23:59 bag            oh that world cup final shot is awesome
23:59 bag            we all had a lot of fun in NOLA - asking rangi what he cooks on his deck (you know the back porch patio kind of thing)
23:59 rangi          http://stats.workbuffer.org/chrisc_presentations/access_2011/html/slide017.html
23:59 rangi          and my favourite slide, from 2 days before the world cup final
23:58 rangi          hehe
23:58 rangi          http://stats.workbuffer.org/chrisc_presentations/access_2011/html/slide015.html
23:58 bag            rangi they've upgraded now - so they make more than just the almonds - like they make chocolate covered almonds  etc.
23:58 dcook          I wish that I hadn't been so slammed at the time
23:57 dcook          It was great!
23:57 rangi          heh, gets them everytime
23:57 * dcook        can't remember rangi's accent, but really wondered how long he was going to speak Maori for at his Access presentation
23:57 rangi          they were good!
23:57 bag            yeah rangi bought those almonds at the farmers market here in Santa Barbara
23:56 bag            October will be hard for baseball - since it will be world series time and most minor leagues are done at that time
23:56 dcook          lol
23:56 drojf          heh. love that one
23:56 wahanui        I LIKE ALMONDS! HAVE SOME NUTS!
23:56 drojf          rangi?
23:56 wahanui        gmcharlt: excuse me?
23:56 gmcharlt       wahanui: speak up, we can't quite make that out
23:56 wahanui        I LIKE BASEBALL
23:56 bag            bag?
23:54 rangi          or go to baseball games
23:54 rangi          heh
23:53 gmcharlt       or imagining combining mine, rangi's, and paul_p's
23:53 bag            or have fun with rangi's accent
23:52 bag            when you really get to understand paul_p etc...
23:52 bag            yeah that's the times that are fun
23:51 rangi          usually between beers
23:51 drojf          it was still fun :)
23:51 rangi          we did a lot of that
23:51 rangi          hehe yes
23:51 drojf          and standing in the rain in scotland
23:51 jcamins_away   ^^ that's the part I'm interested in.
23:51 rangi          that is the bit that reinforces community
23:51 rangi          but its the talking over beers or coffees
23:51 rangi          the presentations and stuff are cool
23:50 rangi          imho
23:50 rangi          its the most important part of the conf
23:50 dcook          Ahh, group bonding time? :p
23:50 rangi          we try to do something cultural/unique to the area
23:50 dcook          Mind you, I'm probably going to take a week or two off afterwards and try to see family and friends while I'm in NA
23:50 dcook          I like the day off idea, rangi
23:50 drojf          unfortunately i don't see that happening for me
23:50 drojf          i would
23:49 jcamins_away   Go to, rather.
23:48 jcamins_away   I'm not sure yet if I'll come to the entire thing.
23:46 rangi          2006 had 2 days conf, 5 days hackfest
23:46 rangi          at least since 2010 anyway, 2009 didnt have the day off bit
23:45 rangi          1 day off, 3 days hackfest
23:45 rangi          3 days conf
23:45 rangi          thats how long they always are :)
23:45 * dcook        is not opposed to this idea
23:45 dcook          Wow...the plan is for a rather long conference
23:44 rangi          that gossip session could be fun
23:44 dcook          Well, at least I'm in the door...:p
23:42 bag            the knock is submit patches :P
23:42 * dcook        wonders if there is a secret handshake and knock as well
23:42 dcook          :o
23:42 bag            I'd like to do gossip hour - tell the real story of koha from 4 years ago
23:41 bag            maybe it was the secret way to get listed as a koha support company…
23:41 jcamins_away   rangi: excellent, that means I don't have to do that one.
23:41 rangi          for the hackfest
23:41 rangi          im gonna do "from librarian to coder, in 1 hour"
23:40 rangi          heh
23:40 bag            good thing I wrote that down somewhere
23:40 bag            I had an idea awhile ago that I talked about doing with rangi - but I can't remember that at all right now
23:39 bag            but at least you thought about it
23:39 jcamins_away   Probably.
23:39 jcamins_away   I haven't decided.
23:39 bag            presenting?
23:39 jcamins_away   At present, yes.
23:39 bag            jcamins_away you planning on going to reno?
23:38 bag            yeah timing is weird sometimes
23:37 jcamins_away   Exactly.
23:37 bag            actually should help focus
23:37 jcamins_away   bag: that was the point.
23:36 dcook          :D
23:36 bag            bummer that is right after the freeze - but really good that it is right after the freeze so we can concentrate on bugs :)
23:36 * dcook        wishes
23:36 bag            hey any of you going to the french hackfest?
23:35 bag            [off]  oh now I get it - sorry dense - I was like no fucking way!!!  that's cool
23:34 jcamins_away   [off] I do not work for him. But he does lots of endorsements.
23:34 drojf          ha that goes right into the newsletter
23:34 bag            or is that just kidding
23:34 bag            [off] jcamins_away MJ?
23:33 rangi          heh
23:33 * dcook        apparently likes to repeat the word important a lot
23:33 dcook          drojf: I know, right?
23:33 drojf          i did not know we had so many spanish support companies
23:33 dcook          I think this community and the name of Koha are both really important, and I think whatever can help keep them both in good standing in the larger world is important
23:33 rangi          so everyone has to play by the same rules even tho we know some companies are much more involved than others
23:32 dcook          For sure. I'm all in favour of rules :D
23:32 rangi          "look im an official company"
23:32 rangi          but want a listing so they can go
23:32 rangi          the rules are to stop the things that don't want to build up that word of mouth or get involved in the community
23:31 dcook          [off] I do wonder about your clientele sometimes :p
23:31 jcamins_away   [off] I should get an endorsement... "C & P, Michael Jordan's favorite bibliographic services company!"
23:28 dcook          Exactly
23:28 bag            yeah we love the word of mouth :)  better than any endorsement
23:27 dcook          We've never really had to worry much about advertising. I'd just like it to be mentioned that we're part of the community
23:27 rangi          heh
23:26 drojf          that is why i would give you the direct country link that shows my company. you don't have to read about the "no endorsement" thing then
23:26 bag            well besides saying you're awesome!  but yeah no endorsement we can subtract that utterly - it means no endorsement
23:25 rangi          being listed implies utterly no endorsement
23:25 rangi          the other major thing to remember
23:24 dcook          I always figured library tech people to be akin to ninjas (especially as opposed to pirates)
23:23 bag            damn typos
23:22 * bag          feels like a ninja behing the keyboard today - good thing this isn't a talking channel
23:22 bag            I'm a bit sarcastic today - sorry it will pass
23:21 drojf          lol
23:21 bag            [off] don't be a dick - works really well too :)
23:20 drojf          [off] what has also worked: hastily put a koha logo in an arbitrary place on your not-library-related website :P
23:20 dcook          Thanks, bag :)
23:19 bag            you're more than golden IMO
23:19 dcook          The site is actually pretty good about that, it seems. Several links back to the community and explicit mention that it's open source and belongs to the community ;)
23:18 dcook          Haha, bag
23:18 bag            geeze :P
23:18 bag            and stand on one foot and chew gum at the same time
23:16 cait_afk       and link back to the community
23:16 jcamins_away   dcook: and your site should make it clear that you support the open source Koha software and not something else, ideally.
23:13 dcook          Sounds good. Thanks, rangi
23:12 drojf          heh
23:11 rangi          include as much info as you can, best if you can send a couple of urls to show you have actually done a koha install :)
23:11 rangi          thats right
23:10 dcook          To get listed as a support company, you need to send an email of introduction to the General Koha mailing list?
22:59 bag            ha
22:54 dcook          Whoa...there is a Koha list & site for francophones? Sweeet

22:09 rambutan       OK, well rangi++
22:09 rangi          you can see the code there
22:09 rambutan       OH
22:09 rambutan       oh
22:08 huginn         04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9587 new feature, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, Signed Off , Allow login via mozilla persona - https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/persona/
22:08 rangi          bug 9587
22:08 rangi          you have to cehck the assertion handed back, and if it is valid create a session for them in koha
22:08 wahanui        what's up, bgkriegel
22:08 bgkriegel      Hello
22:08 rambutan       that's like, "N" "O" no?
22:08 rangi          no
22:07 rambutan       OK, but independent of the patch, it seems like just putting the code on the base page of the OPAC should work, right?
22:06 cait_afk       rambutan: rangi did it already - there is a patch waiting for qa I think
22:05 rambutan       so it looks like to implement Mozilla persona on a koha web site (OPAC) it's simply a matter of putting the js code on the base page? https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Persona/Quick_Setup
22:00 rangi          koya uni should document what they do and/or hire someone to support for them
21:51 wizzyrea       when did we turn into apple?
21:49 cjh            heh
21:37 cait_afk       lol
21:37 drojf          maybe we can convince people that places are limited. and they have to sleep in a tent for three days waiting at the entrance to get a mentor job
21:36 drojf          and suddenly everybody wants to be a mentor
21:36 drojf          no, you are one of the enthusiastic flagships of volunteering that will attract others
21:35 jcamins_away   So I'm almost like a negative volunteer, since my participation requires an additional person be involved.
21:35 drojf          what body part mentor does that make you? :D
21:35 jcamins_away   drojf: but if you're counting me as a mentor, you have to find someone else to be the head mentor.
21:34 drojf          cool
21:34 drojf          ok so that is rangi, gmcharlt and jcamins_away volunteering.
21:34 jcamins_away   Good night, #koha.
21:34 * jcamins_away leaves as well.
21:33 oleonard       See you later #koha
21:33 jcamins_away   But I'd help out with the "getting started with developing Koha," since I do that a lot.
21:32 * jcamins_away would probaby not be a good "official" mentor.
21:32 jcamins_away   Heh.
21:32 rangi          hehe
21:32 rangi          sounds like volunteering to me
21:32 jcamins_away   Oh, I thought he said he _had_ coordinated.
21:32 drojf          lol
21:31 rangi          i think gmcharlt volunteered to coordinate
21:31 * jcamins_away doesn't particularly agree with slef's position, but is not volunteering to coordinate.
21:30 rangi          ive done gsoc mentoring before, it does take a lot of time but if there was more than me id try again
21:29 rangi          hmm 1 no, and a lot of silence
21:28 drojf          i think the vote for GSoC is "no"
21:26 rangi          :)
21:25 Dyrcona        oleonard++ # if a bit late. :p
21:24 rangi          hehe
21:23 jcamins_away   :)
21:23 jcamins_away   rangi: so I guess what you're saying is that my hinting was not too subtle to be understood as "not me"?
21:23 * rangi        was hinting he wanted someone else to sign koha up so he didnt have to :)
21:22 Dyrcona        rangi: I saw it in there, too, but after you mentioned it in channel
21:22 * jcamins_away thinks that signing Koha up to openhatch is a great idea, and looks forward to the appearance of new developers.
21:22 rangi          ahh well i only spotted that from oleonards link :)
21:21 Dyrcona        I'm asking the Evergreen community on g+ what they think of signing up to openhatch.
21:21 rangi          huh?
21:21 Dyrcona        rangi++
21:21 jenkins_koha   Starting build #64 for job Koha_3.10.x (previous build: SUCCESS)
21:19 * wizzyrea     sees openhatch and is reminded of feeding babies
21:19 rangi          who wants to sign koha up to that?

21:09 kathryn        you're a kohaface
21:09 cjh            hahaha koha facebook login
21:00 bag            hi
21:00 bag            I'm around
21:00 huginn         rambutan: bag was last seen in #koha 22 hours, 48 minutes, and 6 seconds ago: <bag> that doesn't change the mapping - but you are correct - you should not change the mapping (it's still hardcoded in some places - like the indexing files)
21:00 rambutan       @seen bag
20:48 wizzyrea       oh god not a facebook login.
20:48 jcamins_away   lol
20:48 rangi          for now i just hope persona has staved off any idea to do a login with facebook or something mad :-)
20:48 rangi          but yep i hope that eventually persona is the default (or somethign like it) and local passwords the exception
20:46 rangi          hence the shift to bcrypt :)
20:45 jcamins_away   What I'm saying is if you want to be serious about security, use something designed by security experts.
20:45 wizzyrea       :)
20:45 wizzyrea       i'm just reiterating.
20:45 jcamins_away   I was not suggesting that we eliminate passwords.
20:45 wizzyrea       you really can't assume ane mail address.
20:45 wizzyrea       right, not everyone has an email, especially in public libraries
20:44 rangi          oh i didnt think you had
20:43 cait_afk       I didn't intend to say it wasn't - it's a really good thing
20:43 rangi          but there's no reason we can't make it tidy up old ones when it sees them
20:43 cait_afk       it's agood start :)
20:43 rangi          which is a good start
20:43 rangi          for now, it is only new passwords, and ones that people change
20:43 jcamins_away   Nice!
20:42 rangi          so at least people using them, will get their passwords tidied up
20:42 rangi          so the followup ill do is whenever someone logs in, it reencodes their password into bcrypt
20:42 jcamins_away   Ah.
20:41 rangi          yes but the time taken is feasible enough to make it worth while now
20:41 jcamins_away   rangi: hasn't that been possible for a long time?
20:41 rangi          so on login
20:41 rangi          ill do a followup
20:41 rangi          no but when its accepted
20:41 cait_afk       reset
20:41 cait_afk       sadly we still cant force them to rset
20:41 cait_afk       ew
20:41 rangi          and i bet 90% of ppl have short passwords :)
20:40 rangi          (its totally feasible to brute force md5 for 8 or less chars now)
20:40 rangi          the patch from srikanth will make them a lot more secure
20:40 rangi          speaking of passwords
20:40 cait_afk       and not everyone can run their own persona server
20:39 jcamins_away   I'm not suggesting we eliminate the passwords.
20:39 jcamins_away   True.
20:39 rangi          not everyone has an email
20:39 rangi          but that is at least necessary for the time being
20:39 jcamins_away   With the existence of Mozilla Persona, I would argue that having Koha manage logins is a bad idea.
20:38 rangi          sending passwords in the clear is always always always a bad idea
20:38 cait_afk       yep
20:38 gaetan_B       it seems it is :)
20:38 gaetan_B       anyway, i was just wondering if it was normal that Koha doesn't send the email if you let it autofill the userid and password
20:37 gaetan_B       the library can always modify the message to say patrons should log-on and modify their password now they have an account
20:37 jcamins_away   cait_afk: I see no use for the e-mail at all, so I don't care either way.
20:37 cait_afk       yeah, I can understand why people want it - but I would like it better as a one time password they have to change maybe :) but that's just me apparently :)
20:37 gaetan_B       i thought of it as a way of initializing the account
20:36 cait_afk       and we don't force people to change their passwords
20:36 gaetan_B       i thought it was a neat way to inform the patron of is userid and password without having the librarian typing them in the system
20:36 cait_afk       gaetan_B: yeah, I don't like it because I think sending paswords plain text is not nice
20:36 gaetan_B       actuallly cait_afk i'm ok with how it works now, except for the fact it doesn't seem to send emails if you haven't filled the userid and password fields, which Koha then fill up automatically
20:36 cait_afk       jcamins_away: yep, that's the functionality part, but there is always a different story to things beside the technical details :)
20:35 jcamins_away   I don't have it on, and it doesn't do anything, just the way I want it.
20:35 cait_afk       not in a bug kind of way :)
20:35 * jcamins_away does not see any problem with it.
20:35 cait_afk       I do :) just telling gaetan_B that this feature is not ideal
20:34 jcamins_away   So, leave it disabled.
20:34 cait_afk       morning rangi
20:34 rangi          excellent, that is how it should be
20:34 cait_afk       but when you do goes out to all new patrons, regardless of category
20:34 cait_afk       you have to activate it - it's off by default
20:34 cait_afk       yep
20:34 rangi          morning
20:32 jcamins_away   I think you can disable it.
20:32 jcamins_away   Borrower details e-mail?
20:32 cait_afk       it's a dangerous feature anyway :(
20:32 cait_afk       you can't resend it later with the password change functionality or something like that
20:31 cait_afk       in my tests it only worked for new borrowers - filling in all data in the big formI think
20:29 gaetan_B       it seems koha only sends the account details email when you have manually filled the userid and password for a new borrower, am i wrong ?
20:04 jcamins_away   wizzyrea++
20:03 drojf          no, you can't
20:03 cait_afk       can't give up now, can I?
20:03 cait_afk       send in 5 out of 6 I had to send in :)
20:03 cait_afk       no, that's waht I know, - so close now!
20:03 drojf          i had dinner and now i am tired and lazy and hang around here
20:02 drojf          ha. that's what you think
20:02 cait_afk       i am having dinner... back to study? after that
20:02 * cait_afk     waves
20:02 cait_afk       heh
19:57 oleonard       I'll bet wizzyrea knows all about configuring servers for smart caching of static resources
19:57 drojf          it was meant for me actually
19:57 drojf          sorry :)
19:56 oleonard       drojf: Don't interrupt cait_afk when she's telling me how smart I am! :P
19:56 drojf          why am i always to weak to hit shift for the '?'?
19:56 * wizzyrea     waves
19:55 wahanui        Go back to your books!
19:55 drojf          study?
19:55 drojf          studyß
19:54 cait_afk       or something like that :)
19:54 cait_afk       you are pretty smart - but maybe someone with a different area of expertise
19:54 cait_afk       :)
19:50 oleonard       I ask politely that someone smarter than me do so :)
19:50 oleonard       except I'm not, because I stopped
19:49 oleonard       server configuration options to improve caching of static resources
19:49 cait_afk       oleonard: which things are you looking at?
19:49 * jcamins_away hasn't used data from ezcat or atriuum, but I've seen it.
19:48 Dyrcona        jcamins_away: So you've that kind of damage before, then?
19:47 jcamins_away   Dyrcona: ezcat or atriuum, I think.
19:45 Dyrcona        I don't know what ILS they come from originally, but I know it was proprietary.
19:45 * oleonard     should stop poking his nose into things he doesn't understand...
19:45 Dyrcona        :)
19:45 jcamins_away   True.
19:45 cait_afk       Dyrcona: at least you got indicators :P
19:44 oleonard       I see we do have 'ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 year"' for the koha-tmpl directory
19:37 Dyrcona        jcamins_away: Fortunately, I'm not the one dealing with it directly but offering advice to the sucker^Wadministrator over IRC.
19:36 jcamins_away   Dyrcona: fun indeed.
19:36 jcamins_away   oleonard: we could probably improve our Apache/nginx configuration.
19:35 oleonard       Is there more we could do to optimize caching of Koha resources which don't change, like images, css, js?
19:24 huginn         Dyrcona: The operation succeeded.
19:24 Dyrcona        @later tell jcamins_away Fun with legacy data: http://pastebin.com/2LWwCjLS
18:51 cait_afk       nice have fun :)
18:51 tcohen         cait_afk: i'll fill a bug on this as soon as i get home, i promise patch for tomorrow, tennis session ahead
18:51 tcohen         bye #koha
18:48 tcohen         exactly
18:47 cait_afk       and not very friendly about translations on top of everything.
18:47 cait_afk       soem of the guided reports code is ....
18:47 cait_afk       yeah, probably older code
18:47 cait_afk       ah
18:42 tcohen         that's all
18:42 tcohen         too much code on the .pl and no .pm for this specific functionality
18:39 cait_afk       scare the qam and then nevermind :P
18:36 tcohen         nevermind
18:35 cait_afk       hm?
18:35 tcohen         cait_afk: i hate it when I find this kind of code inside Koha's source...
18:32 tcohen         lol
18:31 * cait_afk     goes back to her books with a loud sigh
18:31 cait_afk       ah not only you
18:31 tcohen         I have focus problems
18:31 cait_afk       huh? :)
18:31 tcohen         bien chbien hce
18:30 * jcamins_away leaves.
18:30 jcamins_away   Exactly.
18:30 cait_afk       i was thinking it miht be easier to understand for people who are not so technical
18:28 tcohen         yeah, me tooo, its cleaner, right?
18:28 jcamins_away   I like cait_afk's suggestion.
18:27 tcohen         second, provide a way to make it harder to misspell them
18:27 tcohen         first, replace every occurence of a variable for the same value (as you suggest)
18:27 cait_afk       so this is different to our current runtime parameters?
18:27 cait_afk       not sure I understand how that would work. hm.
18:26 tcohen         (in the code)
18:26 tcohen         cait_afk: i was thinking of a small form for creating variables for SQL and a + button to insert them
18:26 cait_afk       so if you have <<Library|branches>> and a bit further down the same again, show only one field in Koha and replace twice
18:25 cait_afk       for placeholders with the same name, replace them not only once, but every time they occur in the sql
18:25 cait_afk       or maybe even easier
18:24 cait_afk       tcohen: if we worry about that... maybe it could be a 'koha syntax' that just adds the variable at the right places in the sql?
18:22 tcohen         #koha?
18:18 tcohen         jcamins_away: is SET @val = XX ; "too mysqlish"?
17:36 cait_afk       :)
17:08 huginn         gmcharlt: The operation succeeded.  Quote #233 added.
17:08 gmcharlt       @quote add <oleonard> How about "Now that she's three my daughter has terrible authority control"
17:08 jcamins        Hehe.
17:08 oleonard       How about "Now that she's three my daughter has terrible authority control"
17:07 gmcharlt       but it clearly needs to stick around so that she can be properly embarassed the first time she joins #koha ;)
17:06 oleonard       Well that's out of date now
17:06 huginn         gmcharlt: Quote #60: "<owen> My 9-month-old may not be walking yet, but she's got great bib control." (added by gmcharlt at 05:31 PM, February 19, 2010)
17:06 gmcharlt       @quote random
16:58 cait_afk       *grump*
16:54 wahanui        Go back to your books!
16:54 cait_afk       study?
16:54 cait_afk       well... 4 of my 6 assignments are done...
16:53 cait_afk       heh as long as it works :)
16:53 oleonard       By neglecting everything around me usually ;)
16:53 cait_afk       I don't know how you do it - getting so much done, but very glad you can :)
16:52 cait_afk       oleonard++
16:46 oleonard       rambutan: So I shouldn't use WebKit as the rendering engine for the standalone Windows Koha client I've been developing in secret?

16:21 jcamins        Makes sense to me.
16:21 tcohen         we could have a small form for adding variables, right?
16:20 tcohen         for SQL reports it doesnt sound difficult
16:18 jcamins        I was going to be very impressed that our reports interface was sufficiently intelligent to allow for variables.
16:18 jcamins        Oh.
16:18 tcohen         (sorry)
16:17 tcohen         (in mysql, didn't check on the reports)
16:17 jcamins        Really? Cool!
16:17 tcohen         it does :-D
16:16 jcamins        I don't think that works.
16:16 tcohen         are we allowed to do things like SET @var = 2012; within reports?
16:13 jcamins        Yeah, that would definitely make sense.
16:12 tcohen         i think there should :-P
16:11 jcamins        I don't think there is.
16:11 tcohen         hi, is there a way to create an SQL report with a user provided value that is used several times?
16:03 reiveune       bye

15:46 oleonard       Bug 9420
15:46 * oleonard     cheers!
15:31 oleonard       :)
15:31 drojf          yeah. right :P
15:29 * oleonard     hopes the tscpl.org folks at least see our no-cookie visits in their logs to make them think
15:26 drojf          oleonard: i assume it is because google analytics needs js. why would you offer free content to people you cannot track?
15:25 drojf          lol
15:24 oleonard       Why would you create a whole new version of delicious.com which shows a blank page if you have JS disabled?
15:24 drojf          true
15:24 magnuse        saves you from reading more long books, in fact
15:24 drojf          geniuses
15:24 magnuse        yup
15:24 drojf          too
15:24 drojf          aaaah. right! that explains it, magnuse. and not seeing the opac saves me time to
15:23 drojf          i get to see the opac for a second and then i get an error
15:23 magnuse        hey, they published a short book, so you don't have to read a long one, which will save you time and time is, as we all know, money. makes perfect sense!
15:23 drojf          i have no idea. inferior library system? http://catalog.tscpl.org
15:22 jcamins        I can see not allowing logins, but not displaying?
15:22 jcamins        Why wouldn't you display an OPAC to people with cookies disabled?
15:20 jcamins        Huh?
15:18 drojf          because that is what they do
15:18 drojf          i hope they have a page or two about "how to make friends by not displaying your opac to people that have cookies disabled"
15:15 drojf          i nominate this the most useless book of the day
15:14 drojf          yes, we need a lot of that
15:14 drojf          Tips for using rotating banner ads to draw attention to website content,  a technique which brought in 3,000+ page views for a post about the new  library catalog
15:12 Dyrcona        oleonard: Only $34 for the ebook! What a bargain! :p

15:07 mtj            i'll see if i can add some extra ids to existing elements
15:04 mtj            well, thats a good alternative idea, thanks
15:03 oleonard       mtj: If the addition of a couple of small comments to your system prefs is too onerous, perhaps you could look at different ways of enhancing the existing markup to provide the hooks you need
15:01 cait           :)
15:01 mtj            and, its not weird - its *useful*
15:00 mtj            if its a useful patch, the increase in size is worth it
14:59 cait           even yes, tiny little bit
14:59 cait           only blowing up the html
14:59 cait           having something around without content seems weird tome :)
14:59 mtj            meh, its a pretty brittle/unsatisfing solultion to me
14:59 cait           I think I am with oleonard
14:57 oleonard       I liked cait's suggestion of a comment if you're unable to put meaningful content there for non-js users.
14:56 oleonard       Maybe I'm wrong, maybe it never happens. But it seems like there are better ways to solve your particular problem.
14:56 oleonard       Sometimes there is something in OpacMainUserBlock, sometimes there isn't.
14:56 oleonard       mtj: Consider an OPAC where the content changes, but the CSS is static.
14:55 mtj            A custom background or border for OpacMainUserBlock content… that doesnt exist?!
14:54 oleonard       It doesn't to me. A custom background or border for OpacMainUserBlock content?
14:53 mtj            hmm, that seems pretty unlikely?!
14:52 oleonard       The problem is that we don't know how others have customized those areas. It could be that folks have applied a style to those areas which would show even with no content (background color, border, etc)
14:50 mtj            so, with the exeption of OpacNav, *would* my patch be a problem?
14:49 magnuse        that will look cool for users without javascript enabled ;-)
14:49 cait           well with <!--
14:49 cait           mtj: what about <-- some other information goes here -->?
14:49 mtj            … not sure how 'meaningful' that is to the client
14:49 oleonard       By meaningful I mean, meaningful to someone who might visit the page with javascript disabled for instance
14:48 mtj            welll, ive currently got … div style="display: none;">DONT DELETE ME!!!!</div>
14:47 mtj            yeah, i've noticed that one is a uniq problem
14:47 oleonard       mtj, is there not some kind of meaningful placeholder text you can enter?
14:47 mtj            … to get it to 'appear' on the page,  so i can insert new content into it, etc
14:47 oleonard       In the case of OpacNav, the whole column isn't displayed if there is no content. Not sure how you'd accommodate those who really didn't want anything there
14:46 mtj            im doing some opac customising with jquery atm - and as a work-around, im having to paste <hidden> stuff, into each syspref
14:45 mtj            because people would find those divs/spans very useful for jquery manipulation… if they existed
14:43 mtj            like OpacMainUserBlock and OpacNav, etc...
14:43 oleonard       Why?
14:42 mtj            .. its basically a patch to force the creation of customised opac divs, *even* if the syspref contains no content
14:42 * oleonard     checks the clock, wonders if mtj needs a glass of warm milk or a bottle of Nyquil
14:41 mtj            hey, while you are about… i have another idea that have been meaning to ask you about…
14:40 mtj            aaah, too easy :)
14:40 oleonard       <img src="path/to/amazon/ ISBN from Koha">
14:40 oleonard       They're all HTTP
14:40 oleonard       Amazon cover images don't rely on the API
14:39 mtj            and… i cant see how amazon cover-images would still work after the patch?!

09:18 mtj            .. but is successfully being executed by my browser
09:18 mtj            i'm trying to add breakpoints, and step thru a .js file… that wont show in my debugger
09:17 drojf          mtj: you want them to show, but they don't, not the other way round?
09:16 cait           what are you trying to do?
09:16 cait           ?
09:15 mtj            ...surely some other poor soul has hit this problem?
09:14 mtj            on locally pathed files, to force them to be loaded as absolute urls - so they show in firebug/chrome's debugger
09:12 mtj            the solution seems to be… use a hacked version of jQuery.getScript()?
09:11 mtj            has anyone bumped into a problem/solution for loading js files… and not being able to see/debug them, in firebug?
09:10 mtj            ok, heres a random jscript/jquery Q….
09:04 cait           hm?

05:59 mtj            bbiab...
05:54 dcook          Stats! Stats!
05:53 mtj            oooh, thats a good idea
05:42 rangi          the packages are just served by a webserver, so we will have access logs for them
05:42 rangi          i have stats for the tarballs
05:42 rangi          we should run stats on teh package downloads
04:04 * jcamins_away is leaving as well, actually.
04:04 dcook          Alas, I'm not sure that I follow your XSLT, but...gotta go
04:04 dcook          Eeep, jcamins_away
04:04 dcook          later, wizzyrea
04:03 jcamins_away   Whoops.
04:03 * jcamins_away has successfully erased the record while trying to save it.
04:03 dcook          Glad to know I'm not the only North American down here :p
04:03 dcook          Ahh, I thought that you were in NZ
04:03 wizzyrea       later peeps :)
04:03 wizzyrea       ok I'm outtie
04:02 wizzyrea       well now it's proper :P
04:01 jcamins_away   And disregard the <textarea> tags, that just seemed like the simplest way to stick them inline.
04:00 jcamins_away   The weird PHP is just the xml declaration.
04:00 jcamins_away   ^^ the XSLT
04:00 jcamins_away   http://paste.koha-community.org/393
04:00 jcamins_away   dcook: so I don't have to use TinyMCE's sharply limited XML support.
04:00 * dcook        still has a few websites from the past to change/remove
03:59 dcook          Damned personal identity management, eh?
03:59 wizzyrea       oh, I should change linkedin
03:59 dcook          ...why?
03:59 dcook          Excellent, jcamins_away!
03:58 jcamins_away   Ha! I have stylesheets to HTMLize and deHTMLize my records!
03:58 wizzyrea       ohhh
03:57 dcook          Check your inbox :p
03:57 dcook          LinkedIn and then the comment above about Kansas
03:55 * wizzyrea     wonders where you got kansas from
03:55 wizzyrea       haha!
03:54 dcook          I still go by Canadian Librarian. I figure I can keep the adjective so long as I keep my accent :p
03:54 wizzyrea       anymore :)
03:54 dcook          Crafty
03:54 * wizzyrea     is actually not
03:54 dcook          I didn't realize that you were actually in Kansas
03:52 dcook          I'm going to go with the many other fine qualities, and firm yet supple tight embrace.
03:52 wizzyrea       or huge... tracts of land.
03:51 wizzyrea       i am sure that she has many fine qualities
03:51 * wizzyrea     resists the urge to suggest you dump her
03:51 dcook          O_o
03:50 wizzyrea       evar
03:50 dcook          She also wasn't a fan of the "Future koha developer" onesie. I don't know about her..
03:50 wizzyrea       also koha-mysql = best idea
03:50 dcook          Shot down both times
03:50 dcook          Mmm, that's another one I proposed
03:50 wizzyrea       follow different people is the solution I ahve
03:49 dcook          I just tell her to stop going on Instagram
03:49 dcook          My partner has a pet peeve about that, which I hear about every few weeks :p
03:49 dcook          Now it is funny that you mention that
03:49 wizzyrea       strange internet thing.
03:49 dcook          lol
03:49 wizzyrea       what is the deal with girls taking pictures of their fingernails.
03:48 dcook          Mmm, true enough
03:48 wizzyrea       http://img.ehowcdn.com/article-new/ehow/images/a06/ai/od/mix-colors-make-cornflower-blue-800x800.jpg that's closer
03:47 wizzyrea       that is not at all the color I would call "cornflower"
03:47 wizzyrea       http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/39/Bachelor%27s_button,_Basket_flower,_Boutonniere_flower,_Cornflower_-_3.jpg
03:46 wizzyrea       no not THAT shade of cornflower.
03:46 wizzyrea       it was the color I was trying to think of earlier
03:46 wizzyrea       funny you should say cornflower
03:46 dcook          Does the icon come in cornflower blue?
03:45 dcook          Pretty much, eh?
03:45 wizzyrea       just a laser focus on your micro problems, instead of the macro focus you get otherwise
03:45 dcook          I was just about to write that, haha
03:45 wizzyrea       it's not so much different, heh.
03:44 dcook          I sometimes wonder what it would be like to be a dedicated systems person in a single branch library or even for just one library system
03:44 dcook          [off] I have almost the exact same problem atm
03:43 dcook          Hehe
03:26 wizzyrea       what? why?!
03:26 wizzyrea       "III is broken. Can you make Koha do it like III did?"
03:25 wizzyrea       that is like, life as a koha developer.
03:25 * dcook        shudders at cartoon
03:24 dcook          Ohhh, I like that idea, mtj
03:22 wizzyrea       hehehehehe
03:21 mtj            … after my space-bar cools down
03:20 mtj            nice, i'll test it later tonite

03:12 mtj            one day…. !
03:12 mtj            lol
03:10 wizzyrea       yep, I know :)
03:10 mtj            liz, ive always dreamt of a 'submit info to kc.org' feature, for koha
03:10 wizzyrea       I just wanted to laugh at that cartoon again.
03:10 huginn         wizzyrea: Quote #123: "rangi: #thingsihavelearnt if there is a mad scheme a library somewhere will be doing it ... except madder" (added by wizzyrea at 09:20 PM, March 30, 2011)
03:10 wahanui        http://xkcd.com/1172/
03:09 wizzyrea       @quote get 123
03:08 wizzyrea       so it would probably be self reporting
03:08 wizzyrea       can we?
03:08 wizzyrea       installs*
03:08 wizzyrea       and we can't really track git clones or package installes
03:07 wizzyrea       when someone downloads koha it's probably once, maybe twice
03:07 mtj            i think the dot is sposed to be center of each country
03:07 wizzyrea       well because a person could download OO for multiple computers
03:07 cjh            we can scale a bit :P
03:07 wizzyrea       of course our downloads are nowhere near that
03:06 wizzyrea       the idea, i like
03:06 wizzyrea       but yes
03:06 wizzyrea       hm that is odd. strange.
03:06 wizzyrea       that must be what eythian is saying.
03:06 wizzyrea       and what's with the kansas-area huge US dot. or is that just "from the US"
03:06 mtj            wizzyrea++ awesome idea
03:05 eythian        I like how it considers Dunedin to be the centre of NZ
03:00 jcamins_away   I want to convert the first bit into the second bit: http://paste.koha-community.org/392
03:00 wizzyrea       ya think?
02:59 jcamins_away   Blurgh. Sometimes XSLT is a real nightmare.
02:57 wizzyrea       http://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/21_million_per_day we should do something like this koha vs sirsi
01:50 mtj            ^^ yeah, what she said… :p
