The conference is going smoothly, thanks. Strange to have a booth at a conference : you have a lot of time where ppl are listening speech, and suddenly, 200 person arrive, and they have 20mn to discuss before the next speech 10:04 paul_p in fact, this kind of conference is the place where we *must* be, otherwise ppl are wondering "why are they not here, does it mean they are no more interested by us ?" and, OTH, it's not the place where you do real business, you just have lot of contacts... 10:05 magnuse yeah, i have done it twice (first time was with nicomo), and that description sounds very familiar ;-) 10:06 magnuse it's weird to be "on show", but good to get your name and the koha logo "out there" 10:48 huginn New commit(s) needsignoff: [Bug 6025] Script to recreate entries in the statistics table from the issues and oldissues table <http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6025> 10:58 kf i think at bigger conferences it gets a bit better - people make appoitnments to talk about things when speeches are running or plan for free slots to visit the booths 11:08 magnuse wow, did y'all know nicomo is an author? http://www.amazon.com/M%C3%A9moire-vive-r%C3%A9cits-num%C3%A9riques-ebook/dp/B005LB7AII/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1316068787&sr=8-1 11:12 libsysguy So my webserver came under attack yesterday from a botnet which consequently took it down 11:12 libsysguy it looks like they didn't get it but had been trying to bruteforce their way through root literally all day 11:13 libsysguy and I'm wondering if there are any known apache venerabilities that they could have used 11:13 libsysguy because apache was going crazy on that box but when I put up my backup it was fine 11:14 paul_p magnuse, yep, he wanted to write novels since a long time, and has found time ... only after leaving BibLibre ;-) 11:14 magnuse hehe 11:15 kf koha can keep you pretty busy... 11:15 libsysguy ^^ 11:16 libsysguy heck yes it can...I have started neglecting my job to develop for it...which is acceptable for the librarians mind you 11:18 magnuse in pootle - is there a way to see just the suggestions others have made, so i can accept them? 11:18 kf yeah 11:18 kf check the review tab 11:19 kf there is a link 11:19 kf or links 11:19 kf for each file 11:19 kf found it? 11:19 magnuse hm, no 11:20 magnuse is it in the long list that starts "acronyms" etc 11:20 magnuse ? 11:23 magnuse nope, can't see it 11:41 huginn New commit(s) needsignoff: [Bug 6874] File upload in MARC <http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6874> 11:42 kf magnuse: I made a screenshot for you 11:43 kf [off] http://opac.bsz-bw.de/koha_temp/review_suggestions.png 12:12 magnuse kf: thanks a lot. i stil don't see those links, but maybe it's because i have reviewed all the suggestions... 12:15 magnuse and let me just say it's awesome that there are suggestions for norwegian translations! a side effect of my "gratis" offer... ;-) 12:32 kf magnuse: that or you are missing the permission 12:32 kf side_effects++ :) 12:44 oleonard I like the "word-diff" option included here: http://mislav.uniqpath.com/2010/07/git-tips/ 13:44 * slef checks in, peels off the cycling gear and goes to get lunch.

And that's not even the most shocking discovery! 17:42 libsysguy oh yeah becuase I could do qw(:all) 17:43 libsysguy but that is not recommended 17:43 jcamins_away The text was re-set line-for-line. 17:43 sekjal libsysguy: that would bring all the subroutines in C4/Overdues into C4/Circulation.... probably okay, but not worth the CPU cycles 17:48 jcamins_away And, for those of you questioning my conclusions, I checked, and the text does not match that of the 1553 edition. 17:54 libsysguy that fixed it sekjal++ 18:07 sekjal libsysguy: yay! 18:08 libsysguy too bad my fix didn't work like it was supposed to :'( 18:09 jcamins_away I think someone in the printing house sat there laughing gleefully as he came up with ways to stump future bibliographers. 18:56 libsysguy hey sekjal is there a different function for check in if you do the checkbox from the patrons account? 18:57 oleonard Bug 3514 18:57 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3514 major, PATCH-Sent, ---, kyle.m.hall, ASSIGNED , Returning items through patron Details tab doesn't activate all circulation functions 18:57 sekjal libsysguy: not sure; I just know that it doesn't handle holds properly 18:57 sekjal probably because of a lack of message processing, rather than a different subroutine 18:58 libsysguy ohh...hmm 18:58 libsysguy interesting 18:58 wahanui well, interesting is sometimes bad or sometimes good 18:58 libsysguy wahanui: this time bad 18:58 wahanui libsysguy: huh? 18:59 cait hm holds without trnasports seems to work nice 18:59 cait I was doing that a lot lately 18:59 cait returning from there and holds got picked up 18:59 cait perhaps transports are a problem? 19:28 * cait puts a bowl of cookies in the middle of #koha 19:28 cait so silent for a friday 19:28 jcamins_away Mmm. 19:29 * libsysguy takes a cookie 19:29 libsysguy wahanui can you tell us a story? 19:29 wahanui libsysguy: i don't know 19:30 jcamins_away I would love to bake tonight, but unfortunately I have to read the other half of this book on the sons of parish priests in late Imperial Russia. 19:31 cait sounds.... 19:31 cait very academic 19:32 jcamins_away It's pretty fast, thankfully. 19:38 rhcl jcamins_away: are you reading it in old church slavonic? 19:38 rangi morning 19:38 rhcl afternoon 19:39 libsysguy afternoon indeed 19:39 cait morning rangi 19:40 jcamins_away rhcl: nope. Thankfully it's in English. 19:40 rhcl can you read ocs? 19:40 jcamins_away Otherwise finishing the 220 page book between yesterday and today would have been problematic, in light of the fact that I'm out pretty much all day both days. 19:40 jcamins_away Nope. 19:41 cait why are you reading it? 19:41 rhcl http://www.ewrd.com/ewrd/index.asp?gclid=CLrI4d_CoqsCFcsBQAodE2yG7w 19:42 jcamins_away For class. 19:42 andersonbd1 I'm up and running having just installed. I have no data or anything, but I wanted to see how koha acts as an oai-pmh repository because our project (eXtensible catalog) needs to be able to harvest from koha. 19:42 andersonbd1 I enabled oai-pmh here:http://ubuntu:8080/cgi-bin/koha/admin/preferences.pl?tab=web_services 19:43 andersonbd1 and then attempted this query: http://ubuntu:8080/cgi-bin/koha/oai.pl?verb=Identify 19:43 jcamins_away rhcl: perhaps one day I'll take a speed reading course. I'm a pretty fast reader already. 19:43 andersonbd1 but I get a 404 19:44 jcamins_away That doesn't seem right to me. 19:44 andersonbd1 am I using the right url for oai-pmh? do I need to configure it somehow? 19:44 jcamins_away I think it should just be http://ubuntu/... 19:44 jcamins_away I'm not 100% sure, but that just seems wrong, that OAI would be on the staff interface. 19:45 andersonbd1 aha - thanks 19:47 andersonbd1 ok - so now I go to http://ubuntu/cgi-bin/koha/oai.pl?verb=ListMetadataFormats and get http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=SU52snk3 19:48 andersonbd1 what's up with "<metadataNamespace>http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim http://www.loc.gov/ standards/marcxml/schema/MARC21slim</metadataNamespace>" ? 19:49 jcamins_away I don't know anything about OAI, but that sounds like the MARC21slim XML schema namespace? 19:50 jcamins_away (as opposed to the other MARC21 XML schema, I mean) 19:50 andersonbd1 I would expect it to be <metadataNamespace>http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim http://www.loc.gov/ standards/marcxml/schema/MARC21slim</metadataNamespace> 19:50 andersonbd1 whoops - that last copy was wrong 19:51 andersonbd1 I would expect it to be <metadataNamespace>http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim</metadataNamespace> 19:51 jcamins_away Ah. 19:51 jcamins_away Report a bug? 19:51 andersonbd1 ok - will do 19:51 jcamins_away If it is one, and I presume it is since you're finding it problematic. 19:51 andersonbd1 and if it's not - someone will explain why it's not there? 19:52 jcamins_away Right. 19:56 jcamins_away Ugh. This MARC editor. 19:57 jcamins_away I hit Alt-Space (I think), and it followed a link, erasing all my changes. 20:05 jcamins_away One day I will have time to finish my simple cataloging interface, and it will be glorious. 20:05 cait hehe 20:05 jcamins_away Or we'll have DOM indexing so that I don't need to worry about authorities, and I'll start using pianohacker's direct MARC interface. 20:06 jcamins_away That would be glorious, too. 20:07 cait :) 20:09 jcamins_away Has that been committed yet? 20:09 oleonard No 20:10 oleonard I did a quick test, but nothing which could justify a signoff 20:10 * oleonard thinks the ball is in jcamins_away's court ;) 20:11 * jcamins_away thinks chances are not good for it getting into 3.6, then. 20:11 oleonard Besides needing the basic functionality tested, we still need a good way to offer both alternatives to the user 20:11 jcamins_away The only way I could justify the time to test it would be if I could actually use the feature for actual cataloging. 20:12 jcamins_away (and due to the authorities issue, I couldn't) 20:13 jcamins_away Ah, yeah, definitely need to offer an alternative. 20:15 jcamins_away That's right, there was a redirect to access the direct MARC entry page in the first version. 20:19 oleonard Happy weekend #koha 20:20 jcamins_away He sure does sign out quickly. 20:20 cait yep 20:21 jcamins_away Not that I blame him. 20:21 jcamins_away If I got weekends, I'd probably go rushing off to enjoy them too. 20:21 cait aw 20:21 cait you don't enjoy spending time with us? 20:21 jcamins_away No, I do. :) 20:22 jcamins_away But if I had weekends I'd do things like leave the city. 20:24 cait hm
