07:56 alex_a       Bonjour
07:56 wahanui      niihau, alex_a
08:29 cait2        hm these caits
08:29 cait2        good morning all
08:33 magnuse      cait2: the more the merrier!
11:14 tuxayo       hi #koha o/
11:15 oleonard     hi #koha o/
12:28 * cait2      wishes she was really many caits
12:45 oleonard     magnuse asked if I could still reproduce the problem described in Bug 22248 but I don't have any recollection of how I did it in the first place
12:45 huginn       Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=22248 normal, P5 - low, ---, alex.arnaud, Needs Signoff , Error when incrementing Mana comment
12:45 oleonard     I said, "When I select an existing Mana comment on a subscription ..." What does that mean?
12:48 oleonard     cait2 do you know what I might have been talking about ^
12:49 oleonard     January 2019 oleonard doesn't exist anymore.
12:52 cait2        sorry, my mana knowledge is minimal :(
12:53 oleonard     I think I loaded some Mana knowledge in my RAM long enough to test it and then flushed it.
12:54 tuxayo       Fair enough, the whole knowledge of Koha can't fit in one's brain
12:56 oleonard     tuxayo, that's exactly why I refused to learn some things ;)
12:56 cait2        oleonard: that's a good description :)
12:57 tuxayo       oleonard:  That and the time to use that knowledge
13:09 tuxayo       How does one enable email notification (to message_queue is enough) when a hold available for pickup?
13:09 tuxayo       I can't find the syspref or the tool
13:23 severine_q   hello #koha !
13:24 tuxayo       found, it was in the patron's profile
13:25 tuxayo       hi severine_q o/
13:29 severine_q   slut tuxayo !!
13:29 tuxayo       LOL
13:30 tuxayo       typo of month right here
13:30 tuxayo       https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/slut
13:30 severine_q   argh... i'm so sorry !!!!
13:31 tuxayo       he he, no worries
13:31 severine_q   très vilaine coquille...
13:33 tuxayo       indeed ^^
13:33 tuxayo       What's up around Koha on your side?
13:33 cait2        rofl
13:33 cait2        thx for brightening up my day :)
13:36 tuxayo       The exclamation marks are the icing on the cake
13:36 cait2        be careful or you'll get a new nickname :)
13:37 tuxayo       ho, right :o
13:37 severine_q   tuxayo you're making me feel worse each time you add a word !!!!
13:37 severine_q   i'm so ashamed...
13:37 * cait2      sends cookies
13:37 cait2        ... and runs into the next online meeting :(
13:38 cait2        number 4
13:38 severine_q   thanks cait2 !
13:38 severine_q   and be brave...
13:38 cait2        tcohen: around?
13:38 cait2        I'll try :)
13:38 tcohen       yes
13:38 tuxayo       severine_q: don't worry, blame the keyboard :)
13:38 cait2        did you have time yet to check the issue reported witht he display of the show analytics link?
13:39 tcohen       I'm on it at the moment
13:39 cait2        ah thx
13:39 cait2        just worried about that one, but have lost track of it
13:40 tuxayo       severine_q: congrats for bug 25700 BTW
13:40 huginn       Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=25700 minor, P5 - low, ---, severine.queune, Pushed to master , Recent Kohacons are missing from the timeline
13:40 tuxayo       confetti!
13:40 wahanui      o/`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`
13:42 tcohen       cait2, Joubu marked it 20.11
13:42 tcohen       so it will magically get fixed
13:42 tcohen       haha
13:42 * tcohen     hasn't slept well
13:42 cait2        the bug?
13:42 wahanui      the bug is that perl code is not activ since its not in PER5LIB
13:43 cait2        can you give me the number tcohen?
13:43 tcohen       bug 26480
13:43 cait2        because the feature is already pushed
13:43 huginn       Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=26480 major, P5 - low, ---, tomascohen, ASSIGNED , With UseControlNumber on, "Show analytics" link doesn't show on parent record
13:43 severine_q   thanks tuxayo ! I'm hppy to help the community with a such important patch !! :)
13:43 cait2        yes I believe that might be a mistake or up for discussion
13:43 cait2        we will advertise the feature and if it's broken, that's bad
13:44 cait2        bug 15851 is in
13:44 huginn       Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15851 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, tomascohen, Pushed to master , Only display "Analytics: Show analytics" when records have linked analytics
13:46 tuxayo       severine_q: yes! From time to time, I read the timeline to learn interesting stuff about Koha ^^
13:46 tuxayo       Important for a project with so much history.
13:50 cait2        20.11... sorry, the meetings are getting to my head.
13:50 cait2        we should fix in 20.11
13:52 tuxayo       severine_q: I have a question: do you use KohaDevBox or koha testing docker?
14:12 severine_q   argh... I don't like this question tuxayo, let me check with Nicolas
14:12 magnuse      huh, didn't we have a thing where you could preview notices and slips by filling in borrowernumber, itemnumber etc?
14:13 severine_q   yes @mgnuse, when editing the notice but not for all of them I think
14:13 severine_q   big problem with 'a' today...
14:14 severine_q   if I remermber well, for HOLD slip, you need to use a borrowernumber with an hold on an item
14:15 magnuse      can't see it for hold
14:16 magnuse      but i can see it for checkin, so you are right
14:16 magnuse      severine_q++
14:16 tcohen       I need help with Zebra
14:17 ashimema     we have a zebra topic expert now
14:17 ashimema     fridolin
14:17 wahanui      fridolin is indeed, but maybe not on Rmain 18.11
14:17 tcohen       I'm not sure why searching for rcn is returning no results
14:17 ashimema     you
14:19 fridolin     yepppp
14:19 fridolin     i try to be on both Zebra en ES
14:19 fridolin     https://emojipedia.org/zebra/
14:19 fridolin     🦓
14:19 * ashimema   has let most zebra knowledge seep out of his brain at this point
14:19 cait2        tcohen: can you try record-control-number instead?
14:19 cait2        i think one is the short form of the other
14:19 fridolin     tcohen: what is rcn
14:19 fridolin     biblionumber ?
14:19 cait2        it should work, but maybe it gives a clue
14:20 cait2        77x$w
14:20 ashimema     rcn = record control number
14:20 cait2        773$w in this case
14:20 ashimema     doesn't it?
14:20 cait2        yes
14:20 fridolin     Record-control-number 1=1045
14:20 fridolin     rcn Record-control-number
14:20 fridolin     in ccl.properites
14:20 cait2        yep
14:20 pastebot     "tcohen" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "root@kohadevbox:koha(bug_26480" (21 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/26109
14:20 severine_q   right @magnuse, it was HOLD_SLIP :)
14:21 fridolin     tcohen: ah maybe not a "known" index
14:21 tcohen       that would mean no record with that index has been added
14:21 tcohen       but
14:21 cait2        can you share the record you expect?
14:22 cait2        rcn is an old index, it's already in use for many versions, so thisis odd
14:22 fridolin     tcohen: i see Record-control-number:w, no : p
14:23 fridolin     so you may add @attr 4=6
14:23 cait2        fridolin: so only word list but no phrase...
14:23 fridolin     https://software.indexdata.com/zebra/doc/querymodel-rpn.html#querymodel-bib1-structure
14:24 fridolin     tcohen: use in staff simple search : ccl=record-control-number,alwaysmatches=''
14:24 fridolin     to get all records with any value$
14:24 tcohen       I see it there
14:25 tcohen       but running this:
14:25 tcohen       xsltproc /etc/koha/zebradb/marc_defs/marc21/biblios/biblio-zebra-indexdefs.xsl <(sudo koha-mysql kohadev <<< \
14:25 tcohen       "select  metadata from biblio_metadata where biblionumber=438 limit 1\\G" | \
14:25 tcohen       sed -n 's/metadata: //;2,$p' )
14:25 tcohen       sorry
14:25 pastebot     "tcohen" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "xsltproc /etc/koha/zebradb/mar" (3 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/26110
14:25 tcohen       ^^ we should have an alias for that
14:25 cait2        what is that?
14:25 wahanui      that is only updated manually, every now and then
14:27 tcohen       that command gives you the zebra indexes that would be generated for the biblio I specified
14:27 tcohen       and I don't see Record-control-number
14:27 tcohen       forget that
14:27 wahanui      tcohen: I forgot that
14:28 pastebot     "tcohen" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "fridolin" (52 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/26111
14:28 tcohen       I typoed the biblionumber
14:28 tcohen       on the query
14:29 tcohen       there, there is Record-control-number
14:30 cait2        tcohen: what frido was pointing out is that you can't search rcn as phrase
14:30 cait2        have you tried with the changed attribute?
14:32 tcohen       I'm not sure how to do that on CCL
14:33 cait2        how does the ccl look like now?
14:35 tcohen       record-control-number:17446121
14:35 cait2        hm
14:35 tcohen       oh
14:35 cait2        fridolin: ?
14:35 tcohen       I always forget
14:36 tcohen       to use = instead of : :-D
14:36 cait2        oh
14:36 cait2        does that help it?
14:37 tcohen       at least I know zebra has the things indexed correctly
14:37 tcohen       I now need to see what changed since this was written
14:37 tcohen       because it was clearly working
14:38 fridolin     ccl is : record-control-number,wrdl:17446121
14:38 fridolin     wrdl = word list
14:38 fridolin     oposit of phr = phrase
14:39 fridolin     but try also : record-control-number,alwaysmatches=''
14:42 pastebot     "tcohen" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "fridolin: it works in Zebra. The problem is Koha" (9 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/26113
14:44 fridolin     tcohen: ahhh yep koha replaces : with = ;)
14:44 tcohen       but why doesn't it return results :-D
14:45 tcohen       "rcn:17446121 AND (bib-level:a OR bib-level:b)"
14:45 tcohen       undef
14:45 tcohen       \ []
14:46 tcohen       https://gitlab.com/koha-community/Koha/-/blob/master/catalogue/detail.pl#L157
14:46 fridolin     rcn is well in C4::Search::getIndexes
14:46 fridolin     tcohen: opac of staff ?
14:46 fridolin     try ccl=record-control-number,alwaysmatches=''
14:47 tcohen       That's the output from warning the output of search
14:47 tcohen       I tried that, and it returns the record (amongst others)
14:47 tcohen       running the same query in Zebra gives results
14:47 tcohen       this is staff
14:48 fridolin     crap
14:54 tcohen       something changed recently?
14:54 tcohen       still cannot find it
14:54 tcohen       this is bug 26480 FYI
14:54 huginn       Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=26480 major, P5 - low, ---, tomascohen, ASSIGNED , With UseControlNumber on, "Show analytics" link doesn't show on parent record
14:54 tcohen       any help is welcome
15:03 tcohen       this is sad
15:03 tcohen       it is now working WTF
15:09 tcohen       there's some caching thing here
15:43 cait2        tcohen: i DID have some trouble testing... but then it started to work and i was happy
15:44 cait2        i blamed myself
15:45 tcohen       truth is: if you run the oneliner I pasted, you will notice our xslt produces the Record-control-number index for the record: GOOD
15:45 tcohen       if you query Zebra for that Record-control-number, it doesn't find any results: BAD
15:46 tcohen       we could blame the indexer daemon, lets stop it just in case, full reindex, restart zebra
15:46 tcohen       do the query on Zebra again: no results: BAD
15:46 tcohen       that erratic behaviour is really odd
15:46 tcohen       it eventually showed up
15:47 tcohen       but the problem is not the feature per-se, it is the indexing
15:47 tcohen       if we showed the 'Show analytics' link all the time, it wouldn't show results either
15:48 tcohen       I mean, I'm searching directly in zebra
15:53 caroline     Joubu: I relayed the message to Maryse
15:54 caroline     sorry I wasn't there yesterday to do it... I took a much needed mental health day
16:05 ashimema     how goes it today caroline :)
16:05 ashimema     thanks for merging my cash management manual stuff :)
16:07 caroline     bit better... but it's not something that will go away in one day :)
16:08 caroline     There is one merge request left, but it would rebase automatically
16:08 caroline     today it's ok so I'll merge it
16:08 ashimema     I can take a look
16:09 caroline     I don't know why it does this when people make several merge requests
16:09 caroline     and sometimes it resolves itself and sometimes not
16:09 caroline     I'm not learned enough in git to understand why/what happens
16:10 ashimema     git works in mysterious ways
16:10 caroline     lol!
16:11 ashimema     sorry for all the BZ spam btw people.. I'm cleaning up the old 'release-notes-needed' tags so we can see the wood for the trees
16:13 tuxayo       thanks ashimema
16:13 caroline     cleaning up is good
16:15 ashimema     there's loads of bugs with 'Manual' still on them.. we should probably go through and clean those out at some point too
16:15 ashimema     but that's still partly to do with me not fully understanding your processes yet docs team :)
16:21 ashimema     49 bugs.. that's a more manageable list now: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=runnamed&list_id=351733&namedcmd=Needs%20release%20notes
16:23 * ashimema   has been contemplating the release notes again..
16:24 ashimema     perhaps splitting them in two might help make them a bit more digestable.. a set of 'Technical notes' and a more 'End user notes' set perhaps
16:24 ashimema     and using a 'technical' keyword in BZ to split them...?
16:25 caroline     do we need to add release notes for technical stuff?
16:25 caroline     I'm not sure who those notes are targeting
16:26 ashimema     cait still around?
16:27 ashimema     cait cait1 cait2 cait2
16:28 caroline     lol!
16:28 caroline     calling all caits around

18:04 caroline     #topic  Review of action points
18:04 caroline     First action point was caroline will write out the current workflow
18:05 caroline     Which has been done, and is available here caroline will write out the current workflow
18:05 caroline     omg... -_-
18:05 caroline     caroline will write out the current workflow
18:05 caroline     link https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Editing_the_Koha_Manual#How_do_Bugzilla.2C_Taiga_and_Gitlab_work_together.3F
18:05 caroline     omg... sorry!

18:06 caroline     this was in response to a question by henryb about the workflow and how all the tools work together
18:06 caroline     as we discussed last time, it's not the most optimal workflow, but it's the one we have right now
18:06 lucyvh       Looks great, will be really useful
18:07 caroline     all the other action points were to try to optimize this
18:07 caroline     davidnind will check how we can use gitlab to simplify the workflow
18:07 caroline     david says he's still working on this
18:07 caroline     #action davidnind will check how we can use gitlab to simplify the workflow
18:08 caroline     then I was supposed to check with ashimema on how to work ourselves in the dev workflow on bugzilla
18:08 caroline     which I haven't done despite the reminder by ashimema lol!
18:08 ashimema     so you guys don't use the 'Manual' keyword at all?
18:08 caroline     I've never used it
18:09 caroline     but maybe we should?
18:09 caroline     I though that was your policy of having devs write better docs
18:10 caroline     I'll actionize it again so I don't forget
18:10 ashimema     well.. once upon a time I think it was used to make a bug that needed a manual entry writing still
18:10 caroline     #action  caroline will check with ashimema on how to best insert the docs writing into the dev workflow
18:11 ashimema     whereas the 'Documenatation' component was more about 'bugs with the documentation'
18:12 ashimema     but yeah.. we should work out a workflow for including both parties... making sure there's a smooth transition from 'dev has finished writing the code' to 'someone makes sure theres a corresponding manual update submitted'
18:12 caroline     what is Manual - ByWater and Manual - PTFS-E on the main page?
18:13 ashimema     those are searches I introduced to try and encourage ptfs-e and bywater to write manual entries for the bugs they wrote..
18:13 koha-jenkins Yippee, build fixed!
18:13 wahanui      Congratulations!
18:13 koha-jenkins Project Koha_Master_D9 build #1494: FIXED in 52 min: https://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_Master_D9/1494/
18:13 caroline     are tey based on the Manual keyword?
18:13 ashimema     it filters on who wrote the bug (*@bywater.com or *@ptfs-europe.com) and having the keyword 'Manual'..
18:13 ashimema     then the idea as once they'd submitted a manual merge request they could remove the keyword
18:14 ashimema     yup
18:14 koha-jenkins Yippee, build fixed!
18:14 wahanui      Congratulations!
18:14 koha-jenkins Project Koha_Master_U18 build #944: FIXED in 49 min: https://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_Master_U18/944/
18:15 caroline     When is the best time to add this keyword? like should we have a list of things to go through?
18:15 ashimema     much like the 'release-notes-needed' Keyword is being used at the minute... if it's an enhancement or new feature at push time, the RM adds 'release-notes-needed' and then when we come to work on the release notes we work through all those with that keyword and as we add the release notes text we remove the keyword
18:15 ashimema     well.. I'm not attached to doing it that way.
18:15 ashimema     it just 'a way'
18:15 caroline     yeah but it seems a good way
18:16 caroline     then we could add the manual keyword to the Documentation to-do search
18:16 ashimema     :)
18:17 caroline     We just need to determine when it's best that the docs manager go through and add the keyword
18:17 caroline     I guess I could do it from the release notes as I do it now
18:17 ashimema     the challenge at the moment is that there's loads of bugs marked with the keyword and I'm not sure which ones have already been dealt with
18:17 ashimema     well.. the RM could add the keyword upon pushing the feature
18:18 ashimema     kinda depends when we want the docs to be written
18:18 caroline     but not necessarily every bug needs to go in the manual
18:18 ashimema     I've tried writing them before QA before.. but then QA often results in changes..
18:18 caroline     like back-end stuff, we don't add to the manual
18:18 ashimema     agreed
18:18 ashimema     so it needs a little interaction as to when something needs a manual update
18:19 ashimema     perhaps that could be part of QA?
18:19 caroline     I don't want to add to your load
18:19 ashimema     who makes the call to say "I think this will need an update in the manual"
18:19 caroline     When I go through the release notes to add them to Taiga, I do a first screening
18:20 caroline     and then the writers do a more thorough one when they come upon this particular task
18:20 lucyvh       I think perhaps we only need devs to do this for the bigger features?
18:21 lucyvh       But not sure how to define that?
18:21 caroline     We can ask for help when it's too big
18:21 caroline     ashimema wrote a bunch for the cash management part since he worked so much on it
18:22 lucyvh       Yes, that sort of development definitely
18:22 ashimema     so when do you tend to go through the release notes caroline?
18:22 ashimema     to build your list.. at or just after release?
18:23 caroline     I do it periodically with the commits on gitlab
18:23 caroline     it helps me see only the new stuff that's been pushed
18:24 ashimema     reason I like the idea of adding the keyword at PQA time is that the QA person aught to have a good idea as to whether things have changed enough to warrant a manual entry and it also builds the queue of things to do before the release.. so we might stand a chance of having a manual to release with the release
18:24 ashimema     hope that makes sense
18:24 ashimema     manuals tend to be a few month behind.. at lest
18:24 caroline     yeah that's why I was using the release notes commits to see the pushes as they were pushed
18:25 caroline     (Joubu's suggestion, I need to give credit :) )
18:25 ashimema     coolios
18:25 ashimema     that's a reasonable approach
18:26 ashimema     and means the manual keyword is a bit redundant
18:26 caroline     So I could do the same and instead of adding a Taiga entry, I would just add the manual keyword
18:26 ashimema     taiga would in effect contain the same list
18:26 ashimema     whatever you're most comfortable with
18:26 ashimema     just so long as we're all on the same page :)
18:26 caroline     well, I think the purpose was to mlimit the number of tools we use
18:27 caroline     We can try it like this for the 21.05 release and see if it works better
18:27 ashimema     it's very lightwieght to use bugzilla.. especailly as the release note drafts contain links to bugzilla.. you can quickly click through, add the keyword, then close the tab
18:27 ashimema     that's how I did it as release manager
18:28 caroline     ok so first we have to clean up the manual keyword
18:28 caroline     #action caroline will clean up the manual keywords in bugzilla
18:29 ashimema     I can probably get cait/rangi to do that (that way they can do a mass clean and disable email so we don't spam the life out of people)
18:29 caroline     good idea!
18:29 caroline     #action ashimema will ask cait or rangi to clean up the manual keyword
18:29 cait         oh no, i am missing the meeting, again
18:30 ashimema     were you going to draw a fresh line.. i.e. just remove the keyword as it stands from everything and start fresh for 21.05... I think that's probably the easyest thing to do
18:30 ashimema     haha.
18:30 ashimema     naughty cait ;)
18:30 caroline     #agreed for the 21.05 release we will try using the "manual" keyword instead of Taiga to build up the task list
18:30 cait         are here that many actually?
18:30 ashimema     \i'm just volunteering you for things
18:30 cait         I see
18:30 ashimema     128 bugs with manual keyword right now cait
18:31 cait         but it's probably not going ot happen before next week
18:31 cait         oh i thought it was only me using it :)
18:31 caroline     no worries, it's for next release
18:31 cait         i could also try and fix them all... hm
18:31 ashimema     we're talking about making it a more official workflow cait :)
18:32 ashimema     making us all a bit more joined up
18:32 cait         sounds good - i meant writing manual patches for the ones i set myself would also be a way to get rid of them :)
18:32 caroline     info new workflow will be to go through release notes and add the Manual keyword where a manual update is needed
18:32 caroline     # info new workflow will be to go through release notes and add the Manual keyword where a manual update is neede
18:32 caroline     #info new workflow will be to go through release notes and add the Manual keyword where a manual update is neede
18:32 * cait       sends cookies
18:32 caroline     thanks! I need some
18:33 ashimema     what I'd really like to see if submitters taking a bit more responsability for documenting their submissions... doesn't mean the dev has to write the docs (often us devs are terrible at writing docs people can understand)... but they can and should pester their companies to help them write docs
18:33 ashimema     :)
18:33 ashimema     cookies !

18:33 caroline     Can there be more than one assignee per bug?
18:34 ashimema     afraid not.. though we could add a custom field to bugzilla easily enough
18:34 caroline     I could try to assign bugs to docs writers from compagnies of the dev
18:34 ashimema     for 'docs assignee' perhaps
18:34 caroline     but I think that would be a bit unfair
18:34 caroline     like kelly and lucyvh would end up with everything
18:35 cait         we could propose it
18:35 cait         i still think it might be nice to see if someone has already taken it on
18:36 cait         but a comment could work too until it gets a lot
18:36 ashimema     I can very easily add the custom field.. just checking if I can make it like assignee allowing you to pick a bugzilla user
18:36 caroline     I think we should use the comments until we are happy with the workflow
18:36 caroline     change one thing at a time
18:36 wahanui      caroline: that doesn't look right
18:37 cait         who is supposed to set the new manual keyword after the clean-up?
18:37 cait         can i still use it in qa when i notice something will need docs?
18:37 caroline     I would
18:37 caroline     but yeah  please do
18:37 caroline     It would be the same basic thing I'm doing right now, go through release notes and add where I fell documentation is needed
18:38 caroline     ashimema proposed to do it during qa, but I don't want to transfer this load to you necessarily
18:39 caroline     I want to summarize what we agree on
18:39 caroline     If someone has an objection, please voice it
18:39 caroline     #agreed the manual keyword will replace taiga for the 21.05 release as a test for this workflow
18:40 caroline     #agreed docs manager will go through release notes and add Manual keyword where it is needed
18:40 ashimema     caroline++ #being generally awesome
18:41 caroline     #action change the Documentation to-do search on bz main page to include Documentation component OR manual keyword
18:41 * caroline   blushes
18:41 cait         there might be bugs (not enh) that warrant changes in the docs - so good to keep an eye out for those maybe
18:41 cait         i qa

18:43 caroline     anything to add on the topic of workflow optimization?
18:44 caroline     ok moving on...
18:44 caroline     #topic  Project updates
18:45 caroline     anyone has project updates?
18:45 caroline     thd wiki?
18:45 thd          Yes.
18:47 thd          I am arranging to have a special period of doing a job from a friends home in Washington, DC caring for his father for a couple of weeks which should give me some better concentrated isolation of sorts for the wiki.
18:47 talljoy      good day!
18:48 thd          That is likely to be the first two weeks in January.
18:48 caroline     cool!
18:49 caroline     I don't think there are any other updates on projects
18:49 thd          I will not have my mother stopping me from doing things for Koha, because I am not doing any real travelling.
18:49 caroline     #topic  What's been done so far
18:50 caroline     We've had a couple merge requests, so that's good
18:50 caroline     means the manual is being worked on
18:50 caroline     I know I did a bit because it releives stress for me to work on this lol!
18:51 lucyvh       I've managed just a couple - I'm struggling to update systempreferences.rst at the mo!
18:51 caroline     how are you struggling?
18:51 lucyvh       I think the file might be getting too big?
18:51 caroline     oh!
18:51 caroline     maybe we shoudl divide it up?
18:51 lucyvh       It freezes in my browser so can't make updates?
18:52 lucyvh       My just be me :)
18:52 caroline     ok I'll try to divide it more
18:52 caroline     by module
18:52 caroline     I wanted to make smaller chapters anyway
18:53 caroline     #action caroline (or anyone) to divide the syspref file as it is getting too big for updates through gitlab GUI
18:53 lucyvh       It gives you more work - sorry caroline!
18:53 lucyvh       As I say, may just be for me?
18:53 caroline     no worries, like I said it helps me relieve stress :)
18:54 lucyvh       :)
18:54 caroline     I procrastinate by being production on the manual
18:54 ashimema     some chapters are indeed pretty big
18:54 cait         it is our biggest, removing hte Administration bits was a first step, but it might not be enough for editing in the browser
18:54 cait         string wise... prefs are massive
18:54 cait         you can see it on translate
18:54 ashimema     haha.. I know that feeling caroline...
18:54 ashimema     I have a very large 'procrastination list'
18:54 cait         sometimes it's good because it gets other stuff done...
18:54 ashimema     indeed
18:55 caroline     it's something I feel I'm good at so it helps in moments where work is hard
18:56 lucyvh       I just need work to quieten down so I can do more manual stuff
18:57 caroline     #topic  Content development guidelines
18:57 caroline     I had two things I wanted to discuss here, but it's getting late
18:58 caroline     After Julius' talk at Koha con on accessibility, I looked up how to add alt text to images in the manual
18:58 caroline     #linkhttps://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/ReStructuredText_-_Tips_and_Tricks#Images
18:58 caroline     #link https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/ReStructuredText_-_Tips_and_Tricks#Images
18:58 caroline     I put it here
18:58 caroline     so when you add images, please add some descriptive text with it to help people with accessibility issues
18:59 ashimema     cool caroline
18:59 ashimema     I noticed there was a start on that :)
18:59 caroline     #info when adding images, remember to add alt text for increased accessibility
18:59 lucyvh       Will do
18:59 caroline     I'll leavet he other points for next meeting
18:59 caroline     #topic  Next steps
19:00 caroline     priority is to Work on new features and enhancements for 20.11
19:00 caroline     #topic  Set time of next meeting
19:00 thd          Obviously, with or without alt the text of the manual should make things clear.
19:01 caroline     4 weeks from now is dec 10
19:01 caroline     is that good?
19:01 thd          Trying again:  Obviously, with or without alt text for images, the text of the manual should make things clear.
19:01 caroline     thd indeed
19:02 lucyvh       Dec 10 good for me
19:02 caroline     but if someone with a screen reader is read "image1455" it's not clear if the image adds to the text or not
19:02 caroline     I for one would be curious what "image1455" is...
19:03 caroline     Usually images in the manual just show what that part of Koha looks like, images don't necessarily add to the text, but blind people can't know that
19:03 caroline     so just wirting "add new item type form" at least tells them they aren't missing out on anything important
19:03 caroline     (I think(
