22:44 jcamins_away         Reminders did seem to help with 7284, didn't they?
22:44 jcamins_away         lol
22:42 ibeardslee           rangi: wow, didn't know that.
21:55 rangi                have good weekends all
21:55 rangi                30th anniversary of wellington becoming nuke free
21:54 rangi                ok, off to hang out with the hippies and peaceniks
21:52 wizzyrea             could be
21:52 rangi                it could be just that wordpress forms were(are?) used a lot to spam through
21:48 wizzyrea             it would be nice to know why people think it's spam
21:48 wizzyrea             do lmk if you see a lot of that though
21:48 slef                 biab
21:47 slef                 wizzyrea++
21:47 wizzyrea             i'm efficient like that ;)
21:47 rangi                :)
21:47 slef                 questions answered before they're asked :)
21:47 slef                 wizzyrea: can you se... right, thanks.
21:47 wizzyrea             and looks like it technically sent ok
21:47 wizzyrea             slef, must be spam catching - it's not stuck in the queue
21:43 * slef               has been postmaster almost as long as webmaster
21:43 slef                 ec2-174-129-1-205.compute-1.amazonaws.com, but it's still good
21:42 wizzyrea             oh good so it's not *that*
21:42 slef                 yeah, there's reverse DNS
21:42 rangi                and yeah, running your workmail through gmail .. not something id do
21:42 slef                 I'll check
21:42 wizzyrea             I just don't recall if I *did* or not.
21:41 wizzyrea             well, not SO hard.
21:41 wizzyrea             ah yea it might be spam related - it's ec2 so hard to get reverse DNS for it
21:41 rangi                but yes moved to gmail
21:40 rangi                well it started off zimbra
21:40 slef                 rangi: I bet you loved using gmail at a previous workplace...
21:40 rangi                yup
21:40 slef                 and that folks is why I hate outsourced anti-spam. It's too often out of control rubbish that causes trouble.
21:39 slef                 I bet it traps wordpress forms
21:39 slef                 they're both using outsourced anti-spam
21:38 slef                 no rush. I've remailed them the info
21:38 slef                 but the recipient email addresses are with you now
21:36 slef                 except I'm an idiot and deleted the form times and IPs
21:34 wizzyrea             (but it's almost time for me to go, just fyi - gotta pick up the kiddo)
21:34 wizzyrea             sure I can check
21:32 slef                 mailing them and grabbing times and IPs to message you
21:32 slef                 form settings look OK
21:32 slef                 wizzyrea: 2 people report not getting the sponsor form autoreply today. I'm going to check the form settings, but are you able to check the webserver mail logs if needed?
21:31 rangi                on its way
21:29 rangi                good idea
21:29 rangi                ahh yes
21:29 slef                 yes it's a good idea. I really must repost this one to LIS-KOHA too
21:28 rangi                ill try to sign off your new_bib thing this evening too slef
21:27 rangi                :)
21:27 wizzyrea             HINT HINT NUDGE NUDGE
21:27 wizzyrea             see how it worked for jcamins and his authorities dev? ;)
21:27 wizzyrea             more reminders are never a bad idea
21:27 rangi                think it's a good idea?
21:26 rangi                7 days until call for papers close
21:26 rangi                i might send another mail to the list
21:26 rangi                sweet as
21:26 slef                 not sure. I need to count up but haven't had chance today
21:24 rangi                how are we looking numbers wise for speakers now? i figure we need about 7 per day? (of conf itself)
21:23 rangi                hmm a couple?
21:22 slef                 how many do you want?
21:22 slef                 erm not sure. probably.
21:22 rangi                excellent!
21:22 rangi                oh, kohacon, anymore things you want me to review
21:21 slef                 or something I stuffed up on sponsorship... 2 so far today
21:21 slef                 new_bib?items=1 maybe?
21:20 slef                 hehehe
21:19 rangi                cant remember, mustnt have been important
21:16 slef                 rangi: no. why?
20:16 oleonard             :)
20:16 cait                 and meaning it too :)

19:59 nengard              @later tell paul_p i finished the help files and they're attached to bug 7936 Thanks!!
19:57 cait                 lol
19:57 rangi                i have that effect
19:57 cait                 dpavlin++

19:47 rangi                slef: about?
19:35 rangi                https://kohakenya.wordpress.com/2012/03/20/r-i-p-the-kardex/
19:31 jcamins              Hehe.
19:31 wahanui              morning is a state of mind. or whenever the cat wants breakfast.
19:31 jcamins              Morning.
19:31 wahanui              i guess Morning is a state of mind. or whenever the cat wants breakfast.
19:31 jcamins              Morning?
19:31 jcamins              Morning
19:31 wahanui              okay, druthb.
19:31 druthb               morning is also whenever the cat wants breakfast.
19:31 jcamins              JesseM: you could make it into a turing machine by using a wall of card catalogs for the game of life.
19:30 wahanui              morning is a state of mind.
19:30 jcamins              Morning.
19:29 druthb               hi, rangi! :)
19:28 cait                 morning rangi
19:28 rangi                morning
19:27 JesseM               Card Catalogs still have a use!   :P http://vimeo.com/39461899
19:16 cait                 but yeah, only works if you are logged in
19:16 cait                 oleonard: agreed
19:12 oleonard             Ugh, it's a mess.
19:04 oleonard             And if AnonSuggestions is off, should I have to be logged in to view others' suggestions?
19:04 oleonard             If AnonSuggestions and OPACViewOthersSuggestions are both on shouldn't I be able to see all suggestions even if I'm not logged in?
19:03 oleonard             OPACViewOthersSuggestions doesn't seem to be working as I imagine it should
18:53 jcamins              We should put the items table on the MARC and Labelled MARC views in the staff client, now that it no longer shows up in the MARC.
18:47 nengard              :)
18:43 jcamins              Oh.
18:43 jcamins              Yes?
18:43 cait                 you can see it in the koha-to-marc-mappings
18:43 cait                 not controlfields
18:43 nengard              thanks cait
18:43 cait                 you cna only map fields
18:43 cait                 260
18:43 nengard              hehe
18:42 wahanui              somebody said jcamins was an outstanding cook, well-traveled and brilliant, trying to think of a solution, or the wizard that forges queries in the deep fires of zebra
18:42 nengard              jcamins?
18:39 nengard              the 008 or the 260?
18:39 nengard              what field populates the biblio.copyrightdate field?
18:34 jcamins              It would also force people to provde help files when they add new features.
18:34 nengard              maybe someone could :) not sure if I could
18:34 jcamins              nengard: I bet you could write a unit test for xt/ that would check automatically that everything had a help file.
18:24 nengard              we might need some new help files ? hopefully not
18:24 nengard              at the very least all the links to the manual are updated
18:23 nengard              i think i'm done with the help files
18:20 * jcamins            uses irssi, the ultimate in unobtrusive messaging.
18:19 cait                 hehe
18:19 talljoy              may need to update that to "enjoys seeing her name in lights"  lol
18:19 wahanui              I CRUNCH DATA or kicking butt at words with friends
18:19 talljoy              talljoy?
18:19 jcamins              oleonard: stop picking on talljoy.
18:19 druthb               oleonard: That talljoy is pretty darn amazing, isn't she?
18:19 talljoy              ping
18:19 talljoy              ping ping
18:19 talljoy              lol
18:19 oleonard             Everyone be considerate to talljoy and only say talljoy's name when you really have something to say to talljoy
18:18 talljoy              my pings and pings and pings all day.  whenever you say my name!  heh
18:17 * druthb             can't hardly use Mibbit--the message boxes are a little *too* unobtrusive;  I have my Pidgin set to scream like a banshee when someone PMs me.
18:16 talljoy              :-D
18:16 druthb               :)
18:16 YoungPublicLibrarian druthb: LOL! Why yes I am! But they aren't flashing, just grey tabs showed up...and I was completely oblivious to them!
18:14 druthb               YoungPublicLibrarian: you're using Mibbit to chat with us in here, aren't you?  Look up there^^^  there's *at least* one box flashing, indicating private messages for you.  :)
18:12 YoungPublicLibrarian yes, circ assistants do shelving, circ desk, computer support, and anything else needed in the library....
18:12 * druthb             nods
18:12 talljoy              right.  and no fines
18:11 jcamins              druthb: because the Koha offline circ won't catch holds anyway.
18:11 talljoy              right, i guess i was referring to the offline Koha circulation.
18:11 jcamins              druthb: yeah, but they can't reshelve anything anyway.
18:10 druthb               jcamins, wizzyrea, talljoy:  Part of the problem with using Voyager offline circ, as I understand it from George at Latah, is that it only does checkouts--not checkins.  *INSANE*
18:10 * druthb             catches up from the logs.
18:08 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: and the circ assistants do shelving?
18:07 YoungPublicLibrarian We don't...there are cataloguers and circulation assistants...most of our libraries do not use pages...
18:04 talljoy              hi druthb!
18:04 druthb               o/
18:03 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: who do you have for pages in your public libraries?
18:02 YoungPublicLibrarian That's not a bad idea...except it would be bring your "grand child" to work week! And only our school libraries have high schoolers for pages...Which is only about a third of our system...
17:56 jcamins              I am not entirely joking.
17:53 talljoy              LOL
17:53 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: make the next week "bring your child to work week."
17:53 talljoy              had to create graphs for his science project.  he had to teach me.
17:53 jcamins              There you go.
17:53 talljoy              my 8 year old knows spreadsheets better than me.  lol
17:53 jcamins              Maybe even elementary or middle school, though I don't know anyone who has been to either of those recently.
17:52 jcamins              Increasingly, using spreadsheets is a skill taught in highschool.
17:52 jcamins              talljoy_away: most of them will be able to figure out Excel, at least.
17:52 wizzyrea             at least trained in excel.
17:51 talljoy_away         ha! more tech savvy than their elders often!
17:51 jcamins              Have them at the circ desks.
17:51 jcamins              They're probably there during your peak periods.
17:51 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: here's a suggestion: you have highschoolers as pages in a bunch of your libraries, right?
17:50 talljoy_away         YoungPublicLibrarian: hi!  if you plan to use the offline circ tool, you will need a borrowers.db file and that can be given to you before your official go live date.
17:47 jcamins              Right.
17:47 wizzyrea             and no one will know how to use offline circ.
17:47 jcamins              Except some people will know how to use spreadsheets.
17:47 wizzyrea             they're about equal.
17:47 wizzyrea             and really, confusion wise
17:47 wizzyrea             well, you've got two options - get the data and processes right, or use the offline circ
17:47 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: I don't think the offline circ option would be *easier*.
17:45 YoungPublicLibrarian It would take me 10 minutes to explain how to set up and use just the columns to most of the people in my library alone...
17:44 wizzyrea             responsibly.
17:44 wizzyrea             like riding a motorcycle.
17:44 wizzyrea             go slowly, be aware.
17:44 wizzyrea             yea, no crazy scanning.
17:44 cait                 but always be careful... whatever you use
17:44 wizzyrea             we like spreadsheets because the data is segregated
17:43 cait                 and scan the barcodes in there
17:43 wizzyrea             that has been done too
17:43 cait                 one for returns and one for checouts
17:43 cait                 you could also use 2 text files
17:43 cait                 hm
17:43 wizzyrea             and you won't miss things.
17:43 wizzyrea             but it will work
17:43 wizzyrea             it'll take a while
17:43 wizzyrea             it's tedious.
17:43 wizzyrea             and go at it, copy/paste style.
17:43 wizzyrea             then, when you are ready to replay them, you grab a page
17:42 wizzyrea             returns can go in column d or e or f or wherever
17:42 wizzyrea             column b: book barcode
17:42 wizzyrea             column A: patron
17:42 wizzyrea             here's what we do
17:42 YoungPublicLibrarian And very few people in at least half the libraries in our system have any decent understanding of spreadsheets...:S
17:40 jcamins              A week is a *long* time, though.
17:39 jcamins              I think spreadsheets are the way to go.
17:39 wizzyrea             yikes.
17:38 YoungPublicLibrarian We haven't been able to catalogue in almost three weeks! :(
17:38 YoungPublicLibrarian ^^ Exactly!
17:38 jcamins              wizzyrea: right, so it only has to be up for one day.
17:38 wizzyrea             jcamins: I think their server is like, deaths door crashing
17:38 jcamins              And I have no idea how long replaying offline circs takes in Voyager.
17:38 * jcamins            hasn't tried that.
17:37 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: you might try using Voyager's offline circ, then shut down the OPAC a day early, and spend that day replaying the circs so that you can give ByWater a current dump?
17:37 wizzyrea             no renewals, no holds processed, no fines processed (or it would be very messy if it was)
17:37 wizzyrea             it's just - a week is a long time, you probably have pretty high volume
17:37 wizzyrea             really don't
17:37 wizzyrea             I don't mean to sound negative - I don
17:36 YoungPublicLibrarian Wizzyrea and Jcamins: Thanks for all the help! At least I understand a bit more than I did before!
17:36 YoungPublicLibrarian Yeah, a mess sums up the entire situation! :/
17:35 wizzyrea             yep, that's the version I last tested.
17:35 wizzyrea             sounds like a mess
17:35 YoungPublicLibrarian Here is the link that ByWater provided us: http://millruntech.com/downloads/koha-offline-circulation/windows/19-koha-offline-circulation-1-2-setup
17:35 wizzyrea             not to mention not updating
17:35 jcamins              wizzyrea: looks like it was last updated in October 2010.
17:35 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: even if that supports fine collection, the reason I had in mind that you couldn't collect fines was that until ByWater gets the final dump from your Voyager database, the fine information in Koha will be unreliable.
17:35 wizzyrea             but that has been a while
17:34 wizzyrea             i haven't used the app one lately, last time I tested it, it was broken in ways that made me not want to use it.
17:33 YoungPublicLibrarian We have over 70 libraries...but I'm sure we could manage it...
17:33 wizzyrea             do note, we have 40 libraries, and we use a spreadsheet.
17:33 YoungPublicLibrarian Ah, no ByWater told us never to use the firefox addon because it was broke. They have a downloadable tool that we install on the computer and use as an application...
17:32 wizzyrea             at least not using the firefox addon
17:32 wizzyrea             I saw no place to collect fines.
17:32 * wizzyrea           was just looking at it
17:31 wizzyrea             all of the usual things happen.
17:31 YoungPublicLibrarian I thought you could use the offline circ for collecting fines?
17:31 wizzyrea             because then, when you go back and put the data in on your live system
17:31 wizzyrea             and checkins
17:31 wizzyrea             and track renewals in a separate file
17:31 jcamins              ^^
17:31 wizzyrea             in some ways it might be better to just use a spreadsheet, and track cards/items that way
17:31 jcamins              Probably no reshelving, due to the holds issue.
17:30 jcamins              No collecting fines.
17:30 wizzyrea             right, and no adding patrons, no deleting patrons
17:30 jcamins              I wouldn't want to use offline circ as a stopgap for more than a few days, because you won't be able to handle renewals or holds, and if ByWater doesn't have a completely current dump of your Voyager database, it'll get very, very confused.
17:30 wizzyrea             a week would be a long time on offline circ
17:29 YoungPublicLibrarian Jcamins: Okay, thanks for all the information!
17:29 YoungPublicLibrarian Wizzyrea: We go live on the 23rd of April
17:28 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: well, you'll definitely need to talk to ByWater.
17:28 wizzyrea             and it won't process renewals or fill holds. How long are we talking about
17:28 YoungPublicLibrarian Hmm...from what the director said ByWater suggested using it. Our old system is Voyager...
17:26 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: you'd need to talk to ByWater about that... I don't it'd work unless you made your old system entirely read-only until go-live.
17:25 YoungPublicLibrarian Ah okay. Well we haven't actually went live yet. But our old system is crashing and the director wanted to use the offline tool until our Koha system went live...
17:22 wizzyrea             or of less use.
17:22 wizzyrea             otherwise it's no use to you
17:22 jcamins              Sometimes more than a skosh.
17:22 wizzyrea             ad you'll have to remember to download it *before* you go offline
17:22 wizzyrea             remember that it's always a skosh out of date
17:22 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: ByWater can generate the offline circulation database for you.
17:21 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: whoops... got you confused with a different library, I think. You're not located in Quebec, are you?
17:21 YoungPublicLibrarian Ah! Bywater Solutions is our vendor...
17:19 jcamins              I combined the two to conclude that you worked with a vendor called Libeo. ;)
17:19 jcamins              I also thought I remembered hearing that a support vendor called "Libeo" won an award.
17:19 jcamins              I thought I remembered hearing that they won an award for their work with you. :)
17:18 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: I meant your support vendor, whoever they are.
17:18 jcamins              YoungPublicLibrarian: who is your support vendor?
17:18 YoungPublicLibrarian lol, maybe I should stop asking. Considering I haven't the slightest clue what libeo is either...
17:17 jcamins              You'll probably need libeo to set it up for you.
17:17 jcamins              That's where the file is.
17:15 YoungPublicLibrarian misc/cronjobs? I don't know what that means...:(
17:14 wizzyrea             create_koc_db.pl
17:14 wizzyrea             it's in misc/cronjobs I think
17:14 cait                 I have never tried it out so far :(
17:14 cait                 YoungPublicLibrarian: I think you need to run a script on command line for that
17:13 YoungPublicLibrarian Quick (hopefully) Question: How do you create a borrowers.db file to use with the Koha Offline Circulation tool?
16:58 wizzyrea             hi cait :)
16:58 cait                 :)
16:58 cait                 hi all
16:58 wizzyrea             right
16:58 jcamins              wizzyrea: right, I meant, all check-ins done using the KOCT plugin.
16:57 wizzyrea             for koct checkins
16:57 jcamins              wizzyrea: you mean for all check-ins?
16:57 wizzyrea             at least you need to get a report out that says "hey you, double check this item"
16:56 wizzyrea             right. No hold found messages are processed anywhere. that's a bit of a bug I think.
16:55 * wizzyrea           double checks that
16:55 wizzyrea             if you check in one that's on hold for someone else
16:55 wizzyrea             of course, you miss the "hold found" messages
16:55 wizzyrea             check in seems to work ok
16:54 wizzyrea             it would not do a renewal
16:54 wizzyrea             commit to koha gives "success" and apply directly, if you haven't committed first, gives "added"
16:53 wizzyrea             but what's the difference between "apply directly" and "commit to koha"
16:53 wizzyrea             well I got it to work on ff on mac
16:51 * oleonard           gets nothing in the KOCT log when using it in Ubuntu
16:48 nengard_lunch        really going to lunch now :) hehe
16:48 nengard_lunch        i was gonna record it but then my computer crashed
16:48 nengard_lunch        that's more than i got
16:48 * wizzyrea           will try it
16:46 * oleonard           is now getting "authentication failed" from the KOCT
16:46 nengard              worst case i don't write a help file for it yet
16:46 nengard              i think it's time for lunch - then i'll try this ff plugin thing again
16:45 nengard              k - whole computer crashed
16:45 slef                 :) love ctcp
16:44 slef                 *** Time by oleonard is Friday, April 13, 2012 12:44:22 PM
16:44 wizzyrea             ah so
16:44 oleonard             1PM for me
16:44 wizzyrea             oleonard: I think it's past lunch time in your timezone
16:44 * oleonard           checks the clock for proximity to lunch time
16:44 jcamins              No one, that's who!
16:44 slef                 I think bad browsers like chrome is why we now have cookielaw.org
16:44 jcamins              wizzyrea: I thought so. Who can resist sweet potato fries?
16:43 oleonard             Mmmm... french fries...
16:43 wizzyrea             well ok, sometimes those.
16:43 jcamins              wizzyrea: not even sweet potato fries?
16:43 slef                 it's very hard to stop it leaking all your data to google and websites
16:42 wizzyrea             hmm
16:42 slef                 it's missing features and there are next to no add-ons
16:42 * wizzyrea           uses chromium on linux, chrome on mac
16:42 wizzyrea             that freedom.
16:42 slef                 its user interface makes me want to kill its makers
16:42 wizzyrea             oh oh
16:42 wizzyrea             admittedly, I don't eat fries, french or otherwise.
16:42 slef                 well I have chromium installed but I only use it for video
16:41 wizzyrea             do you?
16:41 slef                 wizzyrea: do you hate freedom? ;)
16:41 wizzyrea             :)
16:41 slef                 mmmm... apple retarts
16:39 wizzyrea             :P
16:39 wizzyrea             plus, I use chrome P
16:38 jcamins              I missed that.
16:38 * wizzyrea           made a funny that wasn't funny.
16:38 jcamins              lol
16:38 wizzyrea             re-tart not restart
16:38 oleonard             Session restore?
16:38 jcamins              wizzyrea: how do you end up with a gazillion tabs if you're always restarting the browser?
16:37 jcamins              (not for offline circ, just generally)
16:37 jcamins              I think I'll continue using Chrome.
16:36 oleonard             My problem is usually not getting it to restart but getting it to stop altogether when I want it to
16:36 nengard              grrrr lost everything i had open :(
16:36 * wizzyrea           retarts firefox all the time, the little web vixen.
16:36 nengard              it crashed
16:36 nengard              once i get FF to retart
16:35 nengard              i'll try that
16:35 nengard              k
16:35 oleonard             In mine it has it nengard
16:35 nengard              hmmm

14:50 jcamins              Good morning, #koha.
14:44 kf                   julian_m and asaurat did a bunch during hackfest
14:43 kf                   I think at the moment it's still a work in progress, some modules are covered, but not sure all
14:43 kf                   only in templates where it's used
14:43 kyleh                kf: thanks, I thought the KohaDates plugin was included in all templates already.
14:41 nengard              still working

14:35 wahanui              hmmm... apache is the ram hog
14:35 slef                 wahanui: apache?
14:35 wahanui              the issue is, like, that his barcodes don't match what he entered into the system
14:35 slef                 wahanui: the issue?
14:34 wahanui              well, paul_p is the 3.8 release manager, and is very tall, and does not like coffee.

13:54 benjix               how to get it installed back is the major problem

13:34 jenkins_koha         Starting build #712 for job Koha_master (previous build: SUCCESS)
13:34 kyleh                the issue is the ratings table in kohastructure.pl, but I'm not sure what the problem is.

13:22 slef                 samuel: you probably wantto install packages not use cpan

13:09 kyleh                nope, changed to datetime to date, no difference.
13:06 kyleh                can the $KohaDates filter handle datetimes? Could that be the problem with the suspend reserves error?
13:02 samuel               slef: i make  on cpan "look Log::LogLite", it 's ok but the problem begin when i do "make test"

12:41 * oleonard           passes the conversation to paul_p
12:40 samuel               this is the link of the tool which would be useful for us http://git.biblibre.com/?p=sudoc.git;a=summary
12:38 oleonard             I don't find any reference to "LogLite" in Koha code
12:35 samuel               make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-Iblib/lib" "-Iblib/arch" test.pl 1..6 Can't locate IO/LockedFile.pm in @INC (@INC contains: blib/lib blib/arch /usr/share/perl/5.10 /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at blib/lib/Log/Log
12:35 samuel               yes and i've now another problem with the module "Log:: LogLite" when i want to make the install
12:31 oleonard             samuel: That's an error you're getting from Koha?
12:30 kf                   I think i have an idea what it does :)
12:30 kf                   it's ok, I work for bsz - we also have pica as software for our union catalog
12:29 samuel               a bit long to explain.
12:28 kf                   not sure then
12:28 kf                   ah, right
12:27 samuel               it is for french universities
12:26 magnuse              samuel: my guess: Log::LogLite
12:26 kf                   samuel: not sure what the sudoc loader is?
12:26 kf                   hi oleonard
12:25 samuel               i've the following error "Can't locate Log/Log Lite.pm in @INC" with sudoc loader: i think it's a problem with a missing perl module but which?
12:24 paul_p               good morning oleonard
12:24 wahanui              yeah, yeah, hello, hello. Now fix some bugs for me, please.
12:24 slef                 hi all?
12:23 oleonard             Hi all
12:21 slef                 it accepted PNG
12:21 slef                 no matter - converted
12:12 magnuse              that would do it
12:12 kf                   probably only missing in a list of allowed formats?
12:12 magnuse              no idea!
12:12 slef                 magnuse: it was svg. Can that even contain executable code?
12:07 magnuse              slef: exe ftw!
11:58 * slef               converts it
11:58 slef                 :-/
11:58 slef                 "Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons"
11:34 magnuse              fredericd++
11:33 slef                 if anyone has time to turn that email into a post on koha-community.org before I do, that would be great
11:33 magnuse              huh? yay!
11:32 kf                   fredericd++ magnuse++
11:32 slef                 thanks fredericd and magnuse !
11:31 slef                 announcement emailed
11:14 * slef               drafts an announcement about sponsorship
11:00 drojf                no idea if i will be allowed to come to kohacon, the person in charge is gone until next week. but i still have some hope
11:00 kf                   ;)
10:59 drojf                heh
10:59 slef                 we have had one abstract that looked like it could be the entire talk so far!
10:59 slef                 drojf: kf, Brooke or rangi might have tips.
10:59 drojf                :)
10:59 slef                 drojf: as long as it needs to be to get passed by a reviewer
10:59 drojf                ok thanks
10:59 slef                 drojf: a reasonable paragraph, probably 100 words or less I think.
10:57 drojf                slef: how long is the abstract for a kohacon paper supposed to be?
10:54 drojf                good day #koha
09:51 slef                 hi all
09:51 kf                   hi slef :)
09:46 wahanui              i think faq is found at http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/
09:46 slef                 wahanui: faq?
08:23 kf                   :)
08:20 magnuse              i don't know nynorsk wel enough to do anything about it anyway...
08:19 magnuse              yeah, that works really well
08:19 kf                   not thinking about it :)
08:09 magnuse              or ok'ing?
08:06 magnuse              not thinking about it?
08:06 kf                   does it work?
08:06 magnuse              i try not to think about nynorsk at all
08:06 kf                   ouch
08:06 magnuse              kf: yup
08:06 kf                   ?
08:06 magnuse              but *a lot* of it is fuzzy strings that can just be ok'd :-)
08:06 kf                   is that bokmal only=
08:05 magnuse              or loose...
08:04 kf                   magnuse: ok, you win :)
08:04 rangi                heh
08:04 magnuse              34383 words need attention *2x sigh*
08:03 kf                   12933 words need attention *sigh*
08:00 rangi                to make sure it worked, before i brnached, tagged, and signed it etc
07:59 rangi                then install it in a vm
07:59 rangi                what i did was make the tarball
07:58 paul_p               tagging & branching, I was aware. I discover (and carefully write) the make manifest tardist & git archive !
07:58 rangi                and branch too
07:57 rangi                with git tag annotate
07:57 rangi                you also want to tag it in git
07:56 rangi                gpg --clearsign  koha-3.8.0.tar.gz.MD5
07:55 rangi                md5sum koha-3.8.0.tar.gz > koha-3.8.0.tar.gz.MD5
07:53 rangi                gpg -sb koha-3.8.0.tar.gz
07:53 rangi                git archive --format=tar --prefix=koha-3.8.0/ master | gzip > koha-3.8.0.tar.gz
07:51 rangi                but with git you can do
07:51 paul_p               rangi about the release notes, I agree it's a big deal. I've started already, and will submit something before the release, for proof reading and/or comments
07:50 rangi                then you end up with a tar.gz
07:50 rangi                make manifest tardist
07:49 rangi                make
07:49 rangi                perl Makefile.PL
07:46 rangi                to roll the release i did
07:45 rangi                the hard bit is writing the release notes
07:43 paul_p               (+ you wanted to speak of something yesterday)
07:43 paul_p               so, my question was to know how you did the releases
07:42 paul_p               rangi wonderful !
07:42 rangi                paul_p: i am now
07:41 kf                   hi esofiane

07:37 samuel               yeah, sounds good
07:37 kf                   "item stays where it was returned"
07:37 kf                   I opted for describing it

06:31 vinod1               is there any way so that 952$o field should automatically pick data from 082 at the time of importing?

06:07 francharb            good morning
06:05 vinod1               please let me know how to add full call number in 952 $o field at the tie of bulk importing\
06:02 cait                 or if you are good with sql you can also populate items.itemcallnumber and run a full reindex
06:02 cait                 and then import them again
06:02 cait                 vinod: put the callnumber in 952$o as rangi suggested
05:59 mtj                  cait++ too
05:59 vinod                ok than what to do so that imported items can be viewed directly
05:58 cait                 mtj++
05:58 cait                 thx mtj :)
05:58 cait                 vinod: when you edit an item, koha will check for 082 to present you with a suggestion for your callnumber, this is controlled by the itemcallnumber system preference - but it's only because you opened the item for editing.
05:57 cait                 you have to have the infrmation in the right fields already
05:57 cait                 when you import data
05:57 cait                 and add new items
05:57 cait                 vinod: it only does that automatically when you use the cataloguing module
05:56 vinod                please tell me what to do
05:55 rangi                Ok my bus stop bbl
05:55 vinod                when i tried to manually edit the item record, it was already call number was already there and after saving that shows the call number in opac also
05:55 mtj                  cait:  done :)

05:54 wahanui              i guess does is calculate the discount on this price or the tax is removed before to calculte the discount on the price before taxes?
05:54 rangi                What does?
05:54 vinod                during import i had given 082 field but it automatically takes in 952 $o also
05:54 rangi                It won't automatically add it
05:53 wahanui              cait: I forgot yes it
05:53 cait                 wahanui forget yes it
05:53 rangi                You added it to 952?
05:52 cait                 vinod: Koha does not show call numbers in the record, only in the items
05:52 wahanui              okay, vinod.
05:52 vinod                yes it is also automatically added
