Brain was *fried.* 04:26 druthb (So I went to bed for five hours, then got up and did it *again*.... ) 04:26 cait I hope you don't mean 19 hours again? 04:27 Oak 19 hours again is not nice. it's like punishing your brain and body. and eyes. 04:28 Oak besides, if you can't figure something out after hours of trying, the best idea is to go for a walk :) 04:28 Oak or sleep on it 04:30 cait I agree withOak 04:30 cait go to bed 04:31 druthb If this bib extract I'm running works--and so far, it is--then I'll get it started loading into the test box, and go to bed. 04:45 druthb hooray! It worked. 04:45 * druthb dances off to bed. 04:45 Oak comical 04:45 cait hope she stays there for more than 5 hours 05:00 Rivirin hiya all 05:05 Waylon okay.... hosted servers are liveserver1 and liveserver2, ideally id like to circular replicate... only a office server is used for biblio adding/updates due to the office being on ADSL.. office staff would get fustrated with latency and if adsl goes down, office can still function. Problem with this.. how do i get the updates into the circular replication, without the office being inside the 05:05 Waylon loop? my idea, is a script on liveserver1 gets a list of changed biblios from zebraqueue table, and selects the biblios/biblioitems/items from office server, updates the liveservers with them.... what do you think? 05:08 eythian zebraqueue is cleared when zebra reindexes (I expect), so you'll miss changes. 05:08 eythian I think it'll get terribly out of sync very quickly. 05:09 eythian on the other hand, I'm not sure of another solution 05:09 Waylon Hmm.. so i need to write a sub for change notifications. 05:10 Waylon put it inside modbibliomarc. 05:10 eythian if mysql can do triggers yet, you could have everything that goes into zebraqueue also go into another table 05:12 Waylon yeah.... interesting.. 05:13 eythian although, I'd say try your staff over the ADSL connection. Perhaps have a local squid proxy or something, perhaps it won't be too slow. 05:14 Waylon hmm.. though.. they're moving office.. and will only be able to have wireless.. so even more a bad idea... 05:14 eythian what's wrong with wireless? 05:14 Waylon triggers... could work. 05:15 eythian probably lower latency than ADSL, given telecom keeps the interleave time high 05:16 Waylon not in new zealand.. so i have no idea how reliable. 05:16 eythian oh right 05:16 Judit1 hi, sorry to interrupt 05:17 Judit1 but you know the list you can create inKoha 05:17 Waylon hi, judit1. 05:17 Judit1 if you choose to create a public list, that means it is public to all branches 05:17 Judit1 so patrons from different branches can see it too- sinceit is public 05:18 eythian yes 05:18 eythian unsure if 'IndependentBranches' affects this or not though. 05:19 eythian I think it probably should... 05:19 eythian but whether it does is a different story. 05:19 Judit1 okay 05:19 Judit1 so is there a setting i should check, you are telling 05:20 eythian yes, but beware that that will affect a large amount of how the system behaves. 05:20 eythian so you probably won't actually want to change it. 05:20 Judit1 which tab is this IndependentBranches in? 05:21 eythian not sure. Use the search box :) 05:21 Judit1 okay, thanks for the warning 05:21 eythian I think it's spelt wrong in the pref 05:21 Judit1 No system preferences matched your search for IndependentBranches. 05:21 Judit1 :) 05:21 eythian IndependantBranches 05:22 Judit1 dont prevent it says 05:22 Judit1 staff (but not superlibrarians) from modifying objects (holds, items, patrons, etc.) belonging to other libraries. 05:22 eythian OK 05:22 eythian So basically, yes. Lists in one place are visible elsewhere. 05:22 Judit1 so if that is set to prevent- my list would be public to the branch it created it 05:22 eythian maybe. 05:23 Judit1 :) 05:23 eythian if it was coded like that, and I think it should be, but don't know that it is. 05:24 Judit1 thank you 05:25 Waylon yeah.. triggers will work... could just make it do timestamp, biblio that was changed 05:25 eythian @marc 942$c 05:25 huginn eythian: unknown tag 942$c 05:25 eythian @marc 942 05:25 huginn eythian: unknown tag 942 05:25 Waylon @marc 42 05:25 huginn Waylon: unknown tag 42 05:25 Waylon @marc 47 05:25 huginn Waylon: unknown tag 47 05:27 cait 9xx are local 05:28 cait not marc standard 05:28 Waylon isn't 942 where biblionumbers are stored? 05:28 cait and lists behaviour is not changed by independentbranches - i think public is always public to all. not sure it should be different. 05:28 eythian yeah, I realised that a moment later 05:28 kmkale Namaskar #koha 05:28 cait hi kmkale 05:28 cait :) 05:29 eythian cait: it would seem strange seeing stuff in a library you don't have any access to. But unless someone asks me to change it, I've got plenty to keep me busy :) 05:29 kmkale Namaste cait 05:29 eythian hi kmkale 05:29 kmkale Namaste eythian 05:29 cait eythian: sometimes you might be able to order it 05:29 cait and people will want it to display - so it will get really complicated 05:30 cait and what will you show to people not logged in? 05:30 eythian well, I'd just make it its own syspref or something 05:30 cait lists show always 05:30 eythian hmm, that's a good point 05:34 cait @wunder Konstanz 05:34 huginn cait: The current temperature in Taegerwilen, Taegerwilen, Germany is 19.8�C (7:30 AM CEST on June 29, 2011).

But we've missed it! 06:18 BobB OK, June 29 06:18 kmkale paul_p slef BobB shall we have this meeting today or have it as part of text general irc meeting on July 6th? 06:18 kmkale *next 06:18 slef wahanui: forget a meeting 06:18 wahanui slef: I forgot meeting 06:18 BobB What if we make KohaCon11 a priority agenda item for that meeting? We might get more there? 06:19 kmkale not sure we can if people are not interested :( 06:19 paul_p I think we're here so we could/should have our meeting 06:19 slef I think you'll get more there, but personally my attendance is uncertain. 06:19 paul_p (now) 06:19 kmkale July 6th my attendance is not sure 06:20 paul_p ok, so meeting now, definetly ;-) 06:20 BobB Well, this is an important community event. The community has to be prepared to deal with it, if its listed for discussion. No? 06:20 kmkale ok 06:20 slef I think we're here so we could/should have our meeting and flag up anything we would like to also ask the general irc meeting on July 6th, so even if kmkale is not there, it can be asked. 06:20 kmkale lets move on with the agenda then 06:20 paul_p sleff++ 06:20 BobB Agreed 06:21 paul_p agreed 06:21 kmkale #topic We need to get an idea about who / how many are coming for the Kohacon11 06:22 BobB How many have registered? 06:22 paul_p (note I must leave in 40mn, i've a training this week. Now i'm having breakfast with my laptop... eating french croissant near my keyboard...) 06:22 kmkale I guess kmkale BobB paul_p are certainties ;) 06:22 BobB avec cafe, j'espere 06:22 kmkale BobB: about 130+ 06:22 paul_p Bobb: nope, with chocolate, i don't like coffee. 06:23 BobB Irma and I have not registered yet. But we are coming. Will register this weekend. 06:23 BobB paul_p, that's allowed. 06:23 paul_p do I have registred ? not sure. but i'm coming 06:23 slef 130 registered already? Cool 06:23 BobB 130 is a good number, already 06:24 BobB That's bigger than Wellington and probably Plano too 06:24 BobB So biggest KohaCon yet! 06:24 paul_p kmkale: how many from india, and how many from foreign countries ? 06:24 kmkale Hope so. I was hoping for many more :( 06:25 kmkale http://kohacon11.vpmthane.org/ocs/index.php/k/k11/schedConf/registration see the countrywise graph 06:25 paul_p kmkale: it's in 6 months ! many will register in september I think 06:25 paul_p and maybe we should/could communicate a little bit more on the koha mailing lists, ... 06:25 slef #link http://kohacon11.vpmthane.org/ocs/index.php/k/k11/schedConf/registration 06:25 kmkale #idea communicate more on mailing lists 06:26 kmkale agreed will start doing so 06:26 paul_p which country is NG ? 06:26 paul_p NiGeria ? 06:26 kmkale yes 06:27 kmkale ok. A few people have asked us for formal invitation letters for obtaining visa 06:27 paul_p so, you can remove 20 attendees. I suspect most of them won't have the money to travel. In previous conferences, we had many registrations from Africa, then came the question "can you sponsor my travel"... 06:27 kmkale if anyone needs those please let me know 06:27 paul_p I think we may get a feww ppl from NG or Africa, but not 21 ! 06:28 BobB Visa's were a problem in Wellington. Not for NZ so much, but for people wanting to transit Australia. 06:28 kmkale paul_p: 2 from NG have requested invitation letters. So those 2 look certain 06:28 paul_p well, no one from France, so i haven't registered yet ;-) 06:29 kmkale I am traveling to Kenya next week so will speak about the conference to the library people there :) 06:29 BobB #idea: warn people to arrange their visas early 06:29 BobB kmkale +1 06:29 kmkale BobB: yes. getting visa sorted out early is a good idea 06:29 kmkale ok shall we move on to the next item on the agenda? 06:30 BobB yes 06:30 paul_p OK, i've registered now 06:30 kmkale #topic We need more papers / presentations 06:31 kmkale slef: are you coming? 06:31 kmkale lets discuss 2a also with this topic 06:31 kmkale #idea Since we don't have many papers and there are abstracts waiting to be reviewed for very long, I propose we abolish reviews and accept the abstracts and papers without any review system. 06:31 slef kmkale: not unless we get more clients, or people use http://www.software.coop/info/give/ a lot more. 06:33 kmkale slef: would you like to make a remote presentation if you absolutely cant make it? I think people would like to know about how software.coop works. Its a novelty here 06:33 BobB I think there should be some review. 06:34 BobB I could help with that, but not until August, realistically 06:34 slef kmkale: One of us would, if you think it would be liked. I bought a camera which can be used as a webcam last week, but I have not yet used it as that, so I cannot help with technical requirements yet. 06:34 paul_p I think there should be at least a small review, to eliminate out of topic propositions 06:34 kmkale I have assigned reviewers from people who had registered for the job. But the reviewers have not responded to the review requests or reminders about it 06:35 kmkale so may be you guys can take this pointb up in the general meeting? 06:35 slef kmkale: have I been assigned to review some? 06:35 kmkale that we need reviewers to look at the abstracts? 06:36 paul_p for example, what does "information literacy and lbrary and information science" contains ? 06:36 kmkale slef: you have full admin rights remember? You can self assign if you are interested in any topic 06:36 paul_p sounds very vague to me... 06:36 slef paul_p: needs abstract to know. 06:36 kmkale paul_p: that has been reviewed by Space_Librarian and an updated abstract has been called for 06:37 slef kmkale: I know, but I am unsure if I should do so. 06:37 kmkale slef: please do if you have the time and inclination 06:37 paul_p slef & kmkale : right 06:37 paul_p kmkale: i've registered as "tipaul". Could you give me permission to review pls ? 06:37 kmkale yes paul_p sure 06:38 slef ok 06:38 BobB I'm happy to make a presentation, but I'm struggling to find the right topic. 06:39 BobB An update on my governance paper from Wellington might not be right for the audience 06:39 paul_p as we have more than 1 room, i've suggested kmkale to have one dedicated to "koha demo". With one session=one module (acquisition / circulating / ...) 06:40 kmkale yes paul_p but the conference venue is in a self contained building ghousing the hall and canteen 06:41 kmkale if we need another room / hall it will have to be a separate building 06:41 kmkale is that ok? 06:41 BobB How far away? 06:41 kmkale for hackfest I can get adjoining classrooms 06:41 kmkale BobB: about 50 feet 06:42 BobB Well that's not far 06:42 paul_p so it's nothing (except you must count 15mn between each session to change room/building 06:42 kmkale yes. We can have boards declaring way to conference and way to demo etc 06:43 paul_p kmkale: for the main conference, don't we have 4 rooms already ? /me remember reading or speaking of this previously... 06:44 kmkale paul_p: yes if needed. The main hall can accomodate about 250 06:44 kmkale if we exceed that we can get more halls 06:44 kmkale but all halls are in separate buildings on the campus 06:44 kmkale alll halls are interconnected with polycom 2 way video conferencing uints 06:45 paul_p kmkale: I think it could be usefull to have more than 1 course at a given time. "i'm not interested in Koha circulation module, OK, I go to 'how to migrate from ILS-XXX to Koha' " 06:45 kmkale paul_p: I agree but we dont have enough presenters to fill one hall for three days. if we split the conference will be over in a day 06:45 kmkale :( 06:46 paul_p (of course, this is possible only if we have enough papers ;-) ) 06:46 BobB Then we go to Agra? :) 06:46 paul_p kmkale: don't be too anxious : many more ppl will register and more ppl will propose topics. 06:47 kmkale I request you to take this up in the next general meeting and put out a call or papers and for people to attend 06:47 paul_p we're 6 months ahead from the conference, and geeks don't like to plan too early... 06:47 BobB Yes, but we should also set a timeframe. 06:47 kmkale paul_p: I will ne in Kenya next week. But once I am back 06:47 paul_p kmkale: yep, we will. 06:47 BobB ..for papers at least 06:47 kmkale I plan to send out reminders about the call for papers etc 06:48 paul_p kmkale++ 06:48 kmkale paul_p: I have enrolled you as a riviewer 06:49 BobB I think until there is a draft program, many people won't get motivated to register and make their plans 06:49 kmkale Shall we move on to 3) Start working on conference schedule as per papers / abstracts already submitted or committed that it will be done ? 06:49 kmkale ok that brings us to 3 nicely :) 06:49 kmkale #topic Start working on conference schedule as per papers / abstracts already submitted or committed that it will be done 06:49 kmkale Joann has graciously agreed to do the keynote :) 06:50 kmkale and we have 6 or 7 papers, so shal we start a draft of the program? 06:50 kmkale or is it too early? 06:50 paul_p I agree with bobb. we should start a draft program 06:50 slef if they're different topics, we could 06:50 kmkale slef: they are 06:51 paul_p that will motivate ppl to register and submit papers. 06:51 BobB Before the keynote, will there be some sort of official welcome? 06:51 kmkale BobB: yes 06:52 BobB Cool. Even people from India may not have been to Maharastra before, so some sort of 'welcome to country' would be a nice touch. 06:52 kmkale any ideas about how the program should be arranged? Or should I go ahead and make a draft based on past discussions and papers and send it out on the lists as draft? 06:53 kmkale there *WILL* be some speeches by VPM people at the start for welcome and introductions and also at the end for thanks giving etc I guess 06:53 kmkale we are planning a cultural event on one evening 06:53 paul_p I think there should be a part dedicated to Koha itself (history / features / future), a part dedicated to technical things, and a part dedicated to OpenSource in general (integrating Koha with other OSS) 06:54 kmkale and if we get sponsors a conference dinner 06:54 BobB 1.

I hadn't 08:26 jransom mtj - I'm crashing in on ruth and brooke 08:26 slef I thought I had deleted the schedule time blocks I spent 15mins or so creating earlier 08:26 magnuse oops 08:26 jransom i think we might be staying at vihang 08:27 jransom spending week prior in Goa - well panjim actually 08:27 magnuse jransom: you said something about 3 weeks in india? 08:28 jransom yup. 08:28 jransom spending week in Goa,then week in mumbai then a week catching train to Delhi - Agra etc 08:28 slef jransom: Is the "save the time of the reader" your keynote speech, btw? 08:28 magnuse sounds like a good plan! 08:29 jransom brooke and i are doing a roadie! 08:29 jransom http://www.hotels.com/hotel/details.html?reviewOrder=date_newest_first&roomno=1&departureDate=10-28-11&destinationId=677380&rooms[0].numberOfAdults=2&tab=reviews&arrivalDate=10-23-11&hotelId=307310&validate=false&destination=Panaji%2C+India&tab=description#description 08:29 jransom scrumptious :) 08:29 jransom no - thats another talk i'm doing about making configuration settings from the point of view of getting good results for patron 08:30 jransom i am doing keynote though 08:30 jransom somewhat reluctantly as it is quite daunting preparing something stimulating and inspiring and miivational to this crowd 08:30 magnuse all the talks are 1 hour? that's long... 08:30 jransom i canttalk that long 08:31 jransom i can't even pronounce 'bed' so Paul can understand ! 08:31 slef jransom: ok, I'll deschedule save the time of the reader for now. 08:31 jransom no - i m doing that too 08:31 jransom if you want it 08:31 magnuse hehe, difiniiitli ;-) 08:31 slef yes, we do, but I don't know when :) 08:32 slef I want to publish an outline schedule soon as, so that it encourages more registrations and submissions 08:32 slef @later tell kmkale I found the problem.

I think magnuse's place is fine. What we need is an easy way for people to add to it, I think. 08:57 jransom ok cool. 08:58 jransom lets post it to koha list 08:58 jransom and link to it from koha-community site 08:58 slef actually, if I move that onto http://wiki.koha-community.org/w/index.php?title=Category_talk:KohaCon11 then we get a groovy + button 08:58 slef ok if I do that magnuse ? 08:58 slef I don't like talk pages really, but the + button is useful for this. 08:59 magnuse slef: fine with me! 08:59 magnuse since we don't tend to use tha talk pages much a message to the list might be a good idea 08:59 slef jransom: the link to add a suggestion is http://wiki.koha-community.org/w/index.php?title=Category_talk:KohaCon11&action=edit§ion=new 09:00 slef magnuse++ 09:00 kf magnuse++ indeed :) 09:01 magnuse ooh 09:01 jransom trying to load it .... 09:02 magnuse slef: what's that about a + button? i don't see it... 09:02 slef magnuse: logged in? 09:02 magnuse yup 09:03 slef oh the chuffing nonsense mediawiki bleargh Grr :) 09:03 magnuse hehe 09:03 mib_gle66c hi, how can i display more information in the barcode in koha 09:03 slef ok, I'll go see if I can add a contact form to www.koha-community.org - the rest of you help mib_gle66c please :) 09:05 kf mib_gle66c: can you describe what are you trying to do? 09:07 mib_gle66c I want to display callnumber and itemtype in addition to the barcode number in the barcode layout How can i do it 09:13 mib_gle66c should i edit Label.pm 09:15 slef That sounds like a label templating question. 09:16 slef Have you seen/tried http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-4-manual-en/?ch=x5722#labellayouts ? 09:17 kf which version of koha are you using? 09:19 jransom i jut can't get that link to open to a place where i can type stuff.... 09:19 mib_gle66c koha 3.0.2.06 09:19 jransom wil try tomorrow getting late now 09:19 slef jransom: yeah, I think I've got to add a post to http://koha-community.org then everyone can comment on it for a month 09:20 slef the wiki does not do what I want :( 09:20 slef have I mentioned before how much I dislike mediawiki? ;-) 09:21 slef wikis are meant to be quick and easy (wiki wiki = quick in Hawaiian or something, doesn't it?). mediawiki seems to be neither far too often. :( 09:21 jransom i dislike it intensely too 09:26 kf I dislike it too 09:26 kf I like dokuwiki 09:26 magnuse i like mediawiki... 09:27 kf although the syntax for tables is nice in mediawiki 09:27 eythian what? It's horrific. 09:27 magnuse jransom: what were you trying to do? 09:27 kf you can do some nice things with it - compared to dokuwiki 09:27 kf I like the rest of the dokuwiki syntax better though 09:28 slef @later tell chris_n I'm not sure if SIP 3 is confidential, but I'd need to check quite what the current terms are. At worst, it will be public at some point, the process is not under our control at all, it was a tough slog to get any access, it will happen whether or not we're involved and it seemed better to have one community/third sector organisation involved than none. 09:28 huginn slef: The operation succeeded. 09:28 kf eythian: you are not still at work, aren't you? 09:28 eythian kf: the pmwiki table syntax is nice. You make a table using || and such, and it ends up looking like a table. 09:28 eythian I am 09:28 kf oucch 09:28 slef eythian: RST even simpler isn't it? 09:28 eythian I'm leaving for a workshop tomorrow, so trying to get my laptop in shape. 09:28 eythian slef: never used it. 09:29 slef eythian: you just underline column headings with "===== ===== ====" and so on 09:29 kf never change a running system.. 09:29 eythian yeah, I think pmwiki is similar, although it's been a while. 09:29 slef kf: not never, but don't deny the costs of changing. 09:30 Oak time for class 09:30 Oak later guys 09:30 slef eythian: ah, with RST, I think you don't use || but let it work it out from fixed widths and the column heading underline's spaces. I don't write RST tables that much, though. 09:30 slef bye Oak 09:31 eythian oh right, that could be good too 09:31 kf slef: was talkign about changing to much on a laptop before leaving for a workshop 09:31 kf I have no good experience with such things 09:31 kf :) 09:31 slef kf: oh I was talking about bring back dokuwiki all is forgiven ;-) 09:31 slef kf: transferable skills rock! 09:31 * magnuse had not thought about marc dialects as a problem related to the debian packages. ouch... #marcmustdie 09:32 eythian kf: it's not so much changing, as adding the stuff I'll need for a demo I'm going to give. 09:32 eythian magnuse: yeah, it's a tricky one alright. 09:32 jransom i've got it working - had to validadte my email address 09:32 jransom i'm uploading a gazillion ideas for papers i' 09:32 jransom papers i'd like to listen to 09:32 kf :) 09:33 kf eythian: good luck for your workshop - have fun :) 09:33 magnuse jransom++ 09:33 eythian cheers :) need to do more talk writing too, but there's an 8 hour plane flight for that. 09:34 magnuse eythian: i here i was thinking the translations were the only thing i had to solve... 09:35 eythian No, I'm afraid not :) 09:35 eythian although, I think that the MARC stuff won't be too bad really. 09:35 kf magnuse: start with translations... and worry about marc later? 09:37 magnuse eythian: i guess there is the marcflavor stuff done by Makefile.PL that has to be an option somewhere? 09:38 eythian well, I'd like to know what it actually changes, and just make something that can template away those changes in a way the koha-create script can use. 09:38 magnuse kf: hm, i'd say marcflavor is actually more important, you could start using koha in english then switch to your translation when it is ready. not so easy to change marcflavor... 09:39 kf magnuse: yes, i see that - but I thought that perhaps languages might be a bit easier for the start 09:39 magnuse eythian: i looked at that when i changed Makefile.PL to account for normarc, but i don't remember now 09:39 eythian I suspect it's mostly in the zebra config 09:39 kf hm 09:39 magnuse eythian: yup, it wasn't anything huge ;-) 09:39 magnuse kf: marc might be easier, actually 09:40 magnuse eythian: so you think marcflavor should be an option for koha-create? 09:40 slef I think there's only maybe zebra configs? 09:40 * slef checks Makefile.PL 09:41 slef ZEBRA_MARC_FORMAT 09:43 slef pazpar2 config too 09:43 mib_gle66c Hi <slef> , my requirement is not in the specified link http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-4-manual-en/?ch=x5722#labellayouts ? 09:44 eythian magnuse: yeah, that way you can run usmarc and nomarc side by side 09:44 magnuse cool 09:44 slef mib_gle66c: callnumber and itemtype are shown.

It's pretty much all electric. 09:49 magnuse hehe 09:49 jcamins_away eythian: but we were bumped (voluntarily, since I didn't want us to be split up) yesterday, then our replacement flight was cancelled, and we were put on completely different flights, so I called and complained and they put us on a 6:00am flight. 09:49 eythian erk 09:50 eythian According to the ash forecast, I should be OK for tomorrow's flying. 09:50 jransom that customizing opacs topic crops up quite often actually 09:50 eythian yeah, I'm doing a talk on it for the workshop I'm doing. 09:50 slef "Jay Jordan to retire as OCLC President and CEO" errr, how can a co-op's CEO be its president?

Those are text fields to print, not fields to encode. 09:54 eythian NZ english only has one vowel, you don't need any more. 09:55 slef jransom: the English can't speak English clearly, so why do you want to show us up? 09:55 slef (bloody kiwi ratbags, going over there and taking our language) 09:55 NurAhammad is there any way to show serial logo in opac in format type? 09:56 jransom lol - 1 vowel 09:56 NurAhammad I am maintaining serials with koha 09:57 jransom I am all British descent .... no Maori blood at all ... so really I should learn Queens English - or at least be understandable by other english speaking folk 09:57 jcamins_away NurAhammad: you need to set the Leader. 09:58 NurAhammad but when i search serials in opac it shows book format 09:58 jcamins_away NurAhammad: that means you probably have the Leader wrong. 09:58 NurAhammad is it place 7? 09:58 jcamins_away Either that or it's an item type image, in which case you need to have a different item type for serials. 09:59 eythian it sounds to me like the leader 09:59 jcamins_away Yeah, LDR/07. 10:00 jcamins_away It should be s. 10:00 NurAhammad I set serial item type? 10:00 NurAhammad ok I will try. 10:00 NurAhammad thanks. 10:01 jcamins_away If it's the item type image, you also need to set the images for each itemtype. 10:02 NurAhammad I already set item type image. 10:02 NurAhammad It is basically format image. 10:02 * eythian hates the MARC leader, it's a terrible way of doing what it tries to do. #marcmustdie 10:03 * magnuse agrees 10:04 * jcamins_away , too. 10:04 druthb MARC-- 10:04 jransom slef: are going to post that link to koha list asking for ideas of papers you'd like to see OR to browse the list to see what paper you could present? 10:05 slef NurAhammad: no, not item type, bibliographic/MARC record leader field (tab 0 usually) 10:05 eythian oh good. THe progress bar I was waiting on too 30 minutes to get to 12%. Now it's jumped back to 0. 10:05 eythian *took 10:06 slef jransom: I'll post various links once I've created them.

I'm a bit busy because it's Co-operatives Fortnight here and I'm at events this afternoon and tomorrow morning, on top of my usual workload. 10:06 Judit eythian: you need to watch the progress bar at all the time- it helps, you know 10:06 jransom ok cool 10:07 eythian Judit: heh, it's true 10:07 slef I think it needs a post creating on http://koha-community.org asking for suggestions (anyone want to draft it?), then posting to the mailing list with links to that and the OCS pages for submissions, registration and schedule 10:08 slef Does that sound about right? 10:08 jransom yup. 10:09 jransom if you dont get to it i could look at it tomorrow when i get to work. 10:11 slef that'd be great if you could... get me anything any way you can and I'll move it on... seriously overloaded here today :-/ 10:12 jransom ok - I'll take responsibility for doing that 10:18 eythian I really need a faster netbook 10:18 jransom good night all 10:19 jcamins_away Good night? 10:19 magnuse g'night jransom 10:19 eythian bye! 10:19 jcamins_away When NZ says "good night," I _know_ I'm up too early. 10:20 magnuse hehe 10:32 magnuse wow, wiki pages without categories look weird 10:33 magnuse it's a start: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Gallery_of_customized_OPACs 10:37 eythian time for me to go home and start packing now I think 10:37 magnuse have fun, eythian 10:50 slef time for me to panic-pack too :) 10:50 slef talk to you later/tomorrow 11:10 magnuse have fun, slef 11:19 mib_7m2zm4 I want to display callnumber and itemtype in addition to the barcode number in the barcode layout How can i do it ; I also tried the koha community manual but failed 12:20 gmcharlt @quote random 12:20 huginn gmcharlt: Quote #101: "<darling> I still need to catch up with current Koha.

17:49 gmcharlt wizzyrea: in what sense? 17:50 wizzyrea http://screencast.com/t/PagaCYq5 17:50 wizzyrea what does that mean/denote 17:52 gmcharlt wizzyrea: so in a matching rule, each matchpoint you specify has a score associated with it 17:52 wizzyrea aha, I did not realize 17:53 gmcharlt if the rule has 3 matchpoints, say OCLC #, ISBN, and title 17:53 gmcharlt each can have a score 17:53 gmcharlt say 500 for OCLC#, 300 for ISBN, and 200 for title 17:53 gmcharlt then if a given bib matches an existing one on a particular match point 17:53 gmcharlt that score is added to a total for that bib 17:54 gmcharlt and if the total goes over the threshold for that matching rule, it's considered a full match 17:54 gmcharlt so in my example, if the threshold for the rule were set at 500 17:54 gmcharlt a match *just* on OCLC number would be enough 17:54 wizzyrea aha 17:54 wizzyrea gotya 17:54 gmcharlt otherwise, the match woudl require both ISBN and title to get to 500 17:55 wizzyrea thanks :) 17:56 druthb gmcharlt++ 17:56 wizzyrea is the threshold user configurable? 17:57 gmcharlt wizzyrea: yes, it's part of the overall matching rule definition 17:57 gmcharlt and the actual numbers you assign to thresholds and scores are arbitrary 17:57 wizzyrea o, so it doesn't strictly *mean* something 17:57 wizzyrea a particular number, that is 17:57 gmcharlt right 17:57 gmcharlt my example could easily have involved 5, 3, and 2 17:58 wizzyrea got it. gmcharlt++ thanks for explaining that 17:58 nengard gmcharlt, while you're talking about it can you explain how to make matching rules? 17:58 nengard I don't have much documented on that 17:58 nengard and this is very helpful 17:58 nengard of course you could submit a patch to the manual if you want :) 17:59 gmcharlt nengard: indeed, but I may as well answer your question as well 17:59 gmcharlt so they're set up in Admin | Record Matching Rules, natch 18:00 gmcharlt the matching rule code is whatever you want it to be 18:00 gmcharlt as are the description and threshold 18:00 wizzyrea ooooo 18:00 wizzyrea gmcharlt++ very helpful 18:00 gmcharlt then you can set up as many "match pionts" and "match checks" as you want 18:01 nengard what is a match point and a match check? 18:01 gmcharlt (and if you're *very* special, you can also be typo-free) 18:01 nengard hehe 18:01 nengard i'm never typo free 18:01 gmcharlt a match point says that for the specify tag and subfield (and offset and length if you're talking about a fixed field) 18:01 gmcharlt do a search on the search index specified in the match point 18:01 gmcharlt the search index = just a normal CCL index code 18:02 gmcharlt the incoming bib's tag/subfield are checked 18:02 gmcharlt and the value searched on 18:02 gmcharlt any bibs that are brought up by the search 18:02 gmcharlt get the score specified in the matching point added to the total 18:03 gmcharlt so then all of the match points are checked for an incoming bibs 18:04 gmcharlt and the existing bibs whose total scores are over the threshold are kept for the next phase 18:04 gmcharlt which is the "match check" 18:04 gmcharlt match check two sets of tags/subfields specified 18:04 gmcharlt one for the incoming bib 18:04 gmcharlt one for the existing bib 18:04 gmcharlt and for an existing bib to be retaiend as a match 18:04 gmcharlt it *must* pass the match check 18:05 nengard yikes, this is a lot :) I'm going to see if I can translate it into the manual - and if i do it wrong you're free to fix my mistakes 18:06 nengard for search indexes - are these all of them? http://manual.koha-community.org/3.4/en/kohasearchindexes.html 18:06 nengard or does this list at least look right? 18:06 nengard and do i put the text or the number in for the search index? 18:07 gmcharlt nengard: not that one 18:07 gmcharlt it needs to be one of the ones listed in ccl.properties 18:07 gmcharlt so table 11.1 has the list 18:08 nengard okay - good to know 18:08 nengard does that table look complete?
