gmcharlt: can we add a product koha-maintenance to bugzilla ? so that ppl can report all the bugs on that product directly. |
13:48 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Or should we add it in koha 3.0.X_stable ? |
13:48 |
|
gmcharlt |
what is the purpose of this tree? |
13:49 |
|
hdl_laptop |
or should I send a message with my email ? and say spam me if you find any bug ? |
13:49 |
|
gmcharlt |
if it just for temporary testing of changes before merging into the main repo's 3.0.x branch |
13:49 |
|
hdl_laptop |
testing only and bug report. |
13:49 |
|
hdl_laptop |
giving my email could be ok then. |
13:49 |
|
hdl_laptop |
I agree. |
14:57 |
|
hdl_laptop |
gmcharlt: thx for your suggestion |
14:58 |

17:01 |
|
brendan |
definitely going to join the reforestation groups once this done |
17:05 |
|
pianohacker |
Yeah, I've seen the amount of work they have to do here in CO after a major forest fire |
17:06 |
|
pianohacker |
erosion control is a biggie |
17:07 |

17:12 |
|
atz |
it's not as good as the ones from last year |
17:12 |
|
atz |
when there were actual hotpoint and emergency notices like |
17:13 |
|
brendan |
I'm out towards the airport, ucsb |
17:13 |
|
atz |
"Fire is now over this section of road. Do not attempt passage!" |
17:13 |
|
brendan |
last night I saw flames that were about 100 feet high |
17:13 |
|
atz |
total insanity |
17:14 |
|
brendan |
the 101 is closed through the center of town... atleast all the exits are |
17:50 |
|
brendan |
hey atz pianohacker -- you're welcome to stop by and roast some hotdogs |
17:50 |
|
brendan |
I know wrong time for a joke... but I couldn't resist |
17:51 |
|
pianohacker |
how ghoulish :) |
17:59 |
|
gmcharlt |
brendan: best wishes to you - sorry that you're caught in the middle of this |
17:59 |
|
gmcharlt |

|
wizzyrea1 |
brendan: you should come to kansas, only tornadoes here |
18:56 |
|
brendan |
thanks gmcharlt |
18:57 |
|
brendan |
wizzyrea1 kansas is a little too flat for me. |
19:02 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
my part of kansas isnt flat :P |
19:03 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
but if you want mountains you *are* out of luck |
19:26 |
|
chris |
brendan: youve made the news in NZ now http://www.stuff.co.nz/world/2[…]re-destroys-homes |
19:27 |
|
brendan |
the winds are supposed to pick up at 2pm -- an hour and half from now.... |
19:27 |
|
brendan |
http://www.independent.com/new[…]-without-warning/ |
19:28 |
|
brendan |
from the local santa barbara paper... at the bottom there is a link to look at the fire live. |
19:29 |
|
brendan |
chris - not to good if that is popping up in NZ |
19:30 |
|
chris |
yeah, especially as we are having our biggest news day in a long time here |
19:31 |
|
chris |
the 29th policeman ever killed in the line of duty was killed yesterday |
19:31 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
ever? |
19:31 |
|
chris |
yeah |
19:32 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
as in, since policing started in nz? |
19:32 |
|
chris |
yep, so 150 years or somehting |
19:32 |
|
atz |
NZ is not known for violent crime... outside of rugby and soccer |
19:32 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
wow, and lol |
19:32 |
|
chris |
they have the nutjub who did it surrounded, but he still has a gun |
19:33 |
|
chris |
(ex territorial soldier ... like your guys national guard) |
19:33 |
|
gmcharlt |
:( |
19:34 |
|
chris |
our police don't carry guns |
19:34 |
|
chris |
(not on routine patrol anyway) |
19:37 |
|
chris |
but im gonna have to look at this story all day .. so on to less depressing things nz vs australia in rugby league tonight |
19:37 |
|
chris |
should be a good game, first time we have played them since we beat them in the world cup last year (huge upset ..we beat australia in rugby union a lot, they almost always beat us in league) |
19:38 |
|
brendan |
geez keep us updated chris -- about the nutjob.. not the nutjob's playing rugby |
19:42 |
|
chris |
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWgLLEBUPLQ <--- there is always a lot of feeling when we play australia |
19:42 |
|
chris |
especially when they mouth off during the haka |
19:55 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
rhcl: you made us so happy today |
19:58 |
|
pianohacker |
wizzyrea1: what'd he do? |
20:07 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
several things, tracked down our holds bugs, fixed our amazon problem (with gmcharlt) |
20:07 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
was a good day :) |
20:07 |
|
gmcharlt |
wizzyrea1: ryan, you mean? |
20:08 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
yes... actually |
20:08 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
runs and hides |
20:14 |
|
rhcl |
I think rhcl and ryan are different. :) RHCL = Rolling Hills Consolidated Library, i.e. "Me" - Greg |
20:15 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
idk why I did that |
20:15 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
i blame it on proximity to whining children (home with a sick kid today) |
20:16 |
|
pianohacker |
ouch, sorry |
20:16 |
|
pianohacker |
Do you know what's wrong? |
20:16 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
lol, hopefully the normal flue |
20:16 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
flu* |
20:16 |
|
rhcl |
Are you having a flu party? |
20:17 |

rhcl |

20:17 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
Ha, no |
20:17 |
|
pianohacker |
That's horrifying |
20:17 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
one might argue that sending your child to daycare is as good as the same thing |
20:18 |
|
rhcl |
Stupidest idea I can think of, and I never had thought of such a think until I read that article today. |
20:18 |
|
rhcl |
sed s/think/thing |
20:18 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
it did actually occur to me, a la chickenpox parties |
20:18 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
and I kind of see their logic |
20:18 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
but cripes. |
20:18 |
|
rhcl |
I'd never heard of chickenpox parties either. |
20:19 |
|
pianohacker |
Gah, chickenpox |
20:19 |
|
pianohacker |
I have a couple of dents in my face from a horrible chickenpox infection when I was younger |
20:19 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
yea, they vaccinate for that now |
20:19 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
if you're down with the whole vaccine thing |
20:20 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
(big 'ol can of worms in some circles) |
20:20 |
|
pianohacker |
yeah |
20:21 |
|
rhcl |
Yea, well, I read an article a while back about a few worms in your intestines being good for you-boosts your immune system or something. |
20:21 |
|
pianohacker |
"Tapeworms - for a slimmer, more attractive you!" |
20:24 |
|
rhcl |
Ah, just feed 'em a few extra strips of bacon every morning. |
20:25 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
rhcl: yea, the theory is that in people with severe allergies, tapeworms keep their overactive immune systems busy so it doesn't attack the person (causing alllergies) |
20:25 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
supposedly this works better than most traditional medicine |
20:26 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
it's just theory though >.> |
20:29 |
|
rhcl |
Well, robins eat worms all the time, and I'v never seen a robin with allergies, so it must work. |
20:30 |
|
pianohacker |
Ah, a man of schiensh |
20:30 |
|
gmcharlt |
could one tell if a robins sneezes? :) |
20:30 |
|
pianohacker |

21:39 |
|
wizzyrea1 |

21:39 |
|
brendan |
yup. from the front |
21:39 |
|
wizzyrea1 |
wow |
21:40 |
|
chris |
freaky eh |
21:41 |
|
brendan |

|
chris |

23:38 |
|
brendan |

23:40 |
|
chris |

pianohacker |
good night, #koha |
01:07 |
|
richard |
bex? |
01:07 |
|
richard |
oops, wrong # |
01:19 |
|
chris |
richard: is bex working for katipo again? |
01:22 |
|
richard |
she's doing a bit of contract work |
01:22 |
|
chris |
sweet, say hi from me |
01:22 |
|
richard |
sort of easing back into the work force |
01:22 |
|
richard |
will do |
02:37 |
|
SelfishMan |
hmm...I've just been informed that FOSS solutions like koha are a bad thing for libraries because they aren't backed by deep pockets so they will never be standards compliant. |
02:38 |
|
SelfishMan |
I think they were really stretching with that "reason" |
02:39 |
|
chris |
lol |
02:39 |
|
chris |
i think evergreen and koha are probably more standards compliant that the rest of the proprietary systems put together :) |
02:39 |
|
chris |
if we talk about actual standards, not jsut standards vendors made up |
02:42 |
|
SelfishMan |
Yes, they were nice enough to inform me that koha will never be SIP compliant |
02:42 |
|
chris |
awesome, did you tell them SIP isnt a standard |
02:42 |
|
chris |
? |
02:42 |
|
SelfishMan |
My response: "Umm...there are several people interfacing your product with koha via SIP right now" |
02:42 |
|
chris |
SIP is only a standard in the same way .doc is a standard |
02:43 |
|
SelfishMan |
It's a defacto standard |
02:43 |
|
chris |
yeah |
02:44 |
|
chris |
way way back in 2002 3M were wanting to get their stuff working with Koha .. theyve been taking it seriously since then, and SIP is their baby |
02:44 |
|
chris |
it just took a library to actually ask for |
02:45 |
|
chris |
:) |
02:45 |
|
SelfishMan |
My head almost imploded when they told me this stuff |
02:45 |
|
chris |
this was a selfcheck vendor? |
02:45 |
|
SelfishMan |
Nah, it was someone at our state library |
02:46 |
|
chris |
ahhh |
02:46 |
|
chris |
the same illformed opinions often come out of our national library too |
02:47 |
|
chris |
i often get "koha is only for very small libraries" |
02:47 |
|
chris |
which i usually combat that, its running in consortia bigger than all the libraries in this country |
02:48 |
|
SelfishMan |
I deal with a lot of businesses, both large and small, and I get this kind of resistance to FOSS everywhere |
02:49 |
|
chris |
its interesting, there is very little resistance to FOSS in the private sector in nz |
02:49 |
|
SelfishMan |
Once I deploy it and show them the numbers the only question they have is why they waited so long to switch |
02:49 |
|
chris |
public sector is a different story |
02:50 |
|
SelfishMan |
I'll deploy and support whatever platform best solves a clients problem but there is a lot of fear out there |
02:50 |
|
chris |
*nod* |
02:52 |
|
reed |
never in my life have I heard the 'can't be standard compliant' one |
02:52 |
|
chris |
yeah that's a new one for me too |
02:52 |
|
reed |
have heard the opposite |
02:53 |
|
reed |
given that the Internet exists |
02:53 |
|
reed |
hard to really make the case |
