23:58 lisette yeah, just the numbers/letters so we could have the title, barcode,and outstanding amount all together. Sometimes the simplest answer gets glossed over.
23:57 rangi cool, or you meant just the numbers/letters? not the actual barcode?
23:57 huginn lisette: I'll give you the answer just as soon as RDA is ready
23:57 lisette @rangi, thanks I think we figured out how to get the info we need by putting it into the description of charges.
23:52 rangi lisette: i dont think you can without some dev work, it;d have to be a pdf i think, or at least the barcode would have to be an image
23:51 rangi storage?
23:49 tcohen persistence: { database: mysql, name: blah, user: bleh, ... }
23:49 tcohen is 'persistence' the right name for a DB config section?
23:45 BobB hi chrisvella__
23:39 lisette Does anyone know how I could print an invoice from the patron account screen that includes the barcode of an item that is being paid for, but looks similar to the invoice that prints currently?
23:08 huginn Francesca: The current temperature in Wellington, New Zealand is 8.0°C (11:00 AM NZST on September 08, 2016). Conditions: Light Rain Showers. Humidity: 76%. Dew Point: 4.0°C. Windchill: 2.0°C. Pressure: 30.01 in 1016 hPa (Steady).
23:08 Francesca @wunder wlg
22:22 rangi yeah
22:19 tcohen rangi: in wellington??
21:51 rangi this is broken
21:51 rangi its snowing
21:44 thd I note AGPL being killed again https://github.com/folio-org/mod-metadata/commits/master/LICENSE .
21:40 thd I also understand better now that any API on which everyone could agree would never be sufficient for what people really need in a library management system.
21:39 thd However, if one company is developing the API it is never going to be a 'community' API standard.
21:38 thd The supposed initial idea of mix and match library system modules with a commonly agreed API has never caught on and its absence has been disappointing.
21:36 rangi *nod*
21:34 nuentoter true
21:34 * nuentoter corrected
21:34 wizzyrea I would bet that they *think* they know
21:33 wizzyrea I wouldn't bet that.
21:33 nuentoter i would bet they very well know how FOSS projects work and are probably taking advantage of that.
21:32 thd Is EBSCO seem to be trying to obtain something which they can control or do the not understand how successful FOSS projects are founded?
21:31 rangi i mean ill keep an eye on it, but it is pretty meh at the moment
21:30 cait ah i see
21:30 bag sort of like YAML cait
21:30 rangi yeah
21:30 rangi etc
21:30 bag yet another ils
21:30 rangi https://github.com/folio-org/mod-circulation
21:30 bag boring
21:30 cait bag?
21:30 rangi https://github.com/folio-org/mod-acquisitions-postgres
21:30 rangi there are some modules
21:29 bag YAils
21:29 cait but it looks like it has ils features
21:29 cait thd: yeah, mock up - fake still :)
21:29 thd cait: The GUI mock-up did not seem to be other than a set of screen shots to me but maybe I missed something.
21:28 cait there is a gui mock-up online
21:26 tcohen that's 100% true, as I haven't seen the code
21:26 rangi not watching what they are doing :)
21:26 rangi i think you are listening to what they are marketing
21:26 tcohen and so propietary
21:26 tcohen they want open source communities to build their own modules
21:25 rangi now its fairly clear its just an ils
21:25 tcohen that's where community comes in
21:25 rangi but that was back when it was going to be a platform
21:25 tcohen hehe
21:25 rangi the least important bits ;-)
21:25 rangi yeah
21:25 tcohen and some 'reference modules'
21:25 tcohen indexdata was supposed to implement the 'backbone' (that's what they called it)
21:24 rangi https://github.com/folio-org/okapi
21:24 rangi it will be using this Okapi thing they have built
21:24 rangi it looks to me like it will be OLE, but instead of the kuali back end stuff
21:24 rangi thats not what they told the OLE people
21:24 tcohen bye!
21:24 rangi yes thats what they said then
21:23 drojf good night o/
21:23 tcohen i've met EBSCO representatives in july, and they told it was a fresh development from indexdata
21:23 drojf but i wanted to go to bed. i'll let you decide :)
21:23 rangi http://dev.folio.org/
21:23 rangi and I would agree with drojf
21:23 rangi theres at least 4 different stories floating around
21:23 drojf i'd say they are
21:22 rangi or are they
21:22 tcohen thd, they are not related
21:20 thd cait: What do you know or suspect about the relationship between OLE code and Folio code?
21:20 wizzyrea sorry cookie talk is always allowed here
21:19 wizzyrea O.o
21:18 nuentoter jrm shush your cookie talk
21:15 mik_ Oh so there's a rub in it. As usual :-(
21:14 osjerwyn ohhhhh
21:14 jrm_ i said nothing of finances, i thought thats what we were talking about sponsors for
21:14 osjerwyn jrm: for free? hehe
21:14 mik_ I use koha a lot
21:13 jrm_ we decided everybody that uses koha gets a pack of girlscout cookies of their choice mailed to them
21:13 tcohen :-(
21:13 osjerwyn only connected with drug are dying. not by rape, rob,
21:13 schnydszch media oversensationalize and onlg drug lords are taken care of. The president is very much taking his part of eradicating drugs in the Philippines
21:13 cait tcohen: yep meeting ;)
21:12 tcohen ah!
21:12 jrm_ tcohen you came in just as the meeting ended
21:12 wahanui somebody said meeting was in two days, i thought was tomorrow. plenty of time then
21:12 tcohen meeting!
21:12 tcohen cait: my timing?
21:12 jrm_ everyone has human rights, the problem is in others abilities or willingness to respect them
21:12 osjerwyn believe us
21:12 osjerwyn thats wrong news!
21:12 BobB well, we'll see
21:11 schnydszch that's taken care of, media just hyping it up
21:11 osjerwyn BobB: Philippine is in good shape now, and best is yet to come. except for the druglords
21:11 BobB drug users have human rights, don't they?
21:11 schnydszch A
21:11 schnydszch BobB only drug users
21:11 BobB one potential kohacon attendee has already mentioned it to me
21:10 BobB we hear of extra judicial killings etc
21:10 drojf good night #koha
21:10 osjerwyn BobB: not really
21:10 drojf cait++
21:10 BobB osjerwyn, schnydszch I hope the political situation in your country does not deterioate
21:10 jrm_ hmmm i dont know why nuentoter hasnt timed out yet, i accidentally closed that browser half an hour ago or so

21:08 cait #endmeeting
21:08 cait #agreed Next meeting will be 5 October, 10 UTC
21:08 osjerwyn got it
21:08 cait osjerwyn: we usually try to shift it around
21:07 osjerwyn 21 UTC is good for me
21:07 cait no vetos
21:07 thd jrm_ Probably more attention to announcements in October and November than early September.
21:07 osjerwyn cait: thanks!
21:07 BobB https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converted.html
21:06 thd osjerwyn: It is now a little after 21 UTC. The meeting started at 20 UTC.
21:06 jrm_ kohacon 17 was opened to bids in november 15, not a stretch from now for 18
21:06 cait we started 20 utc, so should be 21 now
21:05 cait osjerwyn: try googling 10 utc (it's what i do :) )
21:05 cait hm would work for europe
21:05 osjerwyn what is the time now in UTC?
21:05 thd 5 Oct 10 UTC?
21:04 cait hm the normal date would be...5 october
21:04 cait #topic Date for next meeting
21:04 cait #info no actions from last meeting
21:03 cait #topic Actions from last meeting
21:03 cait #info Decision about opening Kohacon18 bid postponed to next meeting
21:03 cait so let's postpone
21:03 cait ok
21:02 thd Still seems early to me
21:02 thd We do not have a wiki page yet for KohaCon 18
21:02 cait shoudl we have a quick vote or postpone to another meeting?
21:02 drojf con: bid might be invalid until we vote. pro: people can start thinking about it
21:01 cait so we got no valid bid atm
21:01 cait i think Europe is still out
21:01 cait shoudl we just open it?
21:00 cait schnydszch: noted :)
21:00 BobB no, you are right, we just dealt with 17, eh
21:00 rangi yeah we could have a conference meeting :)
21:00 schnydszch Yewh we move on and we encourage the koha community with inkling of attending kohacon20q7 in the philippines to register early once the google form is up
21:00 BobB err, 17?
21:00 cait when should we open bidding officially for the next conference?
20:59 cait #topic KohaCon18
20:59 cait #info Please check logs - tons of information about Kohacon16 there.
20:59 cait thx for hte update schnydszch and osjerwyn!
20:59 drojf move on
20:59 phred Does Canonical ever sponsor conferences?
20:58 drojf maybe we skip the fundraising part for now?
20:58 cait is there anything more or should we move on? :)
20:58 rangi pass :)
20:58 rangi more proprietary?
20:58 CrispyBran Maybe TalkingTech, LibraryThing, ????
20:58 rangi :)
20:57 BobB i think i've come the circle there :)
20:57 drojf (and in general :P )
20:56 drojf for 2.5 days of conference sponsored talk slots should probably avoided
20:56 BobB I'd also be cautious about becoming dependant on anyone who sells closed source software or locks up content
20:55 osjerwyn cait got it
20:55 schnydszch jrm: we take note of that
20:54 jrm_ have any of you guys looked into twitch as a sponsor? they have a creative channel on there that includes all kinds of web and game developers, coders and script kids streaming them just coding. They could possibly be looked at for the streaming the even t
20:54 cait i thnk best is not to focus on EBSCO too much but look for sponsorhip in general - and yeah, look out for strings attached
20:52 rangi theyve done one, that's enough
20:52 rangi i would also be cautious about strings with their sponsorship, i really dont think a talk about folio is appropriate at a kohacon
20:52 cait i think it's hard to explain right now - at least for me
20:52 thd osjerwyn: Different levels of sponsorship may sometimes have different size of notices, placement order or something, or may only be distinguished by the level contributing.
20:52 drojf not really a meeting topic
20:52 phred See www.folio.org
20:51 osjerwyn I started to hear more about folio what is it?
20:51 drojf talk to them. early
20:50 drojf but ebsco has folio now. i would not just assume they are going to sponsor
20:50 osjerwyn alright thanks for the info! :)
20:50 cait and ebsco and others are listed kohappiest
20:49 cait for the last kohacon they had levels of sponsorship
20:49 cait but
20:49 schnydszch .we will try and check calling cards :)
20:49 cait hm
20:49 cait that's probably true
20:49 thd osjerwyn: You should also not necessarily presume that they have a usual amount.
20:49 BobB good idea cait
20:49 BobB i have no idea
20:49 cait i don't know, you might want to email the last organizers
20:48 osjerwyn just rough estimate
20:48 osjerwyn can some disclose to us how much EBSCO usually give for sponsorship?
20:48 cait sounds like you got things under control :)
20:47 cait cool
20:47 schnydszch we are aware of that. We are in the central business district and filipinas heritage library can provide that and another sponsor we've informally talked to
20:46 BobB ahead of us :)
20:46 osjerwyn good thing Philippines started with the Fibr
20:46 drojf or a usb stick with master ;)
20:46 osjerwyn BobB we are aware of that
20:45 BobB the main requirement for hackfest is lots of broadband, reliable broadband
20:44 osjerwyn same location
20:44 cait is hte hackfest also at the museum or at another location?
20:44 schnydszch Yes cait
20:43 cait just trying to get it right
20:43 cait osjerwyn: so 2.5 days conf, half a day museum tour, 2 days hackfest? :)
20:42 osjerwyn alright just for the record
20:42 schnydszch Third day half day museum tour
20:42 schnydszch Third day musem tour
20:41 schnydszch Jerwyn 13 is tuesday 16 is saturday
20:41 schnydszch Cait: same formats as before 3 days conf. 2 days hackfest
20:41 osjerwyn schnydszch is it June 12-16 Monday - Friday?
20:40 cait :)
20:40 schnydszch Nuentoter, that's noted. By the way tbe president of the organization we have tied up with is a staff of the US embassy. So those coming from the US and ne3ds assistance probably we can ask him
20:40 BobB how many conference days, fun day, how many hackfest days?
20:40 cait hackfest, conf, fun day? :)
20:39 cait schnydszch: is there a rough schedule?
20:39 schnydszch June 13-17
20:39 schnydszch those are are taken into account cait rangi, the group will concur. But we encourage everyone to fill up the google form once it's up. We will post it in koha mailing list.
20:39 osjerwyn schnydszch can you please confirm the date
20:38 nuentoter_ also twitch.tv
20:38 nuentoter_ ok so you guys make software thats used in libraries, why dont you cater to those markets for sponsors. with libraries popping up maker spaces across the country (usa) places like instructables.com might be a possible venue
20:38 rangi exciting :)
20:37 cait good thought rangi :)
20:37 schnydszch there's even a so-called Museum Cafe nearby
20:37 rangi by spending money in their cafes
20:37 cait then in advance
20:37 cait it might be easier if possible for people to pay food/excursion when there
20:37 rangi that way we give back to the local community a little
20:36 rangi excellent, i prefer that too
20:36 osjerwyn yes lots of cafes and restaurants
20:36 schnydszch Noted on cait and rangi. I've been to many local conferences, there's always lunch but there's registration fee. The group will concur on this.
20:36 rangi yes that is right, the cultural day between often has some costs
20:36 BobB esp if there are cafes and restaurants near the venue
20:36 osjerwyn #rangi got it
20:35 rangi what i would do, is aim for it, but if you dont get enough to cover it
20:35 cait it's also ok to ask people to pay for the day activity between conf and hackfest usually i think
20:35 rangi yeah
20:35 rangi so that is an option, if you dont get sponsorshipt for lunches ... people can get their own
20:35 osjerwyn maybe we could remove the lunch so we could cut of the budget?
20:35 rangi usually people eat at local restaurants etc
20:34 cait yep
20:34 rangi osjerwyn: normally there is only snacks
20:34 cait osjerwyn: i tihnk greece has been the first with lunch provided
20:34 CrispyBran #info
20:34 osjerwyn lunch and snacks? what do you prefer?
20:33 osjerwyn another thing with the food. what is usually the set up?
20:33 BobB and after KohaUS, I would ask Bibliotecha too
20:33 osjerwyn this would help
20:33 BobB definitely ask EBSCO
20:33 osjerwyn cait copy that
20:32 cait it's been a mix of koha support providers, library suppliers and local businesses i think
20:32 schnydszch By the way jerwyn will set up the website :) so call for sponsors and papers are taken into account
20:32 osjerwyn alright got it!
20:32 cait the kohacon websites usually list them somewhere, this is from Greece
20:32 cait http://kohacon2016.lib.auth.gr/?page_id=462
20:32 thd osjerwyn: Yes, local and international sponsors have supported past Kohacons even with no connection to Koha at least for the local ones.
20:31 cait let me find the link from last year
20:31 osjerwyn could someone give me a list it could help
20:31 cait osjerwyn: yes
20:31 osjerwyn do kohacon has international sponsors from the past? like EBSCO?
20:30 osjerwyn we are working on with the sponsors currently
20:30 rangi i agree with BobB
20:30 thd osjerwyn: Just so it should be premature to assume undefrayed expenses.
20:30 BobB seek sponsorship first
20:29 BobB in my opinion any fee should be absolutely minimised, so as not to exclude local participants in particular
20:29 osjerwyn it just so happen last month that we won the bid
20:29 cait i think it might be early for registrations - call for sponsors, call for papers... and thing smight line up financially before you ask for registrations
20:29 schnydszch As you can see we have partnered with a local organization since we are only volunteers in order to have some legal entity to ask for sponsorship
20:28 osjerwyn yes we will!
20:28 thd osjerwyn: Have efforts been taken to find sponsors even sponsors unrelated to Koha who might help defray costs.
20:28 nuentoter_ Yes, you cannot move forward in any financial respect, if you do not know what your costs will be. You do not know the costs until sponsors line up and sign something
20:27 schnydszch And yeah we are calling sponsors as of this momebt, formal letters to follow
20:27 drojf what rangi and cait say
20:27 osjerwyn we are thinking lunch and snacks what di usually prefer?
20:27 cait maybe it would be good to get a call to sponsors out early
20:27 rangi yep, normally sponsorship is sought to cover costs
20:27 drojf the proposal clearly said no fee. otherwise it may have been rejected. i have concerns about it to be honest
20:26 schnydszch The location is not free so far
20:26 cait of course
20:26 schnydszch The museum so far is actually not free
20:26 osjerwyn yes
20:26 cait do you plan on providing lunch with the conf?
20:26 schnydszch That's the plan not charging up on foreign participants hence the d3cember deadline to register.
20:25 osjerwyn actually thats for the food
20:25 nuentoter_ what would the fee be paying for?
20:24 schnydszch I'm onnmy phone, on my bed. Well ajerwyn is there
20:24 thd osjerwyn: Any idea which solves the issue of places for people from far away without needing to charge anyone a fee would be much better than a fee.
20:24 cait BobB: no, thx! :)
20:23 osjerwyn June 5-9 or June 12-16
20:23 wahanui the date is circled ;)
20:23 osjerwyn what is the date?
20:23 schnydszch Juat wike up and cannot startul laptop properly without waking up the family
20:23 BobB oops, sorry, cait
20:23 osjerwyn Eugene!
20:23 cait yep, BobB phrased it better
20:23 BobB and if unused you could release them to locals near the date
20:23 nuentoter_ cait: that sounds like a much better idea
20:23 schnydszch #info Eugene Espinoza
20:23 rangi reserved spaces is a good idea
20:22 rangi *nod*
20:22 cait and maybe have a deadline... and then fill it up with local people?
20:22 rangi 50 seems much more realistic like BobB said
20:22 rangi it would also be very unlikely you would get 100 people not from the Phillippines
20:22 BobB an alternative would be to reserve a fixed # of places for overseas participants, say 50
20:22 cait also handling such a registration fee internationally might get hard
20:22 thd drojf: My charitable understanding is they do not want to be in a position to have no room to accommodate people travelling from far away.
20:21 cait the kohacon has traditionally been a free event - i think 100 might be a lot to some
20:21 osjerwyn wait a sec June 5-9 or June 12-16 I look for my notes
20:20 drojf why do you not want locals to participate? or maybe i misunderstand
20:19 nuentoter_ #info Justin Martin Abel J. Morneault Memorial Library, Van Buren, Me, USA
20:19 osjerwyn i have the dates!
20:19 osjerwyn wait
20:19 osjerwyn oh
20:19 rangi i dont think anyone can register without set dates
20:19 wahanui the dates are in format yyyy-mm-dd
20:19 rangi what are the dates?
20:18 osjerwyn This is the reason why this early we are asking the international Koha community to register in the Google Form because the organizing committee has decided to make the first 100 registrants to not pay for registration fee.
20:18 osjerwyn There are also other factors that we foresee it might hit the 300 limit like there are local participants even though it’s already indicated in the website and Facebook page that the conference does not accept walk-ins, there are still who does not follow.
20:18 rangi :)
20:18 drojf oh too late
20:18 osjerwyn The organizing committee this early wants to inform the Koha Community that we will have a minimal registration fee because if we make it free, local participants may take the opportunity and that the conference might exceed the 300 limit - we’re thinking of maximum of 100$.
20:18 drojf phred: err the whole kohacon this year was streamed
20:17 rangi phred: it happened in greece
20:17 osjerwyn We are asking this early the koha community to register in a google form the group will be creating if they have plans of attending KohaCon 2017 in the Philippines. Even if you are only 1% sure, please register in the form so that the group will know (there will be a field on the percentage of how sure an attendee will be attending). Since we will be limiting it to 300 (local and international), it’s important that those who have plans register
20:17 osjerwyn I'll jusr eco what we discussed
20:17 phred Has anyone tried to do a live webcast from KohaCon? Could it happen this time?
20:17 cait it looks a bit like he maybe has problems with connection
20:16 rangi nope
20:16 osjerwyn did schnydszch mentioned something already?
20:15 osjerwyn yes!
20:15 cait any update on kohacon17? :)
20:15 BobB I know :)

20:00 cait time to have a meeting!
20:00 cait ok people :)
19:59 barton g'day rangi!
19:58 rangi morning
19:56 barton woops
19:56 phred I used to have my lab computers configured to say "I have seen this kind of thing happen before, and it has always been due to human error" when Windows crashed. Very few people got the joke.
19:56 * barton /names
19:54 barton phred: I think that plays pink flloyd's 'Welcome to the machine'.
19:53 phred Or when a superlibrarian logs in. I like it!!
19:53 * barton ponders the idea of having the superlibrarian check-box play the "Mighty Mouse Will Save The Day" theme-song when clicked.
19:53 phred (Just finished setting up fail2ban after looking at my log files. Feeling a bit loopy.)
19:53 cait brb for the meeting
19:52 cait we should totally have not only koha onesies but capes too :)
19:52 * cait still waits for hers
19:52 phred If you want to be superlibrarian, you'll need a cape.
19:52 * kidclamp is the victim of too much excercise - not responsible for typos
19:51 kidclamp hah
19:51 barton I didn't know that I was in the presence of greatness...
19:51 barton kidclamp: you're *the* bbiab? wow...
19:50 nuentoter_ lol ty
19:50 barton nuentoter++
19:50 barton nuentoter_: at the very least it gets you some karma...
19:49 nuentoter_ i missed a checkbox on glabels! i fixed it which makes me super librarian of the day right?
19:46 nuentoter_ question then, if i am exporting my list of newly catalogued books using a report, and then using glabels to print, what is creating the check letter at the end? is it koha or glabels?
19:44 andreashm hi cait
19:43 nuentoter_ ok so after trying out 2 other scanners, the check letter still remains.
19:37 * cait waves
19:36 magnuse have fun #koha!
19:34 magnuse andreashm: not much, running out of battery soon
19:27 andreashm whats up?
19:26 andreashm hi magnuse
19:26 magnuse kia ora andreashm
19:17 CrispyBran_RefDesk Good. Basically, if it programs by scanning barcodes, you want to find a setting that will make it scan with just the numbers expected and CR at the end (as if pressing enter).
19:16 nuentoter should be fun HAhaha
19:16 nuentoter i found the manual in a different filing cabinet lol the manual is in english but not written by someone english speaking
19:11 CrispyBran_RefDesk Hmmmm....I can find some "esky" scanners, but not "E-sky". Either way, not finding any manuals online so far. No model number?
19:07 nuentoter hmmmm its our old one i pulled out of a filing cabinet lol, i'll find a manual online. its an "E-sky" is all it says on it
19:06 CrispyBran_RefDesk nuentoter, what scanner do you use?
19:06 CrispyBran_RefDesk nuentoter, could be a scanner issue. Our scanners come with a book that allow you to change the way it enters information. Perhaps the scanners need to be reconfigured.
19:05 cait odd
19:01 nuentoter im using glabels right now, and it works great, on the printed label it will say "*36214*" but when scanned it enters 36214K on the search line, which brings no book up
19:00 nuentoter remaining lol
18:58 cait raiming check letter?
18:55 nuentoter We will be added to the wiki when things are officially online
18:55 nuentoter i go to start cataloguing, no problem, my framework works well. then i got o print labels.......... and after printing the label, when scanned there is a raiming check letter at the end hmmmppphhhh
18:54 cait so next step is adding your library to the wiki? ;)
18:54 cait congrats!
18:54 nuentoter so finally server is up and running, all my patrons, all my records, and all my circulation data is in.
18:54 cait irc meeting is in an hour!
18:20 tcohen later #koha
16:59 oleonard Ugh, more Bugzilla spam.
16:55 kidclamp yeah, MARC doesn't really fit well with that level of detail it seems
16:53 ammo its crazy the ammount of data it would ocupy in the overall catalog
16:53 ammo I still need to take a closer look at the source data but take a newspaper for example, with periodicy of daily that has been active for the last 50 years
16:52 ammo indeed that seems to me a plausible way of handling it
16:51 ammo thank you for replying
16:51 ammo hello kidclamp
16:33 kidclamp the last email in that thread seems to be relevant - I was going to suggest analytical records
16:30 kidclamp ammo, so the issue is not enough room in an item record to store all of the info you want for each issue of a serial?
16:20 ammo also importing every issue as a record would overly populate the record index with irrelevant data
16:19 ammo My problem is pretty much the same as Paul in http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Cataloguing-serials-td4264662.html where importing as items is not an option as it would overflow the number of items for a said serial
16:18 ammo However I still am finding trouble designing a way to actually import serial issues, haven't found any reliable way of doing it
16:17 ammo I got the process of importing biblios (with respective items), patrons and authorities all figured out and done
16:16 ammo I was wondering if anyone ever tried importing serial issues in to Koha
15:59 tcohen hi
15:56 ammo afternoon all
15:47 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17264 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, aruna.bukkaraju, RESOLVED FIXED, not
15:47 CrispyBran I like bug 17264. It's simple and to the point. If only ALL bugs were that easy.
15:44 kidclamp hah oleonard - just looked at the bug
14:49 khall Joubu: thanks! I'll take a look!
14:38 Joubu khall: quick code review done on 14695
14:33 LibraryClaire all mine are URGENT!
14:32 LibraryClaire :D
14:31 oleonard If we had an internal bug tracker all the bugs would be titled "Koha"
14:31 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17264 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, aruna.bukkaraju, RESOLVED FIXED, not
14:31 oleonard The title of Bug 17264 represents the kind of bug reports I typically get from my staff. They're not good with subject lines.
13:27 drojf bye #koha

12:57 tcohen hi khall!

12:37 LibraryClaire hi tcohen, oleopard, kidclamp
12:36 tcohen Joubu: I wasn't aware of 11921, at all!
12:32 tcohen bonjour
11:59 kidclamp morning
11:59 kidclamp slothed-out?
11:59 oleonard slothish
11:59 drojf slothesque
11:59 oleonard It doesn't come up much in conversation, but I think slothful sounds right.
11:57 magnuse slothy?
11:57 magnuse Make koha-create-defaults less slothful
11:56 * oleonard pictures a series of bugs for addressing koha-create-defaults and the rest of the 7 deadly sins
11:54 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17265 normal, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Make koha-create-defaults less greedy
11:54 magnuse bug 17265
11:54 wahanui hi olé onard
11:54 drojf hi oleonard
11:54 oleonard Hi all
11:53 drojf looks like i can batch "upload" files now. yay!
11:52 magnuse that might create some interesting variants too, i guess
11:52 drojf ah heh
11:52 drojf *name
11:51 drojf like 'koha', which is probably the most used instance namen? ;)
11:51 magnuse oh, here is why the number is so high: <__KOHASITE__field> in biblioitems.marcxml
11:51 magnuse nah, if you use something more pregnant than data you'll never notice
11:50 wahanui thanks drojf :)
11:50 drojf wahanui: botsnack cookie
11:50 drojf lol wahanui
11:49 wahanui Using deft allegory, the authors have provided an insightful and intuitive explanation of one of Unix's most venerable networking utilities. http://www.amazon.com/Story-about-Reading-Railroad-Books/dp/0448421658
11:49 Joubu khall: ping?
11:48 drojf ok but then you must be the first person ever to use that script :D
11:48 magnuse yeah, that should fix it, i think
11:45 drojf *gets confused*
11:45 drojf or koha-data
11:45 drojf shouldn't that replace koha_data instead of just data?
11:42 drojf lol
11:42 magnuse i'll report the bug
11:42 magnuse when i replace __KOHASITE__ with "data" it says there are 7235 occurences of __KOHASITE__
11:42 drojf i will definitely have use for it
11:41 magnuse hehe, probably not the most used script
11:41 drojf i did it with a script when i needed it
11:41 drojf to be honest, i did not even know that command exists
11:40 magnuse yeah, not good
11:40 magnuse e.g. 'Edit catalog (Modify bibliographic/holdings __KOHASITE__)'
11:40 drojf err. that sounds scary
11:39 magnuse whether it is in the contents of a database table or whatever
11:39 magnuse but the problem is koha-dump-defaults replaces every occurence of the instance name
11:38 magnuse which i realise now is just a comment of course
11:38 magnuse you get a lot of "-- Dumping __KOHASITE__ for table `zebraqueue`"
11:37 drojf magnuse: what happened?
11:34 magnuse oops, don't call your instance "data" if you plan to run koha-dump-defaults on it...
11:34 huginn Joubu: The operation succeeded.
11:34 Joubu @later tell tcohen Letters.t and ES/Indexer.t are failing for master, 16.05 but pass for me
11:10 magnuse drojf: there are summers where that might be considered a good temperature, but we have certainly seen higher this year
11:08 cait bbl
11:04 huginn drojf: The operation succeeded.
11:04 drojf @later tell marcelr why is the owner of an uploaded file part of the hash calculation? wouldn't we want a file to be detected as the same regardless of who uploads it?
10:32 huginn Joubu: The operation succeeded.
10:32 Joubu @later tell oleonard could you have a look at bug 17220
09:59 drojf we're supposed to get 26 today and 29 tomorrow
