owen |
This place sure is quiet lately |
05:21 |
|
thd |
hdl: have you returned? |
07:26 |
|
hdl |
yes thd. |
07:53 |
|
thd |
hdl: What is the difference between the Koha UNIMARC electronic resources framework and the default framework? Except for the name, I do not notice a difference. |
07:56 |
|
hdl |
Do there may be no difference at all. These are ancient frameworks. |
07:57 |
|
thd |
hdl: do you have less ancient frameworks? :) |
08:00 |
|
thd |
hdl: Are your libraries usually using different frameworks that are not in CVS? |
08:00 |
|
hdl |
osmoze sent me one designed for CDs. I have one For local library. But we always craft them one by one. |
08:02 |
|
thd |
hdl: only default, electronic resources, and serials are in CVS. |
08:02 |
|
thd |
hdl: complete with the major non-repeatable fields defined as repeatable :) |
08:04 |
|
hdl |
yes... Nobody asked for them... And it needs two or ther operation to generate them... :) |
08:05 |
|
hdl |
Somteimes, we have hard time to get things work. |
08:05 |
|
thd |
hdl: The koha-fr.org Koha demonstration seems to reset itself to English instead of French. Is that a feature or a bug? |
08:06 |
|
hdl |
It is a feature. |
08:06 |
|
thd |
hdl: Why? |
08:07 |
|
thd |
hdl: Is koha-fr.org not a French site? |
08:07 |
|
hdl |
Yes. |
08:08 |
|
hdl |
But demonstration is quite international. |
08:08 |
|
hdl |
And since features are first designed in English, som translations should be made. |
08:09 |
|
hdl |
such as user-flags, and so on.. |
08:11 |
|
thd |
hdl: Yes, except that the UNIMARC Koha frameworks are only in French. There has not been enough non-French interest in UNIMARC Koha for anyone to have translated the UNIMARC frameworks. |
08:12 |
|
hdl |
I'll ask paul what he wants to do about that when he returns. |
08:14 |
|
thd |
hdl: I have been including links to particular pages in demo.koha-fr.org for the analytical feature list that I am finishing. I have assigned French titles to the links but they do not stay French :) |
08:16 |
|
thd |
hdl: You should have koha-unimarc.org for an international demonstration that defaults to English. |
08:19 |
|
thd |
hdl: What is the browse path to serials subscription management from the intranet home in with the French default templates? |
08:20 |
|
thd |
hdl: I mean what browse path do I use to create a new subscription with the default templates? |
08:22 |
|
hdl |
catalogue>périodiques>Enregistrer périodique |
08:29 |
|
thd |
hdl: I see the option now. That second line of options is one that I have usually ignored :) |
08:30 |
|
hdl |
you shouldn't have. |
08:30 |
|
hdl |
:) |
08:31 |
|
thd |
hdl: I had mostly used the npl templates when learning to use Koha where that menu line does not exist. |
08:36 |
|
thd |
hdl: The npl templates try to put child links within the main body of the page. The navigation bar method in the default templates is better expect that the size seems fixed and could only hold a few child or sibling links. |
08:38 |
|
hdl |
I never used npl :S |
08:39 |
|
thd |
hdl: Do you and paul have any plans to fully support recommendation 995? |
08:40 |
|
hdl |
It is mainly done, unless peculiar requirements that our clients do not have. |
08:41 |
|
thd |
hdl: It is only a special adaptation for Koha holdings. |
08:45 |
|
thd |
hdl: Some extra subfields for Koha holdings are added, some coded fields are non-standard to support the coded values that Koha expects, many subfields are ignored. There seem to be no plugins to support standard usage or some filter to export records with standard usage. |
08:48 |
|
thd |
hdl: My question involves whether you have plans to support Recommendation 995 to exchange record information for interlibrary loan purposes? |
08:59 |
|
thd |
hdl_away: when will you return? |
09:00 |
|
hdl |
Back :) |
09:02 |
|
thd |
hdl: did you see my questions about whether you plan to support subfield usage that is compliant with Recommendation 995 for record export to interlibrary loan systems? |
09:08 |
|
thd |
hdl: Is my question clear? |
09:09 |
|
hdl |
afaik, it is neither asked by customers nor planned. |
09:10 |
|
thd |
hdl: you need more customers with more needs :) |
09:11 |
|
hdl |
No only some but with strong requirements and big wallets :) |
09:12 |
|
thd |
hdl: That is what I should have said :0 |
09:12 |
|
hdl |
Anyway, adding an auhtorised calue list is not that complicated. |
09:12 |
|
hdl |
What is more troublesome is coded areas such as homebranch, holdingbranch. |
09:13 |
|
thd |
hdl: Certainly, except that there is a little problem with at least one very important subfield. |
09:13 |
|
hdl |
which name is... ? |
09:14 |
|
hdl |
$b and $d ? |
09:14 |
|
thd |
hdl: items.notforloan has numeric values unrelated to the coded values for recommendation 995. |
09:15 |
|
hdl |
yes $o |
09:16 |
|
thd |
hdl: exactly, I have not memorised the Recommendation 995 subfields yet :) |
09:17 |
|
thd |
hdl: There may be other required subfields with problems but that one is very obvious. |
09:17 |
|
hdl |
When it will be the time, there will be a solution. |
09:19 |
|
thd |
hdl: The values for the 95 $o would need to be translated to the coded values for record export upon an external request to support an interlibrary loan application using Recommendation 995. |
09:20 |
|
thd |
hdl: I did not ay that well but you know what I meant :) |
09:20 |

thd |
welcome back kados |
10:28 |
|
thd |
kados: It seems very primitive, although, it may be standards compliant underneath. |
11:27 |
|
hdl |
thd : Your language selection problem with demo.koha-fr.org is over. |
11:35 |
|
hdl |
kados: hi |
