12:50	hdl	thd: have you tried with procesz3950queue or with something else
12:51	hdl	thd : I think you are right.
12:51	hdl	thd : what would you suggest to make deeper test..
12:52	hdl	?
13:33	thd	hdl: I had been writing a new simple z39.50 client and not using the one in Koha.
13:35	thd	hdl: I imagine that I had made a coding error for the authentication syntax.
13:42	hdl	thd : did you manage since ?
13:46	thd	hdl: no, I grew to tired and could not keep my eyes awake :)
13:46	hdl	No problem.
13:49	thd	hdl: well, my Googling has shown other people with a similar problem, but I may have to isolate the relevant code and run it separately to try and solve this.
13:50	thd	hdl: Koha has no place to specify the version 2 or 3 of the Z39.50 target.
13:52	thd	hdl: I have read something suggesting that the syntax for authentication is different between version 2 and version 3 targets.
14:59	thd	osmoze: In the example that you had provided http://www.bibli.ens-cachan.fr[…]/profil_z3950.htm , I do not know what to use for database name as in 138.231.48.2:21210/$database .
15:00	thd	osmoze: what is $database in the example that you provided?
15:01	thd	osmoze: If you post a reply, I will see it later.
16:36	osmoze	thd, i think it MAIN*BIBMAST or ADVANCE
16:36	osmoze	if not, i can take contact with a cachan's librarian
16:55	osmoze	thd-away, i found another link with a many database on : http://www.valdoise.fr/revodoc/zprofil.htm
16:59	osmoze	go to bed

09:58	kados	hi owen
09:58	owen	g'morning
09:59	kados	sounds like fun ;-)
09:59	owen	And tiring!
09:59	owen	Much easier to sit in this chair all day ;)
10:00	kados	hehe
10:05	hdl	hi there !
10:06	kados	hi hdl :-)
10:07	hdl	Howdi kados ! :)
11:52	hdl	hi thd
11:53	kados	hdl: could you explain serials to me? or point me to the docs on them ;-)
11:53	kados	hdl: I'm not really sure I know what a serial even is ;-)
11:54	hdl	a serial is for instance WIRED, Login-Magazine asoasf...
11:54	hdl	But this is the General name,
11:55	hdl	You can subscribe to this serial.
11:55	hdl	And then receive numbers of the serials.
11:55	kados	ok
11:55	kados	so volume 1 issue 3 or something
11:56	hdl	Managing subscriptions is called bulletinage in French.
11:57	kados	so what aspects of managing subscriptions does Koha handle?
11:57	hdl	Sometimes, serials have weird numbers , such as :
11:57	hdl	Year X Number Y
11:57	hdl	Or even more weird.
11:57	kados	right
11:57	kados	I have a law library interested in Koha but who needs serials support
11:57	kados	i think he probably has very complex requirements
11:57	hdl	ATM : One can manage subscriptions to a serial.
11:58	kados	so what's the workflow like?
11:58	hdl	That is : you know which numbers you have, which have not been received.
11:58	kados	ahh
11:58	kados	can I still barcode individual issues or volumes?
11:59	hdl	Sure...
11:59	hdl	BUt you will have to CREATE the biblio on your own. That SHOULD definitely be improved... But Not right now.
11:59	hdl	1. You input Supplier A
