00:04 rangi        hi dcook
00:04 dcook        hey ya rangi
00:20 dcook        Apparently French police conducted a raid yesterday/today and seized 66 tonnes of miniature eiffel tower trinkets in a Parisian suburb
00:20 dcook        I did wonder where they all came from...
00:21 dcook        http://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2013/07/26/French-police-seize-66-tons-of-Eiffel-Tower-miniatures/UPI-95771374871005/
00:22 jcamins      Miniature Eiffel tower trinkets?
00:22 dcook        Yeah, those little ones they sell at the base of the eiffel tower
00:22 dcook        On key chains and such
00:23 jcamins      Ah.
00:24 wizzyrea     why, becasue they were tiny keyrings made out of pressed, lacquered, cocaine or something?
00:27 dcook        Nah, I imagine it's probably due to having no licences and paying no taxes
00:27 dcook        Possibly also due to annoying tourists
00:27 dcook        I quite disliked visiting the eiffel tower.
00:27 dcook        Paris in general really, although Montmartre and the Louvre were sweet.
00:28 dcook        I thought Musée d'Orsay was overrated despite supposedly being underrated...
00:28 dcook        But yeah...all I remember of the Eiffel tower really are the illegal street vendors and soldiers
00:28 dcook        (soldiers due to a bomb threat at the time or some such)
00:29 dcook        The Arc de Triomphe was neat...although Champs-Elysées is weird.
00:29 dcook        Free toilets in the McDo's though :p
00:35 dcook        Oh...I think I might've found the solution to yesterday's seemingly impossible problem!
00:42 dcook        Missing subscription history...
00:43 dcook        I had no idea that Led Zepplin had so many LotR references...shows what happens when you actually listen to lyrics
02:21 dcook        bug 10715
02:21 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10715 trivial, P5 - low, ---, dcook, Needs Signoff , MARC21 007 Plugin Editor doesn't load position 01
02:21 dcook        This might be the smallest patch I've ever seen
02:21 dcook        1 character change
02:22 dcook        If anyone wants one of the easiest sign-offs ever
02:55 dcook        For those of you who don't live in Australia: http://www.smh.com.au/small-business/entrepreneur/animal-onesies-a-booming-market-20130809-2rlq1.html
02:55 dcook        I don't know if onesies are a thing elsewhere in the world at the moment...
02:57 rangi        they seem to be
02:58 dcook        I really thought it was an Inner West thing here in Sydney for a while. Who knew?
03:11 rangi        http://gitlab.org/
03:11 rangi        potentially interesting
03:13 wizzyrea     very shiny
03:14 rangi        i might run it up for a test
03:14 * dcook      eats more chocolate cupcakes
03:14 wizzyrea     ruby... but, meh.
03:14 wizzyrea     if it works it works
03:15 jcamins      rangi: I think there was a reason I'd decided I didn't like that. Possibly that I couldn't get it to run because I tried to use it on a server that had other things.
03:15 jcamins      Looks like it requires a very particular version of Ruby and Python.
03:15 rangi        yep
03:15 jcamins      I remember seeing it and thinking it looked very cool, though.
03:16 rangi        ruby always have to be difficult
03:36 jcamins      Wow.
03:37 jcamins      Persona/BrowserID may be the easiest thing ever.
03:37 * jcamins    just added Persona authentication to Biblionarrator.
03:39 rangi        yup
03:40 jcamins      Now, at some point I need to make it look good, rather than just giving a 500: Permission denied error (especially since it shouldn't be a 500...) but I think the fact that it took me twenty minutes to add BrowserID authentication is still pretty cool.
03:41 * jcamins    goes to sleep now that he's ending on a high note.
03:41 dcook        \o/
03:41 dcook        night jcamins
03:43 dcook        Hmm, 50% of the cupcake supply has been diminished...
03:43 * dcook      is glad that there's no one in his office who can see him eating dessert first
06:17 * cait       waves
06:17 dcook        hey ya magnuse and cait :)
06:18 dcook        Wait a minute...
06:18 dcook        Shouldn't cait be on vacation? :o
06:18 cait         she is
06:18 dcook        Well in that case, glad to see you ^_^
06:18 dcook        salut laurence aussi!
06:18 * magnuse    waves
06:19 laurence     hi dcook, magnuse cait
06:20 magnuse      hiya dcook laurence cait
06:43 * magnuse    waves again
06:48 * cait       waves and runs off to breakfast
06:48 * dcook      continues eating chocolate cupcakes
06:48 dcook        I think I'm going about 2 cupcakes per hour at the moment...;)
06:53 christophe_c hello #koha

06:54 christophe_c bonjour magnuse ;-)
06:55 magnuse      "Humidity: 20%" that's not very humid...
06:55 dcook        " 12.0°C" that's not very warm ;)
06:55 dcook        It's been pretty nice recently. I think winter is coming to an end soon.
06:55 dcook        I went back to Canada this time last year, so this will be my first Australian spring...
06:57 magnuse      hehe
06:58 dcook        Wait a minute...does the work day start at 8am in Norway and France?
07:03 magnuse      8am in norway, 9am in france i think
07:04 christophe_c yes for us around 9am
07:05 dcook        I'll have to remember that when I visit ;)
07:07 christophe_c :)
07:09 magnuse      8am if you work in an office
07:10 magnuse      some foodstores have started opening at 7am
07:10 magnuse      bookshops and such usually open around 10am
07:10 sophie_m     hello #koha
07:22 magnuse      bonjour sophie_m
07:22 sophie_m     hello magnuse, no holidays for you ?
07:23 magnuse      sophie_m: oh, i had 3 weeks in july
07:24 sophie_m     ah, I was also on holidays, that's why I didn't saw it ;-)
07:24 magnuse      july is the big summer holiday month in norway, not august
07:24 magnuse      hehe, probably :-)
07:29 dcook        magnuse: What's the best time to visit Norway, would you say?
07:44 magnuse      dcook: summer
07:44 magnuse      unless you enjoy snow and cold and darkness
07:45 magnuse      oh, our summer, i mean
07:45 magnuse      so june, july, august
07:45 magnuse      august is probably the busiest month, because a lot of europe goes on holiday then
07:45 magnuse      so june or july, really
07:47 dcook        Cool. Good to know :)
07:47 dcook        That's winter here, so perfect timing ;)
07:47 magnuse      :-)
07:51 magnuse      and i would of cours erecommend going to northern norway
07:51 magnuse      to see the midnight sun and the spectacular scenery
07:51 magnuse      the Lofoten islands, for example
07:52 dcook        I'll have to remember that. Midnight sun sounds quite astonishing :)
07:52 magnuse      it is! :-)
07:53 magnuse      and these guys: http://flynonstop.no/ are just about to start a direct route from London to Bodø, so you could skip sothern norway completely ;-)
07:55 dcook        hehe
07:55 magnuse      (i grew up in the south, so i'm allowed to dis them :-)
07:55 dcook        hehe
07:56 dcook        I know the feeling
07:56 dcook        Growing up in the Canadian prairies, I feel offended if anyone insults them but people from there ;)
07:57 dcook        MARC--
07:57 dcook        AACR2--
07:57 dcook        (This whole "main entry", "added entry", "tracing paragraph" stuff is silly...)
07:58 magnuse      MARC is silly...
07:58 magnuse      dcook: http://www.lofoten.info/en
08:03 dcook        Whoa, I think I just levelled up my knowledge of added entries...
08:04 dcook        I suppose that knowledge is only valuable insofar as understanding how silly the concepts of main/added entries are in online cataloguing
08:04 dcook        magnuse: ah, cool! Thanks!
08:04 dcook        I don't know when I'll get a chance to visit Norway, but it's been on the list of places to visit for the past 10 years
08:04 * dcook      does some calculations
08:05 dcook        My materal great great grandparents were from Norway
08:05 dcook        maternal*
08:06 magnuse      cool, do you know whereabouts?
08:07 dcook        Alas, I do not :(. I only have 2 living relatives left on that side, and I'm not sure that even they would know :/
08:09 magnuse      ah, you can make it a quest then, 1 month in norway to locate your roots :-)
08:10 dcook        hehe
08:10 dcook        I like this idea!
08:10 dcook        Alas, I'm not sure how affordable that option might be though.
08:14 magnuse      yeah http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/expat-money/10130878/Now-Oslo-is-the-worlds-most-expensive-place-to-live.html
08:14 magnuse      see also http://www.garfors.com/2013/06/the-most-expensive-city-in-world.html for some corrections to the numbers
08:17 dcook        Hmm, these prices aren't dissimilar to Sydney
08:17 dcook        With the exception of the beer, perhaps
08:18 magnuse      we have lots of taxes on alcohol
08:18 dcook        They do here as well, although I suspect not as many
08:18 dcook        It's funny how relative costs are
08:19 dcook        I remember thinking how Canadian alcohol was expensive (in comparison to American alcohol), but it is cheaper than Australian alcohol (which is cheaper than Norwegian alcohol)
08:19 dcook        I'm going to the cinema tonight, but fortunately it's cheap night, so it'll be about 12 dollars instead of the usual 17-20
08:19 magnuse      :-)
08:19 dcook        These stats are also relative
08:19 dcook        This website says Sydney is 17th most expensive, but I've read other articles that say it's the 5th
08:20 dcook        And that Vancouver is the most expensive city in Canada, if not North America
08:20 * dcook      shrugs
08:23 magnuse      yeah, depends on what you measure, i guess
08:24 magnuse      i hope we can have kohacon in norway one day, but i'm afraid prices will scare people from coming
08:25 magnuse      but i guess we could always just tell people not to buy bottled water in shops...
08:25 dcook        hehe
08:25 dcook        I would love to have a Kohacon in Norway!
08:26 dcook        I imagine that prices might scare people though :/
08:26 dcook        Not sure
08:26 dcook        But, I should be running
08:26 dcook        Great talking as always :)
08:26 dcook        Take care!
08:26 magnuse      enjoy your movie dcook
08:26 magnuse      gah, he's so quick...
08:53 magnuse      moin drojf
08:53 drojf        hei magnuse
08:53 drojf        and #koha
08:58 rangi        hi magnuse and drojf
08:59 magnuse      kia ora rangi
08:59 drojf        hi rangi
08:59 magnuse      MARC::Doc::Tutorial++
09:07 drojf        149 bugs need signoff again? you people work too much
09:10 * magnuse    agrees :-)
09:10 magnuse      good thing next gbsd is in less than 2 weeks
09:10 magnuse      next gbsd?
09:10 wahanui      i think next gbsd is http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/2013-08-23_Global_bug_squashing_day
09:10 drojf        :)
09:11 magnuse      but we do need to get more people squashing bugs
09:11 drojf        i just wanted to say, it would be cool if more than ~3 people attend next time ;)
09:11 magnuse      yup
09:11 rangi        heh
09:12 rangi        i did what i could
09:12 drojf        i accidentally did 1/4 of the signoffs and i did not have time to take part really :D
09:12 magnuse      will there be anything for potential new squashers at kohacon13?
09:12 rangi        yep
09:13 rangi        i think i did 9
09:13 rangi        but yeah there will always be some waiting
09:13 rangi        probably 150 unimarc ones by then
09:13 drojf        lol
09:14 drojf        i think we should drop unimarc support :P
09:14 magnuse      hehe
09:14 drojf        well, marc support in general, but unimarc is a start :D
09:14 magnuse      yeah, let's do it while everyone at biblibre is on holiday :-)
09:16 drojf        ;)
09:17 rangi        magnuse: how feasible is it to convert marc2rdf on the fly
09:17 rangi        ?
09:18 magnuse      depends on what you mean by fly, of course, but it shouldn't be a big problem
09:18 rangi        like if i made an opac-rdf.pl page, gave it a marcxml blob
09:18 rangi        could it convert it fast enough to render in reasonable time for a user?
09:18 magnuse      yeah, i don't think that should be a problem
09:18 rangi        (actually id probably do it with a tt plugin)
09:19 rangi        [% marcxml | marc2rdf %]
09:19 rangi        that would be pretty sweet
09:19 magnuse      yup!
09:19 rangi        cool
09:20 magnuse      the big question is how you do the transformation
09:20 rangi        http://www.getty.edu/research/tools/vocabularies/lod/
09:20 rangi        basically i want to be able to make use of this when its ready
09:20 rangi        magnuse: yeah
09:21 magnuse      another question is how useful it is to have "save as rdf" option...
09:21 magnuse      s/have/have a/
09:22 rangi        i think that would be useful
09:22 rangi        but more useful, would be able to do
09:22 rangi        /svc/rdf/biblionumber
09:22 rangi        ie, a nice restful api to hand out any given biblio as rdf
09:23 magnuse      what are you going to do with the rdf?
09:23 rangi        havent got that far yet
09:23 magnuse      hehe :-)
09:23 rangi        but if we allow for anyone to be able to get rdf out of a koha library
09:23 magnuse      my preferred workflow is described here: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Linked_Data_RFC#First_steps
09:23 rangi        then smart people can ingest it and use it
09:24 magnuse      that is true!
09:24 magnuse      it's based on a lot of effort put into this at the Oslo Public Library
09:24 rangi        *nod*
09:24 magnuse      and especially this tool: https://github.com/digibib/marc2rdf
09:25 magnuse      (which is written in ruby and which i am having some trouble getting to run at the moment...)
09:25 rangi        yep im thinking i might have to port it to perl
09:25 drojf        yay
09:25 magnuse      that would be awesome!
09:25 rangi        http://www.oeg-upm.net/index.php/en/technologies/228-marimba
09:26 rangi        there's also this
09:26 * magnuse    would be glad to help
09:26 rangi        but thats java
09:26 * magnuse    shivers
09:27 magnuse      ooh, hadn't seen marimba
09:27 rangi        marc2rdf uses some perl already
09:27 rangi        and marc::record
09:27 wahanui      i think marc::record is http://search.cpan.org/~gmcharlt/MARC-Record-2.0.3/lib/MARC/Record.pm
09:27 rangi        and ill skip all the web frontend stuffs
09:27 magnuse      yeah, for some data cleaning
09:28 magnuse      yeah, that makes sense, i think
09:28 magnuse      the central part of the transformation process should not be too hard to port
09:28 magnuse      it's based on a config file, so it's just a matter of walking through the config and the record and doing the right steps
09:29 rangi        thats what im hoping
09:29 rangi        https://github.com/digibib/marc2rdf/blob/master/marc2rdf.rb
09:29 rangi        seems to be the main control
09:29 rangi        and rdfmodeler.rb
09:30 rangi        the main library
09:30 rangi        theres gotta be a bunch of rdf modules for perl
09:31 rangi        http://www.perlrdf.org/
09:31 magnuse      there are
09:31 magnuse      i don't think that page has been updated for a while
09:31 rangi        yeah
09:32 magnuse      there seem to be sevarl things that build on RDF::Trine
09:32 rangi        so basically
09:32 magnuse      i actually looked around a bit for relevant perl modules the other day
09:33 rangi        so the spanish one
09:33 magnuse      App::perlrdf looked interesting
09:33 rangi        seems to do marc2mods2rdf
09:34 rangi        and marc2rdf does marc to yaml to rdf
09:34 magnuse      it would be super-cool if a prl implementation could use the same config files as marc2rdf for the mapping, then we could at least collaborate with them on the mapping-work
09:35 magnuse      it's been a while since i looked at the internals of marc2rdf
09:35 magnuse      i know the mapping/config is stored in yaml
09:35 rangi        yeah
09:36 magnuse      example mapping: https://github.com/digibib/marc2rdf/blob/master/config/templates/mappings.json
09:36 rangi        https://code.google.com/p/code4rda/source/browse/trunk/dataconversion/trans/lib/mods2rdf.xslt?r=19
09:36 rangi        so if you can get marc 2 mods
09:36 rangi        then you can use xslt to get it to rdf
09:37 rangi        that will be why they went that route
09:37 magnuse      ah
09:38 rangi        tbh, id prefer a yaml mapping
09:38 rangi        or json like that
09:38 rangi        xslt annoys me
09:39 rangi        cool, i have lots of ideas
09:39 rangi        now i just need time
09:39 magnuse      hehe
09:39 * magnuse    sends rangi some time
09:45 magnuse      rangi: i started an attempt at re-doing marc2rdf in perl a while back: https://github.com/MagnusEnger/marc2rdf it might be more confusing than helpful, though...
09:46 magnuse      gah, i used RDF::Redland, which seems not to have been updated since 2006
09:54 rangi        :)
09:54 rangi        its a start
09:54 rangi        its always good to read what others have done
09:55 magnuse      last week i worked on an absolutely minimal poc semantikoha
09:55 magnuse      just a way to query a triplestore and show the results in the opac
09:57 rangi        ah awesome
09:57 magnuse      https://github.com/MagnusEnger/kohawork/commits/linkeddata
09:58 magnuse      i hope to have something useful this week
09:58 magnuse      then i'll submit it as an "experimental feature" and see what heppens ;-)
09:59 rangi        sweet :)
10:01 magnuse      or next week - it's a "lunch project"
10:06 rangi        yeah
10:06 rangi        lunch projects are usually the best features
10:06 magnuse      hehe
10:06 jcamins      rangi: I think there's a MARC2RDF stylesheet from someone on Code4lib, actually.
10:07 rangi        cool jcamins id be interested to take a look
10:08 rangi        who has an android phone?
10:08 rangi        https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager <-- tried that?
10:08 drojf        later
10:09 jcamins      There's also a Perl-only script from Cambridge.
10:10 jcamins      And each record takes about 0.015 seconds with it.
10:10 jcamins      http://data.lib.cam.ac.uk/code.php
10:10 rangi        sweet i can live with that
10:10 rangi        thanks jcamins
10:15 jcamins      Actually, I should make an RDF ingester. I think Titan can actually load RDF directly, which would be very convenient.
10:15 magnuse      https://github.com/edchamberlain/COMET/tree/master/conversion looks interesting
10:17 * rangi      heads to sleep
10:19 jcamins      magnuse: do you have any screenshots of your work?
10:20 magnuse      jcamins: nope, not yet
10:21 magnuse      ad the idea is to make it very configurable, so there will be little to see out of the box
10:21 jcamins      Yeah, but I see you added a template and I can't figure out what it displays.
10:22 magnuse      it evals a template that is fetched from the triplestore
10:22 magnuse      which in turn evals any number of other templates, also from the triplestore
10:23 jcamins      So you're storing TT in the triplestore?
10:24 magnuse      yup
10:24 magnuse      not sure it's a good idea, but the goal is to hardcode as little as possible
10:27 * magnuse    needs lunch
11:01 * magnuse    found lunch and devoured it
11:02 jcamins      Yay!
11:02 jcamins      What was lunch?
11:03 magnuse      same old
11:04 magnuse      two pieces of bread
11:04 magnuse      one with pickled herring and one with cheese
11:04 magnuse      typical norwegian lunch
11:05 magnuse      (don't be fooled by the "smørgåsbord" you will get at hotels etc :-)
11:05 magnuse      the cheese was http://www.himmelspannet.no/scripts/himmelspannet.web/nwCatalog-dev.p?IdNoGrpSite=516992&IdNoPrj=9900361&IdNoCmp=1003338&selSiteLng=47&selSiteCur=NOK&initList=MIT1|517002|MIT2|517011|IdTbl||IdNoTbl|0|IdNoDoc||initListCC|bEnadjejchobvlfU - very nice, but a little too ripe
11:14 magnuse      wow, strong contender for the prize of "ugliest URL"
11:15 jcamins      Hehe. Yes it is.
11:35 drojf        hello again ;)
11:38 magnuse      moinagain drojf
11:39 drojf        heiagain magnuse :D
11:40 magnuse      :-)

12:39 drojf        not really, why?
12:40 tcohen       i just thought every1 was on vacation in europ
12:40 tcohen       e

12:41 tcohen       hmm
12:47 magnuse      and me
12:53 sophie_m     and me :-)
12:56 jcamins      If I were in Europe I'd be on vacation.
12:58 * jcamins    wishes he were in Europe.
12:59 * oleonard   too
12:59 oleonard     Boy the catalogers here are in a heckuva tizzy about RDA.
13:00 jcamins      oleonard: who can blame them? They have to learn absurd new standards to produce records that will be of less use to anyone.
13:00 oleonard     Are any of the big ILS companies modifying their systems to use RDA?
13:01 oleonard     Or is RDA just a different way of making MARC records for all intents and purposes?
13:02 jcamins      The latter.
13:03 oleonard     Is there some ideal future in which RDA records enable computerized systems to work better because the data is more computer-friendly?
13:04 druthb       only in science fiction, oleonard.
13:05 oleonard     So uh... What is the point?
13:05 jcamins      No, RDA will make things worse.
13:06 oleonard     So this oncoming RDA train is going to crash into our cataloging department and cause chaos and misery with no benefit?!
13:06 jcamins      Right.
13:06 jcamins      Well...
13:07 jcamins      I suppose the RDA committee gets to look good for coming up with a new standard?
13:07 drojf        also, money
13:08 druthb       drojf!
13:08 wahanui      i think drojf is from Germany and developing Koha on a raspberry pi!
13:08 druthb       o/
13:08 drojf        druthb! :)
13:08 oleonard     Why are my catalogers always bringing up FRBR and RDA in the same breath? Is that correct?
13:09 jcamins      Because the justification for RDA was FRBR.
13:09 drojf        that sounds like a 'but'
13:10 jcamins      Well, FRBR is a profoundly badly designed "framework" that is unlikely to actually work, and it's unclear how RDA is supposed to actually help.
13:11 * oleonard   stages a bloody coup to install jcamins as King of World Cataloging
13:12 * jcamins    is all for that.
13:13 * drojf      approves
13:13 druthb       +1
13:13 jcamins      First thing we do, let's kill all the MARC.
13:13 druthb       I'm all for it, even if jcamins and I disagree somewhat on the value of FRBR.  I see it as a teeny step in the right general direction—away from MARC.
13:15 oleonard     Maybe we should just revert to Koha 1.0 and start over?
13:15 * druthb     shudders
13:16 drojf        back to the card catalog. with cards everyone writes as they please
13:16 drojf        you got a save job if you are the only person that understands the system :)
13:17 druthb       Shelve books by color.  Or height.  Or height within color; that'd make a pretty pattern.
13:17 drojf        aaaw i like it :)
13:19 druthb       *IF* the FRBR framework could be more-or-less implemented—and that itself is a pretty shady proposition—then you *could* do some fairly interesting deep-linking of information that patrons might find useful for exploration.  But not with our current cataloging practice of "every cataloger for themself."  You'd need some kind of jumbo repository to get a whole lot of value.
13:19 druthb       And OCLC is proof of how well *that* works.  Bah.
13:20 druthb       All that RDA really does is give a checkbox on the Buzzword Bingo card, while preserving the really lame status quo.
13:21 jcamins      I disagree. Every cataloger for themself is not the problem. The problem is lack of relationship representation, and no amount of centralization is going to address the underlying issue, FRBR notwithstanding.
13:21 jcamins      Oh, BTW, the difference between groups 2 and 3 was explained to me over the weekend.
13:22 druthb       oh?
13:22 jcamins      The reason they're different is because NACO and SACO are different.
13:22 druthb       But of course.
13:22 * druthb     shakes her head.
13:23 jcamins      Which, depending on your way of looking at things, was started in 1902 or 1977.
13:24 magnuse      bottom line: MARC sucks because it's all just text (as in fiction) - no useful identifiers, no useful relationships
13:24 * druthb     waves to magnuse, and offers a cookie
13:27 * magnuse    accepts the cookie and waves back
13:27 * magnuse    figures out he has wasted half a day because of occasional trailing whitespace in 001
13:38 drojf        isn't there a song about that? "kill all the whitespace" or something
13:39 druthb       "or something."
13:39 drojf        why yes, 40KB/s is more than enough wifi bandwidth. thanks for asking, university wifi.
13:41 oleonard     What do you expect from that poor 56K modem anyway?
13:41 drojf        it's 60 now. ISDN? :D
13:42 * drojf      should have snickerses
13:44 oleonard     XSLT needs a different image to represent "Three-dimensional artifact or naturally occurring object" The "filmstrip" one doesn't quite fit :P

13:45 * druthb     switches to MARC view, out of morbid curiosity.
13:45 oleonard     I'm going through the famfamfam icons looking for something appropriate. A car? A cell phone? A football?
13:47 oleonard     Oh, maybe a Lego?
13:47 druthb       That'd work!
13:52 tomas_       does anyone know what is "returndate" used fr in the items table? (i'd understand for old_issues)
13:52 tomas_       maybe renewals¿
13:54 jcamins      I think just return date, so it should always be empty.
13:54 jcamins      But oldissues and issues need to have the same structure.
13:54 jcamins      Wait.
13:54 jcamins      You said items not issues.
13:54 jcamins      Not sure.

14:54 oleonard     If we add an icon specifically for 'Three-dimensional artifact or naturally occurring object' should that be the corresponding label? Or is there a more succinct label we could use?
14:55 jcamins      The succinct label is "realia."
14:55 jcamins      I'm not sure that's an improvement.

16:12 tcohen       do u want me to fix the shell thing?
16:13 gmcharlt     I don't think it's worth bothering with (unless we think there are non-Debian platforms that would use the control scripts that don't have bash)
16:13 tcohen       which we should start thinking of
16:13 gmcharlt     indeed
16:14 tcohen       ok, i'll check and maybe fill a new bug
16:14 gmcharlt     but I can't think of any off the top of my head that wouldn't have /bin/bash

19:27 oleonard     Just saw a bug report that had 55 votes! Why isn't it fixed yet?!!
19:32 gmcharlt     a very poor exchange rate between votes and tuits?
19:32 gmcharlt     which one, out of curiosity?
19:36 oleonard     Bug 5316
19:36 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5316 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Limit Z39.50 targets to specific users
19:37 oleonard     It's assigned to you gmcharlt, so I guess you're to blame!
19:37 * gmcharlt   dies of shame
19:38 gmcharlt     ... not
19:38 * druthb     chucks skittles at oleonard.
19:38 druthb       No cookies for you!
19:38 oleonard     Yeah, killing the RM is very bad form.
19:38 gmcharlt     I'll say!
19:38 gmcharlt     ;)
19:46 rangi        tcohen: zsh, not csh
19:49 tcohen       :-D
19:50 tcohen       hi rangi
19:52 rangi        hiya
19:52 tcohen       dolphin
19:53 tcohen       booked yesterday :-D
19:54 gmcharlt     rangi: thanks for clarifying that, my raised eyebrow needed a rest! ;)
19:56 mtompset     Greetings, #koha.
19:56 mtompset     Quick question, should there ever be a sth->finish() call made in the koha code?
19:57 oleonard     Only at the very very end of Koha.
19:58 mtompset     I was looking at a git diff origin/master on one of my branches, and noticed a whole bunch of sth->finish()'s added to C4::Classsource
19:58 tcohen       but not in a class file right?
19:58 mtompset     ClassSource, sorry.
19:59 mtompset     And the prepare's were changed to prepare_cached. What's the difference between the two?
20:00 gmcharlt     mtompset: http://search.cpan.org/~timb/DBI/DBI.pm#prepare_cached
20:01 maximep      cached were changed to prepare, iirc. I think you inversed your diff :p
20:01 maximep      and finish removed
20:01 maximep      http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=commitdiff;h=5cba6457aa00f3f3b2038f70057df300d9c6b9c3
20:04 oleonard     It'd be nice if Bugzilla had a way of saying that a bug was awaiting the comment of a specific person or persons
20:05 jenkins_koha Yippie, build fixed!
20:05 jenkins_koha Project Koha_master build #1358: FIXED in 1 hr 14 min: http://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_master/1358/
20:05 rangi        tcohen: im in dolphin too :)
20:05 oleonard     dolphin?
20:05 wahanui      dolphin is great :)
20:06 rangi        dolphin tower at the hotel for kohacon
20:06 rangi        gmcharlt: yeah i like zsh because of the shared history (and for lots of other reasons)
20:07 gmcharlt     rangi: sure; I just was ... confused at that thought that you might be using classic csh :)
20:09 mtompset     Ah, must have inversed somehow. Okay, my master does have that patch, which ends my confusion. :)
20:09 mtompset     maximep++ # thanks for the bug number
20:11 * druthb     waves to mtompset.
20:14 drojf        damn all you crossposters
20:14 rangi        gmcharlt: heh not for a long long time
20:14 druthb       cait!
20:14 cait         druthb!

20:14 cait         drojf!
20:14 druthb       drojf!  :D
20:14 drojf        cait!
20:16 tcohen       she's back!
20:16 mtompset     Greetings, druthb cait drojf rangi gmcharlt maximep oleonard tcohen etc. :)
20:16 drojf        is that greeting spam? ^^
20:16 drojf        hi mtompset :P
20:17 tcohen       maybe a SEO trick?
20:17 drojf        lol
20:17 mtompset     drojf: Are you trying to incite a riot against me being polite and acknowledging those who I know are here? :P
20:19 drojf        that's what an automatic reply would say :P
20:19 mtompset     Would an SEO trick require putting everything in caps, and lower, and mixed, and repeating it in hex, ascii, unicode, and a few other ways? ;)
20:19 mtompset     No, because an automatic reply wouldn't be as delayed as I was.
20:20 drojf        that's what an delayed automatic reply would say, trying to be clever
20:20 mtompset     And an automatic reply would also programme for arguing with %s? ;)
20:20 drojf        lol
20:21 cait         drojf++
20:21 * tcohen     is amazed watching Koha's history through gource

20:24 drojf        better take a day off :)
20:25 drojf        the hamburg dungeon… is like the london dungeon with more hitler? (or less, maybe)
20:26 cait         it's a horror thing wiht actors
20:27 cait         a little free fall
20:27 cait         a bit of water fun
20:27 cait         takes 100 minutes - was quite good
20:27 drojf        oh, then it's very different
20:27 drojf        i only remember the london thing because i found pictures of that a while ago. don't actually remember being in there :D
20:28 cait         i would be worreid about that
20:28 cait         but i have been in hamburg for work before... and i recognized nothing so...
