I was just wondering what that good reason was 18:44 caroline yes, 9XX are local use, but MARC21 already has a field for holdings, why create another one 18:43 oleonard I don't remember exactly but I think it's because 9XX are local use? 18:43 caroline But it would save me and my team a whole lot of headaches when migrating databases from other systems 18:42 caroline oops sorry! ;) I'll wait until Sept 12 to ask again 18:41 oleonard Asking to know that before you've survived the initiation ceremony is a little presumptuous caroline 18:40 caroline Does anyone know why Koha uses 952 for holdings instead of 852 in MARC21? 16:09 cait thx for signing my monstrous patch, oleonard++ 16:09 cait i am :) 16:04 caroline I thought you were on vacation 16:04 caroline Hi cait ! 16:04 oleonard Hi cait 16:03 * cait waves 15:38 oleonard Hi caroline 15:30 caroline Hello everyone! 15:16 reiveune bye 14:56 ashimema don't think there have been any so far 14:56 * ashimema hopes his githook is catching backported new authors as it's supposed to 14:42 kidclamp grah 14:35 huginn Joubu: The operation succeeded. 14:35 Joubu @later tell kidclamp it seems that you forgot to add the new devs to the about page (and history.txt) 14:32 Joubu kidclamp: it seems that you forgot to add the new devs to the about page (and history.txt) 14:13 ashimema yup 14:13 eythian roughly as far away as you can get. 14:13 eythian oh right 14:13 ashimema Maastricht 14:12 ashimema about 2h30 away from you then.. but with family in toe ;) 14:12 ashimema haha.. very true 14:11 eythian have you seen how small this country is? 14:11 eythian wait, all of holland is near amsterdam 14:10 eythian ah, wat jammer 14:10 * ashimema is heading to holland in a few weeks time.. not near amsterdam though 14:09 eythian yeah, that's a bit much. 14:09 ashimema I can only sit in my office for a matter of minutes in front of the fans at the moment before I have to retreat to cooler rooms ;) 14:09 ashimema 32℃ outside if my thermometers are to be believed 14:09 ashimema it's just hit 44.5℃ in my office ;) 14:07 eythian ashimema: yeah, it's 29° in my apartment at the moment.

I did a fair few early on but it's been more sporadic of late 08:31 andreashm ashimema: yup! had hope to meet you at kohacon this year, but saw that you weren't attending. but next year for sure! 08:27 tuxayo <3 08:27 ashimema 'tis nice being back in community though.. I've missed it the past couple of years. 08:25 * ashimema just looked at the number of upgrade in the queue and scared himself.. that's not my area anymore.. I managed to make the case for new staff for it a few years back and have never really looked back.. managing the dev team, doing development and getting back on top of my community roles is more than enough work for one person ;) 08:23 ashimema I don't know the solution to be honest.. everyone here likes customisation to the hilt 08:23 ashimema some is automated, some is not ;) 08:23 tuxayo >< 08:23 tuxayo **also 08:22 tuxayo *for you alos 08:22 ashimema no doubt we'll meet in 2019 kohacon 08:22 tuxayo I guess automating part of the process is very difficult for also right? 08:22 tuxayo ashimema[m] «most customers have a ton of customisation or pre-release enhancements bolted on» 08:22 ashimema hehe 08:22 andreashm =) I meant. 08:22 andreashm ashimema: =9 08:20 calire :) 08:20 ashimema of course.. i thought you'r nick rang a bell ;) 08:20 * andreashm waves back 08:20 * calire waves 08:19 andreashm ashimema: ours? I would hope so. Stockholm Univ Library 08:18 ashimema a library I've heard of andreashm? 08:18 ashimema always fun 08:18 ashimema indeed 08:17 andreashm ashimema: I sympathize. We have the exact same issue (lots of local patches) that makes upgrading difficult. 08:16 * ashimema hopes he can push for a hold on 18.05.x whilst he's community maintainer.. get our entire customer base onto it over the next year or so. 08:16 ashimema we'll get there in the end I'm sure.. and at present it's us that feels the pain rather than customers really.. they get upgrades pretty frequently really.. just a bit of a spread to support 08:15 ashimema I think at this point it's just that we have never managed to get on top of upgrades.. sales always want to install at the very latest and greatest.. some customers want to upgrade, others do not.. but the really big issue is how hard our upgrades are.. most customers have a ton of customisation or pre-release enhancements bolted on.. which makes each upgrade a non-trivial task :( 08:11 fridolin ^^ 08:11 andreashm fridolin: the perfect combo 08:10 fridolin release maintainer is also community maintainer :D 08:10 andreashm ashimema: yeah, I guess that's a problem when customers can decide for themselves when to upgrade? =) 08:09 fridolin you welcome ;) 08:09 andreashm fridolin: thanks a lot! 08:09 fridolin our next setp is 17.11.10 in octobre 08:09 andreashm fridolin: that sounds interesting. we have discussed creating a similar test suite to be able to create a better/quicker upgrade process. 08:09 fridolin andreashm: oki, so in conclusion my personal advice is to jump to 17.11.06 08:08 * ashimema wishes his customer base wasn't so spread out.. we have customers on a realyl wide range of releases at the moment. 08:08 fridolin andreashm: ah we have also some own api code, we work on test suite to be more efficient on testing compatiblity with Koha code 08:07 andreashm we have 16.05 now. So still a big jump to 17.11 08:07 fridolin okiii, we jump only from xx.11 to yy.11 so we also will wait for 18.11.x 08:06 andreashm hehe 08:06 ashimema gut feeling from how many bugfixes I'm still pushing ;) 08:06 andreashm (we have some heavy use of api:s, that change a lot between releases etc) 08:05 ashimema I think although 18.05.x is a nice release, it's still got a bit of settling down to do.. 08:05 andreashm fridolin: we want to test properly first. we've done that with 17.11. if we go for 18.05 we have to start over. 08:05 * ashimema would actually recommend sticking to 17.11 unless there's something specific you want in 18.05 08:05 andreashm ashimema: we've decided for 17.11. Just wanted to make sure we go for a stable bugfix release. =) 08:05 ashimema no problem.. you happened to have probably the two best people at present to answer that question lurking here right now ;) 08:04 fridolin andreashm: but why not jump to 18.05.x ? its nice and you may use ElasticSearch 08:04 andreashm thanks ashimema, fridolin! 08:04 ashimema :) 08:04 andreashm alright, we'll look extra at that one! 08:04 fridolin and also translations are better an better ;) 08:04 ashimema it should just fix stuff that's broken 08:04 fridolin we at biblibre use the 17.11.06 its quite stable 08:03 ashimema important securit andbugfix patches go into those releases.. but as release maintainers we're careful to not backport features.. we work on 'least surprise' principals.. a point release shouldn't surprise you 08:03 fridolin I advice you to use the lasted stable release 08:03 fridolin andreashm: yop, no big diff between 17.11.01 and 17.11.08 but some critical fixes 08:02 ashimema personally I think you should choose you're feature branch (i.e 17.05.x, 17.11.x or 18.05.x) based on the features you need/want and then try to keep up with the bugfix releases upon it.. i.e the .01 etc bits. 08:02 andreashm (fridolin and other who might know?) 08:01 andreashm any big differences we should consider? 08:01 andreashm we have been testing 17.11.01 during the end of spring. wondering if the best thing would be to upgrade to .01 or go for the latest release (.08?) instead. 08:00 andreashm we are preparing to upgrade to 17.11 next week. 07:46 ashimema hello 07:45 fridolin hi 07:43 andreashm hi fridolin 07:41 * andreashm waves 07:30 fridolin iji there 06:37 reiveune hello 03:23 Joubu bye 03:23 Joubu and thread "Expected behaviour if itemtype does not exist" on koha-devel (July 2017) 03:22 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=21150 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Needs Signoff , Data inconsistencies - item types 03:22 Joubu mtj: bug 21150 02:24 mtj (i confirm its non-mandatory by default) 02:20 mtj looks like items.itype can be set to mandatory via the fwrks, so thats a fix of sorts 02:13 mtj how do people feel about this 🔥🔥topic? 02:08 mtj ..ive spotted a few edgecase bugs for circ and reserves, that assume an item if have an itemtype defined 02:07 mtj hey #koha, do people think it might be a good idea to start to require a mandatory itemtype for an item?
