is everyone free to add pros and cons to the comparison chart of foundations? http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?[…]aheldbyfoundation |
| 00:17 |
|
chris |
i reckon so |
| 00:17 |
|

its a wiki :) |

ifla does not really look like it does what we would be looking for in a foundation |
| 00:57 |
|
chris |
even temporary? |
| 00:57 |
|
chris |
(i agree mind you, just playing devils advocate) |
| 00:57 |
|
chris_n2 |
the closest thing I can find is a "Special Interest Group" dealing w/libraries and web 2.0: http://www.ifla.org/en/libraries-and-web2dotzero |
| 00:58 |
|
chris |
*nod* |

it really does not have any sort of mechanism that I can find whereby 'we' would 'join' as a community/committee/etc |
| 00:59 |
|
chris |
i dont think it is even something the would be interested in doing |

agrees |
| 01:00 |
|
chris_n2 |
their purpose appears very broad and much more related to the overall library picture |
| 01:00 |
|
chris |
yeah |
| 01:03 |
|
chris_n2 |
they would be more like the universe and we the planet.... whereas SPI, HLT are more like the sun and we the planet.... in the koha foundation scenario, however, the universe revolves around the planet - koha... ;-) |

just as soon as somebody contributes an Asterisk plugin |

funny you should say that |

that was something reed wanted to do |
| 01:16 |
|
gmcharlt |
well, what's he waiting for!? slef's phones need answering ;) |
| 01:17 |
|
slef |
hrm, some clients aren't happy when they get a simple voicemail... wonder what they'd think if an LMS answered :-D |
| 01:18 |

another public vendor repo hits the wiki http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?[…]lopment:git_repos |
| 01:22 |
|
chris_n2 |
cool... more pressure |
| 01:26 |
|
chris_n2 |
it's sort of funny: the patches for correcting cutter number splitting will probably hit the main repo before they are applied to our production koha server locally. |
| 01:26 |
|
chris |
hehe |
| 01:26 |

yep, some nice patches coming in from ptfs europe |
| 01:37 |

chris_n2 |
any thoughts on a line for crontab git fetch && git rebase for multiple branches? |
| 01:37 |
|
chris_n2 |
ie. current branch is 'some-work' but I want crontab to rebase 'master' and 'some-work' |
| 01:38 |
|
chris |
ahhh |
| 01:38 |
|
chris |
id prolly write a bash script |
| 01:38 |
|
chris |
and call that from crontab |
| 01:40 |
|
chris_n2 |
I think 'git rebase origin some-work' && 'git rebase origin master' would do, but leave me in 'master' |
| 01:40 |
|
chris_n2 |
script is probably best, as you suggest |
| 01:42 |
|
chris_n2 |
what might really be cool would be to have a hook to call a perl tidy on commit |
| 01:43 |
|
chris |
if we start that practice, it should be right after a release, cos whitespace changes make diffs really hard to read |
| 01:43 |
|
slef |
chris: enjoy the end of my spi-private email. |
| 01:43 |
|
chris |
but any new files, perltidy away :) |

| 01:44 |
|

ah yes |

think shell scripting: why does "echo $(`/usr/lib/git-core/git-branch`)" result in "line 2: 0001-Bug-2500-Correcting-incorrect-splitting-of-cutter-nu.patch: command not found" (the failed attempt to execute the first file in the dir as a command???)? |
| 02:18 |
|
chris_n2 |
echo `/usr/lib/git-core/git-branch` results in a listing of the current directory.... weirdness indeed |
| 02:35 |
|
chris_n2 |
here's a cool git prompt: http://www.bramschoenmakers.nl/en/node/624 |
| 02:36 |
|
chris_n2 |
displays branch and status in your shell prompt |

chris: I have been having some trouble with my new website |
| 04:23 |
|
chris |
i am glad pointed out that the redhat analogy is false (well 2 people did) |
| 04:23 |
|
thd |
chris: perhaps you have some insight into my problem |
| 04:24 |
|
chris |
fire away |
| 04:24 |
|
thd |
after several problems, I know seem to have some proxying stuck in Apache. |
| 04:25 |
|
chris |
right |
| 04:25 |
|
thd |
that is after I remove the proxying and attempt to redirect a subdomain it still points to the same proxied service. |
| 04:25 |
|
chris |
hmm |
| 04:25 |
|
thd |
I restart Apache and have no effect |
| 04:26 |
|
chris |
tried a full stop-start |
| 04:26 |
|
chris |
? |
| 04:26 |
|
thd |
I cannot remember but I will try that now |
| 04:26 |
|
chris |
i also find |
| 04:26 |
|
chris |
curl -I url |
| 04:26 |
|
chris |
handy |
| 04:27 |
|
chris |
for trying to spot what is going on |
| 04:28 |
|
chris |
http://code.google.com/p/gource/ <--andrew works with me .. and we tried this on koha git .. its way way cool ;) |
| 04:32 |
|
thd |
chris: reading the headers tells me nothing other than what I already know that the Apache proxy is still redirecting to a commented out redirect. |
| 04:33 |
|
chris |
well it does tell you its not your browser doing it |
| 04:33 |
|
thd |
Oh I see. |
| 04:33 |
|
chris |
which often it will keep doing, even if you dont want it too |
| 04:33 |
|
chris |
curl doesnt remember, browsers do |
| 04:33 |
|
thd |
So yes I have confirmed that the problem is not in the browser. |
| 04:33 |
|
chris |
cool |
| 04:34 |
|
thd |
So then where can the problem be. |
| 04:34 |
|
chris |
hmm, the access logs confirm it going through the virtual host you expect it to be? |
| 04:35 |
|
thd |
I think that it could not be otherwise but I had fallen asleep the night before last when I was about to check the logs properly. |
| 04:36 |
|
chris |
thats the only other thing i can think og |

call it cookie.js |

then add to one of the sysprefs to tell it to be loaded |

Since I've been asked about it several times, I'll say it here: PTFS will be opening a public git repo for our works-in-progress in the next few days. |

| 13:19 |
|
hdl_laptop |
and sent the patch |
| 13:24 |
|
gmcharlt |
hdl_laptop: looks OK on first glance, but is there going to be an issue stripping away a UNIMARC 100 that presumably contains the UTF8 flag? |
| 13:26 |
|
* gmcharlt |
is also thinking that we could fairly easily get rid of ModItemFromMarc entirely |
| 13:27 |
|
gmcharlt |
add just have a routine that parses a MARC item tag to a hashref and use only ModItem to do the actual updating |

XSLT question -- how do you escape a character? I'm putting together a string in XSLT (continuing the SFX link thing) that includes an ampersand, and XSLT does not like the ampersand at all. I've tried \& but that doesn't work. What's the escape code? |

reads the scrollback, and laughs at wizzyrea's way of speech. "skeeving people off?" :P |
| 15:54 |

well I didn't think it was quite appropriate to "piss them off" |

come on, you don't find skeeve to be absolutely conveying what I meant, regardless of it's actual existence as a word? |
| 16:44 |

jdavidb |
Oh, absolutely, wizzyrea...I knew exactly what you meant. Just never heard it before. :P |
| 16:44 |

my husband always laughs at me because I was an english major... but I always make up words |

not the most prosaic history, but complete for sure |

have any of you ever coded a feature for koha that wasn't asked for by librarians? |
| 17:10 |
|
jdavidb |
Not a full feature, no. |
| 17:14 |
|
jdavidb |
I've fixed a number of dodgy things that bugged me that librarians wouldn't have ever known about (like the annoying message out of rebuild_zebra that I patched last week). But no big features. |
| 17:21 |
|
wizzyrea |
i'm not talking about bugfixes, but features |
| 17:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
like adding a "checkin all" button or local holds |
| 17:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
ok, I just wanted to ask |
| 17:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
because there is an implication elsewhere that the community codes features based on personal desire, and not for the benefit or at the direction of librarians |
| 17:23 |
|
wizzyrea |
which I find to be laughable |
| 17:25 |

Agreed. It would be pointless to do it in a library system |

"Second, many of these developers are straight from the library community and the developer orientation – to the extent that you can imply it’s a dominating community feature – is and was needed due to the limited leadership and vision coming out of the library land to make sensible technology investment decisions. Without them, you can’t build something from nothing, and that libraries are somehow divorced from this process is ludicrous. You |

Hi brendan |
| 20:06 |
|
brendan |
afternoon jwagner |
| 20:09 |
|
jwagner |
Haven't had a chance to look at that diacritic stuff. In my "someday" pile for now.... |
| 20:09 |
|
hdl_laptop |
equinox++ |
| 20:10 |
|
hdl_laptop |
jwagner: is there a bug you are referring to ? |
| 20:10 |
|
jwagner |
No, just an email conversation I was having with brendan. |
| 20:10 |
|
jwagner |
Sorry for the confusion. |
| 20:10 |
|
brendan |
hdl_laptop -- I was having a little trouble with searching in OPAC |
| 20:11 |
|
brendan |
for items with the diacritic é |
| 20:12 |
|
brendan |
I thought that if I typed the author name danielou -- I should get back results with " daniélou" |
| 20:12 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Is this composed characters ? |
| 20:12 |
|
jwagner |
And I've been having the same problems -- was hoping to pick his brain if he'd come up with anything. |
| 20:12 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Or NFC ? |
| 20:12 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Or NFD ? |
| 20:12 |
|
brendan |
not sure what you mean composed characters -- |
| 20:13 |
|
gmcharlt |
brendan: composed means that a character with a diacritic is represented as a single Unicode code point |
| 20:13 |
|
gmcharlt |
e.g., the character E WITH ACUTE |
| 20:13 |
|
jwagner |
In my tests I've been cutting & pasting from text which had the diacritic. Haven't tried composing one (you mean typing it on the keyboard with the Alt-whatever code?) |
| 20:13 |
|
gmcharlt |
decomposed means that it represented as two separate Unicode code points |
| 20:13 |
|
gmcharlt |
E, followed by COMBINING CHARACTER ACUTE |
| 20:14 |
|
* gmcharlt |
isn't shouting, just taking it from the Unicode doc, btw ;) |
| 20:14 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Maybe you should try and test word-phrase-utf8.chr from fr then. |
| 20:14 |
|
brendan |
hdl_laptop that is where I ended up |
| 20:14 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Another hint would be to use icu-chains |
| 20:14 |
|
brendan |
was looking at the file - then got distracted |
| 20:16 |
|
brendan |
thanks will add the icu-chains (when I get back to that project) |
| 20:16 |
|
brendan |
I mean add looking at them :) |
| 20:16 |
|
jwagner |
I remember seeing somewhere a config file where you could enter stuff like search the e with & without the acute -- is that the same file? |
| 20:16 |
|
gmcharlt |
yes |
| 20:17 |
|
jwagner |
OK, it's on my "look-at" pile when I dig out from under all the current stuff. |
| 20:17 |
|
brendan |
yup -- so the defaults all look like that is already set |
| 20:18 |

it only worked after we changed indexing to icu |
| 20:18 |
|
jwagner |
That's Usum with the sideways paren over the um part (sorry, don't know the names of all the diacritics) |
| 20:18 |
|
cait |
i think you cant use this mentioned config file with icu |
| 20:19 |
|
jwagner |
Do you mean you're using something other than Zebra for your indexing? |
| 20:19 |
|
gmcharlt |
cait: right |
| 20:19 |
|
cait |
zebra with icu |
| 20:19 |
|
cait |
using a file from gmcharlt I think (when I remember correctly this time) |
| 20:20 |
|
gmcharlt |
jwagner: ICU = C library that handles character normalization |
| 20:20 |
|
gmcharlt |
Zebra is able to use it |
| 20:20 |
|
jwagner |
Where do you set that up? |

i wish that the supporters could show the same level of intellectual honesty |

(supporters of the fork that is) |

chris |
for librarians, they seem spectularly unable to do basic research |
| 23:13 |
|
chris |
labouring under the delusion liblime created koha, and that no one else ever has had anything to do with it |
| 23:14 |
|
chris |
and that even if they had, it would be without any input from libraries/librarians |
| 23:14 |
|
Jo |
well liblime kminds encouraged that myth |
| 23:14 |
|
Jo |
hence why we had to stick to our guns with the code4lib story |
| 23:14 |
|
chris |
of course, but its not hard to disprove with some basic research |
| 23:15 |
|
chris |
its also telling that the biggest detractors of the community, are those that have chosen never to become involved |
| 23:17 |
|
chris |
anyone who resorts to calling someone a socialist as if it was an insult, probably has a tenuous grasp on reality anyway |
| 23:17 |
|
