00:01 Pabloab     Sorry, I mean $record = $batch->first(), or start()
00:01 rangi       right
00:01 rangi       this is outside of Koha right, just using MARC::Batch
00:02 Pabloab     Exactly, but to import into Koha next!
00:09 rangi       you'd probably have to implement that method yourself then
00:11 rangi       it uses MARC::File::USMARC
00:11 rangi       in the back
00:12 rangi       which uses MARC::File
00:13 rangi       so you'd have to write a start method if you wanted to use it
00:14 Pabloab     Yes. I'm trying to find a workaround to avoid doing that
00:16 rangi       unfortunately I don't think there is one
00:17 rangi       $fh = eval { local *FH; open( FH, '<', $arg ) or die; *FH{IO}; };
00:17 rangi       its just a plain old filehandle under the hood
00:19 rangi       in theory
00:19 rangi       you could use seek
00:19 rangi       seek $fh, 0, 0;
00:22 rangi       so in theory
00:23 rangi       seek $batch->{file}->{fh}, 0, 0;
00:23 rangi       you could try that in your script see if it works
00:23 rangi       btw how is buenos aires today ? :)
00:28 Pabloab     Not so humid and hot as some days ago :)
00:29 Pabloab     Can't use an undefined value as a symbol reference at ... I'm looking for a concatenation issue
00:30 eythian     Pabloab: why do you need to not open it again?
00:33 Pabloab     foreach record on a $batch1 I need to roll over $batch2, $batch3... I suspect if I open files from batch2, 3, n on every batch1 loop I will add a lot of overhead... Im I wrong?
00:34 eythian     well, your tradeoff is necessarily memory or processing.
00:34 Pabloab     (yes, I notice my English is awful.. certainly always too late :/)
00:34 eythian     You can either store everything on the first pass, or you can re-scan the files.
00:35 eythian     If everything can stay in memory, then put them there, if not, you're stuck with reopening.
00:37 Pabloab     I was trying to rescan the files but without reopening, just something like seek $fh, 0, 0 as rangi told. Maybe I have no choice.
00:38 eythian     you can do that, but I expect it'll make little difference.
00:38 eythian     you've probably spent more time trying to work out the fastest way than it would take between the best and worst ways :)
00:39 rangi       :)
00:40 dcook       hehe
00:41 eythian     wahanui: optimisation is <reply>Rule 1: don't optimise. Rule 2: (for experts only) don't optimise yet.
00:41 wahanui     OK, eythian.
00:41 dcook       I was just going to look if that quote was already there :p
00:41 * dcook     is guilty of trying to over-optimise things from time to time :/
00:43 rangi       http://www.infoworld.com/article/2860082/open-source-software/googles-odf-gift-surprise.html
00:44 dcook       Ooo
00:45 Pabloab     http://xkcd.com/1445/  Probably :P Okey, I'll do the nasty way, now that you say so I feel better :)
00:45 rangi       :)
00:47 dcook       hehe
00:47 dcook       efficiency?
00:47 wahanui     efficiency is really important for anything circ related
00:47 dcook       efficiency is also http://xkcd.com/1445/
00:47 wahanui     okay, dcook.
01:04 Pabloab     Thanks a lot rangi, eythian!
01:04 rangi       no worries
01:05 Pabloab     1.1 seconds/record ... I'll try next with a ramdisk
01:08 eythian     it's probalby the parsing of the MARC that's the expensive bit, timewise.
01:17 rangi       that sounds plausibl
01:17 rangi       e
01:21 rangi       i call this
01:21 rangi       working with marc records

01:27 dcook       Hmm, that was creepy.
01:27 dcook       I make a FB post about measuring twice and cutting once, and now Youtube is showing my carpentry ads.
01:28 dcook       Poor mascot :(
01:44 jcamins     Huh. This is weird.
01:45 jcamins     NYTProf results: GetSubscriptionFrequency is getting called 20k times when viewing a serial.
01:59 jcamins     Does anyone around have a 3.16+ server with a subscription that works?
02:01 * dcook     doesn't have any 3.16+ servers atm
02:02 * jcamins   is regretting having a 3.16.x server.
02:08 dcook       3.16.x certainly seems to be having issues :(
02:09 jcamins     dcook: unfortunately, it was nothing sufficiently obvious for me to spot it when I was testing.
02:10 jcamins     However, I figured it out.
02:40 dcook       hidden?
02:40 wahanui     hidden is http://paste.koha-community.org/295
02:40 dcook       Dang... thought that might happen
02:40 dcook       forget hidden

02:45 dcook       There. That should beat going into 3.8 every time I need to figure out what an integer means..
03:08 wizzyrea    So. Who has simple patches that I can pass on to a blossoming kohacker?
03:08 wizzyrea    or simple bugs.
03:16 dcook       Ooo
03:16 * dcook     should take a look
03:17 dcook       one is a bit annoying to test unless a person is willing to do a non-git install too
03:17 dcook       bug 13469 - simple patch but a bit of work to test

06:30 ashimema_   morning #koha
06:30 cait        morning ashimema :)
06:30 ashimema_   silly question.. anyone know if 3.18.01 is on track.. i've not seen any news on it yet.
07:09 mtj         ashimema_:  http://koha-community.org/koha-3-18-01-security-release/
07:10 mtj         ..was released on dec 10th
07:11 ashimema_   indeed..
07:11 ashimema_   I meant 3.18.02 in that case.
07:12 ashimema_   (in my mind the current 3.18.01 should probably have been 3.18.00.001)
07:12 ashimema_   being a rushed in security release... or at least that's what I thought was meant to happen ;)
07:20 mtj         ah right... afaik, a dec 22nd release is happening for all branches
07:22 ashimema_   that's the one I was talking about :)
07:22 ashimema_   I have a fair few bugs in my queue that I'de like to see in that release and am wondering how to help move them forward..
07:22 ashimema_   anywho.. breakfast time for me
07:41 reiveune    hello
07:46 alex_a      bonjour
07:47 drojf       good morning #koha
07:54 ashimema_   can anyone direct me at joubu bugzilla patch analysing tool?
07:54 ashimema_   I can't remember the URL and can't find a link to it anywhere.
08:01 Joubu       ashimema: http://splitter.koha-community.org/ ?
08:02 Joubu       and hello :)
08:11 drojf       oh there is a meeting today?

08:27 gaetan_B    hello
08:27 wahanui     what's up, gaetan_B
08:34 sachin      need help in autobarcode generation
08:34 sachin      we are not able to generate auto barcode when uploding via marc file
08:35 cait        sachin: it's probably nto implemented to do that
08:36 sachin      means
08:37 cait        that it's not possible
08:38 sachin      so how will i be able to upload so many books without barcode
08:38 cait        i think you would have to set the barcode pre-upload
08:38 cait        or import them with an empty barcode and then try to update via sql/reindex or manually.
08:39 sachin      sql/reindex ? could u guide
08:39 sachin      as manually it would be tough
08:43 drojf       @wunder berlin, germany

08:47 sachin      thats fine @cait
09:02 thd         Is there a meeting now or should I be asleep?
09:07 thd         Is this the wrong hour at the wrong time of year for people to be on #koha for a meeting?
09:14 cait        sorry yes
09:14 cait        we have a meeting
09:14 cait        should we start now belated?
09:15 cait        someone here?
09:15 ashimema    hello
09:15 cait        meeting now?
09:16 ashimema    I'll be multi-tasking as I have two meetings at once going on here..
09:16 * cait      jumps up and down and waves her arms
09:16 ashimema    but I'm about and will be watching adn commenting when my brain allows it.
09:16 ashimema    anyone else about.?
09:16 cait        ok, so let's try this

09:22 cait        any release maintainers awake and around?
09:23 cait        from the info i have the releases are still scheduled to happen on 22nd
09:23 ashimema    we can only hope ;)
09:24 cait        and we had an unscheduled security release
09:24 cait        release_maintainers++
09:24 cait        #topic Discussion: Road Map for Koha
09:25 ashimema    I like the idea of a Roadmap..
09:25 cait        I think the goal was to discuss more about the contents this time
09:25 cait        or the review bit for 3.18?
09:25 ashimema    also happy to be not time baed.. just a sort of project directional aid
09:25 cait        yeah i think general goals are good to write up
09:26 cait        and update the status of them regularly
09:26 cait        will people around now be able to make it to the second meeting tonight?
09:26 drojf       i will probably
09:26 cait        tonight/today
09:26 thd         A roadmap of arbitrary depth and detail could be maintained easily in the wiki.
09:27 thd         Maintaining a summary on the website would be a greater task and would necessarily be out of date.
09:27 cait        yeah, I think the wiki will be a good place
09:27 ashimema    hoepfully will be around
09:28 ashimema    wiki++
09:28 cait        as we are not so many people... maybe we can postpone deeper discussion to the second part today?
09:28 thd         I think it would be better to point a roadmap page on the website to some suitable set of linked pages in the wiki.
09:28 ashimema    agreed
09:28 cait        #idea use the wiki, point from the website to the wiki - easier to keep updated
09:28 thd         However, if anyone wants to maintain a summary on website, great.
09:29 ashimema    wiki's can export to html given the right tools..
09:29 ashimema    I'de maintain in the wikie and pull data from it on the website if it were me
09:29 cait        #idea pull the data for the website out of the wiki
09:30 cait        anything else?
09:30 thd         ashimena: Certainly, however, the useful content for a summary from the wiki is liable to be multiple linked pages which may be different from the preferred presentation of a summary on the website.
09:31 ashimema    yup.. hence there would need to be a small amount of manipulation website side..
09:31 ashimema    I've done things like that before..
09:31 cait        i think maybe a link to the wiki is all we need
09:31 ashimema    grabbing links and trasnforming them into title for instance.
09:32 ashimema    but a link is deffo suffice for the start
09:33 cait        #idea use a link and leave content on the wiki
09:33 cait        are we ok?
09:34 cait        I will switch to the next topic
09:34 cait        #topic Election: wiki curator
09:34 cait        #link http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Proposal_for_Wiki_Curator_3.20_Thomas_Dukleth
09:34 thd         A summary even from linked wiki pages might be created from a script but the effort is probably better applied to creating and maintaing useful content in the wiki.
09:34 cait        agreed
09:34 ashimema    ++
09:35 ashimema    I've expressed my thoughts on the curator proposal discussion page.
09:35 thd         I posted a list of candidates for holding the position collectively for the previous meeting.
09:35 cait        thd: do you have a link or can repost?
09:35 ashimema    I'de rather a more open procedure for chsooing extensions etc..
09:35 thd         checking
09:35 ashimema    http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Talk:Proposal_for_Wiki_Curator_3.20_Thomas_Dukleth
09:36 cait        I tend to agree, I am worried about missing security updates etc. it seems we already fell behind quite a bit
09:36 ashimema    we are at .16.. mediawiki was at .22 last I looked
09:36 cait        maybe it's worth taking the chance to simplify our setup a bit
09:36 ashimema    .24 in fact
09:37 ashimema    I also tend to feel we're over complicating the wiki.. I've been wanting to nuke half the extensions for a long time now
09:37 thd         We have very good backups in version control.
09:37 cait        #info a discussion has been started on the wiki - http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Talk:Proposal_for_Wiki_Curator_3.20_Thomas_Dukleth
09:37 thd         Do we actually have many extensions?
09:38 thd         I suspect that most people want more extensions.
09:38 cait        I think while some of them are generally useful, we might not make use of them
09:38 thd         The problem with updating is that it breaks things unless planned carefully.
09:38 ashimema    we have like 6 category based extentions..
09:39 ashimema    that make adding/editing the wiki plain hard.
09:39 ashimema    We're using postgres, which isn't well supported by mediaiwiki or it's extensions either..
09:39 thd         ashimena: Some work together with dependencies.
09:39 ashimema    which is one of the issues preventing easy upgrades
09:40 ashimema    personally.. I would remove all the category extensions..
09:40 ashimema    and then choose a elected set to use
09:40 thd         Upgrades are not prevented.  Upgrades require planning and testing.
09:40 ashimema    removing the ability to add categories in the markup is a step backwards
09:41 ashimema    they are prevented.. as they're in the hands of one or two people with no time..
09:41 thd         We did that once without planning and testing and then I had to spend some days fixing things.
09:41 ashimema    hense planning and testing is prevented..
09:41 ashimema    I would prefer this convesation took place with more parties..
09:41 cait        I think that's where being closer to a standard version could help us - making updates easier
09:42 ashimema    I'm not against you here thd.. but I think we have very differeing opinions which could do with someexternal thoughts going forward
09:42 thd         The implementation is under git  version control for which anyone can obtain a copy.
09:42 cait        I am helping to maintain our dokuwiki here - and moving away from our customizations have helped a lot to increace maintainability
09:42 thd         Thus, anyone could test.
09:42 ashimema    that's not public knolledge as far asI'm aware
09:43 drojf       not being familiar with the technical aspects of our wiki, what customisations are we talking about?
09:43 thd         gmcharlt, might need to facilitate some access as it is hosted at Equinox.
09:43 cait        #link http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Website_Administration#wiki.koha-community.org
09:43 cait        we culd put the information there
09:44 thd         We had previously used DokuWiki.
09:44 cait        #idea add information about installed plugins, changes to standard wiki to the wiki
09:45 thd         The problems that had is with no authority control over suggesting categories most content had no categories and could not be found systematically.
09:45 cait        thd: i know - just using it as an example. We encourage people to not change koha in ways that hinder update, but we seem to do just that with our wiki
09:45 thd         The "cumbersome" category extensions make content findable in a systematic manner.
09:47 thd         Yes, a burden is added to the user when creating a new page.  However, every later user of the page benefits from the initial effort.
09:47 ashimema    ack.. my other call is getting busy..
09:47 ashimema    dropping out again for a bit.
09:47 ashimema    sorry
09:47 cait        I think there are some valid concerns here - maybe we should gather some more info and try to rethink this together?
09:48 thd         Mostly, maintenance has been neglected.
09:48 thd         That is significantly my fault but I know how to remedy the situation.
09:49 cait        I think the idea we propose is mostly making this more easy in the future
09:49 cait        time is the single resource we never have enough of
09:49 cait        more important than funding or anything else I think
09:50 thd         The wiki should have content linked from the front page explaining good use and its advantages as I did for the former wiki before we lost that to PTFS/LibLime trouble.
09:50 thd         s/did/had created/
09:50 cait        I think we should not create too many rules/barriers
09:50 thd         They were never rules.
09:52 thd         The only rule that might be enforced is assigning at least one category to a newly created page to keep it from becoming lost.
09:52 cait        i hop this didn't come across too negative - I appreciate that you want to take this on and hope we can have some discussion on how without being discourating
09:52 thd         I had taken it on in the past.
09:52 thd         Most of my work on the former wiki is sadly lost.
09:53 thd         I also pushed for MediaWiki over DokuWiki.
09:54 thd         The choice of wiki software was meant to be a contest.  However, LibLime took down the earlier DokuWiki wiki which had held most all of the content at the time.
09:54 drojf       do we have usage statistics for the wiki? like, how people actually use it? maybe it's just me, but i hardly ever use anything but the search function
09:55 thd         s/LibLime/PTFS\/LibLime/
09:55 cait        that's all right
09:55 cait        I didn't mean to question the mediawiki choice at all
09:56 thd         drojf: Google has brainwashed you into thinking that libraries and curation are unnecessary when you have full text indexing :)
09:56 cait        i personally prefer dokuwiki as we are using that here - but that doesn't mean i would want to propose a change .)
09:56 drojf       thd: i don't want to imply it is not needed! not at all. i just wonder if there are statistics. i have no idea what other people do :)
09:57 thd         MediaWiki is a larger and necessarily more complex project as it has to support whatever people want for Wikipedia.
09:57 cait        I can only speak for myself, but i use the search feature too :)
09:57 drojf       i don't think i am the regular wiki user. also i have bookmarked most of the stuff i use often ;)
09:58 cait        thd: i think we are using mediawiki for the koha project - noone questions that
09:58 thd         Categories allow finding RFCs for what people are working on, etc. in a systematic manner.
09:59 cait        i think the problem here is maintenance, as those don't get updated, so the categories are not correct
09:59 cait        and some rfcs are not marked, although they won't be implemented or have never implemented in the way written up on the wiki
09:59 thd         cait: There was meant to be a question and a vote but the issue became somewhat moot when PTFS/LibLime took down the DokuWiki implementation.
09:59 cait        but that's content we need to fix and maintain
09:59 drojf       personally i am more concerned with outdated contents than categorisation at the moment
10:00 drojf       i can't pass a link to a library that wants to switch to dom, because the information on the wiki is not accurate
10:00 thd         drojf: We should tag the content as outdated but then encourage people to update it.
10:02 thd         Some Wikipedia editors have a habbit of deleting pages which I think is a bad idea for a library software.  We should preserve it but mark it.
10:02 drojf       is that possible at the moment? (tagging it outdated)
10:02 cait        i think a 'how to' with hints on how to use the features might be good
10:02 cait        like a note on how to add something to mark it 'outdated' most effectively
10:02 cait        and in a searchable way
10:03 thd         I had created a good tutorial for DokuWiki and was taken aback when it all went down.
10:04 thd         At the time, it was a tit-for-tat response over starting an independent bugzilla instance.
10:04 cait        I'd like to give the second part of the meeting the chance to contribute to this before we vote
10:05 thd         Certainly.
10:05 wahanui     certainly is confusing.. thanks for bringing ashimema's attention to it.
10:05 thd         I will not be around for the second part.
10:05 cait        hm ok
10:05 cait        maybe the wiki?
10:06 thd         We should at least consider in this part whether the more the merrier bug wrangler concept applies.
10:06 thd         I favour that concept which has certainly contributed to and not lessoned the level of maintenance.
10:07 cait        so the question is if we will have more than one wiki curator for the content?
10:07 cait        or is this also about the technical side/server access?
10:07 paxed       li#patronbasics img[src$="blank.png"] { display: none !important; }
10:07 paxed       ^ hide the patron image if there is no image set
10:07 thd         There have defacto been multiple wiki maintainers working simultaneously.
10:08 drojf       i don't think it is possible for one person to maintain the whole wiki (speaking of accuracy contents) in their spare time
10:08 thd         There is a list in the candidates page but others should be free to join.
10:08 cait        I think i'd leave the role open to everyone who wants to contribute
10:08 thd         +1
10:08 drojf       (contents accuracy)
10:09 cait        and we also have people with different areas of expertise
10:09 cait        (if that works as an english word :) )
10:09 thd         Maintenance has a very broad scope.
10:10 thd         I had concentrated on the backend and trying to avoid orphan pages.
10:10 cait        I am not sure how to proceed - i think what i see is a general agreement that curating is a multi-people thing?
10:11 drojf       i'd agree to that
10:11 cait        can i get a quick indication if that is right?
10:11 cait        +1
10:11 drojf       +1
10:11 thd         +1
10:11 Joubu       +1
10:11 cait        #agreed Curating the wiki content should be a multi-people approach
10:11 cait        hope that will make sense to the meeting later
10:11 ashimema    right..
10:11 ashimema    I'm back..
10:12 ashimema    reading up
10:12 cait        as we run out of time a bit, I'd like to move on more quickly now
10:12 cait        #topic Communication manager
10:12 cait        to my information noone has stepped up yet willing to fill the role
10:13 thd         I am not certain that the scope of communications manager has been well defined.
10:13 cait        yes, that might be the problem
10:13 thd         However, no one has stepped forward for any definition.
10:14 cait        I think maybe this would be better to bring up to the mailing list agan
10:14 drojf       +1
10:14 drojf       for the mailing list
10:14 thd         +1
10:15 cait        #agreed bring up the communication manager role on the mailing list again
10:16 cait        #topic KohaCon15
10:16 jransom     hi all. (jo ransom, hlt - nz)
10:16 cait        hi jo :)
10:16 cait        quite late for you!
10:16 cait        you can add #info in front, then it will show up in the meeting minutes
10:17 cait        I think today there is noone fromt he organisers around -maybe it's a bad time
10:17 cait        i will move on
10:17 cait        #topic Actions from the last meeting
10:17 jransom     #info jransom
10:17 ashimema    I'll add more thoughts on the wiki propositions to the discussion page rather than pollute further here
10:18 cait        hm i think we have an old link on the wiki, one sec
10:18 cait        the correct link to the last meeting:
10:18 cait        #link http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/General_IRC_meeting_19_November_2014
10:18 ashimema    I did allot fo the work on https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Main_Page back in the day.. and that wiki is now happily self sustaining... I also install, maintian and train mediaiwki for a series of customers..
10:19 ashimema    just so thd has some of my own background
10:19 cait        #info the community website has been updated with information about kohacon15
10:19 cait        #link http://koha-community.org/kohacon/kohacon15/
10:20 cait        @later tell wizzyrea can you update http://koha-community.org/kohacon/ please to list Nigeria as upcoming? thx!
10:20 huginn      cait: The operation succeeded.
10:20 cait        and i think BobB emailed the list about the roles, but as said earlier we need to bring that up again
10:21 cait        anything else?
10:21 cait        #topic Set date and time for next meeting
10:22 cait        I thik maybe we shoudl leave that to the second part
10:22 cait        as we have only very small attendance today
10:22 drojf       i'd vote for only one date
10:22 cait        that ok?
10:22 drojf       this split does not really seem to work well
10:22 cait        #idea go back to 1 meeting instead of 2
10:22 jransom     has the koha fundraising idea been discussed at all?
10:22 drojf       jransom: nope
10:22 cait        jransom: it hasn't been on the agenda - not sure about the state
10:23 thd         Presumably the second part would be more interested in a later time.
10:23 drojf       nobody showed up
10:23 cait        drojf: jo did :)
10:23 drojf       ah
10:23 drojf       sorry :))
10:23 cait        but i think maybe the time is bad for california/bag?
10:23 thd         I am in California at the moment.
10:24 thd         However, it is not a great time for California.
10:24 cait        jransom: i think probably the second meeting - but it would have been good to add to the agenda - guess we forgot
10:24 drojf       about splitting the meeting, i think we get more out of one meeting followed by mailing list discussions if necessary than with two seperate parts of one meeting
10:24 cait        I have a feeling too that the experiment has not been successful
10:24 cait        there is always one meeting with only very few attendees
10:24 jransom     the fundraising idea is being discussed via email.
10:25 thd         Nor is it a great time presently for the US in general.
10:25 cait        #info leaving setting date and time to second part of the meeting

10:25 drojf       for me it is now like "join the first meeting, agree on nothing because wait for the second meeting, join that too"
10:26 drojf       or, don't. but the first meeting seems to be less important
10:26 cait        I will be around second part most likely - i will try to bring it up
10:26 thd         drojf: I had thought that each meeting would take decisions but that there has never been a significantly conflicting decision to cause a problem.
10:27 drojf       thd: sure, but if disussion is involved, it does not really work well. i don't see a problem if we just want to vote things that have been discussed
10:28 thd         The problem with rotating the clock is that about one third of the meetings would have almost no attendance because the favoured time zones one third of the time did not have people who were inclined to participate.
10:28 drojf       i would like to rethink the 3 zones
10:28 thd         drojf: Agreed, a split discussion is a weeker discussion.
10:29 thd         s/weeker/weaker/
10:29 jransom     its impossible to please  everyone; its the way it goes in a global project I guess
10:30 drojf       we had only 2 options for the meetings now. based on something, i suppose. so maybe 2 times that are switched from meeting to meeting would work better
10:30 jransom     at least moving it round shares the pain
10:30 drojf       that was badly worded
10:30 drojf       i mean, maybe we need only 2 zones because the third one is hardly used
10:31 thd         drojf: Do you have any thoughts on alternating signle meeting times which avoid almost no attendance for choosing a poor time for anyone currently interested?
10:33 drojf       maybe we could get some kind of time frame at least for regulars to see what would be options that are actually frequented. but that does of course not help with new people being interested
10:33 drojf       (that may come from a different time zone/have a different time frame availabe)
10:35 drojf       at least for europe i can say that this right now is a very good time during business hours. but it is only a good time if you want to join during business hours. which apparently most of france, norway, the netherlands did not want for some reason today :) for me the second meeting at 10pm is also an option, that may not be an option for others because its way after work. time zone alone does not say everything
10:35 thd         drojf: The trouble is that the new people would never appear at times such as 02.00 UTC which were too early for Europe and Africa and too late for most of the Americas.
10:36 thd         drojf: Encouraging attendance from every time zone could be a fine taks for the Koha communications manager.
10:36 drojf       but did we have a lot of regulars at 2utc?
10:37 drojf       or, did we have any that could not join at the other times?
10:37 drojf       i mean, there would always be the option of joining irc at any time you like and bring it up if it is a problem, but that is probably not something a new person would do.
10:38 thd         drojf: 02.00 UTC was mostly unattended when people in California and British Columbia were uninterested in attending which was most of the time.
10:39 thd         drojf: The continuity of meetings thus became disjoint as nothing could really happen at one out of three meetings.
10:39 drojf       so that would be a good time to drop and keep the other two times alternating between meetings, i suppose
10:40 thd         drojf: gmcharlt had introduced two meeting times in a day as an alternative.
10:40 drojf       but do you think it works well?
10:41 thd         drojf: Yes, I think that we should exclude unpopular times for regulars because missing the unpopular times seemed to lead to a general disinterest in the meetings.
10:42 thd         drojf: Two times does not work as well as one time which everyone would attend.
10:43 drojf       alright, then we agree :)
10:43 thd         drojf: However, we have not been able to find one time which everyone would attend unless the issue on the agenda was of especially great importance to enough people.
10:44 drojf       then we need more important issues :P
10:44 thd         drojf: We certainly need important issues to sustain development meetings.
10:45 thd         drojf: We should not want to create controversy in other meeting by scaring people into attending for some artificially created important reason.
10:46 jransom     ok folks; nearly midnight here. im off to bed.
10:46 drojf       bye jransom
10:46 cait        bye jransom
10:46 drojf       thd: i will bring up the issue at the second part of the meeting if i am around
10:46 thd         drojf: Good night jransom 1.47 am here
10:46 cait        drojf: could you test Joubu's patch for the item bug maybe? :)
10:47 thd         drojf: Sadly, I am liable to be otherwise engaged at the time.
10:47 thd         I have tried to attend all the meetings in all the time zones.
10:47 drojf       cait: not now, leaving to get some things done. but i can tonight
10:48 drojf       cait: (if you remind me:)
10:49 cait        hmpf :)
10:49 thd         s/1.47 am here/2.47 am here/
10:50 * thd       runs off to finish some work while he is still awake.
10:50 drojf       gotta run. see you #koha

12:56 tcohen      morning...
12:56 cait        hi tcohen
12:56 cait        :)
12:57 tcohen      hi cait
13:04 eth0_       Hi all, i can succesfully auth and open connection with yaz-client, i can find keyword too but when i'm make a "show 1" i have a     [238] Record not available in requested syntax -- v2 addinfo ''
13:04 eth0_       Any ideas ?
13:04 wahanui     Any ideas are welcome :)
13:08 cait        i think maybe you need to tell yaz your expected return format
13:08 cait        there might be some notes on the wiki about yaz... not sure
13:10 eth0_       I've 2 zebrasrv (marc21 & unimarc) i've this problem only with unimarc
13:32 eth0_       cait: do you mean "format umarc/unimarc"
13:33 eth0_       I've already tried that
13:33 eth0_       i've also tried multiples init/update/commit
13:33 cait        not sure then, sorry
13:33 eth0_       And i've only this error with unimarc
13:33 cait        i've only used yaz once i think - i don't really remember :(
13:33 cait        ah
13:34 eth0_       Seriously… z3950/iso2907/marc21/unimarc is totally bullshit
13:35 eth0_       OPDS is a lil' bit greeter :)
13:35 eth0_       I really don't know why people still using that
13:35 eth0_       Anyway…
13:40 jcamins     eth0_: a sense of history.
13:40 jcamins     eth0_: you need to do: form xml
13:40 jcamins     el [something]
13:41 eth0_       Could you be a little bit more verbose please ?
13:41 eth0_       Oh! it works
13:42 eth0_       jcamins: Thanks :), How can i save this tips in config
13:48 jcamins     eth0_: what do you mean?
13:48 eth0_       Is this settings saved if i restart the daemon ?
13:48 jcamins     Ah. No.
13:48 jcamins     That's a client-side setting.
13:49 jcamins     There might be a way to change the defaults for yaz using a configuration file, but I've never tried.
13:49 eth0_       ok so client needs to autenticate then open the connection then form xml in order to have a reply
13:50 jcamins     Yeah.
13:50 eth0_       Hum… ok, i'll be always suprised with z3950
13:51 jcamins     And never pleasantly.
13:52 eth0_       z3950 = Hell for sysadmin
13:53 eth0_       Not a bug it's a feature
14:09 cait        wb tcohen
14:16 ashimema    tcohen.. your alive..

20:21 cait        just suggesting it because it happened ot me before
20:21 rangi       if you look at the source, can you spot where its unescaped?
20:22 rangi       oh and yeah, it will only work on en unless you reinstalled the language ;)
20:22 drojf       cait: no, i checked that
20:23 drojf       weird
20:23 drojf       cait: the item patch did not work. i did not forget to test :)

20:25 drojf       rangi: hmm the file looks ok to me. i wonder if i am doing something wrong. and what that could be :)
20:26 rangi       hmm yeah its odd, unless there is another place other than the facets where its not escaped also

21:17 rangi       i am
21:17 rangi       3.18.x is in string freeze
21:17 rangi       on course for an ontime release of 3.18.2 on the 22nd
21:17 bag         I just added a section to the wiki page for the meeting “Proposal for fund raising for Koha - to discuss/vote “
21:17 bag         (sorry that is for later)
21:17 BobB        ok bag, will come to that
21:18 rohdechris  #info Chris Rohde, Roseville, CA USA
21:18 BobB        I haven't read the minutes of today's first meeting ...
21:18 BobB        there may be info there about the releases
21:18 drojf       nope
21:18 cait        none of the RMaints were around
21:18 drojf       we were about 5 people
21:18 BobB        ah ok
21:18 cait        I speculated the releases were still planned for 22nd :)
21:19 rangi       yep
21:19 rangi       mtj and fridolin have said in email they are releasing on the 22nd
21:19 BobB        so rangi 3.18.1 was a Security Release?
21:19 rangi       yep so was 3.16.5
21:19 rangi       3.18.2 wont have much different to 3.18.1
21:19 rangi       but will have updated translations
21:19 rangi       (dont get time do those for a security release)
21:20 BobB        And 3.14 is still being maintained?
21:20 rangi       yes thats fridolin
21:20 rangi       but it wasnt vulnerable
21:20 BobB        ok
21:21 BobB        #info Security releases of 3.16 and 3.18 have been made; 3.14 was not vulnerable
21:21 BobB        #info afawk, we are on track for next releases on 22 Dec
21:21 BobB        any more on Releases?
21:22 BobB        Changing topic:
21:23 BobB        #topic Road Map for Koha
21:24 BobB        Can anyone remember where we are up to on this?
21:24 cait        I think we discussed that the way it could be published mostly
21:24 cait        at the first meeting
21:24 cait        wiki or website, linking them or summarizing
21:24 cait        not much about the content so far I think
21:24 cait        drojf: ?
21:25 drojf       that is all i remember, yes
21:25 BobB        can anyone find the link to last meeting minutes (November)?
21:25 drojf       having it in the wiki, summarizing on the website
21:26 drojf       http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/General_IRC_meeting_19_November_2014
21:26 BobB        found it too, no actions, just ideas
21:27 BobB        IDEA: use the next meeting to have more discussion, past and future on the road map
21:27 BobB        so, any further thoughts since?
21:27 bag         We could throw some thoughts out now
21:28 BobB        yep
21:28 bag         Like I want to see the OPAC really take a step forward
21:28 bag         So what am I going to do
21:29 bag         Starting with integratation of more Econtent into Koha OPAC ;)  like gutenburg, overdrive, openlibrary etc etc - make it so that you can ingest all that into the search engine (and not via marc records)
21:29 bag         Also Elastic Search - lets get that in
21:29 bag         :D
21:29 TGoat       Yea, we need elastic search
21:30 bag         or do I still have to wait to throw ideas out there - until the next general meeting?
21:30 cait        is there a plan to follow up on the pazpar2 patch ot integrate z39.50 searches?
21:30 cait        sometimes you can't get the data itself, i liked the idea of that one :)
21:30 cait        or it's just too much data to include in your catalog
21:30 bag         cait for now we’ve abandon that since pazpar2 wasn’t stable with the way we did it
21:31 bag         basically pianohacker came back and said he’d like to rewrite pazpar2 (and I said we don’t have time for that
21:31 BobB        hmm, too bad
21:31 bag         but anyone anywhere can pick that up
21:32 bag         but I really feel that the OPAC needs the next jump up
21:32 BobB        ok, so for the Road Map, the next steps would be ...
21:32 bag         RDF linked data - we should all be pushing for that
21:32 bag         I think we need a spot to list ideas BobB
21:32 bag         someone create that spot and call to list ideas
21:32 BobB        to create the wiki page and start to populate it with these great ideas
21:33 bag         then have someone curate it
21:33 BobB        so brainstorm possible contents, then have some discernment about what actually goes in, bag?
21:34 bag         cait I’d like to bring that Z3950 one back up - it’s just that pianohacker currently has such limited Koha time (because of school)
21:34 bag         but maybe a little more time on it and we’d be able to do something different with it
21:34 bag         make it more stable
21:34 cait        ok
21:35 BobB        bag I think you are suggesting a level of control on Road Map content that maybe won't be there always?
21:35 bag         could be or not - but someone to organize it
21:36 BobB        If the Road Map exists, can't anyone update it for their new ideas?
21:36 bag         so that way I’m not putting the same thing up there that rangi is (just using english versus new-zealand english)
21:36 bag         everyone should be able to update it - I think someone should organize it
21:36 bag         ;)
21:36 BobB        but sure a curator would be good to get rid of dead stuff and so on
21:37 BobB        Could that be the general Wiki Curator, if we get one?
21:37 bag         yes please
21:37 BobB        ok, so why don't we create the Road Map page and get people to list stuff ....
21:38 BobB        there can then be discussions about the value or otherwise of what gets put forward
21:39 BobB        any contrary thoughts?
21:39 bag         +1
21:39 rangi       +1
21:40 cbrannon    +1
21:40 BobB        those votes are in favour of creating the page?
21:40 jmsasse     +1
21:40 cbrannon    yes
21:40 BobB        (I'll assume so unless someone speaks otherwise)
21:41 BobB        so continue voting pls
21:41 drojf       +1
21:41 rohdechris  +1
21:41 edveal      +1
21:42 TGoat       +1
21:42 BobB        all done?
21:42 BobB        #agreed In accordance with discussion at the November meeting, a wiki page for a Koha Road Map should be created
21:42 BobB        So is there a volunteer to do that?
21:43 cbrannon    who knows wiki?
21:44 BobB        I'll ask Magnus, else I can do it, ok?
21:44 bag         works for me
21:44 BobB        #action BobB to find someone to create a Road Map wiki page, else do it himself
21:44 cbrannon    thank you
21:45 BobB        blah
21:45 BobB        next topic?
21:45 wahanui     next topic is a tricky one...
21:46 BobB        #topic  Proposal for fund raising for Koha - to discuss/vote
21:46 BobB        bag?
21:46 wahanui     I LIKE BASEBALL
21:46 BobB        LOL
21:46 bag         I LOVE BASEBALL
21:46 bag         ok here is most of it
21:46 bag         http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Proposal-for-fund-raising-for-Koha-to-discuss-vote-at-December-General-Meeting-td5821688.html
21:46 BobB        what about fundraising?
21:47 bag         I’m just really looking for a — YES go for it - NO don’t do it
21:47 BobB        so is the question 'that the  meeting endorses the discussion paper'?
21:47 bag         Right now we’ve got the HLT ready to be the place that can accept donations (NPO)
21:47 bag         yes BobB that’s really the gist of it
21:48 BobB        any questions folks?
21:48 BobB        or I'll take it to a vote
21:48 rangi       my main thing is we should try to avoid people scope creeping it
21:48 bag         So YES do it - then I think me and some others (I need help).  Will really have to write a full spec/proposal
21:48 rangi       lets start small
21:48 bag         and then come back to it
21:48 cait        +1
21:49 jmsasse     +1
21:49 rangi       and just a place to accept donations .. before we start adding a pile of complexity like targeting donations etc
21:49 BobB        rangi, you don't want a Mellon applicaton next week?
21:49 rangi       if its that then im +1
21:49 bag         agreed
21:49 cbrannon    +1
21:49 rangi       BobB: not if they get to tell the community how it has to be spent :)
21:49 BobB        ok hold those votes just a mo'
21:49 rangi       so
21:49 BobB        rangi: agreed
21:50 BobB        OK, the question is:
21:50 rangi       +1 #for starting a small no strings attached donation/distribution idea
21:50 bag         I think first let’s get the structure in place (IE click here to donate)…
21:50 rangi       yep
21:50 drojf       +1 for full spec/proposal
21:51 bag         2. pursue a few koha support companies for some monies
21:51 bag         3. use money for sign-offs from a non-support company person
21:51 BobB        that is what your paper sets out bag, iirc
21:52 bag         build more structure after that - while working with the community
21:52 bag         yes BobB
21:52 bag         ;)
21:52 BobB        so we are saying one step at a time, then go for it
21:52 bag         ok I’m going to pull back for a bit and let you all talk  (I’m not voting either)
21:52 rangi       yep
21:53 rangi       +1 for the paper/spec
21:53 BobB        So I'll call for the vote: that the meeting endorses Brendan's paper on fund raising
21:53 BobB        Vote now please
21:53 rangi       +1
21:53 drojf       +1
21:53 cbrannon    +1
21:54 barton      +1
21:54 jmsasse     +1
21:54 rohdechris  +1
21:54 BobB        all done?
21:55 BobB        #agreed The meeting endorsed the paper by Brendan on Fund Raising for the Koha project
21:55 bag         sweet :D
21:55 BobB        #action bag to implement step 1 of the proposed strategy
21:55 BobB        OK?
21:55 bag         hey Jo we have some work to bring back to the community ;)  BobB you’re up too ;)
21:56 bag         heh
21:56 BobB        :)
21:56 BobB        done on that topic?
21:57 BobB        I'm going to combine the next two topics
21:57 BobB        #topic Wiki Curator and Communications Manager
21:57 BobB        right, but I'm sorry, the dog ate my homework
21:58 rangi       i think thd wrote a proposal
21:58 rangi       http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Proposal_for_Wiki_Curator_3.20_Thomas_Dukleth
21:58 rangi       but no bites for coms
21:59 drojf       there is also some kind of objection in the discussion http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Talk:Proposal_for_Wiki_Curator_3.20_Thomas_Dukleth
21:59 BobB        #link http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Proposal_for_Wiki_Curator_3.20_Thomas_Dukleth
21:59 bag         hmm no bits for coms :(  can we try for one more month?
21:59 rangi       i think would need to send a new email
22:00 drojf       (that was most of this mornings meeting)
22:00 drojf       or, like, first part of the meeting, not necessarily morning for you ^^
22:00 BobB        #link http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Talk:Proposal_for_Wiki_Curator_3.20_Thomas_Dukleth
22:00 BobB        (just getting those links into the minutes)
22:01 BobB        ok, I think from the Nov. meeting I had actions about advertising those roles,, let me check
22:02 bag         BobB: I just asked nengard_afk to do a blast to our partners
22:02 BobB        confirmed
22:02 cbrannon    yes, that is correct
22:03 BobB        well, if the role is controversial, its just as well I haven't done that
22:03 bag         hmm MRenvoize comments don’t seem that bad to me - perhaps we should give sometime for thd to comment back?  I move to not vote on this at this time
22:03 BobB        sounds right bag
22:04 BobB        I propose we defer this till next meeting, to allow the discussion to progress
22:04 bag         and perhaps some more volunteers
22:04 drojf       they (and all of us) agreed to a group approach for the wiki. that is as far as we could get
22:04 rangi       i do think it needs an upgrade and get back to stock, then figure out what extensions we need, i agree with ashimema there
22:05 drojf       as for the technical side… i think we should … yep what rangi says ^^
22:06 BobB        I am suggesting the January meeting could make that decision, then we advertise
22:06 cait        yeah agreeing with rangi
22:06 cait        i think simplifying, getting back to stock, would help us maintaining long term
22:07 BobB        ok, I am at a disadvantage here, as I've not read either submission
22:07 BobB        does someone want to propose a motion?
22:07 bag         can we vote on upgrade now?  OR do we not have anyone that could do the upgrade?
22:08 bag         I see two BobB
22:08 rangi       i dont think we have anyone who has the time to do it at the moment
22:08 drojf       as far as i understood upgrading as it is is rather complicated
22:08 bag         1 - move vote/more discussion to next meeting and Ask for more volunteers now (re advertise)
22:08 drojf       as in takes time
22:08 bag         2 - upgrade now - but who does it?
22:10 BobB        bag,clarifying motion 1: you say re-advertise, but it hasn't been advertised yet?
22:10 bag         ok take out the RE part
22:10 bag         ;)
22:10 BobB        I think Thomas is interested, but he was in the discussion in Nov
22:10 rangi       i thought there was an email
22:10 rangi       but i might be wrong
22:10 bag         I think cbrannon said there was an email
22:11 BobB        not from me, and I had carriage from the last meeting
22:11 bag         cbrannon: if you have the subject of the email we can find it in nabble
22:11 cbrannon    @bag: that was something else
22:11 huginn      cbrannon: I suck
22:11 rangi       http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.koha/36732
22:12 BobB        #link http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.koha/36732
22:12 BobB        that wasn't meant to be an advert, at the time
22:13 BobB        ok, so this does not become too long tonight:
22:14 bag         BobB: can you advertise this?
22:14 BobB        I propose an amendment to bag's first motion:
22:14 BobB        1 - move vote/more discussion to next meeting and Ask for more volunteers now: then advertise the role on the mailing list
22:15 cbrannon    +1
22:15 BobB        Pls vote (+1 or -1)
22:15 bag         +1
22:15 rohdechris  +1
22:16 rangi       +1
22:16 BobB        any more?

22:17 BobB        #agreed To move discussion of wiki curation to next meeting and to call for volunteers now
22:17 BobB        by the 'role' we're talking about a coordinator of a team of volunteers
22:18 BobB        so we're saying ask volunteers to come forward,
22:18 BobB        and we'll sort out who the coordinator will be and exactly what the role is at/after the next meeting
22:18 BobB        Done?
22:19 rangi       i think so
22:19 cbrannon    yes
22:19 BobB        Re the Comms Manager, I want to liaise with the newsletter editors to make sure they understand they are not being made redundant ...
22:20 rangi       yeah good idea
22:20 BobB        before that role is advertised, so can we kick that to January meeting also?
22:20 rangi       sounds good
22:21 BobB        #action BobB to prepare ground for decisions to be taken in January re wiki curation and Comms Manager
22:21 BobB        #topic KohaCon15
22:21 BobB        I think Olug is not here?
22:22 BobB        any updates anyone?
22:22 rangi       yep
22:22 rangi       they are working on the costings of food/lodging etc and will update us all when they know
22:22 rangi       they are already getting lots of nigerian librarians asking when can they register
22:23 rangi       so things sound on track
22:23 BobB        thanks rangi
22:23 drojf       nice
22:24 BobB        #topic Actions from Nov meeting
22:25 BobB        can someone check the minutes of meeting #1 in Nov?
22:25 BobB        there was only one action from meeting #2 and we've dealt with it
22:26 rangi       BobB will email the mailing list about the new roles
22:26 rangi       thats the only one from meeting 1
22:26 rangi       adding a note/link to the kc website about kohacon15
22:26 BobB        and we've dealt with that
22:26 rangi       is the only other one
22:27 BobB        Is that one done, re Koha Con?
22:27 rangi       i think so
22:27 rangi       http://koha-community.org/kohacon/kohacon15/
22:27 BobB        cool, thx
22:27 rangi       yes
22:27 BobB        #topic Next Meeting
22:28 drojf       it seems that splitting the meeting does not work very well
22:28 drojf       the first meeting is kind of a lesser one, with lots of "well we have to see about the second meeting", second meeting attendees don't read the minutes of the first
22:29 drojf       and strange people like myself end up having the meeting twice
22:29 rangi       yeah i think maybe going back to rotating the time might be better
22:30 drojf       +1 for rotating, maybe leaving out the 3rd "evil" time that did not attract many people
22:30 BobB        the idea was to enable more people to attend, but the benefit is maybe marginal
22:30 bag         I agree with that
22:30 drojf       i think 2utc
22:30 bag         +1 for rotating
22:30 BobB        ok hold on, let me put the question
22:31 BobB        Does the meeting agree to revert to rotating times and to have only one meeting per month?
22:31 BobB        Vote now pls
22:31 drojf       +1
22:31 rangi       +1
22:31 jmsasse     +1
22:32 tcohen      +1
22:32 BobB        any more?
22:33 BobB        #agreed There will be only one meeting per month: times will be rotated to promote best possible attendance
22:33 BobB        so is January 14th too soon for next meeting?
22:34 BobB        Jan 21 is near a release date
22:34 tcohen      14th is fine
22:34 drojf       +1 for 14th
22:34 BobB        who wants to suggest the time?
22:34 bag         +1
22:35 tcohen      +
22:35 rangi       how about 20UTC ?
22:35 rangi       actually
22:35 rangi       10UTC
22:36 BobB        Vote please on next meeting is January 14th at 10 UTC
22:36 rangi       hmm that might be too late for the americans, i dunno
22:36 * bag       checking timesw
22:36 tcohen      you mean 10 P;¡
22:36 tcohen      PM?
22:36 BobB        hold the vote please while bag checks
22:36 BobB        tcohen the proposal is 10 UTC
22:37 drojf       http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Koha+IRC+General+Meeting&iso=20150114T10
22:37 BobB        it'll be a civilised after dinner time for me
22:37 bag         yeah it’s a bit early but that’s cool I love getting up early :)  and the ginny pie can join me
22:38 tcohen      thanks drojf
22:38 tcohen      I think I can get up that early once a month
22:38 cbrannon    -1
22:38 tcohen      :-D
22:38 BobB        No objections?  Then the proposal is 14 January 2015 at 10 UTC

22:39 tcohen      where do u live cbrannon ?
22:39 bag         -1
22:39 BobB        anything else?
22:39 cbrannon    North Idaho.  That's 2am for me.
22:39 bag         but just cause I say no - doesn’t mean it’s not possible ;)
22:40 bag         heh
22:40 rohdechris  would Feb meeting be at a better PST time?
22:40 BobB        oh dear, any motion for recission of that last agreement?
22:40 rangi       rohdechris: yeah we rotate it
22:41 BobB        It is of course not possible to ahve a time convenient world wide
22:41 rangi       the next one most likely around 18UTC
22:41 rangi       in feb
22:41 cbrannon    perhaps if we all syncronized our clocks to one time?  ;)
22:41 BobB        If there is no motion for recission I will close the meeting
22:42 rohdechris  that makes feb 10 am PST--sounds fair to me
