54 CGI562         gmcharlt, it didn't work, maybe there is something wrong or there is another way of going about it?
12:55 gmcharlt       I think the first thing to determine is whether http://mathematicalscience.edu.ng/  is in fact the correct URL - it may not work (yet) at all, regardless of whether you're following a link from your Koha catalog or putting in the URL directly
12:56 gmcharlt       and it may be up to whoever is setting up your server and network to add mathematicalscience.edu.ng to DNS
12:57 gmcharlt       if you can put up a screenshot of what you see when you try to follow such a link, we may be able to help you better
12:57 CGI562         gmcharlt, it is an intranet site so it cannot be viewed online
12:58 kf             gmcharlt: i fear its Search.pm. we patched from 3.0.61
12:58 gmcharlt       hmm - I read again and see that you're getting a 404 error, so DNS problems are not an issue (at least from within your intranet)
12:59 kf             gmcharlt: collegues are still at lunch - zebra configuration files - records.abs etc?
12:59 gmcharlt       so it may simply be that some work is needed to configure the webserver to serve things like http://mathematicalscience.edu.ng/e-books/Digital.pdf
12:59 gmcharlt       kf: right
13:00 kf             gmcharlt: ok, colleague must be back every minute now, I will tell him and thank you!
13:02 gmcharlt       kf: are you working from a dev-mode install for your alpha testing?  if so, try creating a new branch and git revert the following commit:  eb6b10f8c91 and see if that fixes the immediate problem; if not, try reverting earlier commits to C4/Search.pmm
13:02 gmcharlt       I'll be testing that myself as well
13:04 kf             gmcharlt: sorry, no dev install, we test-patched our standard install (a clone from production server)
13:04 kf             gmcharlt: can you reproduce problems in search?
13:04 kf             with search - sorry
13:05 gmcharlt       actually, a little more info might help - OPAC or staff, advanced search or the search box?
13:05 kf             everywhere :(
13:06 gmcharlt       ah, no searches work at all without manually appending kw: ?
13:06 kf             gmcharlt: mom, I will check and give you more information
13:07 kf             gmcharlt: some things still work - I think it was barcode (retesting now), but free text search seems to be broken everywhere
13:07 Ropuch         I'm gonna test 3.2 this weekend as sson as I get my new laptop - should I get it from HEAD or test the one from alpfa tarball?
13:08 gmcharlt       Ropuch: up to you, but my recommendation is to do it as a dev-mode from a git clone rather than the tarball
13:08 Ropuch         gmcharlt: fine by me :)
13:08 gmcharlt       to checkout the 3.2-alpha version itself, do a git checkout v3.02.00-alpha from the git clone
13:08 kf             gmcharlt: opac (simple search): only isbn 3* and call number r* give me results
13:09 chris_n        g'morning
13:09 kf             gmcharlt: can you point me to the patch that needs to be reverted on git?
13:10 gmcharlt       kf: I'm not having any problems doing an OPAC simple search on title, keyword, subject, etc. in my 3.2 install
13:11 Ropuch         gmcharlt: I just  want to avoid sending wrong-version patches
13:11 gmcharlt       Ropuch: ah, if you're planning to patch, then work from HEAD
13:11 Ropuch         gmcharlt: I hope I'll be able to ;>
13:11 gmcharlt       cool
13:11 kf             gmcharlt: oh :( so we need to find out what our problem is. only isbn, issn, call number seem to work, title, keyword, author etc. not
13:12 gmcharlt       kf: so rather than jump to conclusions, Zebra config + info from the OPAC apache log should help track this down
13:12 chris_n        gmcharlt: searches appear to work fine here running over the alpha
13:12 kf             my collegue told me that there were no errors in the logs
13:12 chris_n        but I don't think I'm running zebra with an icu(?) config
13:13 gmcharlt       and if you can send me a copy of your C4 and opac CGI directory, I can compare it against alpha just to make sure that there wasn't some problem when you applied the patches
13:13 kf             we patched from 3.0.61 - which we will need to do later too. perhaps this is part of our problem
13:13 gmcharlt       yeah, right now the ICU config is definitely on the list of things to test
13:13 chris_n        gmcharlt: is that a better configuration for zebra?
13:14 kf             gmcharlt: its not icu atm - he told me he reconfigured it to be standard search
13:14 gmcharlt       speaking of ICU and diacritics, I'd love it if you or someone else could point me to a good sample of German MARC21 records
13:14 gmcharlt       kf: so it affects both ICU and standard config? hmmm
13:14 kf             atm it seems so, perhaps we missed some stupid little thing
13:14 gmcharlt       chris_n: yes, ICU to handle character normalization is better
13:15 kf             gmcharlt: lets discuss that - there are some things to consider about German MARC21 records
13:15 gmcharlt       speaking of which, chris_n, is there much in the way of Greek and Hebrew in the Foundations catalog?
13:15 chris_n        I know jdavidb was having issue with searching on  a system with zebra in ICU
13:15 kf             gmcharlt: bt I can sure send you examples
13:15 chris_n        gmcharlt: very little atm
13:15 kf             icu is not working with some search sys prefs
13:15 gmcharlt       kf: thanks
13:15 chris_n        gmcharlt: more spanish
13:15 kf             I told him that and he turned some of them off - told me it works better now
13:20 chris_n        kf, gmcharlt: cait was helping jdavidb the other day with zebra ICU search problems
13:21 * jdavidb      looks around for owen, and hides.
13:21 chris_n        jdavidb: did you get your zebra ICU/search issue resolved?
13:21 owen           It's okay jdavidb I'm not really awake yet
13:22 jdavidb        chris_n:  ran a reindex last night, with one little change to the icu chain; gonna test here momentarily.
13:22 * chris_n      holds his breath ;-)
13:22 kf             i am cait ;)
13:23 chris_n        lol kf :-)
13:23 kf             no joke
13:23 jdavidb        Seems to be working; I'm not getting as many results as I was on the production server, which has fuzzy on, but what I'm getting looks *REAL* good.
13:23 jwagner        kf, that split personality is really going to get you in trouble....
13:23 jdavidb        And diacritics appear to be working like I want.
13:23 chris_n        kf: I believe you; its just funny
13:24 kf             jwagner yesss... dont know which to choose yet
13:24 chris_n        jdavidb: any chance you can switch to the latest head and try it?
13:24 jdavidb        Not on that server.  The customer's health and nerves are fragile enough already.
13:24 chris_n        hehe
13:24 kf             jdavidb: fuzzy was on here and seemed working, turned in off now to investigate our problem after patching
13:24 nengard        okay  - my job this AM - add the patron card documentation to the manual using the tutorial chris_n gave me yesterday !!
13:25 * chris_n      runs and hides ;-)
13:25 gmcharlt       why is everybody hiding from everybody else in this channel today?
13:25 nengard        hehe
13:26 jwagner        gmcharlt, because the Finger of Doom is pointing at them???
13:26 jdavidb        chris_n, I'm gonna be spinning up a couple of instances with new HEAD here in the next day or two; I'm thinking of doing (at least) one with ICU indexing; it's so darn good with diacritics, I'm thinking of making that our stock installation mode.
13:26 chris_n        nengard: did my response to you email explain?
13:26 nengard        no doom - at least not for chris_n - he already walked me through everything :)
13:26 nengard        chris_n -yes!! waiting to see if they tried to make the font smaller
13:26 chris_n        nice
13:27 jdavidb        owen:  When you wake up, I hear you're having deranged hold-prio issues.  I hope I can help; I've had occasion to work with that.
13:28 nengard        bug question for gmcharlt - or anyone - do we still want someone other than the person who patched the bug to closeit?
13:28 nengard        clost it?
13:28 nengard        i have many bugs i reported and patched and i could close - but i haven't cause i'm the one who wrote the patch :)
13:28 gmcharlt       nengard: more that the original reporter should close it
13:28 nengard        okay - well that's me :)
13:29 nengard        I'll clean up my bugs after i do the documentation update
13:29 gmcharlt       sure, it would be great if somebody else tested and closed self-reported, self-patched bugs, but I think the original reporter closing them is more reasonable to expect
13:29 nengard        chris_n - i do need something from you :) you said the label and patron card help files didn't make it into your patch - so if you have those, can you submit them so i can use them and improve upon them?
13:30 nengard        well - everyone who has HEAD installed - if you could go through the budgets sections and make sure I caught all of the language changes before i close that bug it would be great - if not, i'll close it and open a new one if anyone finds something i missed
13:30 CGI562         gmchart, I 've test this on my laptop that has no koha just to see if apache can open the link and it works. I think what happen is that webserver is redirecting request to koha document root. Do you know the koha document root?
13:31 gmcharlt       that is purely dependent the mode you used when you installed Koha - you have the check the Apache config
13:32 chris_n        nengard: I'll get those off shortly
13:33 nengard        thanks!!
13:34 owen           jdavidb: Here's the kind of thing I'm finding: http://koha.pastebin.com/mf0501
13:34 owen           http://zivotdesign.com/examples/holds-priority-problem.png
13:37 jdavidb        Two problems to cope with, owen--cause, and cure.  cure is easy; I wrote a script to clean up the mess, and reorder the holds in the order they were placed, which I'd be happy to share; it's copied a fair bit from some bits of C4::Reserves.
13:38 owen           jdavidb: We used to have a similar script, but it was for 2.x and never got updated. Is your script general-purpose enough that it can be committed?
13:38 owen           Something for /misc perhaps?
13:38 gmcharlt       +1
13:39 jdavidb        As to cause, I found a problem on the rendering of that table with a duplicated TMPL_VAR; those things are picked off in an array by the pl script, so one array was twice as long as it should be, with each entry twice.
13:40 owen           And here I thought it was gremlins.
13:40 jdavidb        I don't know if the problem was in our development, or running HEAD; we've hacked there a bit.  But that sort of problem creates the symptom you're seeing.
13:40 jdavidb        owen:  I'd think the script would be useful enough for misc/maintenance.  *shrug*
13:41 gmcharlt       if you can send me the relevant commit from your hackery, that may be enough to figure out if it applies to HEAD
13:41 gmcharlt       jdavidb: please submit the script, then
13:42 jdavidb        I'd have to *find* it.  part of the recent hackery has a new column in reserves, and I don't know if that's part of HEAD or not.  I could also check HEAD and see if the error is still in there; it was plain as the nose on my face, when I saw it.
13:46 jdavidb        owen:  the script is at http://koha.pastebin.com/d5b72ce8c for your immediate problem-solving pleasure.
13:47 owen           I wish I knew how to duplicate the error so I could test it
13:49 nengard        owen - chris_n says you were working on graphics for the label/patron card makers to show how to figure out the measurements
13:49 nengard        any chance you're still doing this?
13:50 chris_n        owen: this was the graphic to show measurements like margins, pitch, height, width, etc
13:50 jdavidb        gmcharlt, owen:  The error that was causing this kind of holds-priority problem for us is *not* present in HEAD.  a duplication of the hidden-input borrowernumber/biblionumber pairing was causing it, for us.
13:51 jwagner        jdavidb, but is it present in .061?  owen's running near enough to our version level.
13:52 jdavidb        two shakes.
13:53 jdavidb        Nope, I don't see it in that batch, either.
13:53 owen           nengard: It's something I worked on quite a while ago. I'm sure I still have the images, not sure if they're complete.
13:54 * owen         thought he remembered attaching the images to a bug report...
13:55 owen           Here we go, Bug 2069

13:57 nengard        owen, let's do png since that's what all of the screenshots in the manual are
13:57 CGI562         gmcharlt, can u pls give ur email addy?
13:57 owen           nengard: Are the sizes of that Bug's attachments appropriate?
13:58 nengard        sorry - wasn't even looking at the bug ;) off to check it now

14:25 hilongo        hello there!  :)
14:27 hilongo        Quick question ... I have installed koha 3.0.5 downloading and installing... but I'm having some problems getting it to run properly and thought that maybe I should try to get koha from git... but my koha is already in production ... so I don't know how to procede to replace one with the other :-/
14:30 gmcharlt       hilongo: the crude-but-simplest way would be to do a new dev-mode install from Git, then just point it to your production mysql database and Zebra database
14:31 gmcharlt       and update your Apache config to point to the new install, of course
14:39 owen           nengard: Have you done documentation of rotating collections yet?
14:41 nengard        nope
14:41 nengard        all this new stuff came at once :)
14:42 owen           I'm working on some pretty heavy template revisions for it, you might want to wait
14:42 hilongo        gmcharlt: OK ... so, the steps would be: 1) git clone (somewere)  2) git pull  3) git fetch --tags  4) git reset --hard (what would I put here?) 5) point this new kohaclone to my mysql and zebra databases (how do I do this? editting the new koha-conf.xml or something else too?)  6) point Apache (via koha-httpd.conf) to the new location)  7) Dance the victory dance .. ...
14:42 nengard        owen - thanks!! and awesome!! it did look like it needed your touch :)
14:44 gmcharlt       1) git clone git://git.koha.org/pub/scm/koha.git 2) git checkout -b active origin/3.0.x (or replace origin/3.0.x with the tag of the specific version you want to run)
14:44 gmcharlt       no need to be doing git fetch, git reset --hard for an initial install
14:45 gmcharlt       5) perl Makefile.PL (when asked, put in your existing mysql DB credentials and set path to existing production Zebra config)
14:45 gmcharlt       make; make install
14:45 gmcharlt       compare the koha-conf.xml generated by the dev mode install to the already in place and update it
14:45 gmcharlt       bounce apache
14:46 gmcharlt       dance the victory dance
14:46 gmcharlt       missing some details, but hopefully you get the idea
14:49 * jwagner      envisions gmcharlt dancing a victory dance
14:50 wizzyrea       i bet it's glorious
14:51 owen           I bet it involves some poppin' and lockin'
14:52 hilongo        coming soon at Youtube maybe?  :)
14:52 jwagner        I seem to remember some discussion of creating a haka for Koha -- maybe when chris gets better?
14:52 gmcharlt       naw, I dance like a robot whose battery has run down
14:53 wizzyrea       Hmm, reminds me of the sound kids toys make when the batteries still have enough juice to go, but it's all warbly and weird
14:53 wizzyrea       owen will know what I mean
14:53 wizzyrea       that isn't to say gmcharlt is warbly and weird, but that's how I imagine his run down robot dance
14:54 gmcharlt       I meant when the battery is completely run down ;)
14:54 wizzyrea       Ohh... I think they call that performance art.
14:55 jwagner        wizzyrea, something like Tom Paxton's The Marvellous Toy?  "It went ZIP when it moved and POP when it stopped and WHIRRRR when it stood still"
14:55 wizzyrea       jwagner hehe yes, exactly
14:55 wizzyrea       sorry I will try to stay on target ;)
14:57 wizzyrea       so. Bugs. Anything you would like me to poke at, an area as yet untouched?
14:57 wizzyrea       or touched only briefly
14:57 collum         Owen: opac-detail has an id element defined twice. (<body> and <div>)
14:57 * chris_n      has gone through a case of bug spray already and its not even 1000 yet :-P
14:57 collum         If this id is referenced in css or js which one wins?  Or is it browser specific?
14:58 gmcharlt       wizzyrea: sysprefs and acq
14:58 owen           collum: I don't know, it's invalid.
14:58 * collum       doesn't have access to koha right now so I hope this is the right page.
14:58 wizzyrea       okies
14:59 owen           collum: I confirm the problem. The <div> should probably be the one to be renamed.
14:59 collum         owen: OK.  I can play with it tonight.  Unless you just want to do it real quick.
15:00 owen           I'll leave it for you. The <div> in question just needs a unique id that more or less describes its role/position. Doesn't need to be brilliant.
15:00 collum         yep
15:03 owen           Thanks collum
15:04 collum         np
15:16 wizzyrea       hm, is this the error colin was referring to in bug 4107? http://screencast.com/t/MmNiZjI3

15:17 wizzyrea       always a fun time.
15:18 gmcharlt       wizzy_meeting: different bug, I suspect
15:18 gmcharlt       have you set up at least one budget?
15:23 chris_n        nengard: I just submitted a couple of patches, one of which is necessary to the correct functionality of the card tool
15:25 nengard        ah - ok i'll look for it to be pushed
15:25 wizzy_meeting  yea, I do have a budget
15:25 wizzy_meeting  will go back
15:26 wizzy_meeting  still shouldn't it fail in a nicer not so geeky manner?
15:27 wizzy_meeting  Ah, and even that error is a little misleading
15:27 wizzy_meeting  you need a FUND
15:29 gmcharlt       wizzy_meeting: no question - the failure should be nicer, and tell you "go plz make new fund now" - definitely worth filing a bug for
15:29 owen           I can haz fund plz kthankxbai
15:30 * gmcharlt     appoints owen as creator of all new error messages
15:30 owen           that one's for when we get a lolcat translation to go with the Klingon and Swedish Chef one.
15:31 * jwagner      tells owen just to make them all say Eats, Shoots and Leaves
15:32 wizzy_meeting  lol owen
15:32 wizzy_meeting  I will file a bug thx gmcharlt
15:37 wizzy_meeting  erm who would be the proper assignee for new-acq?
15:37 wizzy_meeting  I feel funny assigning it to ryan
15:38 wizzyrea       for now :P
15:38 wizzyrea       bug 4111

15:39 nengard        awesome
15:39 nengard        spell checking the manual now as a way to kill time while waiting :)
15:39 owen           wizzyrea: I'd think hdl would be an appropriate assignee for new-acq
15:40 * gmcharlt     goes to change default acq assignee
15:40 wizzyrea       ty gmcharlt
15:41 wizzyrea       ok, going to talk practical koha use (for real this time) with our nexpress librarians. back in a bit
15:41 owen           gmcharlt: I'd happy to be the default assignee for the OPAC and delegate. At least it makes more sense than having them go to Josh.
15:42 gmcharlt       owen: cool - which email addy?
15:42 wizzyrea       owen++

15:43 irma           Hi all
15:44 irma           I like to view the log of the 30/1/2010
15:45 irma           the address  http://koha.org/cgi-bin/logs.plSet URL
15:45 irma           is different now...
15:46 irma           any suggestion please?
15:47 owen           http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/today
15:47 owen           Or more specifically, http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2010-01-30
15:49 gmcharlt       who wants to be default assignee for SIP2?
15:49 irma           terrific. Thanks Owen and goodnight from me...
15:49 gmcharlt       atz has this bizarre fascination with Evergreen at the moment ;)
15:51 gmcharlt       owen: done (re OPAC)
15:51 gmcharlt       I've also removed jmf@liblime.com as default assignee for all components still left with him except website (for which I've added myself as CC)
15:52 jdavidb        Colin has been doing a *lot* of SIP work lately, gmcharlt; might talk to him about taking that.
15:54 gmcharlt       @later tell Colin would you be wiling to be the default assignee for the SIP2 bug component?
15:54 munin          gmcharlt: The operation succeeded.
15:55 owen           Hmmm... No way to delete a rotating collection?
15:55 owen           editCollections.pl seems to cover the process, but the template lacks an interface. I wonder if it's buggy.
15:56 gmcharlt       owen: no doubt there are rough edges with it, yes
15:56 * owen         grumbles
15:56 gmcharlt       and I'm fully prepared to push it out of 3.2 and into 3.4 if need be
16:02 owen           gmcharlt: right off the bat I see that transfers of rotating collection items aren't getting handled properly by the returns template
16:02 owen           I'm getting conflicting messages
16:02 * gmcharlt     's hand starts moving towards the revert dagger at his side
16:06 rhcl_away      @seen chris
16:06 munin          rhcl_away: chris was last seen in #koha 1 day, 6 hours, 9 minutes, and 54 seconds ago: <chris> cool
16:06 rhcl_away      any word on chris? is he posting anywhere?
16:07 gmcharlt       rhcl_away: http://twitter.com/ranginui
16:07 rhcl           tnx
16:08 owen           http://zivotdesign.com/examples/rotating-collection-transfer-message.png
16:08 * owen         grumbles very loudly about that dashed yellow box
16:13 nengard        owen - what do you want that box to do?
16:13 owen           <div class="dialog alert"> is the correct (standard) style, not <div class="dialog error">
16:14 gmcharlt       owen: hmm, check the last 20 commits or so - I think I may have pushed an unrelated patch that violates that
16:15 owen           I may have already caught it gmcharlt, I do remember another one
16:16 owen           But my primary concern about that screenshot is the conflict between the two transfer messages
16:17 gmcharlt       yep, that does it
16:17 gmcharlt       it's going to be moved to future
16:18 * gmcharlt     grumbles, slaps self for pushing it in the first place
16:24 * gmcharlt     is also not looking forward to the X/HTML 5 vs. XHTML2 vs. XHTML1 mess
16:29 owen           There's not going to be any discussion of XHTML2
16:29 * owen         puts his foot down
16:29 gmcharlt       he - I'm kicking off the discussion now, actually
16:33 * owen         has high hopes for HTML5 and would stick with XHTML-style markup conventions.
16:49 wizzyrea       timeout on local hold, anybody proposed that?
16:49 wizzyrea       (3.4, for sure)
16:50 gmcharlt       not to my knowledge
16:50 wizzyrea       sweet, I'll um.... file a bug I guess. Is there a category for 3.4 yet?
16:50 owen           wizzyrea, can you elaborate?
16:51 wizzyrea       yessir... so lets say you have a bestseller, and you give it a itype of Local hold, restricting it to branch only patrons
16:51 wizzyrea       that item will probably not be popular anymore in 6 months
16:51 gmcharlt       wizzyrea: I add rel_3_4 to bz
16:51 wizzyrea       so no reason to have that itype on it anymore
16:51 * owen         supposes he can stop rushing to fix rotating collection templates
16:52 wizzyrea       but, 6 months down the road you have to manually remove that itype
16:52 wizzyrea       it would be nice, if at catalog time, you could set an expiration date
16:52 owen           Sounds like date-based itemtypes
16:52 wizzyrea       to automatically change the itype to a non restricted one
16:52 wizzyrea       does that exist?
16:53 gmcharlt       wizzyrea: ah, interesting - akin to Evergreen's notion of "age protection"
16:53 owen           Just trying to understand the goal better
16:53 * owen         could use some age protection himself
16:53 wizzyrea       I'm not familiar with that
16:53 gmcharlt       though age protection is an item attribute in EG, not an attribute of (EG's equivalent of) the item type
16:53 wizzyrea       but it sounds like it's related
16:53 wizzyrea       :)(
16:54 wizzyrea       I actually think that item attributes are sorely underused in koha, I bet that would be a huge job to revamp :(
16:54 wizzyrea       make holdability dependent on item specific attributes instead of itypes
16:55 wizzyrea       the local hold thing, now that I'm thinking about it, was a bit of a shoehorn
16:56 wizzyrea       brb have to move my car, the realtors next door are getting mad (wow, this meeting is putting me in a foul temper)
16:56 wizzyrea       ty for the tag gmcharlt, I'll condense my thoughts and add a bug/enhancement for 3.4 for local hold time-limits
16:57 rhcl           I've just purchased kohacon.com and kohacon.org
16:58 rhcl           these will be for community use (I'll gladly transfer ownership) if the community wants them
17:01 * chris_n      hates it when he accidentally triple clicks and closes more windows then he intended... bah...
17:02 owen           That's great rhcl. You'll have to try to connect with chris when he's back online
17:04 rhcl           yep
17:16 wizzyrea       rhcl: chris is quite ill, was in the hospital. You might try emailing him
17:16 wizzyrea       if you want response quicker
17:21 rhcl           Oh, it can wait I'm sure.
17:24 jwagner        chris is made of sterner stuff than I am.  I don't think I'd be tweeting while doctors were attacking me with scalpels and forceps....
17:24 jwagner        whimpering, maybe, but not tweeting!
17:27 rhcl           what's the escape sequence to "hid" posts here from being logged?
17:27 rhcl           hide
17:27 jwagner        Isn't it open-bracket off close-bracket?
17:27 rhcl           [test ]
17:27 owen           That's how I remember it
17:27 rhcl           well, that obviously worked
17:27 gmcharlt       [off] no, like this
17:28 * jdavidb      [off] wonders if it works for emotes, too?
17:28 rhcl           wizzyrea: did you want a peek at our libki? We've got a couple clients up and running.
17:28 owen           [off] I am planning a surprise party for logbot_backup, no one tell
17:29 owen           jdavidb: It worked!
17:29 rhcl           [off] if you want to send me you IP (ranges) I'll try to let you in. can email if you'd prefer.
17:29 jdavidb        I see that!  wooooot!
17:29 rhcl           your
17:29 * jdavidb      [off] makes faces at the bosses behind their backs, just for funsies.
17:30 * jwagner      says I'm gonna tell!!!!
17:30 jdavidb        jwagner:  :P
17:30 jdavidb        I figured you'd *help* jwagner.
17:31 jwagner        Nah, I don't bother with faces.  I just mutter curses....
17:31 gmcharlt       rhcl: remember that while [off] will prevent logbot_backup from recording it, it doesn't prevent anybody who's on channel for logging and posting the conversation </standard disclaimer about IRC logging>
17:32 rhcl           sure, understand that... this is a pretty minor thing
17:32 jwagner        The problem with making faces is that my face works independently of my thoughts.  When I think I'm grimacing in anguish, Jeetika thinks I'm in a good mood....
17:35 jdavidb        you just have a very happy face, jwagner.
17:36 jdavidb        (unlike mine.  When I'm happy, it looks pretty neutral.  When I actually smile, it's time to run and hide in fear.)
17:36 jwagner        Like I said -- face != mood....
17:37 * owen         face=neutral;mood=hungry
17:37 nengard        is hungry a mood?
17:39 imp            sure
17:40 imp            sometimes it's a "don't get between me and my food"-mood :D
17:40 rhcl           I have a coupon for a 1/4 lb double cheeseburger from BK in my hand right now. I'm mood.
17:41 jwagner        Isn't is more that the cow is mood?
17:41 nengard        oh my
17:41 * jwagner      is getting slap-happy, I think
17:42 jdavidb        jwagner:  so go slap someone?  I have a little list...
17:42 jwagner        Have baseball bat, will travel!
17:43 jwagner        Speaking of which -- 15 days until spring truly begins!  (i.e., when pitchers and catchers report for spring training)
17:44 jwagner        Oh the happiness of me!
17:44 * jwagner      thinks I'd better go get some lunch now.
17:44 rhcl           need a coupon?
17:44 nengard        hehe
17:45 jwagner        For celery sticks?  (I _HATE_ healthy lunches!)
17:52 * chris_n      adjusts his hungry mood with two pieces of homemade wheat bread
18:08 schuster       There we are... was having trouble connecting...
18:08 schuster       cgi562 did you get your root document directory worked out?
18:08 schuster       wow did I scare everyone away or is it lunch time?
18:10 schuster       Is there an easy way to compare to files say returns.pl without doing it line by line manually?  I want to look at returns.pl at 3.00.00 3.00.04/5 and 3.2 as there are things that happened along the way and I'm curious to see them.
18:11 schuster       compare two rather than to
18:11 chris_n        diff maybe
18:11 chris_n        or even git diff
18:12 schuster       so git diff /kohaclone1/returns.pl /kohaclone2/returns.pl
18:12 schuster       Sorry don't know git well yet.
18:12 chris_n        like that you would just do 'diff -u /path/file1 /path/file2'
18:13 chris_n        you may want to redirect the output to a file and then edit the file with your favorite text editor
18:13 chris_n        so 'diff -u /path/file1 /path/file2 > file.diff'
18:13 chris_n        then 'vim file.diff'
18:13 chris_n        or whatever
18:14 chris_n        wb pastebot
18:15 schuster       thank you chris_n - you are of great value to the community!
18:15 schuster       @karma chris_n ++
18:15 * chris_n      thinks munin is at lunch
18:16 schuster       hmmm might be my que ;)
18:16 chris_n        lol :-)
18:16 schuster       in looking at returns.pl today with a perl programmer there were several "FIX ME" spots that concerned me so I wanted to take a closer peek.
18:36 owen           schuster: http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=history;f=circ/returns.pl;h=da2b574d1dbbe4cd27e0b64ac913d13494449811;hb=HEAD
18:37 owen           Maybe that will tell you something?
18:43 wizzyrea       rhcl YES!
18:52 ebegin         11:00 UTC for the Koha meeting, this is in 24h format, so 11am UTC, right?
18:54 jwagner        ebegin, see http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/zones.html -- depends on your timezone.  Looks like a painful 6:00 AM ET here
18:54 ebegin         jwagner, yep, I'm on the Eastern Time too :)
18:55 jwagner        I doubt I'm going to make that meeting....
19:01 Peach          Hi all
19:05 rhcl           whizzyrea: "YES" what?
19:05 rhcl           BK coupon?
19:10 CGI646         hello
19:10 joetho         bk coupon yes. She talks about health food but dreams about BK coupons.
19:11 CGI646         can someone answer a koha question for me?
19:13 jdavidb        Ask away, 646; if someone can answer, they'll chime in.
19:14 CGI646         cool - thanks.  i am just looking at the koha demo and is there a way to print out barcodes for the patrons or books?
19:15 CGI646         i looked in reports
19:15 * jwagner      says "Paging chris_n"
19:16 jdavidb        The demo on the koha.org site is a fair bit out-of-date; I think there has been some recent work in that area, particularly on patrons.  What is already present, for items, is in the Tools menu, as "Label Creator."
19:16 CGI646         ah...just found it thanks!
19:16 * chris_n      drags himself out of a pit of bugs and grasps the keyboard
19:16 wizzyrea       you probably want to look at the demos on koha-community.org
19:16 jdavidb        wizzyrea++
19:17 wizzyrea       and there's a slightly better method for connecting to the IRC channel there as well :)
19:17 wizzyrea       one where you get to pick your nick
19:17 chris_n        jwagner: here.... just
19:17 jdavidb        The demos at koha-community.org are fresher, at the moment.
19:17 wizzyrea       they are actually up to head as of yesterday
19:17 CGI646         ok - i am looking for a program for a small charter school and found this through a google search.  i have looked at library express - is koha a pretty good program?
19:17 wizzyrea       we think so
19:17 jdavidb        awesome, wizzyrea!  you rock!
19:18 wizzyrea       jdavidb had you not seen that?
19:18 wizzyrea       I've been busy >.>
19:18 jdavidb        I saw it the night you stood it up, but I've not been back there since; been kinda busy with stuff here.
19:18 wizzyrea       and gmcharlt too, he's written most of the content
19:18 wizzyrea       PH helped with the CSS a little
19:19 jdavidb        :-O  Someone other than owen knows css around these parts?  Who knew!?  :P
19:19 wizzyrea       lol
19:19 owen           I've just got the best marketing team
19:19 jdavidb        heheh
19:20 CGI646         thanks for your help and feedback - i'll check out the demo at koha-community.org
19:20 CGI646         thanks again
19:20 jdavidb        646, you could do a *lot* worse for your library than koha.
19:21 wizzyrea       some argue that you couldn't do better :)
19:22 jdavidb        for some libraries, I'd agree, wizzyrea.  I don't think that (today) you could get Queens Borough to say so, or Library of Congress, but someday, someday...
19:22 jwagner        chris_n, I was just seeing if you wanted to describe your label & patron card creator for CGI646
19:22 CGI646         the school doesn't have any kind of program now and they only want to enter in their data once
19:23 schuster       Koha would be a good starting point as a school...  and the price is right generally
19:23 schuster       Depends on if they have a Debian server that can be setup and someone to help do updates.
19:23 wizzyrea       a good nerd always helps
19:24 jdavidb        Koha's pretty darn good for K-12 work (I hope schuster agrees with that; I'd consider him authoritative on that.)
19:24 wizzyrea       in fact,
19:24 wizzyrea       I would consider a good nerd a requirement for running koha
19:24 wizzyrea       :P
19:24 wizzyrea       or at least someone who's willing to geek out with us while we help get you going
19:25 CGI646         i would be that nerd
19:25 wizzyrea       excellent :)
19:25 CGI646         maybe :)
19:25 wizzyrea       http://koha-community.org/download-koha/ lists the requirements
19:25 jdavidb        you've already demonstrated one important skill--you're here, askin' questions.
19:26 CGI646         very tru
19:27 joetho         it lists the requirements for being a nerd?
19:27 jdavidb        What youo see right now is a pretty normal population here, for this time of day.  During US working hours, are usually several folks around who can help with things.
19:27 CGI646         pardon my ignorance - do the requirements listed mean it won't run on a windows environment?
19:28 jdavidb        It has been done on Windows, but it's not a popular setup.
19:28 rhcl           You wouldn't really want to try. :)
19:28 CGI646         ok
19:30 CGI646         ok - let me poke around some more in the demo during the last few minutes of my lunch break.  thanks again for the advice/feedback etc.
19:30 jdavidb        You bet.  best of luck.
19:32 CGI646         thanks
19:33 * jdavidb      has done his good deed for the day, and can now return to grumpy-old-coot mode.
19:35 wizzyrea       lol grumpy-old-coot
19:35 wizzyrea       ...can it run on windows. I'm not sure I really want to go there
19:36 wizzyrea       running anything on windows kind of gives me the heebie jeebies
19:36 jdavidb        wizzyrea, I don't think either one of us is quite masochistic enough for that.
19:36 wizzyrea       and it is, truly, masochism
19:36 wizzyrea       "Please microsoft... hit me again... oh the pain... again!"
19:36 rhcl           all the (best) help would be for Linux, to try on Windows would require some knowledge and ability to wing some of it
19:37 jdavidb        One o' these days, when I'm up for some pain and suffering, I'll try to spin Koha up using IIS.  Behind a firewall, natch.  Merely looking at the IIS package opens you up to all sorts of leaky security.
19:38 wizzyrea       I looked at it sideways once, and a russian hacker pwnt my brain
19:38 rhcl           IIS with Win98 on a PII ?
19:38 * jdavidb      throws a Koosh at rhcl.
19:38 rhcl           What the *heck* is a Koosh? That don't even google right
19:39 jdavidb        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koosh
19:39 rhcl           Oh, it's a ball thingie
19:39 wizzyrea       very popular in the mid 90's
19:39 wizzyrea       a squooshy, crazy looking ball
19:39 rhcl           I got some good swag day before yesterday.
19:40 * jwagner      screams in anguish
19:40 rhcl           well, off to clean off my workbench...
19:40 jdavidb        wizzyrea: You still running Easy Peasy on your Eee?
19:41 jdavidb        you okay, jwagner?
19:41 jwagner        WHY are subscription periodicity values hardcoded in the template and the pm file?  It's impossible to do a report to list a serial title and its frequency!!!
19:41 wizzyrea       actually, I was running UNR on it
19:41 wizzyrea       ubuntu netbook remix
19:41 * jdavidb      nods.
19:42 wizzyrea       is good.
19:42 jdavidb        I switched to EEEBuntu a while back, and it smokes along pretty well.
19:42 * jdavidb      hasn't tried running Koha on that.  Yet.
19:51 wizzyrea       hmm have we seen any movemint on bug 3595
19:51 wizzyrea       movement
19:51 brendan        munin ?
19:51 * wizzyrea     cries... munin is away
19:51 wizzyrea       http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3595
19:51 brendan        oh bummer...  How am I to figure out the weather?
19:51 wizzyrea       www.weather.gov
19:52 wizzyrea       http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Goleta&state=CA&site=LOX&textField1=34.4358&textField2=-119.827&e=0
19:53 brendan        thanks munin er...  wizzyrea
19:53 wizzyrea       I remember where you are, he doesn't ;)
19:53 brendan        so munin is a guy to you?
19:53 brendan        I think of munin as an it
19:53 wizzyrea       it
19:53 wizzyrea       it doesn't
19:53 Jo             morning all
19:53 wizzyrea       >.<
19:53 brendan        morning Jo
19:54 Jo             I think Munin is a guy
19:54 wizzyrea       hey jo. any word from chris? I sure hope he's feeling better
19:54 Jo             no word.
19:54 wizzyrea       poor fella
19:55 Jo             I had tonisls out when I was 27. It was all terrific until the morphine wore off then I was in unbelievable pain for about 3 days ... so not expoecting to hear from him :(
19:55 * jwagner      sends chris lots of ice cream, popsicles, and other cool and soothing stuff
19:55 Jo             Mason: you up and about yet?
19:56 wizzyrea       chloraseptic spray
19:56 wizzyrea       man I had mono in college, and that was terrible, i can only imagine what it must be like to have your tonsils out
19:56 Jo             liquid painkillers (childrens paracetemol is ghastly in large amounts )
19:57 wizzyrea       chloraseptic spray *then* take your pills
19:57 Jo             a dm on twitter gets to his phone - if he has it switched on of course
19:57 wizzyrea       spray -> pill pop
19:57 Jo             ah - see there you go! My Dad would have said gargle with whiskey (swalowing optional)
19:57 wizzyrea       i hear that works for the hiccups too
19:57 wizzyrea       lol
19:57 * jdavidb      chills a bottle of whiskey.
19:58 Jo             asking a kid to swallow straight whiskey was a bit dodgy i alwasy thought
19:58 wizzyrea       haha yea
19:58 Jo             so, talk to me about the bug squashing party next week.
19:59 schuster       makes them sleep well though not the bug squashing, but the wisky
19:59 Jo             probably  both :)
19:59 Jo             i have a bunch of bugs found in our test koha 3.x.
20:00 Jo             i was thinking i should load them into bugzilla but now unsurte.
20:00 Jo             shhould i wait until after i have tested them on the latest release
20:00 wizzyrea       yea, probably
20:00 wizzyrea       what kind of bugs
20:00 Jo             probably what?
20:00 Jo             advanced search,
20:01 wizzyrea       wait until you've tested on the latest release
20:01 Jo             patrons accounts
20:01 Jo             no blockers just little annoyances which will trash the goodwill towards going live in about 3 mins flat
20:01 Jo             ok - sonext question.
20:02 Jo             will there be a latest release test database that we could access for the bug squashing day
20:02 Jo             i doubt that chris will have been able to get ours updated by then
20:02 wizzyrea       um, the bywater demo on koha-community.org is up to date to db revision 111
20:02 wizzyrea       if that heps
20:02 wizzyrea       helps
20:02 Jo             cool.
20:02 wizzyrea       which is... yesterday
20:02 Jo             i would like to particpate and will roster one of senior staff on as well (good intro to koha community)
20:03 wizzyrea       yea, finding bugs is almost as important as squashing them :)
20:03 Jo             we won't be able to fix anything but are quite at finding, testing and reporting back
20:04 Jo             quite good (i meant)
20:04 Jo             right - off to work
20:04 gmcharlt       Jo++
20:05 wizzyrea       wb
20:07 owen           Hi vickiteal
20:07 wizzyrea       hey vickiteal
20:08 wizzyrea       owen: what do you think of this interface http://screencast.com/t/YjA4YzRhMzI
20:09 wizzyrea       does it look odd to you?
20:09 wizzyrea       like it needs some padding or something
20:09 owen           Yes
20:10 * wizzyrea     realizes she should close her tabs before sending screenshots
20:10 wizzyrea       but is terribly lazy
20:10 owen           It's okay, it gives us all a chance to snoop ;)
20:11 owen           wizzyrea: How did you reach that page?
20:11 wizzyrea       good question
20:12 joetho         one facebook tab. Not bad.,
20:12 wizzyrea       let be backtrack
20:12 wizzyrea       ;)
20:12 wizzyrea       I created an order
20:12 wizzyrea       I hit "Close this basket"
20:12 wizzyrea       Clicked "Yes"
20:13 wizzyrea       and that did it
20:13 wizzyrea       incidentally, if you hit back, and do those steps from a completed basket, it creates a new basket
20:13 wizzyrea       identical*
20:13 * owen         gets so confused by acquisitions
20:14 wizzyrea       me too
20:14 wizzyrea       I suppose it makes sense if you use it every day
20:14 wizzyrea       it's very hard to test :/
20:15 owen           I'd love to see the workflow diagrammed
20:15 wizzyrea       yes, that would be super helpful
20:15 sekjal         agreed.
20:15 braedon|work   anyone know what version of Graphics::Magick 3.2a needs? the perl makefile has it as an undisplayable character when it complains about it
20:16 braedon|work   (for me)
20:17 wizzyrea       hrm http://screencast.com/t/ODIyYTZlYjEt
20:17 wizzyrea       can anybody else replicate? I'll file the bug if so
20:17 Jo             I can draw up our acquisitions workflow if you like
20:17 wizzyrea       ooh, and if you cancel the download the basket disappears
20:18 braedon|work   is it just me that gets XML Parsing Errors when viewing those links?
20:18 wizzyrea       or disappears regardless of whether you print or not
20:18 Jo             we use koha entirely for acq
20:18 wizzyrea       the screencast ones?
20:18 braedon|work   ya
20:18 wizzyrea       I've never had an issue with them
20:18 sekjal         Jo: that'd be great!
20:18 wizzyrea       http://content.screencast.com/users/lizrea/folders/Jing/media/1547b3ed-f400-4c9a-abac-ba837f55b93e/00000128.png
20:18 owen           Jo: It might be helpful but you probably don't have all the features we're looking at. New stuff in 3.2
20:18 braedon|work   that one works
20:18 Jo             ok - onto it now (nothing like putting off other stuff that has to be done)
20:18 wizzyrea       yea, it's just the png without the wrapper
20:19 wizzyrea       oh hell, and the PDF isn't actually downloaded/generated

20:19 wizzyrea       sigh off to bugzilla I go
20:25 Jo             looking at the conversation I think we use acquisitions in a very low level way :( My diagram may not be all that helpful for bigger systems
20:26 Jo             or for koha 3 for that matter ...
20:39 wizzyrea       okies, I have a headache, see you all tomorrow
20:39 wizzyrea       :)

21:35 * chris_n      squashes the last bug of the day
21:35 chris_n        and heads back to the stall
21:38 Jo             so I have done a visio diagram of how we use acquisitions here at HLT as a starting point. Can someone advise what would be the best way to share it?
21:38 richard        i think visio lets you export as jpeg
21:38 Jo             Can save it as png, jpeg etc or a visio drawing
21:39 Jo             (waves at Richard)
21:41 chris_n        Jo: maybe in both visio and jpeg?
21:42 Jo             ok.
21:42 Jo             now how do I share them? I can load them into Kete from where they can be downloaded
21:43 Jo             but they kinda belong somewhere more Koha community space than HLT
21:43 Jo             I'll load them into Kete and someone clever can take them from there and put them anywhere useful
21:43 brendan        Hey Jo
21:44 brendan        I'd say send it to Nicole and maybe she can add it to the manual
21:44 brendan        err.. nengard that is
21:46 Jo             oh Brendan ... I suspect we operate at a very basic level compared to other big organisations.
21:46 Jo             maybe way way to simple :)
21:46 brendan        jo - I think it all helps
21:47 Jo             but I will alert her to it and she can take it from there :)
21:47 brendan        if you're doing that way I'm sure their are loads of others that are doing the same way
21:51 Nate           goodnight everyone!
21:52 Jo             here 'tis: http://kete.library.org.nz/en/site/images/show/49-jpeg-version-of-the-acquisitons-data-flow-diagram?view_size=large
