23:52 tcohen       yeah, i imagine, n orush!
23:52 eythian      I intend to, just super busy at the moment
23:51 tcohen       but i'll resume tomorrow
23:51 tcohen       i halted my work on those scripts until someone takes a look
23:51 eythian      ah yes, I need to have a look at those patches
23:50 tcohen       heh eythian
23:50 tcohen       eythian, I was thinking more on 3.12 packages, which probably won't benefit from the koha-lang packages
23:50 eythian      all of it, clearly
23:49 jcamins      Now... what proportion of alcohol is necessary...
23:49 jcamins      tcohen: perfect!
23:48 tcohen       ;)
23:48 tcohen       alcohol
23:47 eythian      a bit of antifreeze will help too
23:46 jcamins      If I can make a solution that is exactly saturated, it should remain mostly liquid in my freezer.
23:26 jcamins      Hm. If only wizzyrea were here to remind me how to figure out the freezing point of sugar solutions.

23:05 rangi        yeah, naw

23:03 grubbing     rangi or jcamins: why don't one of you write a koha chatterbot in your spare time?
22:58 huginn       eythian: The operation succeeded.
22:58 eythian      @later tell tcohen I also don't want to have all the languages in one package, I'd rather split them into their own.
22:57 huginn       eythian: The operation succeeded.
22:57 eythian      @later tell tcohen if you place a : after my name in @later tell, I'll never see your message :)
22:55 eythian      hi
22:39 mtompset     jcamins++ # reply is better than silence. :)
22:39 mtompset     ibeardslee++
22:39 mtompset     Thanks for the feedback. :)
22:34 ibeardslee   Also be aware of the mirror you are using some may still be a little bit behind and may not have the absolute 'final' release yet.
22:33 ibeardslee   I've been just running the "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to keep the updates happening.
22:32 jcamins      No idea, sorry.
22:32 ibeardslee   if you are already running the beta the do-release-upgrade isn't required
22:25 mtompset     If I installed a beta version of Ubuntu and the final release has been done, would a sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade; sudo do-release-upgrade be sufficient to make sure I'm using the non-beta version?
22:22 jcamins      And chances are I'll buy more tomorrow.
22:22 jcamins      So far I've bought 6lbs this week.
22:18 rangi        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT7W8xJFl_g
22:18 rangi        also
22:17 rangi        cya drojf
22:17 drojf        good night #koha
22:17 rangi        id buy 12 pound then
22:16 jcamins      BTW, strawberries were $0.79/pound!
22:12 rangi        ill give that a crack
22:12 rangi        right
22:12 jcamins      And reset the index.
22:12 rangi        removing all authorities, just delete in the db eh?
22:12 rangi        ah yep
22:11 jcamins      Either remove all authorities and run the linker with KeepStaleHeadings off and LinkerRelink on, or just delete all the $9s in 1xx, 6xx, and 7xx.
22:11 rangi        rip through and kill all the 9's ?
22:11 rangi        dangit
22:11 jcamins      Easy enough to script, though.
22:11 jcamins      rangi: not in Koha.
22:05 mtompset     Greetings, #koha.
22:05 rangi        is there a way to delete all links to authorities?
22:04 rangi        random question
21:52 drojf        yes!
21:52 rangi        id use that
21:52 rangi        and renew from jabber
21:51 rangi        yep
21:51 rangi        heh
21:44 drojf        rangi: searching from a jabber client would be nice. i'd definitely use that
21:43 drojf        "(10:15:00) Harry Potter: I am overdue! Return me immediately!"
21:42 jcamins      Heh.
21:41 drojf        on a second thought, have all your items have jabber accounts. they could start spamming the users ;)
21:41 jcamins      Hehe.
21:41 drojf        i was thinking about something like having your patrons get accounts automatically and be able to post stuff  and chat and it shows up somewhere in koha. i don't know if i would want to chat with the co-patrons at the libraries i use but it feels crazy enough that libraries might like it :D
21:40 drojf        true. i like it!
21:36 rangi        so it would be easier to do now
21:36 rangi        and pre svc/
21:36 rangi        it was pre ils-di
21:35 rangi        [off] i totally didnt do it on their dime, dunno why i put it on that blog, seemed like a good idea at the time i guess
21:35 rangi        [off] http://web.archive.org/web/20070901060311/http://blogs.liblime.com/developers/2007/06/22/instant-message-your-ils/
21:32 drojf        rangi: that's cool!
21:32 rangi        i think my screenshots were on a evil blog
21:29 rangi        https://github.com/ranginui/kohabot
21:29 rangi        then i started converting my bot to jabber
21:29 rangi        with AIM
21:29 rangi        but before xmpp
21:28 rangi        drojf: i did that once
21:18 wahanui      goodnight cait. You'll be back.
21:18 cait         night all
21:06 drojf        wouldn't it be fun to have koha create an XMPP account for each patron on a local server? we could use it in a social-networky way and have a local »librarybook« network.
20:54 gglitch      Thanks rangi!
20:53 rangi        bbiab
20:53 rangi        install koha via packages load the data in, and do a ton of testing
20:52 rangi        running a recent debian or ubuntu lts
20:52 rangi        gglitch: id start with a new server
20:50 gglitch      (pun acknowledged but not intended)
20:50 gglitch      K so but seriously. I have to make sense of this Koha business. I haven't found an easy way to migrate data from an outdated Koha installation to a new one. Any pointers, before I dive back into the nets?
20:48 gglitch      I'm just saying it's funny :)
20:46 tcohen       its a synonim for good or for bad?
20:45 gglitch      This is hysterical
20:43 tcohen       you have to see the speedmouse show then :-D
20:42 gglitch      tcohen - funny video. Never heard of the umbilical brothers :)
20:40 tcohen       sorry gglitch, it was just a bad joke
20:39 tcohen       http://www.metacafe.com/watch/978919/the_umbilical_brothers_gli_glitch/
20:39 gglitch      Thanks chris_n :)
20:39 rangi        gglitch: thats right
20:39 gglitch      Don't know that show, but from now on, Max Headroom is my primary inspiration as a librarian.
20:39 chris_n      gglitch: sorry I missed you, but I see you found your way over here anyway
20:38 tcohen       there was a joke on a show, "I think there was a g-glitch"
20:38 gglitch      The, ah, fetal state of my sysadmin skills.
20:38 gglitch      m interpreting that as a joke about the infantile state of my knowledge. I'm googling frantically.
20:37 gglitch      I
20:37 tcohen       gglitch: do u like the umbillical bros?
20:35 gglitch      Or translate that data store to the format/version required by the new Koha?
20:34 gglitch      Forgive my newbness, but you're referring to whatever process would hook a new installation of Koha up to the current installation's data store?
20:34 rangi        (couple of thousand is an exaggeration its probably a couple of hundred)
20:34 rangi        :)
20:34 rangi        i bet you will miss the 3 that failed
20:33 rangi        but if you do a couple of thousand db updates in one go
20:33 rangi        gglitch: not easier
20:31 gglitch      The Koha page seems pretty adamant that Koha should no longer be used on anything older than Ubuntu 12.04
20:31 gglitch      Thanks jcamins. Rangi, thank you too - but this is easier than migrating data to a fresh install?
20:30 jcamins      So long, #koha.
20:30 * jcamins    heads home.
20:29 rangi        not try and go all the way from 3.0.x to 3.10.x (or 3.12.x depending on when you start)
20:29 rangi        so i would do a couple of upgrades
20:29 rangi        gglitch: 3.0.4 is really really old
20:29 jcamins      Jeez, lag!
20:26 huginn       gglitch: downloading the Perl source
20:26 gglitch      @jcamins Thanks very much. Does copying my data just mean moving the database over?
20:24 jcamins      jeff: lol
20:24 jcamins      I tend not to upgrade my servers' OSes.
20:24 jcamins      You can just copy your data from the old server to the new server, run the upgrade script, and after a few... minutes/hours/days... it'll be upgraded.
20:24 jeff         there was an hn thread earlier today discussing the proper naming of the one css file that contains all your dirty hacks. original suggestion was shame.css, someone suggested guilt.css, third person chimed in "i've been doing this for years. mine's called ie8.css"
20:23 jcamins      The Koha upgrade is easy.
20:23 gglitch      Howdy. Enthusiastic novice here. I've just inherited a Koha 3.0.4 installation on an Ubuntu 10.04 server. Am I better off trying to upgrade both Ubuntu and Koha, or freshly installing each, and figuring out how to migrate my data?
20:23 jcamins      It still makes me miserable.
20:23 jcamins      Exactly.
20:23 jcamins      jeff: yep.
20:23 jeff         jcamins: interop testing?
20:22 jcamins      Why do I use IE?
20:22 jcamins      The tab key stopped working.
20:22 * jcamins    curses IE.
20:22 gglitch      Hi jcamins :)
20:22 jcamins      You can just go ahead and ask your question.
20:22 * jcamins    waves to gglitch.
20:21 cait         ?
20:21 cait         tge=
20:20 rangi        Tge
20:20 rangi        Clean break
20:20 rangi        Others can switch at the financial year
20:19 rangi        Libraries who like retarded acqui can use the current system
20:19 cait         I was quite new around here back then
20:19 rangi        Acquisition isn't hard we just made it be
20:19 cait         rangi: sorry
20:18 rangi        Way way way less difficult
20:18 cait         it's like search rewrite... only more difficult
20:18 rangi        And don't talk to me about 3.0 as if we had any control over it
20:18 cait         and how will libraries using it now be moved over?
20:18 cait         but who will fund a complete rewrite?
20:17 rangi        It's a massive waste of everyone's time otherwise
20:16 rangi        You don't keep fixing a pile of crap you start again
20:15 cait         no, but it requires work
20:15 rangi        It's not too late
20:14 cait         but noone did
20:14 cait         before release
20:14 cait         i mean we should have worried about that when it was sitting in the 3.0 to be master
20:14 jcamins      But isn't it a glorious thought?
20:14 jcamins      I know.
20:14 cait         hm I thik that is a bit late now
20:14 jcamins      Yeah, but you wouldn't start out with an impossible-to-reconcile mess.
20:13 cait         but even then, if the structure of funds changed between years, roll over would run into problems
20:13 rangi        And fails audits
20:13 jcamins      Exactly. Rollover would require a clean slate and sane structures.
20:13 rangi        Cos its shit
20:13 cait         or do start again
20:13 rangi        You'd have to start again
20:13 jcamins      ie--
20:13 cait         and then roll over
20:13 cait         have a page with old and new funds... and let the library map them
20:12 cait         jcamins: it woudl be hard, but not hopeless I think, you'd probably have to do a mapping
20:12 rangi        My stop brb
20:12 jcamins      Automatic rollover is probably hopeless, but it seems to me that making it possible to change the fund/budget at receive might make it vaguely less painful when the new fiscal year starts.
20:12 rangi        Because that would just be disheartening
20:11 cait         lol thx wahanui
20:11 rangi        I wouldn't
20:11 wahanui      well, bugzilla is found at http://bugs.koha-community.org
20:11 cait         bugzilla
20:11 wahanui      mailing list is at http://koha-community.org/support/koha-mailing-lists/
20:11 cait         mailing list
20:11 cait         i would encourage them to write it down
20:11 rangi        There's hours worth
20:11 cait         you could program that... but because the structure is not well, it might get really difficult
20:11 drojf        at least the basket grouping is fancy with the draggy and the droppy :D
20:10 rangi        The plus thing sux
20:10 rangi        You can't roll over
20:10 cait         yeah i agree with that
20:10 rangi        Funds and budgets are backwards
20:10 cait         france/germany might be similar insane :)
20:10 cait         hm for our libraries it's the opposite, but it might be a question of workflow
20:09 rangi        It's true though
20:09 cait         did they tell you what they hate?
20:09 cait         rangi: ouch
20:09 khall        bye cait!
20:09 cait         bye khall
20:09 rangi        A library asked me on Tuesday why does acqui get worse each release
20:09 khall        well, it's time for me to run. Later all!
20:09 * khall      lowers his white flag and hoists his jolly roger!
20:08 drojf        i think i'll take some of the head/desk thingy jcamins recommended ;)
20:08 rangi        Acqui is next for a rewrite
20:08 drojf        i see
20:08 cait         i mean group the orders, make one pdf
20:08 cait         sending out composed pdf orders
20:08 * drojf      wonders what that function is for at all…
20:07 cait         drojf: because you asked me? :)
20:07 drojf        will try
20:07 khall        that's the problem to me
20:07 drojf        ok thanks
20:07 tweetbot     [off] twitter: @esilibrary: "Great Job ESI Support Team! http://t.co/4DlAulXb83  #egils #kohails"
20:07 drojf        how would i know? :D
20:07 rangi        Right
20:07 drojf        AH!
20:07 cait         you can only add closed baskets
20:07 khall        right?
20:07 cait         did you close your baskets?
20:07 khall        rangi: but if the item is checked out, goes overdue, and is returned before fines.pl is run, it doesn't get a fine.
20:07 rangi        Lol link
20:07 cait         ah
20:07 rangi        You could kindly the 2 sysprefs
20:07 drojf        lol @ ie
20:07 cait         ok, oyu have the screen with 2 columns
20:07 drojf        because no baskets are shown
20:07 jcamins      cait: I'm trying to help him survive!
20:06 drojf        i just cant add anything
20:06 cait         don't dicourage a nice tester!
20:06 drojf        cait: that is where i am. i have that basket group
20:06 cait         jcamins: tsk
20:06 jcamins      drojf: then bang your head on the desk until acq stops hurting.
20:06 cait         don't trie in internet explorer... but it's unlikely you would do that, right?
20:06 * khall      waves his white flag
20:06 rangi        No they might only level fines at the end of the day but you get fined the amount you are overdue
20:06 cait         and then drag and drop them
20:06 cait         there should be a new button somewhere there
20:06 cait         check for the basket groups page
20:05 cait         drojf: go to the vendor page
20:05 khall        the cronjob would have to run every minute, then, right?
20:05 tcohen       (true story)
20:05 jcamins      Hehe.
20:05 rangi        Good plan
20:04 tcohen       hey rangi, I told that guyz to download a livecdz and don't bother here
20:04 rangi        No you might want it to fine with the cron job job
20:04 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10111 minor, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, Needs Signoff , Layout on basket summary page a bit inconsistent
20:04 drojf        i would try bug 10111 but i fail to understand how to group baskets?! i have baskets for a vendor, but when i open the add basket group tab "ungrouped baskets" is empty
20:04 khall        if you don't want it to, you just set the fine amount to 0
20:04 huginn       rangi: 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)
20:04 wahanui      http://xkcd.com/1172/
20:04 rangi        @quote get 123
20:04 rangi        Unless you don't want it to
20:04 khall        it would make it all more user-friendly, don't you think?
20:03 khall        right, but *if* you fine, it should just work
20:03 rangi        Only if you fine
20:03 khall        I think for hourly it should always be forced, otherwise the circ rules don't function correctly.
20:02 cait         :)
20:02 cait         but even horizon didn't do that
20:02 cait         and hate was maybe strong...
20:02 rangi        None, hourly, all
20:02 rangi        But that would allow it to be trinary
20:01 rangi        I'm still adding a syspref
20:01 khall        rangi: what do you think of that solution?
20:01 rangi        It shouldn't ever fly anywhere
20:01 khall        so yeah, I think the idea of having the issue flagged as hourly or daily is the way to go
20:01 cait         also we could have real 'neverending' loans with a marker that way
20:01 khall        we could strip out the time if it's 23:59, but that's again using a 'magic number' which doesn't seem to fly here
20:01 cait         we should not display times for daily loans.
20:00 cait         it's confusing for 100% of our libraries as they don't have any need for hourly loans
20:00 cait         i hate that we display 23:59
20:00 cait         but long term we should do just that
20:00 cait         khall: it's more involved
20:00 rangi        3.8
20:00 khall        or we could add a flag to the issues table to say 'this is hourly' or 'this is daily', but that's even more involved.
19:59 rangi        Yes and it sux and annoys patrons
19:59 khall        hasn't it been like this for a number of releases now? When was hourly added?
19:59 jcamins      Add a note to the hourly loans syspref saying "you must enable whatever if you want to charge fines on hourly loans."
19:59 rangi        I prefer that to breaking the workflow of existing koha users
19:58 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10120 major, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Fine recalculation on return needs to be a system preference
19:58 cait         bug 10120
19:58 rangi        Serves them right then
19:58 jcamins      23:59 is a real time, which means it is a valid time for something to be due, and using magic numbers always causes problems down the line.
19:58 khall        however, with the syspref, if a library uses hourly loans and disables the fines-on-return they won't get fines on the hourly loans
19:57 rangi        Magic numbers are a horrible idea
19:57 khall        lol
19:57 khall        which would make the non-syspref way *more* fast
19:57 rangi        Eww god no
19:57 khall        or you could just look at the due date and assume anything due at 23:59 is non hourly
19:57 rangi        Slower
19:57 rangi        Exactly
19:56 khall        i guess you'd have to pull the rule
19:56 rangi        How do you know it was an hourly loan on return
19:56 khall        I don't see how that would be slower and more error prone, can you explain?
19:56 cait         i am filing the bug
19:56 rangi        Yep
19:56 cait         maybe have a pref: not at all, only hourly, all
19:56 rangi        I'll add the syspref if no one else does
19:55 rangi        That would be slower and more error prone than a syspref
19:55 cait         rangi: what do you think?
19:55 khall        no way to mess up the configuration by accident
19:55 khall        no need for a syspref then,
19:55 khall        it's necessary for the hourly loans, and we could just fix it by only calculating fines on return for hourly loans
19:54 rangi        Cool well let me restate it does
19:54 cait         I am filing a bug
19:54 cait         mine, jcamins and rangi
19:54 cait         well, we got the third vote for a syspref now
19:54 khall        that's how this convo began ; )
19:54 rangi        Because it doesn't fit the workflow of many libraries
19:54 rangi        As an aside
19:53 khall        I can't imagine a way around that
19:53 rangi        Fine on return needs to be able to be disabled
19:53 khall        any changes to fine rules must be retroactive to open checkouts
19:53 khall        it's just delayed by a few hours
19:53 cait         fines is giving me headaches
19:53 khall        yup
19:53 cait         hm but that would be a problem with fines.pl too I guess
19:52 cait         and now we now why calculating on return can turn out really bad
19:52 cait         and then... when I returned... I got a credit for the difference
19:52 cait         I changed the configuration and added a maxfine that was much lower than before
19:51 cait         then for testing this
19:51 cait         I had that book checked out in the past - with a higher fine applying
19:51 khall        unique ids! unique ids everywhere!
19:51 cait         with my new configuration
19:51 cait         it recalculated
19:51 khall        No more identifying fines by the description
19:51 cait         oh i think i know
19:51 khall        again, my new account system will fix that ; )
19:51 cait         I still have to figure out how I got the credit
19:51 cait         that's good then
19:51 cait         ok
19:51 khall        in that case, not a real world problem.
19:50 khall        same day = same due date/time = ignored
19:50 khall        it's based on the description which has the due date/time in it
19:50 rangi        It should check date too so yes
19:50 cait         morning rangi
19:50 khall        cait: I think your on to something
19:50 cait         i have to find an older checkout
19:50 wahanui      Morning is a state of cat
19:50 rangi        Morning
19:50 cait         i wonder if it's aproblem because I am doing it on the same day - which would not be possible without a time machine
19:49 cait         hmm
19:49 khall        sure it would be. Anyone who checks out a book more than once but returned it late the first time.
19:49 cait         i am trying to find out if that woudl be a problem in a real life setting
19:48 khall        that sounds very familiar
19:48 cait         i guess so
19:48 khall        ugh, it's probably seeing the old fine and saying "The fines already there, I don't need to update it"
19:46 cait         it works once you use a new patron
19:45 cait         pay fine - do the same again - no fine
19:45 cait         check out the item backdated - return - fine recalculates
19:44 cait         it works exactly once
19:44 cait         I thik it'*s a matter of cheating when testing
19:44 cait         ok
19:43 khall        : )=
19:42 jcamins      khall: new problem. :)
19:42 cait         so am i
19:42 khall        I'm confused ; )
19:41 cait         it's on
19:41 khall        if finesmode is off, it shouldn't, right?
19:41 cait         and now it doesn't
19:41 cait         no I mean it did calculate the fine exactly once
19:41 cait         it doesn't calculate the fine now on return
19:41 khall        you mean it's not calculating when you run fines.pl?
19:41 khall        hmm
19:40 cait         khall: don't hide! :)
19:37 cait         but it did before
19:37 cait         it's not calculating
19:37 cait         at all
19:37 cait         I switched finesmode off an don... and now it doesn't work
19:37 cait         khall: ook
19:35 cait         thx jcamins
19:34 jcamins      Just a reminder for those around that string freeze is next Wednesday.
19:31 cait         I did set it back to calculate
19:31 cait         but thx for providing hints
19:31 cait         tcohen: not using memcache
19:31 jcamins      Probably changing finesmode?
19:31 tcohen       memcached sysprefs?
19:31 cait         koha!!
19:31 cait         now it stopped doing it
19:31 cait         ugh
19:29 tcohen       several things were working while the Calendar wasn't, so i'm not suprised this errors arise
19:28 khall        this is why I'm rewriting the accounts system ; )
19:28 tcohen       cait: we should have unit tests that express the desired behaviour
19:28 khall        maybe it's gone screwy, perhaps someone made a number negative when it should be positive or visa versa
19:28 cait         they will suddenly have a lot of fines everywhere
19:28 khall        it should be lowering the fine amount on recalculation
19:28 cait         and didn't disable the pref
19:28 cait         if a library has just turned off  the cronjob
19:27 cait         and still thinking this new behaviour needs documentation
19:27 cait         now I stil have to find out how I ended up with credit
19:27 cait         it seems to respect finesmode at least
19:27 cait         or not
19:27 cait         this is seriously borked
19:26 cait         i remember rangi argueing on some bug about that
19:26 khall        iirc
19:26 khall        backdate, which causes the fine to be re-calculated
19:26 cait         jcamins: it used to do that yes
19:25 jcamins      I thought all dropbox mode in Koha did was back-date the checkin.
19:25 jcamins      5644 says RESOLVED-FIXED.
19:25 cait         because if the fine does not show in the patron account... it should not suddenly appear at the circ desk
19:25 khall        hm, I was under the impression that is did! What behavior is dropbox mode expected to have?
19:25 cait         khall: I think itmight not be ok to do that
19:24 jcamins      Though that may have been fixed.
19:24 jcamins      I was under the impression it did not, no.
19:24 khall        that's how Koha's dropbox mode works, right?
19:24 jcamins      Drop box mode will charge only the fines that were owed yesterday.
19:23 jcamins      I think it's Horizon.
19:23 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5644 critical, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, RESOLVED FIXED, dropbox mode doesn't set the correct date
19:23 jcamins      Bug 5644.
19:23 khall        how does it work in horizon?
19:22 jcamins      The ILS used by public libraries.
19:22 wahanui      i think Horizon is proprietary software.
19:22 jcamins      Horizon?
19:22 jcamins      It's the workaround for dropbox mode not working the same as in...
19:22 jcamins      khall: I can.
19:21 khall        jcamins: can you describe a real world situation like that? I'm having a hard time thinking of one.
19:20 * cait       nods
19:20 jcamins      The most obvious place where it's a problem would be if you run your cronjob at an odd time in order to change when fines accrue.
19:20 jcamins      It's definitely a necessary feature, but it should be possible to disable, since it does change the way that fines function.
19:20 khall        why?
19:19 cait         well maybe it should only do hourly calculations then
19:19 khall        it should still respect finesmod
19:19 cait         hm, wonder if finesmode turns it off
19:19 khall        it was a necessary addition for hourly loans
19:19 cait         or there might be a reason you turn off the fines cronjob
19:19 khall        you should still be running fines.pl nightly
19:19 cait         or something like that
19:19 cait         libraries might have patrons pay the fine before returning the book
19:18 cait         because it's a major workflow change
19:18 khall        why is that?
19:18 khall        if the fine is up-to-date then the recalculation shouldn't do anything
19:18 jcamins      That's a bit of a massive oversight.
19:18 cait         that's bad.
19:18 khall        I don't believe so
19:18 cait         can you switch that off?
19:18 khall        cait, yes
19:18 khall        usually bad
19:18 cait         by force?
19:17 cait         do we calculate fines on return now?
19:17 wahanui      somebody said interesting was sometimes good and sometimes bad
19:17 cait         hm interesting
19:17 khall        I see, keep at it!
19:17 cait         now trying to investigate more
19:17 tcohen       ouch
19:17 cait         i found it testing 10030
19:17 cait         not sure might be a new bug once I am done
19:16 khall        what bug number was that cait?
19:16 cait         tcohen, khall: i can reproduce the fine weirdnesson master
19:16 jcamins      Patches are welcome, of course, but the solution to that particular problem is "don't open your CSVs in Excel."
19:15 jcamins      tcohen: actually, I was planning on ignoring the issue.
19:15 tcohen       so, we now have to wrap 'open' to test for BOM first :-P
19:13 jcamins      Ditto FRBR.
19:13 jcamins      Actually, I would object to RDA even if we weren't using MARC.
19:12 cait         ah
19:12 wahanui      http://02varvara.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/01-how-about-no-bear.jpg?w=800
19:12 cait         we should use more marc
19:12 cait         hm.
19:12 cait         more marc
19:12 cait         you  have to make a serious face when saying it
19:11 magnuse      :-)
19:11 jcamins      :)
19:11 jcamins      There it is.
19:11 jcamins      should we use more marc?
19:11 wahanui      http://02varvara.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/01-how-about-no-bear.jpg?w=800
19:11 magnuse      we should use more marc
19:11 cait         hm
19:10 cait         more marc?
19:10 magnuse      maybe we should use more marc?
19:09 maximep      good to know
19:08 magnuse      lol
19:08 jcamins      As RDA is entirely useless, one wouldn't want to spend a whole lot of time on that.
19:08 jcamins      I'm sure he just overlooked them.
19:08 maximep      weird, this doc from 2009 has those fields http://www.loc.gov/marc/formatchanges-RDA.html. I think I will ask Chris directly when he comes by
19:04 jcamins      You should add the missing field(s) and upload a new framework.
19:04 maximep      ok
19:04 jcamins      No, that field is valid in bibliographic records apparently, but the documentation just points you to authority records.
19:03 maximep      oh, am I confusing authority and bibliographic fields ?
19:02 cait         that makes sense
19:02 cait         aah
19:02 jcamins      Probably because it is confusingly labelled and the link takes you to the authority spec.
19:02 maximep      hmmm
19:01 cait         maybe he just missed it
19:01 maximep      for exemple 377 - Associated Language (R)
19:01 * jcamins    doesn't know what field you're talking about.
19:00 maximep      maybe I just don't understand all that stuff
19:00 maximep      sql was uploabed by Chris in December 2012
18:59 jcamins      maximep: it could be the field was added in an update after the framework was made.
18:59 cait         which fields do you miss?
18:59 maximep      but I admin I know pretty much nothing about that stuff :/
18:58 maximep      hey guys, a quesiton about the RDA marc21 framework. I don't understand why the sql at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/MARC_frameworks#RDA_Framework doesnt seem to have the field I see on http://www.loc.gov/marc/RDAinMARC.html

18:37 cait         thank you
18:36 gmcharlt     cait: I'll do so in a bit
18:36 cait         becasue I am confused now
18:36 cait         maybe someone else should put it on the agenda :)
18:36 jcamins      cait: if more than one person wants the role.
18:36 gmcharlt     cait: contested
18:35 cait         gmcharlt: contest?
18:24 jcamins      ie--
18:19 gmcharlt     *contested
18:19 gmcharlt     cait: unless it looks like it's going to be contest, I have no objection to voting then
18:19 cait         brb
18:17 cait         it's not on the agenda yet: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/General_IRC_meeting,_7_May_2013
18:16 jcamins      cait: I have no objection.
18:16 cait         gmcharlt, jcamins, druthb: should we vote on translation manager next meeting?
17:48 cait         that's a bit late - but still awesome :)
17:48 cait         one of the library schools here now offers 'library computer science'

16:13 cait         zes
16:07 druthb       cait, are zou having kezboard issues?
16:06 cait         oleonard: i will trz to find it
16:05 jcamins      And searchpagination would look like: { '1' => url1, '2' => url2, .. '5' => url5, '32' => url32 }
16:05 oleonard     I don't see that bug cait
16:04 jcamins      Something like this: [% searchpagination | FILTER paginator %]
16:03 cait         i will need a new chat app eventuallz
16:03 cait         ugh
16:03 jcamins      Wrong window. :P
16:03 cait         wide smiling smilez
16:03 cait         actuallz i am reallz reallz pleased that someone is pazing zou for fixing up acq
16:02 jcamins      You'd pass an array of page number => URL to the block.
16:02 cait         i filed it, but it|s not template but acq i think
16:02 jcamins      Sure.
16:02 cait         have zou sen the bug about the doubled up pagination on... order receive i think_
16:02 oleonard     We'd have to pass in the URL somehow jcamins
16:02 wahanui      oleonard is still here, if you just wish hard enough. or Koha's master UI designer
16:02 cait         oh oleonard
16:01 jcamins      At the very least, we could have a block that does the markup.
16:01 jcamins      oleonard: probably could.
16:01 oleonard     jcamins: I wonder if we could do pagination bars better through TT? Right now some are built in Output.pm
15:56 huginn       rambutan: The operation succeeded.
15:56 rambutan     @later tell khall plz ping me when you get a chance
15:45 cait         nice trz >(
15:43 jcamins      Oh well.
15:43 jcamins      Not so consistent as I thought.
15:43 jcamins      Hm.
15:42 oleonard     Those buttons usually come with lots of hidden form fields
15:42 jcamins      The idea being that the title and buttons should be consistent and only the message in the center changes.
15:41 jcamins      [% IF whatever %][% PROCESS pleaseconfirm %]message...[% END %][% END %]
15:41 huginn       rambutan: khall was last seen in #koha 4 hours, 19 minutes, and 36 seconds ago: <khall> magnuse: we finally opened the bag of chocolates from you last night. They were most excellent!
15:41 rambutan     @seen khall
15:40 oleonard     How would that work?
15:39 jcamins      Using a TT filter for the "Please confirm" dialog.
15:39 jcamins      You know what would be nice?
15:38 cait         its onlz the chat program.... must be a bug
15:38 cait         onlz the smilezs are a bit sad
15:38 jcamins      So you'll fit right in.
15:38 cait         zeah
15:38 jcamins      Yup.
15:38 oleonard     Lucky for you we're adding zzz to everything today anyway ;)
15:37 cait         smiling smilez at the end there
15:37 cait         i can, but it will look funnz >(
15:37 jcamins      Poor cait. No more touch typing.
15:37 cait         no idea where the questionmark is now
15:37 cait         it is_
15:36 oleonard     Actually what I most disagree with is that we handle different cases differently UI-wise. Sometimes the barcode form is disabled, sometimes it is hidden
15:35 jcamins      Right.
15:35 jcamins      Oh, like checking a book that is already checked out to Patron A to Patron B.
15:35 oleonard     Yes, including some which I disagree with. I wonder if I can remember what they are...
15:35 cait         so maybe we would onlz need to change the tzpe of the message_
15:34 jcamins      There are?
15:34 cait         that limits my vocabulary
15:34 oleonard     There are other circ operations which block subsequent scans until something has been acknowledged
15:34 cait         grr tablet thinks keyboard should be english
15:34 jcamins      I'm not sure how I feel about that.
15:33 jcamins      I was asked about some sort of modal dialog that forces the circ person to acknowledge that a barcode doesn't exist.
15:32 oleonard     I figure the issue is basically the same.
15:31 jcamins      I wasn't thinking about intentional theft. More about high volumes of circ and inadvertant slips.
15:31 oleonard     We can't afford to implement any kind of RFID security system or whatever.
15:30 jcamins      You have a fairly busy library, so it seems like it would be easy to have a barcode mis-scan and not notice.
15:30 jcamins      Ah.
15:30 oleonard     We don't.
15:30 jcamins      How do you make sure that all the books a patron leaves with are actually checked out?
15:29 oleonard     Sure
15:29 jcamins      oleonard: I have a question for you about your library's circ workflow.
15:29 reiveune     bye
15:27 cait         \waves
15:21 jcamins      It just occurred to me, it could be that your patrons are marked as statistical.
15:20 jcamins      And you get the local usage message when you are checking books in or checking books out?
15:20 samuel       3.10.04
15:19 oleonard     Me too samuel. What version are you using?
15:19 jcamins      Hm. That feature works correctly for me, so I can't tell you what the problem is.
15:19 tweetbot     [off] twitter: @infoCCSR: "Ménage du printemps pour la communauté Koha-CCSR! http://t.co/bL2YbWNVM0 cc/@kohails #ccsr #logiciellibre"
15:18 samuel       RecordLocalUseOnReturn is disabled
15:18 jcamins      That was not clear to me.
15:17 jcamins      oleonard: okay, so we're sure the items were checked out?
15:17 oleonard     It should only display for items which were not checked out as I understand it.
15:17 oleonard     jcamins: The problem is he sees the message when checking in items which were checked out.
15:16 jcamins      samuel: if the "problem" is just that you don't want to record local uses, your options are to either not scan items in when they don't need to be or disable RecordLocalUseOnReturn. However, I still have no idea what the problem is.
15:15 samuel       each time i scan a barcode, there is this message
15:14 oleonard     samuel: You see the message for books which were checked out?
15:13 jcamins      If it is an item that was supposed to have been circulated, the problem is that your circ staff didn't check the book out to the patron.
15:13 jcamins      "Local use recorded" means that Koha is recording a local use on the item.
15:12 wahanui      i think the problem is it's human beings doing it. Rebuild your indexes.
15:12 jcamins      What is the problem?
15:11 samuel       oups, i don't really understand. Is it a parameter which could be the source of the problem?
15:09 jcamins      Sounds like you need to train your circ librarians to check books out to patrons.
15:09 samuel       it's for all books
15:08 jcamins      samuel: that means the book wasn't checked out.
15:05 samuel       i've a problem: i've this message "local use recorded" when i scan a barcode
15:04 samuel       hi everybody
14:48 jcamins      But I wanted to confirm.
14:48 jcamins      I said "yes, I think so."
14:48 jcamins      I was asked if that was likely to go into Koha at some point.
14:48 oleonard     I was hoping to. Why?
14:47 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8661 minor, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, Failed QA , break out additional authors in opac like in staff
14:47 jcamins      oleonard: are you planning to address relator term codes and rebase bug 8661 for 3.14?
14:04 tcohen       *but* unless the allow from localhost thing, it doesn't work
14:04 jcamins      Yeah, that's what it looks like to me too.
14:04 tcohen       marc21_field_006.pl seems to just read from the filesystem
14:03 tcohen       looks like the cgi script is forbidden access to the XML... which is rare as the templates are also forbidden...
14:02 tcohen       that's what i0m not understanding actualy
14:02 jcamins      tcohen: wait... we request the XML from the web server?
14:01 tcohen       jcamins, we could revert that patch, or add an "Allow from 127.0.0.1" line
13:59 tcohen       can anyone using apache, on a new dev/standard install confirm this problem?
13:55 tcohen       hehe
13:55 jcamins      I don't use Apache.
13:55 jcamins      Oh, wait.
13:55 tcohen       did u re-run the install? (so that Deny from all sentence gets included?)
13:54 jcamins      Just did, yeah.
13:54 tcohen       tried using the value builder for 006?
13:53 jcamins      tcohen: works for me.
13:53 tcohen       which is strange, because I don't know what doez apache have to do with a .pl script being forbidden accezz to an xml file in the filesystemz

13:37 kf           bye :)
13:31 kf           oleonard++ :)
13:24 marcelr      tcohen++ #utf8 work
13:23 druthb       Around here, in residential neighborhoods, and parks, that's about the only place it's safe to ride a bicycle.
13:23 tcohen       marcelr++ # for starting the UTF-8 handling wiki page
13:22 marcelr      yeah in our country biking is much safer
13:22 druthb       It's not that far, no, but the traffic—  no.  Four lanes each way, major-major street, 50 km/hr speed limit.  Not safe for bicycles, at all.
13:22 marcelr      jcamins: send a message to dev about the encodings
13:21 marcelr      we should have it in koha
13:20 marcelr      have to calculate that to celsius
13:20 marcelr      fahrenheit i suppose :)
13:19 jcamins      I don't think I'd want to bike in 100 degree heat, though.
13:18 marcelr      25 minutes
13:18 marcelr      11 km is not that much for a bike though
13:16 druthb       I live about 11.5 km from work.  Far enough that a bike ride would be longish, even if I didn't have to ride on a super-busy street.  But easy-peasy, on a scooter.
13:13 marcelr      :)
13:12 druthb       There are several cPanelers who live close enough to bike, and they do.
13:12 druthb       Bikes are good if your city is compact enough for that.  Houston is not.
13:12 marcelr      you should see holland
13:12 * druthb     would never do that, marcelr, unless walking her scooter if the engine had quit.
13:12 * tcohen     is ashamed he loves his car
13:11 marcelr      what about a bike?
13:11 druthb       Cheap to insure, cheap to operate…The only people who lose out with more-scooters is the big oil companies...
13:11 marcelr      no scooters plzzz on the bike path
13:08 druthb       More scooters also makes it *safer* for scooters, motorcycles, and bicycles.  People will get used to watching for smaller chariots.
13:06 oleonard     I CAN HAZ SCOOTERZZZ PLZZZ?!
13:06 druthb       scooooooterzorz!
13:06 tcohen       you don't have dulce de leche either
13:06 jcamins      oleonard: or, as one might say, I need more scooterzzzz.
13:05 oleonard     The United States is way behind the rest of the world in important areas like health care, broadband, and scooter ownership.
13:04 tcohen       hey, that's a nice scooter btw
13:03 tcohen       sh*tz
13:03 druthb       Blue. :)
13:03 kf           which color is it? :)
13:03 tcohen       git checkout clean_master ; git pull
13:00 druthb       One thing, though…Houston streets remind me of Mumbai, minus all the horns and little black-and-yellow rickshaws…  holes *everywhere*
13:00 druthb       but I'd rather not.
12:59 druthb       Oh, I *could* get on a lesser-highway with this, for very short distances—at 2 AM when no one is around.
12:59 jcamins      :P
12:59 jcamins      That's good, because it's a motor scooter!
12:59 oleonard     Nice
12:59 druthb       About 15 minutes. City streets, no highway.
12:58 oleonard     Snazzy. How long is your commute?

12:58 magnuse      it's the small things :-)
12:58 magnuse      hehe
12:57 druthb       It's a dream to ride, but I was startled to discover that the speedometer is in km/h.  I looked down, and it said "50", and I thought, "that's nuts."  Then I noticed the little lettering...
12:56 magnuse      yay, congrats druthb
12:54 * druthb     enjoyed her ride to work this morning on her new motorscooter.
12:54 druthb       *squee*
12:53 huginn       tcohen: The operation succeeded.
12:53 tcohen       @later tell eythian: we could do smth like "for lang in $(koha-translate --list) ; do koha-translate --update $lang ; done" during the packages update

12:38 jcamins      Interesting.
12:35 * magnuse    discovers that git does not like $ in commit messages
12:35 kf           hi oleonard :)
12:35 magnuse      kia ora oleonard
12:35 oleonard     Hi #koha
12:19 kf           ok :) thx for adopting those bugs marcelr++ :)
12:17 marcelr      kf: that is fine
12:17 kf           marcelr: should I cc you and ? when I find problems with diacritics?
12:08 * magnuse    is under that impression too
12:07 jcamins      Also likely to be a bit stupid. ;)
12:07 magnuse      nope, proprietary ils
12:06 wahanui      i think Excel is a bit stupid.
12:06 jcamins      magnuse: Excel?
12:06 magnuse      yeah sure, "06-DEC-12" is probably a good way to store a date
12:02 kf           jcamins:  I am not sure
11:47 jcamins      I was told that they used to be sorted in reverse date order, but now they are not.
11:47 jcamins      kf: when you're receiving items, you have to choose an invoice.
11:46 kf           jcamins: context?
11:35 jcamins      kf: were invoices ever sorted?

11:20 marcelr      jcamins: bug 6554 ?
11:20 kf           I am wondering not if it's in reality a bug with the fine refund for lost - but I can't check that installation now
11:19 kf           and I also tested lost stuff with this accout... it's rather hairy
11:19 kf           and those suddenly added up to a negative value
11:19 kf           this patron has a lot of past...
11:19 kf           itdidn't look like I got a credit line - something in the existing fine lines must have changed
11:18 jcamins      Hey, did I report the bug where if you click the plus to expand options on Orders search and then click the minus, the plus vanishes?
11:18 kf           exactly
11:18 khall        ugh, that's the worst kind of bug
11:18 kf           so there is maybe some additional factor playing into it
11:18 kf           but then... not
11:18 kf           then I tried repeating that with one item like notedon the bug, and coudl reproduce it twice
11:18 khall        wow, that's interesting
11:18 kf           and suddenly I had over 300+ euro credit
11:18 khall        yeah, I'll have to do some investigation.
11:18 kf           so I marked them all and returned them from the circ screen
11:17 kf           i started with an existing patron account that had lots over overdue checkouts
11:17 kf           maybe you have an idea as you know the code in ther ea bit
11:17 kf           it was seriously buggy what I saw
11:17 kf           i would have liked to investigatemore but ran out of time and had to get to work
11:17 kf           I am not sure if it's realted to your patch - see last note
11:16 khall        kf: I'll have to check that out
11:16 kf           khall: i tried testing maxfne this morning... but ran into some weirdnesses

11:14 slef         kf: please do.
11:14 kf           maybe I can show you the error sometime?
11:13 kf           meh.
11:13 slef         kf: worksforme
11:13 kf           QA problems :)
11:13 kf           I normally obsolete in the -e step
11:12 kf           interesting question
11:12 kf           hm
11:11 slef         kf: does it work without a patch attached?
11:11 kf           slef: I can edit the patch, but without -e it fails too
11:11 kf           only commit messages, patches seem fine
11:11 kf           it fails after saving that
11:10 kf           ah sorry no
11:10 marcelr      kf: is the problem utf8 in commit message only?
11:10 kf           it fails instantly on git bz attach
11:10 slef         kf: at what point goes it BOOM?
11:10 slef         kf: trying
11:10 kf           slef: maybe you could try that: git bz apply 10107, git bz attach -e 10107 HEAD
11:10 slef         or mess with update-alternatives if you want it system-wide
11:10 magnuse      slef: that's probably it, yeah
11:09 magnuse      some env variable i should have set
11:09 slef         or whatever
11:09 marcelr      jcamins: already awakezz
11:09 slef         export EDITOR=vim
11:09 magnuse      yeah, i get that sometimes too
11:09 kf           probably
11:09 kf           i could try switching that to vim
11:09 magnuse      nano?
11:09 slef         but that's only a filename, shouldn't be trouble
11:09 kf           magnuse: hm for git bz I have that other one opening up...
11:09 magnuse      for comit messages
11:09 magnuse      kf: vim, mostly
11:09 slef         line 1210 looks suspicious to me, calling ascii_uppercase
11:08 marcelr      good to hearzzz
11:08 kf           magnuse: which editor do you use?
11:08 magnuse      no errorzzz though
11:08 magnuse      i did a commit message recently where i copied the breadcrumbs, like Home > Something, and the character that looks kind of like > got mangled
11:08 kf           and n the end says something about ascii
11:08 kf           it's quite wordy
11:07 kf           slef: sorry, not on this computer
11:07 slef         kf: do you have a backtrace you can http://paste.koha-community.org ?
11:06 slef         kf: see if I can spot anything as I've been doing more python than perl recently
11:06 slef         kf: not recently. I was going to check the git-bz source
11:05 jcamins      I'm pretty sure I've successfully attached patches with UTF-8 in the commit message.
11:05 kf           if it's only me... that's also useful information
11:05 kf           slef: so if you tried a patch from tcohen - that works for you?
11:04 kf           slef: yes
11:03 slef         kf: I assume your locale is utf-8?
11:03 jcamins      tcohen: we should call the wrapper pythonzzzzzzz
11:03 slef         kf: maybe some .str being used instead of of .unicode or something
11:03 tcohen       :]
11:02 tcohen       Maybe we should wrap python-cgi-lwp to better handle utf8
11:02 kf           go back to bed ;)
11:02 * jcamins    is zzzzzzzzzzzleeepy
11:02 kf           errorrrrzzzzz

11:02 jcamins      plzzzzzzzz fix git-bzzzzzzzzzzz errorrrrrrrrrrrrrr
11:01 marcelr      ok
11:01 kf           it's a python error
11:01 kf           hm no I think it's especially git bz
11:01 marcelr      it is git?
11:01 kf           I think it's git bz
11:01 kf           tcohen: it's not only your patches, I get the same when I type something in german
11:01 marcelr      raar
11:01 kf           raring?
11:00 tcohen       I'll check it at work, maybe giving raring a try was not good after all
10:59 kf           tcohen: thx - but that was not the problem :) when I do git bz attach I get an error complaining about non ascii things :(
10:59 marcelr      i still have this error too with Córdoba :)
10:59 marcelr      tcohen: this seems to be related to the version of git you use

10:16 magnuse      oh noes
10:16 rangi        you use way to many z
10:16 rangi        whats a polite way to say "I really think you shouldn't be administering a complex system like Koha"
10:16 * kf         waves
10:15 rangi        drojf: there you go, mail on the mailing list, that totally should be in google groups
10:14 marcelr      ok thx
10:14 rangi        (i checked just in case)
10:14 rangi        marcelr:  22:10 -!- Irssi: No bans in channel #koha
10:12 rangi        :)
10:12 rangi        almost no one runs an identd daemon anymore
10:12 drojf        well, getting an irc client is a good test to see if you should ask your question here or in the google group anyway :D
10:12 rangi        (same ip, same identd)
10:12 rangi        you only need about 4 from the same ip, mibbit has about 15 ips it uses
10:11 drojf        strange
10:11 rangi        wasnt last time, we used to run into quite often i had to keep upping the maxconns
10:10 drojf        of course it's per network, but i mean having it coming with "our" server's ip and only have koha folk use it
10:10 rangi        oftc have their own one now
10:09 rangi        http://www.oftc.net/oftc/WebChat
10:08 rangi        not the channel
10:08 rangi        its for the network
10:08 drojf        oh, ok. i thought the limit would probably not matter for the few mibbitses we have here at the same time
10:08 rangi        well a dos anyway :)
10:07 rangi        it looks a lot like a ddos
10:07 rangi        it was just as bad, and would suffer the same problem, multiple connections from the same ip
10:07 rangi        we used to have that
10:07 drojf        not a fan of mibbit, but running a webfrontend for irc on our own servers would probably solve the problem for #koha (not volunteering to do that, get real clients everyone)
10:02 huginn       Oh no, not this fool again
10:01 marcelr      so much opportunities in bugzilla too
10:01 marcelr      :)
10:00 mtj          marcelr, think of your problem as an opportunity :p
09:57 marcelr      ok
09:57 rangi        we cant stop ppl joining the network
09:57 rangi        no, that was only for the channel
09:57 marcelr      :)
09:57 rangi        id recommend getting a real irc client ;-)
09:57 marcelr      could be; but there was some testing with banning..
09:57 rangi        (not just in #koha its for the whole network)
09:56 rangi        probably more ppl using mibbit to connect to irc
09:56 rangi        oftc (and any irc network) has a limit on the number of connections from the same ip number
09:56 marcelr      never had just for a few weeks now
09:56 marcelr      but it is a new phenomenon
09:56 rangi        it will depend on how many ppl are connected
09:56 marcelr      hi rangi: ok well second try mostly works :)
09:55 rangi        marcelr: nothing we can do about that
09:54 huginn       marcelr: The operation succeeded.
09:54 marcelr      @later tell rangi Sometimes banned when using mibbit for irc
09:52 marcelr      hi #koha

07:55 magnuse      just do it! :-)
07:53 kf           it's scary, I really want to nail that bug down tonight
07:53 kf           magnuse: i think it might have something to do with that account being my main test account, so there is some old data that might play into it
07:53 kf           magnuse: I saw - but not at the right computer now :(
07:52 magnuse      yay

06:59 rangi        just have to track down whats causing it
06:59 rangi        yeah
06:59 cait         i wondered that myself, but it's happened 3 times for me now and it's definitely not right
06:59 cait         i agree
06:59 rangi        it has nothign to do with credits
06:59 rangi        i dont think it could be the patch
06:59 cait         i have to go - if someone could run some tests that would be good
06:58 cait         now it didn't happen
06:58 cait         oh
06:58 cait         and seems ok on master
06:58 cait         yeah, but it only happens to me when the patch is applied right now :(
06:58 cait         I really have to run to work now
06:58 rangi        that doesnt do anything to do with returns
06:57 cait         but it would be good if someone else confrmed
06:57 cait         i couldn't replicate on master
06:57 rangi        its a one line change
06:57 rangi        you sure its teh patch?

06:34 rangi        mtj: thinking about it more, switching the xslt to be on by default (in new installs if it isnt already) would be a good patch i reckon
06:33 rangi        i think the author only talked to 2 people, so its a pretty shallow article
06:32 magnuse      nah, tomorrow is pizzaday
06:32 mtj          some of the history in that article is very 'wishful', on ptfs/liblimes part

06:24 rangi        [off] exactly, sometimes turning down is the best course, stating never  is just plain wrong
06:24 gmcharlt     [off] mediation assumes some level of good faith
06:23 rangi        [off] to that i respond with "Don't feed the trolls"
06:23 rangi        [off] this bit, i totally disagree with "Never turn down an opportunity to discuss an issue and seek a resolution. If two parties can't agree on terms by themselves, it may help to seek mediation from a third party who can broker a compromise."
06:21 rangi        [off] i see this is as an open source vs free software thing
06:21 rangi        [off] yeah this history bit is mosly right .. well mostly, and the conclusion to trust corporates less i agree with, but the insinuation that koha hasnt been good about attracting companies, or that the community should have bowed to any ptfs demands, or should have to compromise in any way at all is flawed
06:18 drojf        [off] trademark, right
06:17 rangi        [off] s/copyright/trademark/ and I agree
06:17 drojf        [off] i mean, apart from the copyright stuff… i couldn't care less about what they do and i don't see why people would "want them back". or have compromises about what to take from what version. or spend any time into merging it. if they really wanted to return to the community, there is a nice koha they can work on

06:13 cait         it would make this QAM really really happy if someone fixed it
06:13 drojf        [off] yes, i like the comment
06:13 cait         but seriously
06:13 * cait       volunteers tcohen to fix git bz because it just doesn't work with his library name in the patches
06:13 rangi        [off] i think my main contention has been addressed by rambutan, the idea that there needs to be some reconciliation is a flawed idea
06:13 cait         where did you pick that up?
