Time  Nick        Message
23:51 ricardo     Bye "statistician slef"! ;-) Take care
23:51 gregglind   there is a lot there :)  a little too a lot, thus my asking for entry points!
23:50 slef        now I'm really gone :-)
23:50 slef        gregglind: but read the wiki. There's lots there.
23:50 robin       oh, possibly. I just had it open in my browser already.
23:50 gregglind   robin ++
23:50 slef        robin: I thought that moved to the wiki?
23:49 robin       http://blog.triumphovermadness.com/2011/01/setting-up-koha-in-virtual-environment.html <-- gregglind
23:49 gregglind   anyway, I am sure there is lots of low-hanging fruit :)
23:49 gregglind   I tend to like homebrew.  does koha need a recipe?  and I will have to poke virtualbox!
23:48 chris       you just burn it down and start again if you mess soemthing up
23:48 chris       virtual machine is handy
23:48 slef        gregglind: virtualbox would be good... I used fink and it didn't really work right... others have used macports and reported better success
23:48 chris       and install debian squeeze in it, and make your life a million times easier :)
23:47 gregglind   I am sure I can find something that is niggling me
23:47 chris       use virtualbox
23:47 slef        gregglind: run away? ;-)
23:47 gregglind   fair enough!  Any special hints on osx?  I am also very interested in testng
23:47 slef        cait: fibber... it's already late there. night!
23:47 chris       cya cait
23:47 slef        ok, I'm going to watch a film, then zzz
23:47 cait        getting late - bye all :)
23:47 chris       there are a few related to js
23:46 chris       id pick a bug you think you can fix, and have a crack :)
23:45 gregglind   I hear it though, and I don't really know the competitive space that well! I do know librarians, and I met nicole a while back, yada yada
23:45 slef        gregglind: that's the thing, though. I was only kidding about writing a review.
23:44 ricardo     jcamins: Good night (oops... too late)
23:44 jcamins     Good night, #koha
23:44 * ricardo   is googling for "MLIS" and finding the "Master of Library and Information Science" page in Wikipedia. Nice...
23:44 jcamins     Okay, time for me to pack some more.
23:44 gregglind   fair enough
23:44 slef        not a meeting, don't need #link to put it in the minutes
23:43 gregglind   #link https://bitbucket.org/permafacture/django-ils/
23:43 slef        gregglind: it's on my to-look-at list. I'll get to it next month :-/
23:43 ricardo     slef: I don't believe that. Show me the numbers that prove it!  ;-)
23:43 gregglind   yeah, well, I have good cs background as well, and lots of mlis partners so I'm not totally subject-idiotic
23:43 ricardo     slef: LOL!
23:42 slef        gregglind: yes. I think it's on github somewhere.
23:42 chris       you might want to look at any of the bugs that involve js
23:42 slef        help, we're drowning in statisticians
23:42 gregglind   Is there such a thing?
23:42 gregglind   not terribly well yet.
23:42 slef        Write a review of django-ils ;-)
23:42 gregglind   and my background is stats, fwiw.
23:42 chris       how well do you know koha?
23:41 gregglind   so, I mostly do python (though I know perl as well) and js.  What's most useful to tackle?
23:41 slef        I'm being kept busy with strange koha questions, as well as non-koha work (surge of wordpress)
23:41 * magnus    should be asleep now...
23:40 ricardo     slef: Thank you also!
23:40 ricardo     magnus: Thanks for the kind words :)
23:39 magnus      better late than never :-)
23:39 ricardo     But I'm guessing I'll only be able to resume work on that near the end of this month  :-(
23:39 slef        amen
23:39 ricardo     My last "push" was on December ( Approving/fixing +/- 250 strings for the Portuguese "pt-PT" translation for Koha 3.2)
23:38 magnus      sounds all too familiar, ricardo... ;-)
23:38 ricardo     I'm sorry for not being active on the Koha project. Lots of work (at work) with  non-koha related stuff and some more obligations are keeping me busy :-(
23:37 ricardo     magnus: you're welcome :)
23:36 magnus      thanks ricardo
23:36 ricardo     Fixed :)
23:35 Brooke      cheers
23:35 Brooke      I can still catch the end of topgear and the beginning of Hardball if I log.
23:35 slef        like that was a typing error...
23:35 ricardo     "5 January 2010" ;-)
23:35 ricardo     Fixing it, eheh
23:35 ricardo     Typo
23:34 ricardo     AH!
23:34 ricardo     magnus: Looks fine by me!  :)
23:34 magnus      ricardo: it's done: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/General_IRC_Meeting,_2_February_2011 - please feel free to correct any mistakes, though...
23:34 chris       http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/General_IRC_Meeting,_2_February_2011
23:33 ricardo     magnus: Do I set up the wiki page for the next meeting or will you do / are you doing that ?
23:32 magnus      we will probably never know...
23:32 chris       i wonder who douger was
23:31 chris       thanks magnus
23:31 chris       done
23:31 chris       http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/General_IRC_Meeting,_5_January_2011#Minutes
23:31 ricardo     gmcharlt: Hi!  :)
23:31 ricardo     I just read it up there now
23:31 gmcharlt    which reminds me, I need to get the logs shipped to k-c.org
23:30 ricardo     right
23:30 chris       its what debian use
23:30 ricardo     Meetbot
23:30 chris       meetbot
23:30 ricardo     chris: Nice... What's the name of the module?
23:30 chris       gmcharlt installed the module, i just drove it
23:30 ricardo     chris++

23:29 hdl         good night
23:28 * ricardo   sighs with great relief  ;-)
23:28 ricardo     magnus: So, will you edit it? Great, thanks!
23:28 chris       who wants to send out the reminder ?
23:27 chris       cool
23:27 magnus      i'm on it actually
23:27 chris       and then change the dates, and blank of the agenda
23:27 ricardo     chris: LOL! OK, eheh...
23:27 chris       http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/IRC_Meetings

23:26 chris       #agreed next meeting is at 10:00UTC 2nd Feb
23:26 ricardo     Is there already some agenda proposal for the next meeting?

23:24 jcamins     (though I can't promise I'll actually manage to wake up for it)
23:24 cait        +1
23:24 jcamins     No objections from me.
23:23 hdl         (it is a wednesday)
23:23 chris       any objections to the 2nd ... or the time?
23:23 slef        2nd also seems ok
23:23 chris       2nd is ok
23:23 slef        Groundhog Day :)
23:23 hdl         2nd Feb would be better for me
23:23 slef        otherwise I think it's OK for me
23:22 slef        Chinese New Year (Xin-Mao)
23:21 chris       3rd feb? 10:00 utc
23:20 chris       #topic time and date for next meeting
23:19 chris       hokay
23:19 thd         hdl: I could not really find a proper performance RFC but I applied the category to one RFC about circulation.
23:19 hdl         oh yes.
23:18 chris       its a category hdl
23:18 hdl         thd: link to the performance rfc
23:18 hdl         (fot the record)
23:18 chris       and jwagner sent out the reminder email
23:18 thd         hdl: I will post the link when I have sent the message.
23:17 chris       thd++
23:17 chris       excellent thd
23:17 hdl         thd: can you post the link ?
23:17 chris       number 6, is meetings again
23:17 chris       hdl did his task and that branch has been merged
23:17 thd         I am typing the last words for a koha list message to restart the ballot process for copyright license  upgrade.
23:16 thd         It has been there a month now.
23:16 chris       tick
23:16 thd         yes
23:16 chris       thd: you added the category for performance related rfc?
23:15 hdl         thanks Brooke for that
23:15 hdl         paul will call for a meeting soon i think
23:15 Brooke      the page is up, but no one stepped up
23:14 chris       ditto the biblibre qa session?
23:14 chris       meetings on rfc? still to be organised?
23:14 chris       #link http://librarypolice.com/koha-meetings/2010/koha.2010-12-08-10.00.html
23:14 chris       #topic action points from last meeting
23:14 ricardo     Bye Lee!
23:14 nengard     slef - no prob!
23:14 Brooke      cheers
23:14 Lee         okay I gotta go deal with movers... hugs to all
23:14 slef        nengard: just keep a backup of the feeds and I can throw up an aggregator if Yahoo Pipes ever goes wrong.
23:13 chris       #action newsletter moved to 25th, slef and nengard to work on ideas to make it less onerous
23:13 nengard     ricard - the 25th of december issue will need to be done by the 15th of the month! :)
23:13 thd         :)
23:13 nengard     give me something else that works as well and i'll use it
23:13 nengard     thd - i'm not depending on it - i'm using it as a tool
23:13 ricardo     nengard: That's great... That way we can have the "Koha Monthly Newsletter Christmas Special" on the 25th of December!  ;-)
23:13 Lee         here is a tidbit- inspite of the disaster Butte migrated to 3.2.1
23:12 thd         Waring about depending upon non-free Yahoo pipes.
23:12 nengard     23rd your local time zone)
23:12 nengard     so you have until the 23rd to get me content
23:12 nengard     i'll move publication to the 25th of the month instead of the 15th
23:11 nengard     and we'll stay monthly as long as i can keep content coming
23:11 slef        oh sorry, IRC cabal of me nengard and wizzyrea because we need stuff installed ;-)
23:11 * Brooke    was promised initiate status for acquiring candles.
23:11 nengard     in the mean time everyone send me something for a january newsletter
23:11 magnus      +1
23:11 jransom     cabal +1
23:11 nengard     slef i'm up for working with you :)
23:11 slef        nengard: mirrored at http://owu.towers.org.uk/planets/koha/ and http://owu.towers.org.uk/planets/koha/index.rss IIRC
23:10 Lee         ++
23:10 slef        Or maybe the IRC cabal of me and nengard should just do whatever we think best? ;-)
23:10 nengard     not newseltter specific, but koha specific
23:10 nengard     slef there is the yahoo pipe already that does have a lot of content
23:09 slef        Maybe we should run two straw polls? One asking readers if they mind if it becomes bi-monthly; and one asking contributors if they'd set up a feed for contributions?
23:09 Lee         the Koha daily I believe is a twitter feed, isnt Nicole?
23:08 Lee         I would like to see RSS of some of our cohort on the newletter
23:08 Lee         I like the blog feed idea alot
23:08 slef        "the Koha Daily" = some paper.li site?
23:08 Lee         letter
23:07 Lee         like posts to the Koha Daily...used in the newslatter
23:07 slef        So third question here... would contributors be willing to set up a blog feed or category just for articles?
23:07 nengard     a way to gather info automatically
23:07 nengard     that's what slef was talking about
23:07 Lee         is there away to gather stuff that isnt so time sensitive
23:07 nengard     good way to put it jo - i never ever want to be a mother
23:06 chris       for each one
23:06 jransom     completely understyands nicole aversion to 'being the mother'
23:06 chris       state of 3.4
23:06 chris       i could write a regular article
23:06 nengard     fine with
23:06 nengard     I'm find with shifting the date too
23:06 nengard     and nagging to get articles
23:06 nengard     I don't mind doing it monthly if people start sending me content more - i'm not a fan of teeth pulling
23:05 chris       if we shifted to the 24th of the month, you could have a 3.2.x release in each one ;)
23:05 Lee         more spontaneous
23:05 jransom     its a good summary of everything i might have missed
23:05 Lee         but I like the daily on Twitter too
23:05 chris       i like monthly
23:05 jransom     i read it too
23:05 jransom     i prefer it over weekly or quarterly
23:05 Lee         I read it
23:05 slef        jransom: prefer over bi-monthly
23:05 * Brooke    consults her bylctionary for the definition of "is" again.
23:05 chris       perhaps a straw pole on the koha list?
23:05 nengard     all of you ... i thought :)
23:05 slef        nengard: who's the target audience?
23:05 jransom     and prefer over 'what'
23:04 daniel      Do we want to ask who "people" are? Who the target audience is, or is imagined to be?
23:04 slef        First question, do people prefer monthly newsletters?
23:03 slef        to see if the change is worth it to have monthly newsletters continue
23:02 chris       righto
23:02 slef        ah hi... this is something I mentioned here a few weeks ago and we decided to bring it through a meeting
23:02 nengard     I do - and I am - slef thought he could make it stay monthly with some automatiion
23:02 chris       i thought you wanted to reduce it to bi-monthly
23:01 nengard     but it's his ideas
23:01 nengard     he's trying to make my life easier :)
23:01 nengard     nope, that's slef
23:01 chris       nengard: you're up again
23:01 chris       #topic Koha Newsletter automation
23:01 chris       ok, im gonna move on, people can continue this discussion post meeting
22:59 slef        #link http://pages.e-democracy.org/Rules
22:59 chris       gregglind: good point
22:58 chris       slef: that couldnt hurt
22:58 slef        So, we're looking for both. Collect more examples by next meeting?
22:58 gregglind   from working with other orgs, it has been useful to remember that these sorts of docs can be draft/iterate, and tend not to be as  complex as the ylook.
22:58 chris       sounds like there are enough interested parties to make sure something is done
22:57 chris       anyway maybe we should move this to its own discussion? and move on, on the agenda?
22:57 nengard     okay then
22:57 chris       *nod*
22:57 slef        The social contract is what debian wants to achieve.
22:57 nengard     what's the point of the koha project
22:56 nengard     your mission is what you want to achieve
22:56 Brooke      almost a vendory type affirmation
22:56 nengard     i disagree
22:56 chris       mission statement = social contract
22:56 Brooke      that one will morph into
22:56 nengard     based on talks at kohacon
22:56 Brooke      and I suspect
22:56 nengard     plus a mission statement
22:56 Brooke      I think we're doing both
22:56 chris       i think woudl be nice to have both
22:56 nengard     i think both
22:56 slef        Both? One or the other?
22:56 slef        So what are we trying to do here?
22:56 chris       nope they are different beasts
22:55 slef        Well, now, you see, the social contract isn't a code of conduct.
22:55 Brooke      yessir.
22:55 slef        Personally, I like the e-democracy.org rules, but I suspect some things like the anti-mailbombing limit will be a bit harsh.
22:55 chris       just fyi
22:55 chris       if you do the #link bit brooke it formats nicely for the minutes
22:55 chris       #link http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct
22:55 Brooke      http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct
22:55 chris       #link http://www.debian.org/social_contract
22:54 nengard     links were in the agenda - which i don't have open :)
22:54 Lee         Ubuntu and Debian are reliable sources
22:54 slef        Which debian one is being considered?
22:54 Lee         well I am with Nic- no sense in reinventing the wheel
22:54 chris       #action brooke with the help of wizzyrea and others to start on a draft code of conduct/ social contract thingy
22:54 slef        sorry, distracted by the cricket highlights... Bell century :-)
22:53 wizzyrea    ^^ truf
22:53 Brooke      collaboration > flying solo
22:53 wizzyrea    :)
22:53 wizzyrea    ...or that
22:53 wizzyrea    (not that you'd need it, mind you)
22:53 Brooke      hooray, I'll need it.
22:53 wizzyrea    brooke: i'm happy to help too
22:53 chris       slef undoubtedly has some ideas around it also
22:52 Brooke      clearly I just need to try harder.
22:52 hdl         nengard++ Brooke++
22:52 Brooke      I'm just saying, it melted me pea sized brain when I looked at both side by side.
22:52 nengard     great
22:52 * Brooke    might just be someone else.
22:51 nengard     okey dokey, if someone wants to write it great, i'm just trying to move us forward instead of waiting around for someone else to do the work :)
22:51 hdl         reuse templates is good
22:51 thd         Yes, writing is work.
22:51 hdl         it would mean copy paste edit... Which is not a good software desing
22:50 nengard     the work involved
22:50 chris       whats wrong with using its ideas and writing it in our words
22:49 thd         I would hardly expect the Debian document to not have a sufficiently free copyright license unless it is meant to serve as a legal document in which case any copyright license would be moot.
22:49 nengard     what's wrong with using what it says and editing it?
22:49 Brooke      I will try.
22:49 chris       :)
22:49 * Brooke    gulps.
22:49 chris       eh brooke
22:49 chris       well, brooke would probably write it
22:49 nengard     instead of using it as a guide and writing it fresh
22:49 chris       the debian one is commendably short :)
22:49 nengard     well as the one who ends up doing most of the writing, i'm all for copying and changing a few things to meet our needs
22:48 chris       just their ideas
22:48 chris       but i dont think we need to use their words
22:48 chris       easiest way would be to email them and ask id imagine, i think its under their web license
22:47 nengard     did anyone find the licensing on the Debian one?
22:47 nengard     so we can take it and change Ubuntu to Koha and start with that if we want
22:47 nengard     I know the ubuntu on is creative commons
22:46 nengard     at kohacon10 people complained that we had no 'official' rules/guidelines/codes etc
22:46 chris       i like the idea
22:46 nengard     and use these two documents to start creating something a bit more official
22:46 nengard     I thought we should move ahead with that
22:46 nengard     Brooke gave us her three words summary last time
22:46 chris       nengard: you added this?
22:45 chris       #topic Koha Mission/Community Guidelines
22:45 chris       #action chris_n send an email to the devel list if there is anything we need to know about 3.2.x
22:44 chris       no chris_n still, so will leave that
22:44 chris       ok, we should push on, still have lots of agenda
22:44 nengard     i understand
22:44 chris       sometimes thats not feasible, if its 12 patches etc
22:44 * jcamins   agrees with nengard, at least when it's only one.
22:43 * nengard   prefers patches attached (if it matters)
22:43 chris       and then it will be in the queue
22:43 chris       if there are patches ready for that, set it to patch-sent and needs signoff and attach the patches or link to the branch
22:42 munin       04Bug 5579: enhancement, P5, ---, gmcharlt, NEW, Remove items from biblioitems.marcxml
22:42 hdl         http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5579
22:42 chris       #action someone organise a meeting to talk about persistance
22:42 * gregglind perks up at persistence, which could mean lots of thigns
22:41 chris       yep thats up to someone to organise, theres still time for things to get in, code freeze wont be until april
22:41 hdl         What about a persistence meeting, we agreed that we could have one at the beginning of the year.
22:41 chris       its vitally important that everything has a bug, even if that just contains a link to the branch to pull
22:41 chris       basically if its not attached to a bug that i can track, chances are i will miss it
22:40 chris       does it have a bug number?
22:40 hdl         Is it in ?
22:40 hdl         I donot see the remove items branch in your plan.
22:39 chris       thats all i have on 3.4.x ... any questions?
22:38 chris       i will give lots of warning for that though
22:38 chris       early feb, we should be merging the template toolkit work, all things going well
22:37 * Brooke    shudders.
22:37 hdl         Lets have also some deep work done on persistence
22:37 chris       jan 22 is the halfway mark for 3.4.0
22:37 hdl         why not...
22:37 nengard     :)
22:37 chris       so the plan for january, lets get needs signoff under 100 :)
22:36 chris       hokay
22:35 hdl         And then you can use git mergetool
22:35 hdl         it tries to merge and let you solve conflict if there is.
22:34 hdl         nengard: git am -3 is your friend
22:34 chris       #action nengard to ask owen about a tutorial on rebasing others patches
22:34 chris       heres one i prepared earlier
22:34 * nengard   notices that owen isn't here ...
22:34 munin       04Bug 4329: enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, jwagner, ASSIGNED, OPAC search by shelving location option
22:34 chris       http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4329
22:34 nengard     owen would you mind writing up a short tutorial on what you're doing to rebase other people's patches? If I had instructions I'd gladly help out
22:33 chris       or set the status to patch wont apply, and note the conflicts
22:33 chris       work with the person who sent the patch to resolve the conflict
22:33 chris       yes, the person trying to sign off then has 2 options
22:33 chris       yes, some people will have to rebase their patches if they want them to apply, some nice people like owen have been rebasing peoples
22:33 hdl         the patch sent could need conflict solving
22:32 chris       merge to master
22:32 hdl         but some are quite old...
22:32 chris       i create a branch, test that branch
22:32 chris       if they get signed off
22:32 chris       but the vast majority, no, they are a single patch
22:32 chris       for eg 5575
22:32 chris       some might be, they will be noted on the bug if they are
22:31 hdl         chris: all the 167 bugs that you talk about are not in branches are they ?
22:31 chris       so was hard to know what state the patch was in
22:31 chris       the new statuses should help us track them, before we used to just have patch-sent for everything
22:31 chris       branches to merge is a note for me, so i dont forget :)
22:30 chris       they are ones i need to test further myself
22:29 chris       if not then, yes
22:29 chris       if the branch is awaiting_qa/something then no
22:29 hdl         branches to merge are branches that passed qa ?
22:28 hdl         got it
22:27 chris       what i dont think is feasible, is for colin to have to signoff on all those 167 (plus the new ones that come in everyday) by himself
22:27 chris       hdl: often the signoff is good enough, if i dont think it is, i wont push it and note it still needs qa
22:26 cait        send patch, attach to bug, change status to 'needs sign-off' - that's the status the patches in the long list are
22:26 slef        can someone who understands how that relates to branchable and bugs add a new first section "choose a patch to sign off" to that page, please?
22:26 chris       small ones, im willing to sidestep signoff for, if i have to, but id rather that every patch has at least 2 sets of eyes
22:26 hdl         If signed off by someone who tested it then it has to pass qa am i right ?
22:25 chris       what i meant is there are 167 patches that need to be either rejected or signed off
22:25 slef        #link http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Sign_off_on_patches
22:25 chris       if its signed off state
22:24 chris       its passed qa and been signed off
22:24 hdl         that is
22:24 hdl         signedoff/qa
22:24 hdl         you told that state 2 meant
22:24 chris       how do you mean?
22:24 hdl         maybe a better separation between signedoff and rejected for qa would help.
22:23 chris       #link http://koha-releasemanagement.branchable.com/
22:22 chris       does that make sense?
22:22 chris       we currently have 167 sitting at the point of having a patch sent, and awaiting one of those three actions
22:22 ibot        somebody said failed qa was a new status in the pull down - we don't have one for does not apply yet :)
22:22 chris       or failed qa
22:22 chris       does not apply
22:22 ibot        i think signed off is approval
22:22 chris       signed off
22:22 chris       there are 3 ways it can go
22:21 chris       from that state
22:21 chris       see the patch status, on the right, is set to Needs Signoff
22:21 munin       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5449 blocker, PATCH-Sent, ---, brice.sanchez, ASSIGNED, JSON malformed in Koha - Blocker with jQuery 1.4.x
22:21 nengard     signed off means someone has applied it successfully to their install of HEAD and has tested it
22:21 chris       sorry look at bug 5449
22:21 chris       take a look at 5423
22:21 hdl         And qa would mean disapproval ?
22:20 hdl         signed off is approval
22:20 chris       its patch sent, and patch status
22:20 slef        I've been off, this is confusing me, I probably need to go reread some wiki page.
22:20 chris       status doesnt actually matter
22:20 hdl         this is quite confusing
22:20 slef        top link, a lot seem to be in status NEW?
22:19 chris       i meant, signed off by someone or rejected for qa reasons
22:19 chris       not really, signoff or qa
22:18 chris       128 in the 3rd state
22:18 slef        signoff/qa = signoff by QA?
22:18 chris       and the 3rd one, are ones that have been pushed and need to be tested and closed
22:17 chris       2nd one are patches signed off, waiting on me
22:17 chris       top one is patches waiting signoff/qa
22:17 chris       there are 3 links at the top, that are handy
22:17 chris       if you look at http://koha-releasemanagement.branchable.com/
22:17 chris       167 currently
22:16 chris       but we are developing a bit of a backlog of patches waiting signoff
22:16 chris       Ok, work is progressing nicely
22:16 chris       #topic update on 3.4
22:15 hdl         chris not from me
22:15 hdl         Problem would be to add foreign key on pushing to 3.0 maybe.
22:15 chris       anything more on 3.0.x?
22:14 ricardo     slef: Congrats and thanks on explaining my argument much better than I did (seriously!)  :)
22:14 chris       *nod*
22:14 slef        ;-)
22:14 chris       so as long as we say 'i dont think this is a good idea, but if you really really want to, you can'
22:14 slef        Yes, I think it's up to hdl to word his farewell as he thinks fit
22:14 hdl         I would too
22:13 chris       i would strongly recommend people upgrade though
22:13 slef        I don't think anyone will, but they can adopt it if they want.
22:13 chris       slef: we could do that
22:13 jransom     hiya all
22:13 ricardo     slef++
22:13 hdl         But I can leave the door open...
22:13 slef        could we offer it for a group of users+developers to take up maintenance if they want? Just say that it's the end of koha-community's appointed RM because we think people should upgrade to 3.2 soon.
22:13 Lee         hey Jo!
22:12 hdl         It is already
22:12 hdl         taking bugfixes from master to 3.0 would be getting more and more difficult.
22:12 sekjal      Koha is a living entity... doesn't make sense to sit on one version forever (IMHO)
22:12 ricardo     s/featutres/features
22:11 ricardo     chris: I'm only talking about ACCEPTING bugfixes for 3.0.x (not putting new featutres, of course)
22:11 chris       yup
22:11 hdl         And actually is since there are more regula updates.
22:11 chris       having 3 places to fix bugs, just means 3 times as much work
22:11 cait        ricardo: I don't think it's a good thing to stay too long on an old version
22:11 chris       yep, they can stay on 3.0.x but i dont think we should keep releasing versions to it
22:11 hdl         3.2 is assumed to be stable enough.
22:10 hdl         ricardo: the latest release of 3.0 would just to be a clean end.
22:10 ricardo     chris: There are always some people that prefer to stay in their version, and not "risk" an upgrade. So, I guess that I see value in that
22:10 chris       and duplication of work
22:10 chris       all i can see is confusion resulting
22:09 chris       ricardo: do you see any value in maintaining 2 stable branches?
22:09 ricardo     chris: Concerning the end of life of 3.0.x ... Couldn't a "door" be opened if someone wants to be the "Release Maintainer" for 3.0.x ? (and no, I'm NOT proposing myself for the job, eheh...)
22:09 chris       or forward port as the case may be :)
22:08 chris       #idea we should backport features from 3.0.x to master and then to 3.2.x where applicable
22:08 hdl         For overdues.
22:08 hdl         Since there have been some improvements there.
22:08 hdl         But there should be some barckporting of 3.0 bugfixes and features over 3.2
22:08 chris       #action hdl to release 3.0.7 and post and end of life announcement
22:07 hdl         Yes.
22:07 chris       do you have a date in mind for that? and that will be the end of life release for 3.0.x eh?
22:07 ricardo     hdl++  :)
22:07 hdl         But am still willing to release the last 3.0.7
22:06 hdl         An congratulates chris n for being on time
22:06 hdl         I am desperately late.
22:06 chris       hdl: over to you
22:06 chris       #topic Update on 3.0
22:05 chris       ok, lets move on, anyone who hasnt introduced themselves, feel free to do so at anytime

21:37 * wizzyrea  will do that tomorrow, if you'd like
21:37 magnus      wizzyrea: probably a good idea!
21:36 wizzyrea    (similar to what was there before, but not specific to a particular company like the old ones were )
21:36 wizzyrea    magnus: re your latest patch, which i think is great, maybe we should add also dev install examples
21:33 chris       he will be sorry alright, when i assign action points to him
21:32 owen        gotta go, all, sorry to miss the meeting
21:31 chris       its not a high bar
21:31 owen        Oh wait, that was Buffy the Vampire Slayer
21:31 chris       but so does a poke in the eye with a sharp stick
21:31 owen        I see a good mashup there
21:31 chris       yes
21:31 wizzyrea    heh
21:31 owen        Women bounty hunters > Vampires?
21:30 cait        hehe
21:29 chris       does it have vampires?
21:29 owen        Janet Evanovich's Sizzling Sixteen wins for 2010. Is that an improvement?
21:27 wizzyrea    haha ours was Breaking Dawn
21:27 owen        Whoops,  forgot to limit to 2010.
21:26 chris       i fear for us all
21:26 owen        Meyer takes 4 of the top 5
21:26 chris       since when has logic got anything to do with it?
21:25 wizzyrea    nah, it's on the replica
21:25 chris       :)
21:25 chris       you'll probably break cataloguing doing that or somethink
21:25 wizzyrea    i'm running ours now :)
21:25 wizzyrea    chris++ indeed
21:24 owen        chris++
21:24 wizzyrea    oo, shocker
21:24 owen        The winner (after NULL) is Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer
21:24 jcamins     See you all in twenty.
21:23 jcamins     Just enough time to get some empty boxes then.
21:23 chris       yup
21:23 jcamins     Half hour to the meeting?
21:22 wizzyrea    that's a good one chris
21:22 wizzyrea    oooooo

21:18 chris       then group by
21:18 chris       you can do a union
21:17 druthb      hrm.
21:17 owen        I guess I could do it the hard way and look at reserves and old_reserves separately
21:16 druthb      might try to do some kind of select biblionumber,count(*) foolery with old_reserves?  Should be a way to look for a maximal number.
21:16 owen        Can you do a 'group by' across two tables?
21:15 owen        title
21:15 druthb      item, or title?
21:15 owen        anyone have some good sql up their sleeve for finding the most reserved item of the year?
21:13 wizzyrea    anyone know, in the label maker does the search look in the indexes or the db directly

20:49 briceSanc   hdl, thanks for your help !
20:42 ibot        i guess graphicsmagick is avaliable in package form for the following Operating Systems: Version 1.1.11 in Lenny, 1.3.12 in Squeeze, 1.3.5 in Sid and Ubuntu Lucid. Regarding the update message, all Koha functions still work even if you only have Version 1.1.11.
20:42 wizzyrea    graphicsmagick?
20:41 briceSanc   hdl, memcached is off but modperl is on
20:40 hdl         briceSanc: are you using modperl ?
20:40 hdl         briceSanc: are you using memcached ?
20:39 hdl         yes... 3.02.02.001 > 3.02.01.003
20:39 briceSanc   i seems to be ok... i verify
20:39 briceSanc   oh it's weird, the installer disappear after multi-reload
20:38 briceSanc   but the installer stay active
20:37 briceSanc   now when i click on "Continue to log in to Koha", i go to the staff interface
20:37 hdl         is it ok now ?
20:36 briceSanc   Upgrade to 3.02.02.001 done (Fix misspelled 034r subfield in MARC21 Frameworks)
20:36 briceSanc   Upgrade to 3.02.02.000 done (Incrementing version for 3.2.2 release.)
20:36 briceSanc   koha@preprod:~/kohagit/installer/data/mysql$ ./updatedatabase.pl
20:34 briceSanc   hdl, i try
20:33 hdl         have  you tried to launch the updatedatabase via commandline script
20:32 briceSanc   hdl, probably...
20:30 hdl         seems that there is a problem in the update.
20:30 briceSanc   i've made a git pull today
20:29 briceSanc   hdl, my Koha is on 3.2.x head of git
20:29 chris       not the whole file, just the one you want different
20:29 chris       and yes, they could just use the translation tool, you only need to translate one line
20:29 jcamins     [off] owen: maybe another beer?
20:29 hdl         briceSanc: is it < than your kohaversion ?
20:29 chris       ill defer to fredericd as translation manager, but if he says its too hard to translate im happy to reject it
20:28 briceSanc   but in mysql Version =  3.0201003 in systempreferences
20:28 briceSanc   hdl, munin, updatedatabase.pl version is equal to the kohaversion.pl version
20:28 owen        That seems to be an option Liblime/PTFS refuses to entertain
20:28 cait        ok, time to unpack a bit more :)
20:26 cait        people could always use a customized translation too... but not as easy as a syspref
20:26 cait        it's hard to tell
20:26 cait        would not work in japanese - the verb is always at the end of the sentence (just an example)
20:26 owen        I certainly don't mind the work getting rejected if the translation issues are too onerous
20:25 cait        I think german grammar is  not so far away from english sentence structure - but other languages are
20:25 cait        yeah me too - but it makes things more difficult
20:24 owen        In principle I like the idea of making it a system preference
20:24 owen        It's not a trivial amount of javascript but I think it has been done
20:24 cait        does jquery work for the javascript alerts?
20:24 cait        teach people how to use jquery of course
20:23 cait        owen: thx for thinking about translation :) and your concern is correct. but there seems to be no other way to make this pref work...?
20:23 jcamins     [off] I think maybe that's why they're drinking...
20:23 nengard     what's all this keg talk?
20:22 cait        thx jcamins :)
20:22 chris       :)
20:22 owen        Don't worry chris any day now they're going to do a rebase on that Harley stuff and let us know how it goes.
20:22 jcamins     cait: barrels used to hold beer, whisky, and certain other liquors.
20:22 chris       LibLime will also be throwing a LibLime Koha Keg Party in the booth on Saturday January 8th. Stop by the booth to learn more.
20:22 * cait      checks her dictionary
20:21 jcamins     :)
20:21 chris       oh yes i did
20:21 cait        kegs?
20:21 cait        you have them in different parts in pootle, have to figure out which parts belong together... and sometimes you don't have a chance to make it sound right
20:21 chris       i guess ptfs are too busy with kegs to keep their repo up to date
20:21 cait        owen: meaning I could translate that sentence to make sense - but it's harder
20:20 owen        Okay. I was just curious. I've updated PTFS's work on bug 3719 and pushed it to my gitorious repo if anyone is interested in testing it
20:20 cait        the borrower edit form does that a lot - sometimes there is really no way for a good translation this way
20:19 cait        in general chopped sentences are never good
20:19 cait        this construction works - but not sure about other languages
20:19 cait        checking now - give me a minute :)
20:19 owen        cait: Doesn't that kind of construction work badly in German, for instance?
20:19 briceSanc   hdl, thaks i will check that !
20:18 owen        var MSG_RECORD_IN_BASKET = _("This item is already in your")+" <!-- TMPL_VAR NAME="opacbookbagName" -->";
20:17 munin       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3719 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, jwagner, ASSIGNED, Create syspref to allow sites to rename OPAC Cart
20:17 owen        cait: the patch for Bug 3719 introduces some weird template constructions that concerned me with regard to translation
20:17 munin       hdl: The operation succeeded.
20:17 hdl         @later tell briceSanc your problem surely comes from a DBversion badly set in updatedatabase.pl or the version in kohaversion.pl which is over the latest version in updatedatabase.pl
20:17 cait        ok
20:17 lac         chris: indeed
20:17 owen        Hi cait, I was pondering translation issues earlier and wanted your opinion
20:16 cait        yes :)
20:15 owen        cait still around?
20:15 * chris     hopes that makes sense, little about MARC does
20:15 chris       yeah you want 1 field, with 3 subfields .. in that records case anyway
20:15 * chris_n   hands his potatoes to owen
20:14 lac         i guess i didn't fully understand MARC::Field
20:14 chris       might have to tweak your perl script
20:14 chris       so koha makes 3 items
20:13 lac         ah i see
20:13 chris       instead of 1 952, with an a b and p
20:13 chris       you have 3 952
20:13 chris       the problem is
20:12 lac         chris: correct, i used a perl script to generate the marc file and opened it using koha
20:12 chris       and if you choose to save it as marc (on the right hand side) and open it in marcedit, does it have 3 952?
20:11 lac         chris: 3
20:11 chris       and is that marc you have in marcedit the result of saving that record as marc, and opening it in marc edit?
20:11 * owen      goes back to peeling potatoes
20:11 chris       if you go to edit items, does it show 1 there, or 3?
20:11 chris       right
20:11 lac         chris: i'm talking about having 2 ghost items
20:10 lac         oh dear..
20:10 lac         http://i51.tinypic.com/2rr001s.png
20:10 chris       is that the error, or are you talking about having 2 ghost items?
20:09 owen        Please :)
20:09 owen        lac: Right click on that broken image, choose "Copy image location" and paste here
20:08 chris       hi mib_7x2wy, might want to do a /nick something_legible ;)
20:08 mib_7x2wy   could someone explain what might cause this to occur? http://i51.tinypic.com/2rr001s.png
20:07 mib_7x2wy   hello everyone
20:06 briceSanc   Any idea for my problem ?
20:04 jcamins     We're not going to get hauled away for bot baiting, are we?
20:03 ibot        owen: i'm not following you...
20:03 owen        ibot: Throw all your cares away
20:03 owen        if only it were so easy...
20:02 ibot        jcamins: I forgot problem
20:02 jcamins     ibot: forget the problem
20:01 sekjal      he means well....
20:01 nengard     hehe
20:01 owen        Hush ibot
20:01 ibot        somebody said the problem was probably with the email header
20:01 briceSanc   Do you know what is the problem ?
20:00 briceSanc   he returns "Everything went OK, update done."
19:59 sekjal      is the "update your database" portion returning errors?  when you click to upgrade, what is the output?
19:59 briceSanc   but when i click on "Continue to log in to Koha", he returns to /cgi-bin/koha/installer/install.pl?step=3
19:59 briceSanc   he write "Continue to log in to Koha" ( /cgi-bin/koha/installer/install.pl?step=3&op=updatestructure )
19:58 briceSanc   when i "update your database" ( /cgi-bin/koha/installer/install.pl?step=3 )
19:57 briceSanc   yes, the installer runs in loop
19:56 owen        briceSanc: Can you give us more information?
19:52 briceSanc   i've a problem with my Koha, i can't finish an update from git
19:50 chris       hi briceSanc
19:48 cait        happy new year briceSanc
19:48 briceSanc   Hello all ! Happy new year !
19:42 magnus      no output at all, that i can see
19:42 magnus      no
19:42 gmcharlt    magnus: I gather that marcedit isn't producing partial output that would give you a hint?
19:41 magnus      i'm trying to do a character conversion in marcedit but it fails silently on some files - is there a better way to debug than to chop the failing files in half recursively to find the offending record(s)?
19:40 sekjal      thanks, gmcharlt
19:36 gmcharlt    one thing to note that SSLRequireSSL implies use of mod_ssl; mod_gnutls doesn't have a direct equivalent
19:36 pastebot    "gmcharlt" at 68.101.78.67 pasted "sekjal: the relevant bit from EG's Apache config" (6 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/118
19:34 gmcharlt    or move some of the scripts about (to make URL rewriting easier) and have /opac/ and /opac/secure/
19:32 chris       make the fbi earn their money
19:32 chris       once you are placing holds etc, that may as well be encrypted too
19:31 chris       id like that once you are logged in, its ssl, before you are logged in its http
19:30 sekjal      gmcharlt:  thanks, I'll take a peek
19:30 gmcharlt    sekjal: you may want to take a look at how Evergreen handles using SSL for patron login and display in the OPAC and regular HTTP for everything else
19:20 sekjal      ok
19:20 chris       if just for the OPAC id put it in there
19:20 sekjal      just OPAC
19:20 chris       is it just for the OPAC, or for both sites?

19:09 chris       http://peoplescoffee.co.nz/our-people/ they are nice people, yeah, and unlike starbucks they dont steal coffee :)
19:09 jcamins     magnus: sounds like they don't steal coffee after all.
19:08 chris       its cool, they visit where the beans are grown, make sure the growers are treated well etc
19:07 magnus      ah, i see ;-)

18:09 jcamins_a   Bleck.
18:08 sekjal      not seeing a GitWeb instance
18:07 jcamins_a   Does OSS have a browsable git repository?
18:02 sekjal      yes, that would make more sense
18:01 magnus      cool! but perhaps it could be on the wiki or in the manual too?
17:56 sekjal      magnus: I'll see where I can drop that into the commit
17:56 sekjal      it's pretty easy to do the staff client over https, but since you want to have parts of the OPAC secure and parts free (presumably), there needs to be some mechanism in the coding
17:56 magnus      and perhaps someone could document the config for e.g. apache somewhere too?
17:55 magnus      ah, i see - that sounds cool!
17:55 sekjal      but, I've development that, if you've got a parallel OPAC running over https, will allow you to toggle whether to use that site for OPAC login
17:53 sekjal      you have to run the OPAC over SSL with Apache configs
17:53 sekjal      magnus:  yes, it is
17:51 magnus      isn't that more a question of server config than a question of koha features?

16:32 hdl         But there are already many examples of that.
16:32 hdl         owen: sure... hebrew and arabic have a very different way to structure things.
16:31 * owen      should have this conversation when cait is here
16:31 owen        I suppose there must be many existing examples of that anyway
16:31 owen        hdl: That works for that particular case, but I still think we're left with constructions that don't translate well
16:29 hdl         congrats bywatersolutions

16:27 owen        _("Your")+" "+<!-- TMPL_VAR NAME="opacbookbagName" -->+" "+"_("is currently empty"); is even worse
16:24 sekjal      owen:  it is a bit restrictive
16:21 owen        But even if I change it to var MSG_RECORD_IN_BASKET = _("This item is already in your ')+<!-- TMPL_VAR NAME="opacbookbagName" -->; it is too rigid a sentence structure isn't it?
16:19 hdl         get TMPL_VAR out of that.
16:19 hdl         owen: you are right.
16:18 * owen      images that kind of construction is bad for many languages
16:17 owen        Is it valid to put the TMPL_VAR inside the _() function?

16:04 hdl         congrats jcamins
16:04 jcamins     Thanks.
16:04 druthb      congrats, jcamins!    :)
16:04 jcamins     Well, brendan, Nate, nengard, and sekjal knew.
16:03 * owen      thought maybe #koha had the inside story
16:03 owen        bywater++
16:03 jcamins     owen: probably not, given how quickly you saw the press release.
16:02 jcamins     Thanks.
16:02 owen        Congratulations jcamins !
16:02 owen        Oh, am I the last the learn this? http://bywatersolutions.com/?p=883
16:00 wizzyrea    but they update their firefox and we have to do it all over again
16:00 wizzyrea    we've done that.
15:59 ibot        owen: that doesn't look right
15:59 owen        Change your browser configuration instead
15:59 wizzyrea    I'm wondering about the merits of putting autocomplete="off" on those fields most likely to generate this issue
15:58 wizzyrea    browser autocompletes
15:58 wizzyrea    so we've had instances in our libraries where due to latency somewhere, the barcode scanned autocompletes and a different item or different patron is brought up
15:58 wizzyrea    (not js autocomplete)
15:57 wizzyrea    (browser autocomplete)
15:57 wizzyrea    owen, question about autocomplete
15:57 owen        nengard++
15:57 nengard     owen i'm off to check on the others you submitted to sign off on them if possible :)
15:57 nengard     sekjal i signed off on that patch
15:55 magnus      \o
15:54 drotsk      o/
15:49 sekjal      not yet... but I'll take a further look in my followup
15:46 owen        sekjal: Any luck with the AND vs. OR problem I commented on?
15:45 sekjal      I think I may need to do a followup
15:44 sekjal      okay, I've got a rebased version of PTFS's 'opac search by location code', but it just applies universally; there is no sys pref to toggle it.  It also only applies to the OPAC adv search
15:41 owen        I resubmitted a few today that failed to merge when I was rebasing yesterday
15:41 nengard     i like seeing patches from you - cause i can pretty much sign off on any of them - cause i know how  to test them
15:35 owen        Thanks!
15:35 nengard     ps i like the lists changes owen
15:34 nengard     thanks
15:34 nengard     sending again
15:34 jcamins     Yeah, that might be why.
15:33 nengard     :)
15:33 nengard     i forgot git add!!!!
15:33 jcamins     Hm. You can git add and git commit --amend as many times as you want.
15:33 nengard     but for some reason git doesn't think i did that ... so i skipped a step
15:32 nengard     and signed off
15:32 nengard     jcamins, i know what the difference is and what the status is - but what step did i miss - I committed my changes with an --amend
15:32 jcamins     nengard: git status, rather
15:32 jcamins     nengard: git diff
15:31 nengard     my git repo now says i have uncommited changes ... but when i look at the signed off patch the whitespace is gone ... ideas?
15:31 sekjal      jwagner: gotcha
15:31 munin       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3347 minor, PATCH-Sent, ---, oleonard, ASSIGNED, Inconsistencies with tables in opac-shelves.tmpl
15:31 nengard     signed off on bug 3347 after i fixed a whitespace error, but i'm not sure i did it right
15:31 jwagner     Gotta go catch a plane now....
15:31 jwagner     sekjal and anyone else, if you would update the wiki page when you do one, that would help keep track of things. Thanks
15:31 owen        Yes
15:31 nengard     owen around?
15:31 sekjal      I'll get that patch attached to the bug report once it's complete; save you one, at least
15:30 jwagner     I've been meaning to update the integration page at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/PTFSHarleyIntegration -- I know some things have been updated or pushed
15:30 munin       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4329 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, jwagner, ASSIGNED, OPAC search by shelving location option
15:30 sekjal      jwagner:  I'm actually working on a rebase of one the Harley branches right now, for bug 4329
15:30 jwagner     When I get back, and when I have some of that mythical free time :-(
15:29 nengard     jwagner when you update those bugzilla reports, just attach the patch, it's more likely to get someone to look at it and sign off on it if they don't have to hunt down the patch in a repo
15:29 nengard     3 more tutorial videos in the can :)
15:21 munin       jwagner: The operation succeeded.
15:21 jwagner     @later tell nengard The github site apparently had a server down. Our public repo address seems to have changed to https://github.com/ptfs/Koha-PTFS -- I'm leaving on travel & won't have time to update the bugzilla entries until I get back.

15:01 magnus      good evening, #koha
14:31 * druthb    watches for the instant replay.
14:31 * owen      will have to consult the judges
14:29 gmcharlt    heh - I know I did patch-pushing from a plane once or twice; not sure if I actually submitted a new patch while in flight
14:28 owen        Yes
14:28 gmcharlt    owen: does doing that last year count?
14:17 owen        Prize to the first person to submit a patch from a plane
14:13 Nate        Im in a plane!!!
14:13 * jcamins   squints and waves
14:12 Nate        Hiya!
14:11 * druthb    waves to Nate.
13:50 druthb      hi, jcamins! :D
13:49 jcamins     Good morning, owen and druthb.
13:48 druthb      hi, owen! :)

13:41 owen        Hi #koha
13:34 jcamins     chris++
13:34 jcamins     Yep.
13:28 nengard     oh cool - that happens everytime I do a commit? :)
13:28 hudsonbot   Starting build 23 for job Koha_Docs_Master_Branch (previous build: SUCCESS)
12:47 cait        bye
10:52 cait        yeah, just saying it's a bit scary for me :)
10:51 hdl         just as any script in Koha
10:48 cait        we need to make some changes to overdues, it's on my dev list. but overdue_notices.pl is about 13 pages if you print it
10:48 cait        I talked to chris about it some time ago
10:47 cait        I think a lot of overdue notices should be in c4 anyway
10:46 hdl         (And actually, code was copy paste edit of previous overdue_notices.pl)
10:45 hdl         It is so close to overdue_notices that it should have shared code
10:44 cait        and not using the digest means sending one notice for each item
10:44 cait        you have 5 items due today... I think there is no possibility to list them in the digest
10:43 cait        with <<count>>
10:43 cait        we only use the digest
10:43 cait        yep
10:41 hdl         Is it working ok for you ?
10:41 cait        to send pre due and due messages
10:41 cait        yeah I think we use it
10:41 cait        hi hdl
10:40 hdl         Anyone using advance_notices.pl ?
10:40 hdl         hi cait
10:35 cait        hi #koha
09:22 chris       they just dont worry as much about lying as we do
09:22 chris       paul_p: the truth is, the stats are unreliable for proprietary too
09:19 Amit        hdl: meeting confirm monday 8:30 UTC
09:18 paul_p      chris: the problem with FLOSS is that it is hard to have reliable stats. that's a weakness [I think from a marketing pov]
09:15 chris       i tried to make that point in my comments
09:15 chris       the problem is mbreeding talks about it, as if it has some statistically value
09:15 chris       which is fine, as long as people are aware of the fact its only a very small sample
09:14 chris       yeah, same with catalyst
09:09 paul_p      hi chris, thanks for the url. I haven't seen it yet though i've seen the lwc reports on twitter. BibLibre highly under-represented :\
09:01 chris       hdl and paul_p have you read http://blog.ecorrado.us/2010/12/31/ilsturnover/ ?
