chris |
this is pretty much all wrong |
| 16:49 |
|
chris |
just to start, katipo isnt a consulting firm .. new zealand is a group of islands ... the list goes on |
| 16:51 |
|
kados |
heh |
| 16:52 |
|
kados |
who wrote it? |
| 16:52 |
|
chris |
askress2009 put it up |
| 16:52 |
|
chris |
it looks to be screen scraped from somewhere else |
| 16:53 |

Open Source Integrated Library Systems: An Overview/ Eric Anctil, Jamshid Beheshti.-2003 |

|
chris |
hmm how to deal with it |
| 16:53 |
|
kados |
looks to be pretty old |
| 16:53 |
|
kados |
2003 |
| 16:53 |
|
chris |
and wrong :) |
| 16:53 |
|
kados |
well ... one way to deal would be to place italicized comments in between each paragraph, explaining where it's wrong |
| 16:54 |
|
chris |
yeah ill do that |
| 16:55 |

kados |
so whoever askress2009 is ... |
| 16:55 |
|
chris |
yep |
| 16:55 |
|
chris |
they did the arabic version too |
| 16:56 |
|
chris |
so ill fix the english one, and hopefully they will fix the arabic one |
| 16:56 |
|
kados |
well they probably subscribe to the rss feed, so I'm sure they'll update it |
| 16:56 |
|
chris |
cool |
| 16:56 |
|
Burgwork |
can I ask an inflamatory question: why are you guys stuck on doku? why not mediawiki or moinmoin? |
| 16:56 |
|
chris |
it works |
| 16:56 |
|
kados |
yea, mainly it works and is super simple to install |
| 16:56 |
|
chris |
hasnt annoyed us, the end |
| 16:56 |
|
kados |
yea |
| 16:56 |
|
Burgwork |
ok, just wondering |
| 16:56 |
|
kados |
I did try media wiki |
| 16:56 |
|
kados |
for the record |
| 16:57 |
|
Burgwork |
moin is probably more applicable |
| 16:57 |
|
kados |
but basically, I would be the only one who could manage it :-) |
| 16:57 |
|
kados |
haven't seen that one |
| 16:57 |
|
chris |
i wonder why my password got sent hmm |
| 16:57 |
|
kados |
would it have any advantages over doku? |
| 16:58 |
|
Burgwork |
wiki.ubuntu.com live.gnome.org and wiki.fedora.org all use moin |
| 16:58 |
|
Burgwork |
more features, nicer to use |
| 16:58 |
|
Burgwork |
active development. python |
| 16:58 |
|
Burgwork |
http://old.koha.org/about/map/ <-- redoing this interests me |
| 16:58 |
|
Burgwork |
no using googles API, however |
| 17:01 |
|
kados |
what features do they have, how are they nicer? :_) |
| 17:01 |
|
kados |
why not google api? :-) |
| 17:01 |
|
Burgwork |
visual look, mostly |
| 17:01 |
|
Burgwork |
the google maps look like google maps |
| 17:02 |
|
Burgwork |
that old map has a very nice style to it |
| 17:02 |
|
Burgwork |
very simple |
| 17:03 |
|
kados |
well the class working on this has previous experience with google, so that's part of the reason it was chosen |
| 17:03 |
|
chris |
it has a nice interface for placing things too .. but the big thing it misses why we stopped using it was a zoom in/out feature |
| 17:03 |
|
kados |
sec, phone |
| 17:03 |
|
Burgwork |
is there an implementation being worked on? |
| 17:04 |
|
Burgwork |
if you did some fancy javascript stuff, you could preload the images/divs, which would speed up the process |
| 17:05 |
|
Burgwork |
be a bit more work todo initially, but it would be pretty easy to maintain |
| 17:05 |
|
chris |
naw, it does what its designed to do (and that wasnt koha maps :-)) |
| 17:06 |
|
Burgwork |
very nice |
| 17:06 |
|
kados |
this quarter it's the Koha world map |
| 17:06 |
|
kados |
and the google api is ideal because it's so easy to learn |
| 17:06 |
|
kados |
and 10 wks isn't long enough for a class to do much more |
| 17:06 |
|
Burgwork |
well, here is another solution: use one of the open source mapping solutions, like kaMaps and add the basic outline to it |
| 17:06 |
|
Burgwork |
then you get your mapping with your zoom |
| 17:07 |
|
kados |
we're sorta already committed at this point to google ... but I hear you :-) |
| 17:07 |
|
Burgwork |
yep, no worries |
| 17:07 |
|
Burgwork |
something is better than nothing |
| 17:07 |
|
kados |
yea, that's just it mainly |
| 17:08 |
|
kados |
right ... well I've gotta jet |
| 17:08 |
|
kados |
meeting and all |
| 17:08 |
|
kados |

| 17:08 |
|
