bonjour paul. |
| 02:46 |
|
thd- |
welcome back paul |
| 02:46 |
|
thd- |
good morning hdl |
| 02:46 |
|
paul |
(on phone) |

|
hdl |
hi thd. |
| 02:48 |
|
thd- |
hdl: I have noticed an issue for unicode Koha. |
| 02:48 |
|
Sylvain |
hi |
| 02:48 |
|
hdl |
hi sylvain. |
| 02:49 |
|
hdl |
thd- wihch one ? |
| 02:49 |
|
thd- |
hello Sylvain |
| 02:50 |
|
thd- |
hdl: MS Windows users cannot type in UTF-8 for the Koha editor, only UTF-7 or UTF-16 if using unicode under Windows. |
| 02:54 |
|
hdl |
owen spoke about this issue for OPAC. |
| 02:55 |
|
hdl |
I don't think that it should be a real issue if server and librarian are on a Linux Box, with firefox, which is the advised conf. |
| 02:55 |
|
thd- |
hdl: This seems also to be an issue for the intranet as far as the record editor is concerned. |
| 02:56 |
|
thd- |
hdl: If the librarian is on a linux box with a UTF-8 local setting there is no problem. |
| 02:57 |
|
hdl |
If librarians must work under Windows, sure. |
| 02:57 |
|
thd- |
hdl: However, cataloguers would be prevented form using Windows boxes with Firefox. |
| 02:57 |
|
hdl |
But they can be advised to work on a "FREE" System, since when they ask for KOHA they also ask for advice. |
| 02:58 |
|
thd- |
hdl: They may not always be happy to change their OS just to use Koha. |
| 02:59 |
|
hdl |
If they already have an OS... |
| 02:59 |
|
hdl |
But they can be haooy to change computers :P |
| 02:59 |
|
hdl |
Then Charset Encoding could/should be checked BEFORE processing the modify/save... |
| 03:00 |
|
thd- |
hdl: One of the great advantages of Koha is that the server can be remote so as long as the librarians have at least a Mozilla browser installed. |
| 03:00 |
|
hdl |
But that is for version 3.0 |
| 03:01 |
|
hdl |
As far as current version is concerned, it is not FULL UTF-8... :) |
| 03:01 |
|
thd- |
hdl: Version 3.0 for you, version 2.2.X for a solution that I am working on. |
| 03:02 |
|
hdl |
Have you given a try to Turkish Hack ? |
| 03:03 |
|
thd- |
hdl: Has the Turkish hack posted anything other than some Turkish character set mappings? |
| 03:03 |
|
hdl |
They spoke about their experience with UTF-8 on koha-devel. |
| 03:04 |
|
hdl |
So I think it is quite general. |
| 03:04 |
|
thd- |
hdl: Exactly, but they have not yet posted code changes. |
| 03:05 |
|
hdl |
No.... But they can be asked. ;) |
| 03:06 |
|
hdl |
You can also look HTTP header to know wich cher set is used on the page or which OS the code comes from... And use |
| 03:06 |
|
hdl |
a type a transcoding code. |
| 03:07 |
|
hdl |
using Encode PERL package. |
| 03:11 |
|
thd- |
hdl: I spoke with ambrose on #koha a week ago about problems that he was having with a user for whom he had converted Koha to UTF-8. |
| 03:13 |
|
thd- |
hdl: ambrose had not determined whether the problems were client configuration related or Koha related. |
| 03:18 |
|
thd- |
hdl: ambrose had written C4::Interface::CGI::Output.pm originally, but had not determined what the problem was in this case. |
| 03:21 |
|
thd- |
shaun: Do you have a tentative CSS that I can use for aiding the writing of content for koha.org? |
| 03:23 |
|
shaun |
thd-: good point, I was going to talk to you about that - I was planning on doing it the other way round;where the css is applied to the content rather than tthe content being placed into the full site |
| 03:26 |
|
shaun |
i have a rough template for the faq section and can send you everything inside the content frame, but the css won't be available until i've checked it with russ (9PM GMT today) |
| 03:28 |
|
shaun |
as for features: how are you doing with those pages? i would be happy to work alongside you and any other writers to make the inside page look good within my design |
| 03:30 |
|
thd- |
shaun: I a had originally hoped that kados had already partly written the features in another form for his submission to the forthcoming Computers in Libraries issue on the ILS. |
| 03:35 |
|
thd- |
shaun: Unfortunately, the questionnaire that kados had answered was much less featurefull than I had hoped. So I am writing my own feature outline. |
| 03:37 |
|
thd- |
shaun: I am not at home for another day or so. When I return. I will have access to my own computer. Poor connectivity does not allow me remote access. |
| 03:49 |
|
thd- |
hdl: I try to find the email address for ambrose, yet Sourceforge keeps timing out :( |
| 08:14 |
|
Sylvain |
