Galen - Email about overdues... Production doesn't have the new Circ parameter, and the test download doesn't go anywhere... |

OK thanks! |

After a hold has been checked in, confirmed, and transferred, what should the "found" column in the reserves table say? F? |
| 14:43 |
|
owen |
It only says W when it's waiting at its destination right? |
| 15:27 |
|
hdl_laptop |
owen: I *think* so |
| 15:32 |
|
owen |
Thanks hdl_laptop. I'm not seeing anything in the "found" column for some reserves I know have been confirmed and transfered. |

hi all...is there still a way to index individual materials by biblionumber? update_items.pl seems to be abandoned. |
| 17:49 |

Bugzilla site down? Anyone who can fix it? I'm getting an "internal server error" message. It was OK earlier today. |
| 17:50 |
|
jwagner |
I went to the new site URL http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/index.cgi |
| 17:51 |
|
cm |
i'm getting an internal server error on it, too. |
| 17:51 |
|
cm |
it was okay a couple of hours ago. |
| 17:57 |
|
jwagner |
Bugzilla seems to be back now. |

cm: the zebraqueue table holds a list of all biblios that will be updated with the next run of rebuild_zebra.pl -z . |
| 18:03 |
|
cm |
thanks ryan_. i was wondering if it was something like that. thanks! |

Someone around who knows about the pending holds report (pendingreserves.pl)? |
| 18:22 |
|
jwagner |
I have a question about the date defaults. |
| 19:30 |
|
chris |
man it was lucky i had coffee before answering that mail |
| 19:33 |
|
owen |
Those "why can't it do this" messages? |
| 19:34 |
|
chris |
yep |
| 19:35 |
|
chris |
SelfishMan: a tool to do that would be pretty nifty |
| 19:35 |
|
chris |
step 1 in updating your catalogue records |
| 19:35 |
|
chris |
1st get isbn numbers, then you can get full marc records and merge |
| 19:36 |
|
SelfishMan |
My problem is matching the existing record with the ISBN |
| 19:36 |
|
chris |
yeah thats the hard bit |
| 19:36 |
|
SelfishMan |
ha ha ha |
| 19:37 |
|
chris |
i guess you need to do a search by author and title |
| 19:37 |
|
chris |
and present a list back |
| 19:37 |
|
chris |
and have a human pick the one he/she thinks is right |
| 19:37 |
|
SelfishMan |
The human part is the real problem |
| 19:38 |
|
SelfishMan |
I think I have enough data I can match against but I need to test it |
| 19:38 |
|
chris |
yep |
| 19:39 |
|
chris |
i still want to build my flash barcode reader |
| 19:39 |
|
SelfishMan |
I guess a few years back the person that was cataloging didn't see a reason to include ISBNs |
| 19:39 |
|
chris |
so with a webcam you hold the item up, and it scans the isbn |
| 19:39 |
|
SelfishMan |
That would be nice |
| 19:39 |
|
chris |
like that library program on the mac does |
| 19:43 |
|
chris |
SelfishMan: i guess searchign amazon might be useful for the ones you cant get a single match on |
| 19:43 |
|
chris |
because the picture of the book might help match in that case? |
| 19:43 |
|
chris |
(might help the human that is) |
| 19:44 |
|
SelfishMan |
Trying to minimize the human element in it |
| 19:44 |
|
owen |
Hmm... I managed to choke Koha 3.01.00.014 with an sql report that ran fine in Koha 3.01.00.009 |
| 19:44 |
|
SelfishMan |
I think if I look at the title, author, publish date and edition info I can match it most of the time |
| 19:45 |
|
fredericd |
chris: Your flash barcode reader already exists... |
| 19:45 |
|
chris |
oh yeah i know the flash to do it does |
| 19:45 |
|
chris |
integrating it with koha is the bit i havent done |
| 19:45 |
|
fredericd |
ok |
| 19:46 |
|
chris |
so to do a z3950 search in cataloguing, you can just scan the book instead of typing it in :) |
| 19:46 |
|
fredericd |
It is embedded in French Librarything clone |
| 19:46 |
|
chris |
ohh sweet i may not have seen that one |
| 19:46 |
|
chris |
do you know what the license is? |
| 19:46 |
|
fredericd |
It mustn't be too hard to integrate into Koha |
| 19:47 |
|
fredericd |

| 19:47 |
|
fredericd |
You need to register and it's in French... |
| 19:47 |
|
chris |
lucky i know some french people :-) |
| 19:48 |
|
chris |
thanks fredericd |
| 19:48 |
|
fredericd |
I can ask for the licence |
| 19:49 |
|
chris |
that would be great, if the flash is licensed under a GPL compatible license that would be awesome |
| 19:50 |
|
SelfishMan |
http://en.barcodepedia.com/download |
| 19:51 |
|
fredericd |
mail sent to ask. |
| 19:51 |
|
chris |
thanks fredericd |
| 19:52 |
|
chris |
and SelfishMan |
| 19:54 |
|
chris |
cool, that might work, i dont mind leaving the logo on |
| 19:54 |
|
chris |
welp, there goes the weekend :) |
| 20:00 |
|
chris |
anyone have a webcam ? |
| 20:00 |
|
SelfishMan |
sure...somewhere |
| 20:01 |
|
owen |
On my Mac at home, yeah |
| 20:02 |
|
chris |
if people wanted to try that barcodepedia out and let me know if it works, its not too happy on my little hp mini under linux |
| 20:04 |
|
chris |
but that might be cos the camera is crap :) |
| 20:09 |
|
fredericd |
If I want to add a syspref, I need to reserve a Version number here: |
| 20:09 |
|
fredericd |
http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?[…]s:start&s=version |
| 20:09 |
|
fredericd |
Is it correct? |
| 20:10 |
|
fredericd |
Can I just take v3.01.00.026 or do I need to wait that .026 version to be pushed before sending my patch? |
| 20:10 |
|
chris |
yeah if you need to update the database |
| 20:11 |
|
chris |
if your patch is ready, (and includes the update to the version number) |
| 20:12 |
|
chris |
then i would put down .026 and submit and change that page to say submitted |
| 20:12 |
|
chris |
then the pending people will know that they need to use .027 or greater |
| 20:13 |
|
chris |
if its not ready yet just list it with no number yet, and change the number when you submit it |
| 20:13 |
|
fredericd |
Will try now. Thanks. |
| 20:16 |
|
chris |
http://en.flossmanuals.net/ <-- we should make use of this |
| 20:21 |
|
owen |
Hmm... not about dental hygiene as I'd thought. |
| 20:21 |
|
chris |
heh |
| 20:22 |
|
chris |
we had a pizza thursday talk on it, some guys at work have been work on the OLPC manuals |
| 20:25 |
|
chris |
seems nice and easy to use, and they print out really well |
| 20:27 |
|
owen |
Isn't the goal of getting the manual into Plone to be able to manage translations better somehow? |
| 20:44 |
|
atz |
chris: the google G1 phone can do CCD-camera based barcode scanning rather well |
| 20:45 |
|
atz |
google open sourced the line interpolation code, too |
| 20:48 |
|
chris |
oh cool |
| 20:49 |
|
chris |
owen: yep thats the goal |
| 20:50 |
|
chris |
but with floss manuals you can also buy the books |
| 20:50 |
|
chris |
so maybe we can do some export to flossmanuals |
| 20:51 |
|
owen |
Yeah, I was wondering about keeping them in sync |
| 20:51 |
|
chris |
yeah |
| 20:51 |
|
chris |
i guess ill wait and see how the plone one works, the flossmanuals is commendably easy |
| 20:52 |
|
chris |
atz: pretty much have a mobile library on your phone then :) |
| 20:54 |
|
chris |
ok, time to take kahu to watch some dragon boating |
| 20:55 |
|
chris |
