22:48 brendan         cya #koha
22:48 chris           thats my plan:)
22:41 brendan         heh - let them nap :)
22:37 chris           everyone in my house is napping, and i want to go to the fair, but if i wake them up, there will be hell to pay
22:30 munin           wizzyrea_: The operation succeeded.
22:30 wizzyrea_       @later tell gmcharlt ty for the bash help, I got it. Stupid brain.
22:12 wizzyrea_lab    meh.
22:05 wizzyrea_lab    1 hour to go
22:02 wizzyrea_lab    I feel like I'm changng them but nothing is happening :(
22:02 wizzyrea_lab    is there something you have to do to make the xslt stylesheets be updated?
22:00 * brendan       feels like he's on the end of the planet
22:00 brendan         East coast is starting their weekend.
22:00 brendan         and now is the quietest time on #koha for the week
21:56 schuster        closing shop for the weekend!  have a good one all.
21:54 sekjal          time to leave.  good night, all
21:45 gmcharlt        hitting the road - bbiab
21:42 gmcharlt        vi ~/.bashrc
21:42 * wizzyrea_lab  is having a brain fart
21:42 wizzyrea_lab    through relogs
21:41 wizzyrea_lab    oh what's the command to get your environment variables to stick
21:33 Genji           and my works dev box and hostgator box have 2.6.32....
21:30 Genji           so, i now have xml2 version 2.7.5....
21:29 Genji           installing libxml2-dev automatically updated libxml2.. uhh.....
21:29 Genji           opps
21:28 Genji           though, updatemanager wants to upgrade libxml2 file...
21:27 gmcharlt        yeah, the head INSTALL.ubuntu will be safe enough
21:27 gmcharlt        gotcha
21:27 Genji           because thats what my client is working with... and right now, upgrading would take long. custom files..
21:26 gmcharlt        umm, why are you installing that instead of 3.0.5 or 3.2.0 alpha?
21:25 gmcharlt        3.0 rc1?
21:25 Genji           oh sweet.thanks gmcharlt. hmm.... using this to install koha 3rc1 should be safe ya?
21:24 wizzyrea_lab    owen: the next time I see you we will have lots of booze together lol
21:22 gmcharlt        Genji: there's also an INSTALL.ubuntu
21:21 * gmcharlt      takes the ibuprofen, shelves the booze for later :)
21:21 owen            have a good weekend all
21:21 gmcharlt        wizzyrea_lab: heh - I'll be driving from Atlanta to Gainesville starting in a few minutes
21:21 owen            It's quitting time, I guess I can get my own booze.
21:20 wizzyrea_lab    lol
21:20 * owen          wonders how he can get in on that action
21:17 wizzyrea_lab    gmcharlt: I am sending you ibuprofen and booze. Not to be taken at the same time, of course
21:14 owen            What is that wizzyrea_lab ?
21:14 wizzyrea_lab    (and is it a syspref, can we turn it off)
21:14 wizzyrea_lab    when did the "confirm checkout for hold" dialog appear?
21:13 Genji           so http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=blob;f=INSTALL.debian-lenny would work with ubuntu?
21:11 wizzyrea_lab    chris_n: more like with my pocket protector
21:10 wizzyrea_lab    genji: afaik, it's very close
21:09 owen            wizzyrea_lab: Okay, yeah, that makes sense
21:08 Genji           Anyway, installing koha on ubuntu Koala.... same as installing on debian lenny?
21:08 wizzyrea_lab    click "ignore" on the confirm hold and transfer dialog
21:08 Genji           err... irc server got reset huh?
21:07 owen            wizzyrea_lab: How do you define "has been ignored" ?
21:07 Genji           not a good situation......
21:07 Genji           hiya all... eeep.. only one op and hes away...
21:05 wizzyrea_lab    like, you shouldn't even know about a home transfer unless a hold transfer has been ignored
21:04 wizzyrea_lab    actually, they should probably be sequential: transfer home should only appear if a hold transit has been ignored
21:04 wizzyrea_lab    yea, we've seen both situations
21:03 owen            I guess 4040 could happen either with an automatic transfer or a manual one, so yeah.
21:03 wizzyrea_lab    thanks for finding that owen, less typing for me :)
21:02 gmcharlt        owen: it's related, but not the same - 4234 is specifically for the automatic item return case
21:02 wizzyrea_lab    owen: that's actually the same as the next one I was going to submit
21:02 chris_n         bbl
21:02 * chris_n       imagines wizzyrea_lab in a long white coat
21:01 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4040 normal, P5, ---, gmcharlt@gmail.com, NEW, Checking in an already confirmed on-hold item results in duplicate dialogs
21:01 owen            I think that's the same as Bug 4040
21:00 gmcharlt        time to add a 'why' column to branchtransfers, perhaps
20:59 gmcharlt        wizzyrea_lab: yes
20:59 wizzyrea_lab    help, does this make sense?

20:59 wizzyrea_lab    bug 4234
20:57 sekjal          I'm on 5.008008
20:57 gmcharlt        sekjal: what version of Perl were you testing it on, out of curiosity?
20:44 sekjal          hopefully I'm not missing something huge with this patch, but it does give me a chance to show of my fancy new email address
20:43 chris_n         ought even
20:43 * chris_n       thinks all perls aught to be built equal :)
20:43 chris_n         sekjal++
20:43 chris_n         cool
20:43 sekjal          got one written up and ready to go
20:43 chris_n         sekjal: thank, I'll send a patch off over the weekend
20:42 owen            wizzyrea_lab: yeah, I hate that
20:42 sekjal          chris_n: Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at -e line 1.
20:42 wizzyrea_lab    there's no way to tell if an item was assigned to a patron by koha or by a person
20:41 wizzyrea_lab    this holds stuff is very interesting

20:41 jwagner         munin cage match?
20:40 chris_n         lol
20:40 schuster        until schuster tries playing with munin then he looses his/her mind....  schuster goes to the corner...
20:40 jwagner         good person, munin!
20:39 munin           owen: Error: "is" is not a valid command.
20:39 owen            munin is polite like that
20:39 * owen          is guessing
20:39 wizzyrea_lab    AH
20:39 owen            I think munin tries not to spam us with bug descriptions if they come repeatedly.
20:39 wizzyrea_lab    how's that for a title :P

20:38 * wizzyrea_lab  cries
20:38 wizzyrea_lab    seems that way
20:38 jwagner         unless munin and/or bugzilla have gone on strike....
20:38 jwagner         I think it wants a capital B -- Bug 3916
20:37 wizzyrea_lab    bug 3916
20:37 wizzyrea_lab    gerg
20:37 chris_n         sekjal: did you try this test case at the command prompt: perl -e 'use strict; my $hashname->{"hashkey"} = 123; print $hashname->{"hashkey"}'
20:37 wizzyrea_lab    bug 3916
20:36 jwagner         Passing the hat to fund enhancements?  Big change would be better than small change....
20:36 wizzyrea_lab    lol
20:35 owen            the title of that bug needs small change too
20:35 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3916 trivial, P5, ---, matthias.meusburger@biblibre.com, NEW, Batch Modify Items Tool Needs Small Change
20:35 owen            wizzyrea_lab: Bug 3916
20:33 owen            The only time I mind a duplicate bug report is if the newer one is better than mine.
20:33 wizzyrea_lab    well I am finding them... I'm trying to make sure I'm not duplicating but you know how that goes
20:33 * jdavidb       finds it hard to imagine hating wizzyrea_lab.  Ever.
20:32 owen            Not if you're finding bugs wizzyrea_lab
20:31 wizzyrea_lab    you guys are going to hate me today
20:28 jwagner         That's one of the items that I still need to write up for bugzilla, sorry.
20:28 jwagner         Yes.  I'm not too familiar with the details on that one, but for sure there's a script that transfers data to the phone system, and I think some SIP tweaks for data coming back the other way.
20:27 schuster        OK - there was a LL client asking about it and I thought I had seen someplace that someone had done work with it.  Was there coding you all had to do in order for it to work?
20:26 jwagner         Sorry, no -- the phone one is pretty much OK.  It's the selfcheck SIP we've been also doing that still has a couple of problems.
20:26 * jdavidb       is here, but only semi-functional as well.
20:25 jwagner         Still a few problems to iron out with it, though.
20:25 jwagner         Itiva Talking Tech is the phone system.
20:25 jwagner         phone notification? yes
20:25 schuster        Seems like I read someplace that you all were doing something with a calling system for overdues?
20:25 jwagner         Yes, we're here.  Brain not terribly functional, but...
20:24 wizzyrea_lab    maybe?
20:24 schuster        ptfs still around?  jwagner jdavidb?
20:24 wizzyrea_lab    hmm, 4172
20:22 owen            Some talk on the mailing list at least?
20:22 owen            I think that has been discussed, probably a bug for it already
20:22 * wizzyrea_lab  goes to file a bug
20:22 wizzyrea_lab    all of the dropdowns need to default to no change lol
20:22 chris_n         sounds like fun :)
20:22 wizzyrea_lab    there's no option for "no change"
20:21 wizzyrea_lab    even if you don't want to overwrite them >.>
20:21 wizzyrea_lab    so batch conversion changes locations
20:21 wizzyrea_lab    lol omg
20:10 jwagner         owen, our feature does add email and phone number to the pulldown for the basic patron search, which should help some.
20:01 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4231 normal, P5, ---, gmcharlt@gmail.com, NEW, Placing holds from cart fails silently
20:01 wizzyrea_lab    bug 4231
19:58 owen            jwagner: that enhanced searching sounds useful for maintenance tasks, but all I want is a bunch of form fields like the regular advanced search page.
19:55 wizzyrea_lab    k I will write it up
19:55 owen            wizzyrea_lab: doesn't sound familiar to me
19:53 wizzyrea_lab    like, click the button nothing happens kind of way
19:53 wizzyrea_lab    hm, has anyone reported that placing hold from cart fails on items that are unholdable, in a very silent way
19:53 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3468 enhancement, P5, ---, kohaprogrammers@ptfs.com, NEW, Enhanced patron searching, patron batch edit/delete
19:53 jwagner         owen, see Bug 3468 -- the SQL search part
19:53 * owen          wants to be able to search by address, phone number, email address, etc.
19:52 * owen          still thinks we need a full-blown advanced search for patrons
19:50 sekjal          chris_n:  okay, I'll give that a go
19:49 owen            It was a nice subtle modification to the UI that really works.
19:49 owen            wizzyrea_lab: hdl gets the ++ for the [+] and the functionality
19:47 chris_n         sekjal: I'd try dumping the contents of the $item_results hash and see if something is screwed up there
19:46 wizzyrea_lab    right, the display of it is ++ nice
19:46 owen            I didn't add that feature, I only tweaked the display a little bit
19:46 wizzyrea_lab    the little [+]
19:45 wizzyrea_lab    owen did you do that awesome new patron search design?
19:45 chris_n         if so, you probably want to locate the data and fix it
19:45 ebegin          test passed :)
19:45 ebegin          123
19:45 ebegin          perl -e 'use strict; my $hashname->{"hashkey"} = 123; print $hashname->{"hashkey"}'
19:45 chris_n         maybe corrupted data?
19:45 sekjal          so, it looks like some folks get the error, others don't, depending on things outside of Koha and its data.  If we patch to split the offending lines, it should work for everyone, right?
19:44 chris_n         that works fine
19:44 chris_n         :)
19:44 chris_n         snap
19:44 chris           perl -e 'use strict; my $hashname->{"hashkey"} = "123";'
19:44 chris           you cant use " on the commandline, the $ gets interpolated
19:43 ebegin          I didn't run the code... hold on
19:42 chris_n         ebegin: I get your error as well
19:41 ebegin            5.10
19:41 chris_n         ebegin: what version are you on?
19:41 chris_n         hmmm... v5.10.0 here
19:41 sekjal            5.008008
19:40 ebegin          syntax error at -e line 1, near "my ->"
19:40 ebegin          perl -e "use strict; my $hashname->{'hashkey'} = '123';"
19:40 chris_n         sekjal: what perl version
19:40 chris_n         works fine here
19:40 chris           works ok
19:40 chris           08:39 ~/git/koha (documentation)$
19:40 chris           8:39 ~/git/koha (documentation)$ perl -e 'use strict; my $item_data->{"_item_number"}'
19:40 sekjal          so, local configurations must factor in somehow
19:39 chris_n         we have run over 250 batches on that code :-)
19:39 ebegin          you may be sekjal  :)
19:39 chris           actually i lie that is valid
19:39 sekjal          I can't be the first person to try to use the Label Creator
19:39 * chris_n       wonders why we have not had this problem here
19:39 sekjal          well, it must work somewhere for someone.
19:38 chris_n         so one cannot declare a hashref and load an element in one line?
19:38 chris           yep
19:38 ebegin          The code tries to access a hash that wasn't created yet...
19:38 chris           nope its not
19:38 chris_n         weird error
19:37 ebegin          I don't think this is valid
19:37 chris           so tis not just your perl, but perl in general sekjal
19:37 chris           syntax error at -e line 1, near "my ->"
19:37 chris           perl -e "my $item_data->{'_item_number'};"
19:37 sekjal          Zebra is working and returning fine, as far as I can tell (have it running in a terminal window)
19:36 sekjal          only get the error if I get at least one result
19:36 * chris_n       looks
19:36 sekjal          in Label Creator, New Batch, press Add Item(s), and search for a term
19:36 chris           yeah that line doesnt look right to me
19:36 chris_n         sekjal: exactly what are you doing to get the error?
19:36 sekjal          what it's looking like to me right now is way my Perl is setup, it doesn't want to let me assign a hash reference to a variable on the same line I'm declaring it
19:35 chris_n         hmm...
19:35 chris           other errors yes, but a syntax one nope
19:35 chris           that wouldnt be causing a syntax error tho
19:35 chris_n         the structure may be ok, but some of the labels data corrupted in the conversion
19:34 sekjal          but maybe my crossed eyes missed something (it was late)
19:34 chris_n         sekjal: it may not have all come through cleanly
19:34 sekjal          chris_n: I spent last night comparing my current DB structure to kohastructure.sql, and couldn't find any significant differences
19:33 sekjal          chris_n: yes
19:33 sekjal          chris_n:  wouldn't be surprised, after all I've been through lately.  but I've had luck by splitting offending lines in two
19:33 chris_n         didn't we work through your data the other day?
19:33 * chris_n       has d�j� vu
19:32 chris_n         sekjal: probably a data corruption issue there
19:26 sekjal          I assume that since no one else has reported a bug about this (it prevents me from using the Label Creator at all), that it's somehow local to my system
19:25 sekjal          no, this is all fresh off git.koha.org this morning
19:25 ebegin          hmmm... did you modified the code?
19:24 sekjal          similar error has now moved to C4/Creators/Lib.pm
19:24 ebegin          cool
19:24 sekjal          ebegin: just did, and it seemed to fix the immediate problem
19:23 ebegin          $item_data->{'_item_number'} =''
19:23 ebegin          sekjal, do in it 2 lines.  my %item_data;
19:19 sekjal          my system doesn't seem to like "my $item_data->{'_item_number'} = "
19:18 sekjal          I'm still getting an error with Label Creator... a null HASH reference on line 129 of /labels/label-item-search.pl
19:05 gmcharlt        patch description would seem to be enough, unless you want to ask Darrell to toss a LICENSE into the sound directory
19:02 owen            Do we need some kind of documentation of that?
19:00 gmcharlt        owen: described in the patch - Darrell says they fall under the Artistic License
18:59 schuster        ;)
18:59 schuster        what do you work in a library or something?  sheesh.
18:59 schuster        chris++ error or non regular checkin or credit/payment/overdue
18:59 chris_n         hehe
18:58 chris           (or will after 20 mins of constant noise)
18:58 chris           cos most ppl (i suspect) only want a beep on error
18:58 schuster        owen ++
18:57 chris           yeah
18:57 owen            What we probably  need is an "audio control panel" in Administration where you can check off which ones you want
18:56 owen            One pref to rule them all
18:56 chris           the sounds are totally syspref controlled eh?
18:54 owen            ...and do they require their own license statement?
18:53 owen            Does anyone know what the source of the sounds is?
18:53 wizzyrea_       starving, must have brain food to slog through holds this afternoon :)
18:52 chris_n         owen: very nice
18:52 wizzyrea_       ok, food
18:52 wizzyrea_       imo
18:52 wizzyrea_       it should be a different sound than the checkout noise
18:52 nengard         i guess that's okay
18:52 nengard         ah!
18:52 owen            chris_n must have seen my animated background example http://www.myacpl.org/koha/?p=237
18:52 wizzyrea_       because he wants to know when the page is ready for action
18:52 wizzyrea_       darrel sent me a long email telling me why
18:52 nengard         what's the logic?
18:51 wizzyrea_       I understand the logic behind the beep on page load but it's annoying lol
18:51 nengard         i don't need a sound to tell me i opened a new page ;)
18:51 nengard         yeah - why does it beep when i get to the page itself?
18:51 wizzyrea_       i like the sounds, but wow it beeps a lot
18:51 chris_n         especially with the new sounds feature :)
18:51 nengard         chris_n those are all very very bad web design :)
18:51 nengard         LOL
18:50 nengard         cause people won't know to look there
18:50 chris_n         owen could whip up some special css to make it flash lights and ring bells
18:50 wizzyrea_       :)
18:50 wizzyrea_       well yea
18:50 wizzyrea_       i mean, it's deletable before that
18:50 nengard         but make it 2 or 3 days :)
18:50 nengard         love it
18:50 nengard         wizzyrea_++
18:50 chris_n         excellent idea
18:50 chris_n         wizzyrea_++
18:50 wizzyrea_       with every update
18:50 wizzyrea_       into the DB
18:50 wizzyrea_       that expires 1 day after date of update
18:50 wizzyrea_       chris_n: could put an automatic news item
18:49 wizzyrea_       so the place where it stops is based on that, not the content of where it stops, if that makes sense
18:49 wizzyrea_       I think it quits parsing when it gets to 200
18:48 wizzyrea_       over 200 of them, varying numbers
18:48 wizzyrea_       kind of errors
18:48 wizzyrea_       nengard: openjade:/home/koha-community/public_html/wp-content/uploads/kohadocs/en/koha3-2manual.xml:19385:55:E: non SGML character number 147
18:47 gmcharlt        but sure
18:47 chris_n         ie. the redirect bit resets after the page is accessed until the next upgrade sets it again
18:47 gmcharlt        that or just include a link to the release notes on the page after the update finishes
18:47 chris_n         it would be nice to have a one-time redirect after every upgrade to an upgrade notes page or something like that
18:46 chris_n         gmcharlt: just speaking with nengard about the need at times of communicating misc info to the user after an upgrade (not necessarily a db upgrade)
18:43 chris           sekjal: sweet!
18:42 nengard         so it's the <table> tags - which is weird cause they're the same in HTML as in DocBook
18:42 sekjal          just saw this on Slashdot: Jacobsen v. Katzer Settled - Victory of F/OSS http://miburl.com/W0WBur
18:42 nengard         it looks like the script is choking on the first table
18:42 nengard         just wanted to help if I could
18:42 nengard         I understand time issues
18:42 nengard         no that's A-OK!!
18:41 wizzyrea_       i'm sorry I haven't had more time to look at it
18:41 wizzyrea_       so all you'll have to do is update the git repo and the changes will come in with no intervention
18:41 wizzyrea_       on a schedule
18:41 wizzyrea_       when it's perfect I will make it automatic
18:39 wizzyrea_       and I'm tied up all afternoon with holds system testing
18:39 wizzyrea_       so I have to figure out how to tell the script to ignore those errors, or make the threshold higher
18:39 wizzyrea_       but the docbook2html chokes on some of your characters, and that's why it's not complete
18:39 wizzyrea_       no, not much to do to help out, unless you can procure extra time for me. I will look at it this weekend, nengard

18:37 brendan         morning chris
18:37 jwagner         G'morning chris
18:37 sekjal          morning, chris
18:36 chris           morning
18:05 sekjal          brb
17:38 sekjal          I assume others will do the same, at least in large part
17:38 sekjal          at least mine will
17:38 sekjal          yes
17:38 owen_           sekjal: Will presentations be put online?
17:36 sekjal          owen_: understand. sorry you can't make it, but there will be other code4libs, and other conferences
17:36 nengard         wizzyrea_ where are we with getting the documentation updated on the new site? right now it's not the complete manual and it's not the most recent version.  Is there anything I can do to help out?
17:35 owen_           I've been shirking all my non-Koha duties lately and now I've got to catch up
17:35 owen_           sekjal: I wish I could make it to code4Lib, but I can't
17:33 owen_           I'm back, I was just downstairs renaming our cataloging department "Bibliographic Processing and Control"
17:31 munin           gmcharlt: The operation succeeded.  Quote #60 added.
17:31 gmcharlt        @quote add <owen> "My 9-month-old may not be walking yet, but she's got great bib control."
17:31 munin           gmcharlt: The operation succeeded.
17:31 gmcharlt        @quote remove 59
17:31 munin           gmcharlt: The operation succeeded.  Quote #59 added.
17:31 sekjal          owen: are you coming to Code4Lib?  I owe you a Beverage if you are...
17:31 gmcharlt        @quote add owen> "My 9-month-old may not be walking yet, but she's got great bib control."
17:27 sekjal          lol
17:26 owen            "My 9-month-old may not be walking yet, but she's got great bib control."
17:26 owen            "Bib Control" That's great.
17:21 sekjal          jwagner: yes, I do feel a little bad about that, but they know where to find me if they want to contract for support.
17:21 jwagner         Wish we were, though.
17:21 jwagner         I don't think so.  Timing of other events kind of prevented us from making the travel plans.
17:20 gmcharlt        jwagner: are any PTFSers going to Code4Lib?
17:19 jwagner         Hmmm.  Upgrade to new version and leave immediately :-)
17:17 sekjal          I guess this can be considered my parting gift to them; today is my last day with NYUHSL
17:16 gmcharlt        :)
17:16 sekjal          some may feel so about our bibs, yes, but I think they're in good hands
17:16 sekjal          they love the interface improvements to the Edit Items screen (no more scrolling every which way)
17:16 gmcharlt        do your bibs often run amuck?
17:15 sekjal          gmcharlt: yes
17:15 gmcharlt        Bib Control?  cataloging?
17:02 sekjal          Bib Control is ecstatic
17:01 sekjal          I just moved them to the latest and greatest this morning
17:01 gmcharlt        sekjal++
17:01 sekjal          just wanted to pop in quick and let wizzyrea_ and gmcharlt (and everyone else) know that NYUHSL is committed to being live on 3.2 beta
17:00 chris_n         bbiab
17:00 sekjal          hi!
17:00 pianohackr|work hey ian
17:00 chris_n         sekjal even
17:00 chris_n         heya sekja
17:00 chris_n         I discovered my production db instance was not built with the InnoDB engine and all my tables were MyISAM
16:59 pianohackr|work eh. What happened?
16:59 chris_n         pianohackr|work: sounds like my day yesterday
16:53 owen            However, you can use software like VirtualBox to run Linux in a virtual machine on your windows machine
16:53 owen            gatchen: there is no up-to-date version of Koha that works on Windows at the moment
16:52 gatchen         owen
16:51 gatchen         yess
16:51 owen            Welcome back gatchen
16:50 gatchen         hi all
16:50 * jwagner       snickers at the geek thing. I am not worthy!
16:48 jwagner         gmcharlt, thanks.  Just wanted to confirm.
16:48 gmcharlt        jwagner: correct - QueryRemoveStopwords doesn't need to be on if you're using Zebra
16:47 gmcharlt        jwagner: riffing on something you mentioned earlier - http://www.geekcode.com/geek.html
16:35 gmcharlt        wizzyrea_: production beta 3.2? no - glad Colin has found a guinea pig :)
16:16 magnus_away     ouch...
16:15 pianohackr|work Really, nothing makes a morning like walking into a recurring kernel panic on your production koha server
16:03 jwagner         Somebody doublecheck me -- the QueryRemoveStopwords syspref is only relevant if you AREN'T using zebra, correct?
15:54 jwagner         if I'm reading that right, that's something you'd like to build in, but isn't present yet?
15:53 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3382 enhancement, P5, ---, oleonard@myacpl.org, NEW, Add classes to XSLT results and detail displays to facilitate CSS styling
15:53 owen            jwagner: Bug 3382
15:51 paul_p          (although a little bit risky imo...)
15:51 jwagner         owen, speaking of jquery :-) does it work on XSLT labels?  I didn't see how offhand.
15:51 paul_p          Colin++
15:45 Colin           thats live real soon now
15:45 Colin           We've just trained a site on 3.2 alpha going soon real soon now
15:38 owen            wizzyrea: Do you mean people who have said they'd go into production with 3.2 once it was in beta?
15:32 wizzyrea        if that makes sense
15:32 wizzyrea        gmcharlt do you have anyone who has committed to production beta 3.2?
15:31 rhcl2           is thd the only sysop?
15:29 jwagner         But for the future....
15:29 jwagner         No great rush -- I have too much else to do right now anyway.
15:29 wizzyrea        (web work day, actually)
15:29 wizzyrea        jwagner: i'll try to create the page right now, but then have to run off to a training session
15:29 jwagner         I don't speak wiki enough to create such a page, but if someone else can set it up, I can add some of mine.
15:28 jwagner         I'll be putting together such a list for our internal sites but most of it would be useful for others.
15:27 wizzyrea        oh, that's a really good idea
15:27 jwagner         Suggestion for the wiki -- we have the sample SQL page, maybe we should have a sample jquery page.  Here's what I wanted to do, here's the command that worked.
15:27 wizzyrea        and owen for his most excellent kohacon presentation
15:26 wizzyrea        there's just no reason to change the template, and I owe all of that realization to owen and gmcharlt (poor gmcharlt had to deal with us before we were using jquery and was so gentle in his suggestion to try jquery)
15:26 jwagner         Now I need to do the same for other sites -- figure out what I hardcoded that could be replaced by a jquery instead.  It's gonna make upgrading SO much easier in the future.
15:25 wizzyrea        yea, I have a Zillion of them in ours
15:25 jwagner         I'm in the middle of an upgrade from a site installed a year ago -- jquery has saved me about 16-17 template customizations at latest count.
15:25 wizzyrea        it's like magic
15:25 wizzyrea        or, had occasion to use it more
15:24 wizzyrea        I love jquery. I wish I used it more.
15:24 jwagner         But I have to brag a little on my jquery geekdom -- used owen's example of how to hide the first/last table column, and figured out how to hide, say, the 6th column :-)
15:22 * jwagner       wonders if there are official levels of geekdom
15:21 wizzyrea        but thank you for promoting me :)
15:21 wizzyrea        paul_p: I think you mean "Wizzyrea is now a Koha geek" because my geek flag has been flown high for quite a while now... just not in Git/Perl/Koha lol
15:21 sekjal          probably something local, if no one else has noticed this, but still a major hassle for my colleagues
15:20 sekjal          Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/labels/label-item-search.pl line 129.
15:20 sekjal          whenever I do a search for items to add, I get a software error back
15:20 sekjal          I'm probably the only one getting this, but does anyone else have an issue with Label Creator and adding items to a batch?
15:19 paul_p          wizzyrea is now a geek : "i just pull them", said like "I bought the bread" :D
15:19 gmcharlt        hopefully not too much (more than normal, anyway :) )
15:19 wizzyrea        so we should expect a little wierdness, perhaps?
15:18 wizzyrea        we will look closely this afternoon :)
15:18 wizzyrea        I think I just pulled them
15:18 sekjal          paul_p:  ugh, that sounds horrid.
15:18 gmcharlt        wizzyrea: pushed a bunch of holds patches - none of which yet fix the transiting issues, but aiming to close the queue of functionality changes before working on the bugfixes
15:18 paul_p          (and, of course, zebra error messages are really hard to deal with...)
15:17 paul_p          yesterday, two of us lost 4 hours on a new setup... just because zebra has been setup zebra 1.x :'(((((
15:14 jwagner         hacking as in the axe murderer scenario?  I'm about ready to do that on one of our setups :-(
15:11 wizzyrea        *yawn* how goes the koha hacking today
15:11 jwagner         good morning wizzyrea
15:10 wizzyrea        good morning
14:37 jwagner         I was afraid of that :-(  Thanks.
14:37 gmcharlt        rental charge
14:37 jwagner         On the list of checkouts in the patron record (Details and Checkout tab), what does the Charge column refer to?  Rental charge? Fine?
14:31 owen            Thanks gmcharlt I'll try that.
14:31 gmcharlt        in reserve/request.pl
14:31 gmcharlt        owen: nengard: re 2970, I don't think that's a huge deal - certainly not worth removing the permission - but perhaps setting the flagsrequired to reserveforothers => '*' will get you what you want
14:30 nengard         be back later
14:30 nengard         k - time to give a webinar
14:28 gmcharlt        jwagner: yes, that's another piece of the puzzle
14:28 jwagner         Does that help with your issue?
14:27 jwagner         This is one of the items that we should be sending out soon (once we get it updated to current head).
14:27 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3474 enhancement, P5, ---, kohaprogrammers@ptfs.com, NEW, Handling of and report for expired or cancelled holds, display expiration dates
14:27 jwagner         Did you look at Bug 3474?
14:26 nengard         yes
14:26 jwagner         nengard and gmcharlt, I missed a lot of the discussion, but you're talking about expiring holds?
14:25 nengard         i agree - so we either need to remove the permission or make it work :)
14:24 owen            It doesn't really make sense to give someone permission to modify holds but not to place them
14:24 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=2970 enhancement, P3, ---, gmcharlt@gmail.com, ASSIGNED, Create a permission for modifying holds priority
14:24 owen            nengard: I agree with your comment on Bug 2970, but I'm not sure how to better handle that case
14:23 gmcharlt        correct
14:23 nengard         just to confirm
14:23 nengard         ah - okay - so this cron only works if an expiration date has been set for a hold - and right now that is only done at the time the hold is placed?
14:22 nengard         off to do that
14:21 nengard         but I did not try a hold request
14:21 nengard         i have last night's patches :)
14:21 gmcharlt        when it's created - may I suggest that you go install last night's patches first and try testing placing a hold request?
14:20 nengard         gmcharlt - how do we set an expiration date for a hold?
14:20 gmcharlt        circ/waitingreserves.pl handles that
14:19 gmcharlt        not the same thing as the case that would be handled by ReservesMaxPickUpDelay, which would need a report of items that should be taken off the holds shelf
14:19 gmcharlt        it's cancelling unfilled hold requests that have an explicit expiration date
14:18 nengard         gmcharlt - can you tell me what preference controls that cron job - how does it know when to cancel a hold?
14:18 nengard         if so then the description for that pref is wrong - can anyone confirm?
14:15 nengard         oh - is it:  ReservesMaxPickUpDelay
14:15 nengard         what controls when a hold is canceled - i thought it was a sys pref, but I don't see it
14:02 sekjal          hi, gatchen
14:02 gatchen         anybody here
14:01 gatchen         hello
13:47 gmcharlt        http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=blobdiff;f=misc/cronjobs/crontab.example;h=33845a80a208a1f51908543725f977207ba48f8b;hp=bdb58f70a1f99a81a452342a97a7076910b8a08b;hb=21c7f786bf6b0d23fba69d9def05e1fe47010287;hpb=57869cb439b5956ca3aa7bca6f4d1555a11c8089
13:47 gmcharlt        check crontab.example in one of last few commits - there's a new job to cancel expired holds
13:46 nengard         :) we'll see in a few hours I guess
13:46 chris_n         it should
13:46 nengard         k - done - so the rest is okay? will this rebuild search and calculate fines and populate the holds resports -- aka - everything that doesn't require email
13:43 chris_n         top
13:43 nengard         does it matter?
13:43 nengard         where do i put those lines
13:43 nengard         ah
13:43 gmcharlt        crontab -e edits it
13:43 nengard         okay  - so where is my crontab so I can edit it? crontab -l just shows me the contents
13:42 gmcharlt        replace '/home/liblime' with the correct path, of course
13:42 gmcharlt        KOHA_CONF=/home/liblime/kohaclone/etc/koha-conf.xml
13:42 gmcharlt        PERL5LIB=/home/liblime/kohaclone
13:42 gmcharlt        nengard: if that's the entirity of your cron tab, you may also be missing
13:42 chris_n         -z does not seem to work here, but I've not taken the time to debug it
13:41 chris_n         but that is a problem if you have too many bibs/items
13:41 chris_n         change -z to -r
13:41 nengard         search and authorities
13:41 nengard         I'd just be happy if search rebuilt on its own
13:41 nengard         chris_n - cause I don't have email working :)
13:41 chris_n         nengard: no overdue_notices.pl in your crontab
13:40 collum          owen gets more stats
13:40 gmcharlt        ;)
13:40 nengard         keywords??
13:40 gmcharlt        owen: congratulations!  you have now figured out how libraries can be relevant in a web 2.0 world!
13:40 owen            I'm not sure what they get out of it
13:40 htaccess        gmcharlt: thanks, ill have a look at 2505 and go from there
13:40 nengard         wierd
13:39 owen            someone spamming... something in my catalog?
13:39 gmcharlt        #2 or #3 are better (one issue per file or one issue per directory)
13:39 owen            I found this via a google alert for my library's name: http://twitter.com/JohnHeals/status/9286997546

13:39 htaccess        Fix one issue in one file as a single patch
13:39 htaccess        Fix one issue universally as one big patch
13:39 htaccess        In terms of the actual patches should I:
13:38 nengard         gmcharlt - nothing in /var/log/messages
13:38 gmcharlt        and use the existing perltidyrc - it's xt/perltidyrc
13:38 htaccess        actually:
13:38 htaccess        gmcharlt: defintly
13:38 gmcharlt        if you want to focus on whitespace cleanup, that's fine, but please don't mix whitespace and bugfixes in the same patch
13:37 htaccess        gmcharlt: ok that sounds sensible
13:37 gmcharlt        build up a few kudos before announcing any grand plans :)
13:37 gmcharlt        well, you can certainly bring it up on the list, but I think a better start would be to pick a few small bugs and submit patches for them first
13:36 pastebot        "nengard" at 192.168.15.101 pasted "crontab" (28 lines) at http://paste.workbuffer.org/3
13:36 htaccess        gmcharlt: no not to koha
13:36 gmcharlt        to Koha, that is
13:36 gmcharlt        htaccess: have you submitted patches before?
13:35 gmcharlt        nengard: run crontab -l
13:35 htaccess        gmcharlt: would you suggest bringing up the issue on the list?
13:35 gmcharlt        and he's done quite well
13:35 nengard         okay - it's been a while since I did this ... remind me where my crontab is :)
13:35 gmcharlt        Garry Collum has been sending a number of patches for that, but there are still lots of scripts that need it
13:34 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=2505 major, P3, ---, gmcharlt@gmail.com, NEW, enable Perl warnings in all modules and scripts
13:34 gmcharlt        a good starting point might be bug 2505 (adding the use warnings pragma)
13:34 htaccess        i have forked http://github.com/ranginui/koha and am keen to get busy but thought i should sound out the community
13:34 gmcharlt        htaccess: start small, don't try to rebuild the world in one go :)
13:34 nengard         will do
13:34 gmcharlt        nengard: please paste your crontab; also check /var/log/messages to see if cron is reporting anything amiss
13:33 htaccess        but dont want to step on any toes
13:33 gmcharlt        cool
13:33 nengard         can someone help me get some cron jobs set up? I thought I did it right, but I must have missed a step or have a syntax error - cause they're not running  (I'm on debian)
13:33 htaccess        gmcharlt: i would be keen on being involved
13:33 gmcharlt        there was some discussion of perltidy and do a mass whitespace cleanup when we branch 3.4
13:33 htaccess        gmcharlt: yes i am subbed
13:32 htaccess        Don't needlessly refactor code, if it ain't broke, don't fix it! Don't waste time on changing style from someone else's style to your's! If you must refactor, make sure that the commit for the refactoring is completely separate from a bugfix, etc.
13:32 htaccess        Refactoring Code
13:32 gmcharlt        are you subscribed to koha-devel ?
13:32 htaccess        but i notice you say here http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:codingguidelines
13:32 gmcharlt        htaccess: sure
13:32 htaccess        cf http://janitor.kernelnewbies.org/
13:32 htaccess        im wondering if the koha community would value a janitor?
13:31 htaccess        im curious, looking at the koha code i notice there is a lot of inconsistency for example tabs and spaces for whitespace, trailing whitespace, cuddled elses and many things contra to 'perl best practices', is there any desire to fix this stuff or is it a case of 'if it aint broke' ?
13:29 gmcharlt        hi owen
13:21 owen            Hi
13:21 chris_n         heya owen
13:20 chris_n         gmcharlt: gmail patch resubmitted
13:04 chris_n         k, I'll do it
13:04 gmcharlt        another thought occurs - let's stick them into C4::Installer::Deps or C4::Installer::PerlModules
13:04 gmcharlt        chris_n: 3.2, but also please include have about.pl get its list of modules from C4::Installer
13:03 htaccess        gmcharlt: thanks
13:02 chris_n         or 3.4
13:02 chris_n         gmcharlt: would you like for me to implement your recommendations on moving the deps list and resubmit for 3.2?
13:02 gmcharlt        htaccess: chris@bigballofwax.co.nz
13:02 htaccess        yes, chris cormack
13:01 chris_n         :)
13:01 * gmcharlt      notes that occassionally that hasn't stopped him from doing so at times :/
13:01 gmcharlt        chris_n: yeah, I'd like to avoid pushing syntax errors :)
13:00 gmcharlt        chris cormack?
13:00 htaccess        does chris c have a koha email address?
13:00 chris_n         gmcharlt: it seems this one should not (I need to resubmit to correct a syntax error)
12:59 chris_n         yeah, a docbook2pdf converter discovered them on my side
12:59 gmcharlt        chris_n: generally speaking, I'll be pushing 3.4 enhancements patches to 3.2 only if they are self-evidently won't break something else
12:58 nengard         in the case of that message - i actually found those errors and had fixed them - sometimes i forget to check my validation in XMLEditor
12:58 chris_n         nengard: will do
12:57 chris_n         gmcharlt: I was not sure how much enh stuff you wanted in 3.2 hence my 3.4 subject line
12:56 jwagner         gmcharlt, thanks.
12:55 nengard         and that was the email i meant to put DOCS in the subject or something to make me notice it
12:55 chris_n         tnx even
12:55 chris_n         tn
12:54 * chris_n       needs to rebase that
12:54 chris_n         right
12:54 nengard         I think your changes are in the manual now
12:54 nengard         chris_n -- regarding this: http://lists.koha.org/pipermail/koha-patches/2010-February/005574.html
12:54 chris_n         and I see a syntax error...
12:54 gmcharlt        chris_n: no, not yet
12:54 chris_n         nengard: it needs the coding changes
12:53 nengard         Oh!! Yeah
12:53 chris_n         gmcharlt: I don't see that that ^^ was pushed
12:53 chris_n         nengard: http://lists.koha.org/pipermail/koha-patches/2010-February/005572.html
12:52 gmcharlt        jwagner: import_biblios.matched_biblionumber -> import_records -> import_batch
12:51 chris_n         hmm.... I'm missing it
12:50 jwagner         Question on tracing catalog records -- Is there any way starting from the bib record in Koha to tell what import batch loaded it?  With several hundred batches in the list, it's not feasible to try to look through each one to find the title.
12:49 nengard         chris_n - the email librarian patch? cause Galen pushed it last night
12:49 gmcharlt        chris_n: no, the patch to the koha manual you did
12:49 chris_n         I'll send you a link in a moment
12:49 chris_n         nengard: this was submitted as an enhancement for 3.4 so I'm not sure it will make it into 3.2
12:48 nengard         chris_n and all - when you send emails for documentation to patches can you put DOCUMENTATION or DOCS or something in the subject so I catch it?? I missed your last one chris_n - but I"ll get those changes in there
12:46 chris_n         om
12:46 chris_n         to patches@
12:46 nengard         chris_n - where????
12:46 chris_n         nengard: I submitted a how to for setting up gmail as an smtp
12:45 chris_n         nengard: it works, I have it running here nightly
12:45 * jwagner       debates the inevitable collisions when everyone thinks their locale is the center of the universe
12:45 * jdavidb       just barely speaks English, he's been told.
12:43 paul_p          things would be so easier if : 1-everyone spoke french 2-live at UTC :D
12:43 paul_p          the problem with universe/multiverse is that we don't know who is at morning, who is at evening, who is sleeping, who is at lunch, who is at dinner...
12:42 jwagner         Nah, too much trouble....
12:42 jwagner         Maybe our default greeting should be Hello Universe or Multiverse?
12:41 Colin           and dimensions beyond our ken
12:40 jwagner         And the Martians, and the Venusians?
12:40 gmcharlt        not expansive enough, what about the poor Selenes? ;)
12:39 * jwagner       thinks paul_p is feeling pretty expansive today ;-)
12:39 paul_p          hi jwagner & jdavidb & nengard & all america world
12:38 gmcharlt        hi Colin  jwagner jdavidb
12:38 jwagner         Morning.
12:38 jdavidb         Hi, Colin! :)
12:37 Colin           Morning all
12:33 nengard         now i just have to figure out how to get email working on this darn virtualbox ... maybe someone could write up a tutorial for that??
12:33 nengard         awesome
12:33 nengard         well there it is!! :)
12:30 nengard         oh! yeah :) got it
12:30 gmcharlt        but looking at the table with mysql will at least show that the message is ready to go once you start running the cronjob and get email working :)
12:30 gmcharlt        yeah
12:28 nengard         i don't have that cron running either ;)
12:25 gmcharlt        it puts the message in message_queue, so you can look at the table to at least see that the message was added
12:25 nengard         morning!! :)
12:25 gmcharlt        morning nengard
12:19 nengard         can someone test the fix for: emailLibrarianWhenHoldIsPlaced  -- I don't have email working on my test system yet
12:19 nengard         morning all!
10:28 Amit            hi magnus, galen
10:26 gmcharlt        hi Amit
10:26 magnus          oups... hi Amit
10:26 magnus          ho Amit
10:17 Amit            hi all
10:12 magnus          hm, guess i need to pass out more chocolate...
10:11 munin           magnus: Karma for "magnus" has been increased 2 times and decreased 0 times for a total karma of 2.
10:11 magnus          @karma magnus
10:11 gmcharlt        magnus++
10:11 magnus          virtual "Freia melkesjokolade" (norwegian milk chocolate) for everyone!
10:10 magnus          woohoo! ;-)
10:10 chris           magnus: gmcharlt pushed the patch, you're official :)
10:09 chris           translate.koha.org currently points to my server where pootle lives, so if we cant get that pointed to where fredericd wants it, we might need to do translate.koha-community.org
10:04 gmcharlt        yep
10:02 chris           we can discuss it then
10:02 chris           yep, there is a meeting 2nd march
09:59 gmcharlt        yeah
09:59 magnus          as i recall it we were just about to give up on LL when the PTFS-thing was announced, so i would guess we are back at that point now...
09:57 gmcharlt        paul_p: yeah, I guess one way would be for Jo and HLT so say that they're officially giving up and recommend moving to koha-community.org
09:57 paul_p          because, of course, we have no hope to retrieve Koha.org - at least until LL goes bankrupt -
09:56 gmcharlt        magnus: cool
09:56 paul_p          who takes the ball on this matter ? hlt/jransom ?
09:55 magnus          value_builders + there are some places that assume unimarc as the default, i thought i'd to send an email to the devel-list on how i should handle those
09:55 paul_p          mmm... about koha.org => shouldn't we decide to move definetly to koha-community.org ?
09:54 magnus          gmcharlt: both
09:54 gmcharlt        magnus: your normarc work - is it a set of framework SQL, or do you also have code changes?
09:53 gmcharlt        of course, I can see how the koha.org vs. koha-community.org thing could make someone rather unsure where to redirect to
09:52 paul_p          gmcharlt: yep
09:52 paul_p          'morning gmcharlt
09:52 gmcharlt        paul_p: chris: arg - hopefully that website change is just a glitch
09:50 chris           gmcharlt: he did volunteer after friday drinks at work, .. but it's in the logs now :)
09:50 gmcharlt        [but /me likes cuddled elses and doesn't understand anybody who doesn't ;) ]
09:49 gmcharlt        htaccess: welcome future code janitor!
09:49 chris           that'd do it
09:49 gmcharlt        eh, too much caffeine last night
09:46 chris           wow you are awake early gmcharlt
09:46 hdl_laptop      hi gmcharlt
09:45 gmcharlt        good morning
09:00 magnus          oh, yeah, i have a hard time keeping my install of head up to date :-)
09:00 CGI833          is any one here?
09:00 CGI833          hi all
09:00 chris           we only have a few more blockers left
08:59 chris           its getting very close, galen has been pushing patches like crazy :)
08:59 chris           *nod*
08:59 magnus          i'm sort of waiting for 3.2 to be "finished", so the normarc work can go into 3.4, if the RM sees fit
08:58 magnus          cool!
08:56 chris           with your normarc work, we should be able to add libriotech to the about page soon :)
08:55 magnus          yup, that's me! ;-)
08:53 chris           102 :)
08:52 magnus          thanks
08:51 chris           done
08:48 magnus          great - i'm ever so slightly proud of having my name added to that list... :-)
08:47 chris           hehe ill add that right now
08:46 magnus          btw, chris, you forgot what is probably the tinyest patch in the history of koha in your recent update to history.txt: http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=commit;h=8c62c84ac2f4874cd57430120f3f8bb2c839b7f5 ;-)
08:44 magnus          ah, i see
08:42 chris           i added it to the agenda for the next irc meetng, so we can come up with some tasks
08:41 chris           cleans up bad styles, badly named scripts/variables etc
08:40 magnus          nice, what does the koha janitor do? ;-)
08:39 chris           on to happier news, we have a volunteer to be koha janitor
08:36 chris           maybe you could mention it in passing if you get the chance, it would be nice of them to point it at koha-community.org
08:35 chris           anyway, this not fruitful, because the person we should be talking to about is not here :)
08:34 chris           sure, but that's their problem, not mine
08:34 paul_p          chris: yes, and me too. But it's not the case for everyone.
08:33 chris           im not going to suspend ethics for monetary concerns, ever
08:33 chris           im concerned with ethical behaviour, thats why i work on free software
08:33 paul_p          chris: right (that's the term I was looking for)
08:32 chris           and i dont suggest demanding, i suggest asking if they made a mistake
08:32 chris           its philosophy and ethics not evangelism
08:31 paul_p          don't misunderstand me : the url problem is a real one. But sometimes it's better to create a good relationship before saying "hey, you made a mistake". At KohaCon, all the ppl we met from PTFS were nice, friendly and we had frankly discussion with them. So, I think instead we should avoid "firing" at JY and try the "friendly" approach. (and the business one : definetly, he's a business man, he's not concerned by FOSS evangelism)
08:31 chris           and i dont see it as a reason for me to stop commenting
08:27 chris           frankly thats his call
08:27 paul_p          I suspect J Yokley  is already "annoyed" by what happends with the acquisition. He is willing to speak with us (BibLibre), I would be disappointed if I meet someone saying : "you're all mad in koha project : LL & everybody else. You're annoying me with very minor details. So, I'll do my path myself, good bye"
08:26 chris           if someone is going to be hostile, we should move on sooner rather than later
08:26 chris           im not prepared to wait for years while they make a mess
08:26 chris           im not making the same mistake we made with liblime
08:25 chris           but i do find it interesting they have just recently changed it
08:24 chris           of course we dont
08:24 paul_p          and in this case, we have strictly NO WAY to prevent them to use kohails of whatever they want.
08:24 chris           if it wasnt a mistake, we see their strategy already
08:24 chris           sure, but if it was a mistake they could fix it pretty easy
08:24 paul_p          if we upset them, we may finish with 3 path, the "PTFS one".
08:23 paul_p          there are 2 known koha strategies today : the "community" one, and the "LibLime" one. For PTFS we don't know what are they plan.
08:23 paul_p          chris: OK, more details :
08:22 chris           what the hell did we complain for the first time then?
08:22 magnus          might be taken more seriously than if it comes from a competitor?
08:22 chris           its harmless?
08:22 paul_p          chris not sure it's a good idea. it's harmless imho, and we are in the middle of a strategic path.
08:22 magnus          someone from hlt, perhaps?
08:21 chris           so someone else might want to email and ask if htey could fix it up please
08:21 chris           might be, so far my emails have been ignored
08:21 paul_p          magnus: yes it is (apache config)
08:21 chris           kohaconsultants.com still redirects to koha.org .. kohails.org no longer does
08:21 magnus          hm, could it be a slip of the apache config?
08:20 chris           it was kohaconsultants.com and kohails.org that we said shouldnt point to that
08:20 chris           yep, thats fine, we said that was ok
08:18 paul_p          oups. I mean : still here & still the same content
08:18 paul_p          koha.ptfs is still here & points to koha.ptfs.com
08:17 paul_p          hi world.
08:16 chris           yeah, fairly recent change, it used to redirect to koha.org .. they must have just changed it
08:15 magnus          ooops...
08:13 chris           well yeah, that was the original reason they werent listed, then the fixed it, .. step backwards
08:12 chilts          hmm, by PTFS too ... not good
08:11 chris           and by interesting i mean very disappointing
08:11 chris           http://www.kohails.org/
08:11 chris           interesting
07:30 chris_n         what's left of it anyway
07:30 chris_n         g'night
07:30 * chris_n       heads off to sleep
06:44 chris           nice weather today, and its friday evening, so all good
06:43 Ropuch          And how's NZ?
06:43 Ropuch          It's quite warm
06:43 Ropuch          Well, not bad
06:41 chris           hi Ropuch, how's poland today?
06:40 Ropuch          Morning #koha
06:35 chris           yeah, theres certainly no shortage
06:33 htaccess        well theres plenty of cleanup to do within files so ill leave that
06:32 chris           but could live with any of them
06:31 chris           i prefer file_name
06:30 chris           if you want you could add that to the to be decided section, and cast a vote one way or the other
06:30 htaccess        file-name vs file_name of fileName
06:30 chris           http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:codingguidelines&s[]=coding&s[]=guidelines#to_be_decided
06:29 chris           not a strict one, actually thats a good point
06:29 htaccess        filname
06:29 htaccess        do you have a name convention?
06:28 chris           yep
