00:00 jcamins_away coryj: don't use nozebra.
00:00 jcamins_away Really.
00:00 jcamins_away It will make you tear your hair out.
00:00 coryj arg... bad copy/paste
00:00 coryj rebuild_zebra.pl
00:00 jcamins_away Good!
00:05 tcohen joined #koha
00:06 tcohen hi rangi
00:06 tcohen is there a way to translate "on-the-fly" strings that come from database?
00:09 tcohen i'm thinking on something like that for bug 6299
00:09 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6299 enhancement, P5, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Provide a list of authorized values for relator terms
00:14 rangi no
00:14 rangi we have resisted any on the fly because its slow
00:14 rangi but now i have meetings
00:21 coryj What's the status of ldap authentication these days?  I haven't looked at it for a couple years.
00:26 tcohen on-the-fly translation for frameworks+memcached ?
00:26 tcohen maybe we could translate complete frameworks on the fly
00:29 jcamins_away tcohen: I'm not sure that's necessary.
00:30 jcamins_away The problem as I see it is catalogue display, not cataloging.
00:30 tcohen catalogue display of relator terms?
00:30 jcamins_away Right.
00:31 jcamins_away Bug 5711.
00:31 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5711 enhancement, P5, ---, oleonard, NEW , Distinction between authors/additional authors in opac normal view (MARC21/XSLT)
00:31 jcamins_away And bug 5701.
00:31 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5701 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, m.de.rooy, RESOLVED FIXED, Distinction between authors/additional authors in staff normal view (MARC21/XSLT)
00:31 tcohen yeap, I saw those
00:32 jcamins_away I think you can safely require all catalogers at a given institution to use the same language for relator terms.
00:32 coryj I want to add an option to display a branch selector during staff client login.. even when IndependantBranches is enabled.
00:32 tcohen i thought the same, as long as we provide a translated description
00:33 tcohen in the cataloguing interface
00:33 jcamins_away tcohen: I'm not sure you need to provide a translated description.
00:33 jcamins_away The SQL files are translated.
00:33 coryj Should that pref go under Admin/Login Options or "Local Use" ?
00:33 jcamins_away coryj: I don't think that's possible.
00:34 tcohen jcamins_away: you mean it is not worth it?
00:35 jcamins_away tcohen: I think I'm probably just confusing you. I'll try to explain what I was trying to say earlier.
00:35 tcohen i think you mean we can just provide translated authorized values for each language
00:36 jcamins_away Yes.
00:36 tcohen and adjust xslt's so everything is shown properly
00:36 jcamins_away For the cataloger.
00:36 jcamins_away Right.
00:36 tcohen alright
00:37 tcohen i'll post a proposed sql file for 'en'
00:37 tcohen one question: how do I start a es-ES data/mysql dir?
00:37 jcamins_away So the XSLT could have something like: <xsl:if test="marc:subfield[@code='a'] eq 'editor'>Editor:</xsl:if>
00:38 jcamins_away tcohen: I don't know, actually.
00:38 tcohen for the xslt, exactly, that's what i was looking to solve
00:39 tcohen as for the trnaslation, i'll talk to bernardo so we can commit that translated stuff
00:39 tcohen we don't manage to know the workflow for that
00:39 tcohen i think i'll send a big patch
00:39 coryj jcamins_away: I don't see why not.  I can remove the bounding IF right now and it works.... only useful for superlibrarians tho.
00:40 jcamins_away coryj: right. It won't work for anyone else, and they'll tell you it's broken. :\
00:41 coryj In our case the staff interface is mostly used by people who can work in multiple branches.
00:41 jcamins_away Okay, my wife isn't going to be home for a while, I'm just having dinner now.
00:41 coryj french toast?
00:41 jcamins_away French toast time!
00:41 jcamins_away :D
00:41 tcohen jcamins_away: gnochi here
00:41 tcohen bye and thanks for your time!
00:41 jcamins_away tcohen: ooh, gnocchi's pretty tasty too. Maybe Friday.
00:42 coryj l8er jcamins_away
00:57 tcohen left #koha
00:58 jcamins_away Wow.
00:58 wizzyrea_away ?
00:58 jcamins_away The French toast.
00:59 wizzyrea_away lol
00:59 jcamins_away Did you *really* think I was going to talk about anything else today?
00:59 coryj everybody talking is away.  kinda like ghosts
00:59 wizzyrea_away is now known as wizzyrea`
00:59 wizzyrea` hehe
01:02 * jcamins_away is defiantly ghost-like.
01:02 jcamins_away Though less likely to melt into nothingness now that he's eaten something.
01:06 wizzyrea` so the toast was alright, eh?
01:06 wizzyrea` as magical as you'd hoped?
01:07 jcamins_away Yes!
01:07 jcamins_away :D
01:07 wizzyrea` love it when it works out like that
01:07 coryj g'nite #koha.  Time for bed
01:08 coryj jcamins_away: Think of something good for dinner tomorrow too.  Just make sure it is something I'll have the ingredients for on hand. ;)
01:10 coryj left #koha
01:10 druthb wizzyrea`!  Woot!
01:11 * druthb hugs wizzyrea`.

01:11 wizzyrea` thanx :D are you home?
01:12 druthb yep.
01:12 wizzyrea` fabulous
01:13 * jcamins_away learns outrageously offensive Russian obscenities so he can scream them at the cockroaches.
01:15 jcamins_away Better... Judeo-Tajik curses.
01:15 jcamins_away This way I'll fit in.
01:16 wizzyrea` lol
01:17 jcamins_away You laugh, but they're worse than when we moved in.
01:17 jcamins_away Well, maybe not worse.
01:17 jcamins_away But, bad.
01:19 wizzyrea` ew
01:20 jcamins_away I'll say.
01:24 wizzyrea` are you still in new york proper?
01:24 jcamins_away Yep.
01:24 jcamins_away Queens.
01:24 wizzyrea` is it known for it's cockroaches?
01:25 jcamins_away Yep.
01:25 jcamins_away Well, not Queens.
01:25 jcamins_away But New York in general.
01:27 * jcamins_away fills out the evaluation questionaire for his library school.
01:37 jcamins_away druthb++ # for making Myshkin famous!
01:37 druthb heh.

01:58 wizzyrea` thanx :)
02:04 druthb @seen Brooke
02:04 huginn druthb: Brooke was last seen in #koha 4 hours, 58 minutes, and 15 seconds ago: * Brooke is guessing shorter.

02:56 wizzyrea` mmmmmmm
02:56 Brooke :)
02:57 Brooke cranberry ftw
02:57 wizzyrea` oo
02:57 * Brooke was quite probably brainwashed in Massachusetts.
02:59 * Brooke spins the wheel to see if this aussie tank will dc every other second *again*.
03:00 wizzyrea` now I want cranberries.
03:01 Brooke make Nora post some. >:)
03:01 wizzyrea` nora is great, met her for the first time (in person) monday
03:02 Brooke you have no idea of the extent of her magical powah
03:02 wizzyrea` :)
03:02 wizzyrea` it's gotta be the hair
03:02 Brooke nora++
03:02 wizzyrea` she has wicked cool hair. srsly.
03:02 Brooke I know
03:02 * wizzyrea` gets petty for a moment
03:02 Brooke doesn't she make you want to be ginger.
03:02 wizzyrea` *nod*
03:03 wizzyrea` ginger + curly
03:03 Brooke I think it's illegal to boat and not be good looking.
03:04 Brooke right meant to be healing
03:12 Brooke ugh here come da puggers.
03:13 wizzyrea` uh oh
03:13 Brooke I don't know if that's worse than vent that's going to make me wake up the neighbours with raucous belly laughter, though.

03:52 Space_Librarian wizzyrea ++ for awesome musical taste
03:53 wizzyrea` ^.^
03:53 wizzyrea` there's another song I'm looking for, but I can't remember either the name or the artist, but I can hear it in my head it's SO ANNOYING
03:53 Space_Librarian google a line from the song.
03:53 wizzyrea` not the song, but the fact that I can't remember who or what it is
03:54 wizzyrea` that's just it, I can only think of the music!
03:54 Space_Librarian d'oh
03:55 ibeardslee hmm it
03:55 rangi http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjrUOlK2714
03:55 rangi im pretty sure thats it
03:55 ibeardslee there are a bunch if android and iphone apps that can have a good go at working out what the song is
03:56 wizzyrea` this isn't it but it's a good one
03:56 Space_Librarian yes it is...
03:57 wizzyrea` http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdUpxch4F8M
03:58 rangi emi hate nz
03:58 rangi thats alright, cos i hate them
03:58 wizzyrea` oh bother.
03:58 wizzyrea` lol
04:00 ibeardslee mutter
04:00 wizzyrea` ibeardslee: that's true, but I'm not sure my humming is up to scratch for that
04:01 ibeardslee doesn't even saying what it was, so that we could search for an alternate version
04:01 wizzyrea` un mo
04:01 wizzyrea` http://grooveshark.com/s/Breathe/2xgh4F?src=5

04:16 rangi they used to use xchat back in the day
04:16 joann it does seem to drop us off a lot
04:17 Brooke love em and leave em
04:17 rangi i think oleonard uses chatzilla and likes it
04:17 Brooke I use colloquy but with identify it isn't happy
04:17 joann (how do i poke a tongue out?)
04:17 Brooke use a taiaha
04:18 joann have to disconnect again i think
04:18 rangi tewhatewha if you want to poke things
04:18 joann i meant with keystrokes
04:18 ibeardslee :P
04:19 joann like that
04:19 joann ;)
04:19 joann i can wink
04:19 ibeardslee ':' and a 'P'
04:19 joann and look sad or happy
04:19 joann "P
04:19 joann .P
04:19 joann .p
04:19 joann '.'p
04:19 joann lol
04:19 ibeardslee :
04:19 joann :p
04:20 joann yay!
04:20 joann just learnt summat!
04:20 joann not an entirely ewasyed day
04:20 joann perhaps a few rounds of russian roulette with the bot to finish off the day
04:20 rangi has someone rearranged all your keys?
04:20 rangi :)
04:20 joann ewasyed = wasted :p
04:20 Brooke she's using a french keyboard ;)
04:21 joann i think when my batteries get low the wireless keyboard just piks letters at random
04:21 Brooke mm hmm
04:21 Brooke tell it to the judge, lady.
04:22 joann so clever people in the know:
04:22 joann the south american RFID - Koha talk at kudos
04:22 joann how 'good' is the rfid-koha?
04:23 * Brooke will say naught on the subject and goes to mutter in the corner.
04:23 * Space_Librarian laughs
04:24 rangi i think wizzyrea` is the only one here who was the talk
04:24 joann nuff said then
04:24 rangi oh if druthb is still around
04:24 rangi the rest of us werent there, so have no idea
04:24 joann wizzyrea: any thoughts on the ecuador RFID
04:24 wizzyrea` Oh, yes
04:25 wizzyrea` what was the question? I dropped out for a mo
04:25 * druthb just got back, sort of.
04:25 rangi the ecuador rfid talk
04:25 joann just hoe 'good' do you think the koha 3.x - rfid is
04:25 rangi anything good/useful
04:25 eythian they've all gone quiet...
04:25 wizzyrea` oh, I think it works well -
04:25 rangi the thing to remember is, rfid is nothign to do with ils
04:25 joann coz that may well be rangi's next mission if he chooses to accept it
04:26 wizzyrea` ^^
04:26 rangi its actually sip2
04:26 wizzyrea` ^^^^^
04:26 wizzyrea` that
04:26 rangi rfid is just reading stuff off chips
04:26 joann yep - and they have got that working smoothlythen?
04:26 rangi its what the machine then does with it that matters
04:26 wizzyrea` well I have a RFID library
04:26 wizzyrea` 3M
04:26 rangi and thats got nothing to do with RFID
04:26 joann bywater posted somewhere about payments and sip2 as well
04:26 wizzyrea` and yes, with a few very minor issues it works well with the self check and smart chute machiens
04:26 rangi thats an enhancement proposal, code doesnt exist yet
04:26 druthb bit of a language barrier, but it looked to me like they had put together a pretty cool way to not spend a gazillion dollars setting things up.
04:27 joann and that too, will be on chris's to do list once the new budget comes in
04:27 wizzyrea` yea, it looked to me like they set up with off the shelf RFID readers
04:27 joann which is very tempting.
04:27 rangi all the problems ive seen with rfid
04:27 wizzyrea` and used ILSDI to interconnect everything... is that right?
04:27 rangi is nothing to do with rfid
04:28 rangi its with some stupid proprietary software getting in the way
04:28 rangi between the rfid reader and the ils
04:28 wizzyrea` one thing that I did like about their setup
04:28 wizzyrea` they hid the security gates with lovely wood
04:28 rangi if you can make sure you dont have that stupidity, everything is easier
04:28 rangi that was the problem albany high school ran into
04:28 joann so maybe we should not go with a vendor just do it ourselves chris
04:28 druthb that's what I understood, yes, wizzyrea`
04:28 joann albany with 3M?
04:28 wizzyrea` *nod* same experience here, though the 3M software is pretty straightforward
04:29 joann i did like techlogic better than 3M
04:29 wizzyrea` we've had very few real issues with Koha (more with not-koha)
04:29 rangi or a vendor that doesnt require you to stick a windows machine anywhere in the mix
04:29 rangi soon as you do that, theres a big point of fail right away
04:30 joann nods
04:30 rangi if you can get an rfid reader
04:30 rangi that acts exactly like a barcode reader
04:30 joann wizzyrea: you reckon you could get the ecuador paper / slides?
04:30 wizzyrea` (in truth, the reader ... dangit!)
04:30 rangi ie a standard input device
04:30 wizzyrea` i'm too slow!
04:30 wizzyrea` lol
04:30 rangi then you are gravy
04:30 wizzyrea` I have them now I think, lemme look and I'll send em to ya
04:31 wizzyrea` which email addy?
04:31 wizzyrea` nm you're in my address book. Clever addressbook.
04:32 joann they all come to gmail so any one will be fine
04:32 wizzyrea` sent
04:32 wizzyrea` 4MB ppt tho
04:33 joann its not here yet - but that should get through ok
04:33 joann thanks for that
04:33 wizzyrea` sure
04:33 rangi joann: techlogic seemed ok
04:34 wizzyrea` 3M is ghastly expensive, imo
04:34 rangi but the trick is like i say, you want something that can talk straight to the ils, we dont want to have to run through some middle obfustication layer
04:34 joann yeah - thats what i liked abouttechlogic
04:34 joann its arrived !
04:34 wizzyrea` :D yay!
04:34 * Brooke hopes it's in espanol
04:34 rangi get them to sign on the dotted line saying it will work with linux, with no proprietary software needed
04:34 rangi and you are all good
04:35 rangi :)
04:35 * Space_Librarian likes this idea
04:35 * wizzyrea` idly wonders if you'd still need a proprietary-ish device driver
04:35 joann can't open it though ...
04:36 joann what is a .rar file?
04:36 wizzyrea` it's a rar, you'd need winrar. let me see what I can do about that
04:36 wizzyrea` gimme a min
04:36 rangi you wouldnt need it
04:36 rangi they might force you to have it anyway tho
04:36 joann i sent it to you too chris
04:36 rangi joann: i doubt catalyst wants to get into the hardware game
04:37 joann true
04:37 joann i'll download winrar liz - dont worry
04:37 rangi or want to support custom made rfid solution .. but we would be happy to go, 'that wont work'
04:37 rangi or 'that will work'
04:37 wizzyrea` k, lmk if you have trouble, cuz I'm going ahead and unrar then zipping it
04:38 rangi and set up koha to talk to the system you get
04:38 rangi remember jack from kapiti?
04:38 rangi dont do that
04:38 joann no - i've got it open now
04:39 wizzyrea` cool
04:39 eythian wizzyrea`: why zip it at all?
04:40 rangi if its powerpoint its probably 83934239234 gb unzipped
04:41 wizzyrea` nah, it's got 3 files
04:41 eythian ah
04:41 wizzyrea` a video and a ppt
04:41 wizzyrea` and a 3rd unidentified something or other
04:41 rangi virus
04:41 rangi :)
04:41 wizzyrea` well it's pptx, so yea, that's not far from the truth
04:41 joann i've looked atthe powerpoint and didn't self destruct
04:41 wizzyrea` :)
04:42 joann ok - i can only 'see' the powerpoint but if you unzip and send me the paper  i would appreciate that
04:43 eythian I love how every time someone sends me data, they tweak the export options to make it different in some subtle way.
04:44 wizzyrea` that was one of the tenets of Ruth's presentation
04:44 wizzyrea` "write down how you did it, and do it that way for every extract"
04:44 Space_Librarian which looked good - I've read the slides and notes.
04:44 eythian where are they available?
04:44 wizzyrea` it was very good
04:44 Space_Librarian should be on Ruth's blog now?
04:45 eythian where is that?
04:45 wahanui i heard that was too complicated
04:45 Space_Librarian http://www.librarygeekgirl.net/downloads/
04:45 Brooke yeah clearly Ruth's preso was the best.
04:46 eythian cool ta
04:46 * druthb hides.
04:46 wizzyrea` dunno, galen's was pretty awesome too -- who else do you know that can make cataloging compelling
04:46 Brooke can't hide til August
04:46 Brooke I know where you live, theoretically.
04:46 Space_Librarian he made cataloguing compelling?! This I *need* to see...
04:47 wizzyrea` and ian's git preso was pretty great
04:47 joann i played with prezi once and i am nowhere near creative enough to use it (sadly)
04:47 joann i saw ina's git one
04:47 joann ian's
04:47 Brooke cataloguing is always compelling
04:48 Space_Librarian well...
04:48 Brooke surely you must be compelled to do it
04:48 * wizzyrea` stares slantily at Brooke
04:48 Space_Librarian with whips driving you, yes.
04:48 wizzyrea` s/compelling/interesting
04:48 Brooke not my fault they chained me to a desk and made me do spanish cataloguing against me will.
04:48 wizzyrea` haha
04:48 Brooke I wasn't even paid!
04:48 * Brooke cries from PTSD
04:49 Space_Librarian it didn't kill you, so ergo, it made you stronger...
04:49 Space_Librarian with razor sharp wit...
04:49 Space_Librarian ;)
04:49 Brooke nope, that's the fencing
04:49 Space_Librarian lol.
04:49 Brooke I keep tellin' meself I'm not meant to trash talk in fencing
04:51 Brooke I *lead* Dave at one point.
04:51 Brooke People were shocked.
04:53 Brooke then I skivved off tonight
04:53 Brooke coz I'm lazay
04:54 eythian druthb: interesting differences there compared to how I do it, although nothing too fundamental.
04:55 eythian Mostly, I refuse to touch spreadsheets except as viewers, and I try to get all incoming data as close to CSV as they can get it and then use a handful of scripts to chop everything up and import into Koha/produce MARC.
04:56 Brooke dahmer scripts?
04:57 wizzyrea` koha = the freezer where you keep the preserved head of your library data?
04:57 druthb eythian:  Much as I flatly refuse to use MARCEdit except as a viewer, really.
04:57 wizzyrea` that may be the most gruesome metaphor ever for koha
04:57 eythian druthb: pretty much. I refuse to use that because it's not free software :)
04:57 rangi eythian++
04:58 eythian (and also I don't really need it)
04:58 * Brooke blames it on raiding late at night instead of sleeping.
05:00 eythian http://paste.koha-community.org/35 <-- that's what my migration scripts end up looking like.
05:01 Space_Librarian Brooke: raiding?
05:01 Brooke a yep
05:01 Brooke Omnotron
05:01 Space_Librarian you don't.
05:01 * Brooke needs click shiny cds more often.
05:02 Space_Librarian really?

05:03 Brooke and if I wasn't such a jackarse, my data would be anonymised.

12:53 kf for fixing that duplicate bug so fast :)

13:20 nengard k
13:21 nengard it was my imagination :) gonna put an enhancement in there ;)
13:21 kf today is enh day :)
13:21 kf magnuse has been busy too
13:23 nengard yesterday i exported my librarything collection and imported it to koha!! :)
13:23 nengard now my test system has my real library
13:23 oleonard Does it export items too?
13:23 nengard no
13:23 nengard I had a few steps:
13:23 nengard 1. export from LT
13:24 nengard 2. import to koha
13:24 nengard 3. export from koha
13:24 nengard 4. open in marcedit
13:24 nengard 5. add items
13:24 nengard 6. clean original koha import
13:24 nengard 7. rebuild zebra
13:24 nengard 8. import marc file with items to koha
13:24 nengard The reason I did it that way was cause the LT file wouldn't open in marcedit cause of errors in the file that koha just ignored :)
13:25 kf cool!
13:25 magnuse nengard: what format did you export from LT?
13:25 nengard I used the 001 as my barcode (since it's a fake system) and the 050ab as my call number
13:25 kf can you put that on the wiki somewhere?
13:25 kf I would love to try that sometim
13:25 nengard magnus the first one ... fuzzy i think
13:25 nengard kf sure can
13:25 kf is there a trick to add a lot of items at once?
13:25 kf wit marcedit?
13:25 nengard it's easy peasy
13:25 nengard you do add field and add a 952 with you $a, $b, $2, $y
13:26 magnuse having that on the wiki would be super cool!
13:26 nengard and then you can do swap field data to pull the call number and barcode
13:26 nengard I'll gladly share
13:26 nengard it was a bit frustrating, so I'd love to help you all :) hehe
13:26 magnuse nengard++
13:27 nengard of course this only works for a not real library - otherwise you have to go in and add real barcodes to all of the items
13:28 kf nengard++
13:28 * kf has her books in libarything too
13:28 * magnuse too
13:29 magnuse and i'm toying with the idea of offering free koha installations for personal use to nordic library people...
13:29 nengard magnuse LT only exports in USMARC right now - fyi
13:29 nengard http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]raryThing_to_Koha
13:30 nengard will beef it up as I have time ;)
13:30 magnuse ah yes, but usmarc is probably similar to marc21 (which is similar to normarc)?

13:51 f3ew Is there a way to dumb down the Koha interface a lot?
13:52 f3ew The use case in this case is a corporate in-house library, without the need for MARC or book sizes
13:52 hdl hi magnuse
13:52 f3ew and a very part time librarian
13:53 wizzyrea yep, you can use a very simple framework
13:53 wizzyrea with only the fields you need
13:55 gmcharlt f3ew: in particular, the fast-add framework is a good starting point for a simple one to use
13:57 * f3ew googles
13:58 jwagner f3ew, you can also remove some of the clutter from staff logins by using granular permissions and not assigning permissions for modules your staff don't need.  For example, if you aren't using acquisitions or serials, no need to have those modules visible.
13:58 magnuse f3ew: http://git.koha-community.org/[…]ework.sql;hb=HEAD
13:59 f3ew jwagner, more of a need "ISBN, Book title, Author, quantity, date of purchase, price" and nothing else
13:59 nengard oleonard++
13:59 jwagner Yes, that would be the framework setup, then.  I was just suggesting other areas to simplify.

15:01 oleonard What's all this about submodules?
15:02 magnus_away oleonard: http://www.kernel.org/pub/soft[…]it-submodule.html
15:02 magnus_away "Submodules allow foreign repositories to be embedded within a dedicated subdirectory of the source tree, always pointed at a particular commit."
15:04 magnus_away ?
15:04 * magnus_away is really away now
15:06 gmcharlt oleonard: well, upshot of the discussion on that bug is that *requiring* use of a git submodule would make Koha difficult to package again
15:07 gmcharlt IOW, it really needs to be based on a packaged version of jeditable, or at least a version we can stick in the Koha tree and release that way, not on a link to a git repository
15:07 wizzyrea man, i don't wanna go there. we should not go backwards
15:07 gmcharlt i.e., the discussion (or argument) is about what needs to happen to make that dependency packageable
15:07 wizzyrea packaging should be getting easier, not harder.
15:10 Guillaume left #koha
15:11 gmcharlt also, would need a look
15:12 gmcharlt jeditable has not been receiving much in the way of updates for the past couple years
15:12 gmcharlt so that either means that it's generic enough that it's "done"
15:12 gmcharlt or that it's not particularly active
15:12 gmcharlt either way, we'd want to make sure that we're not locking ourselves into an old version of jQuery by using it
15:16 kf gmcharlt: you should add that to the bug I think
15:17 oleonard In Jeditable's favor, the author still responds to comments on his site. there was a commit in January, although a minor one.
15:17 gmcharlt oleonard: yeah, I'm not dismissing jeditable out of hand, and it has a good rating
15:17 wizzyrea ok, is it J editable or Jedi Table? Because if it's Jedi Table, then by default it should go in on pure awesome alone. (I kid)
15:18 gmcharlt but (from my POV), without having actually looked at it yet, dunno if it's being maintained enough to not break when we want to adopt jQuery 1.5+
15:18 paul_p Jedi Table ? DarkVador chair ? :D
15:18 wizzyrea :D
15:19 gmcharlt do the table legs double as light sabers?
15:20 wizzyrea jedi table is suspended by the force alone
15:20 oleonard Don't be silly, you can plainly see the Jedi don't use a table: http://meltingpot.fortunecity.[…]06/councilxxx.jpg

15:22 wizzyrea mmm tasty you are!

15:23 wizzyrea hehehe
15:24 wizzyrea sorry, I didn't mean to derail that conversation, back to srs business

15:51 coryj Another 1/2 pot of coffee and I'll be coherent.
15:51 jwagner oleonard, the bug report you referred to on the listserv is Bug 5199, correct?
15:51 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5199 enhancement, P5, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW , Renewals do not add branchcode to statistics table
15:52 oleonard Yes
15:52 jwagner OK, thanks.  I hadn't seen that one fly by....
15:52 oleonard It's been a bug in Koha forever
15:53 nengard would love to see that one fixed
15:53 slef random question: why is it OPAC username on the Edit Patron screen when it works on the librarian interface?
15:53 nengard no clue
15:53 nengard it's very confusing to librarians
15:53 nengard I'm a-ok with changing it to just 'username'

16:13 mib_2swanq hi koha community :)
16:14 mib_2swanq I have one little question about koha and marc frameworks.
16:14 Oak we only entertain big questions here
16:14 nengard got me two +1 so I'll write up that patch now
16:15 mib_2swanq it can be big depending on your answer :P
16:16 mib_2swanq i've created one subfield 942$n - Suppress to suppress some records from OPAC
16:16 Oak left #koha
16:17 mib_2swanq the records with 0 appears in the OPAC, with 1 don't appear
16:17 mib_2swanq the Zebra indexation works fine
16:18 mib_2swanq the omission value is 1 (after creation the records doesn't appear in OPAC)
16:19 hdl left #koha
16:20 mib_2swanq now I wanted to omit the subfield in the default model, so I've changed the value of the managed tab to ignored
16:20 mib_2swanq but with that change the records are created with no 942$n subfield filled
16:21 mib_2swanq my doubt is how to omit the 942$n subfield from default model and it be filled by omission with value 1?
16:21 brendan_ left #koha
16:24 mib_2swanq no one?
16:24 wahanui it has been said that no one is denying that biblibre is doing good work here - it just seems odd to me that one of the biggest companies should introduce new "things" that break old "things" that a lot of people still want...
16:24 slef sorry
16:24 slef I'm a bit busy today.
16:25 nengard slef, patch written to solve your issue :)
16:25 wizzyrea wahanui: forget no one
16:25 wahanui wizzyrea: I forgot no one
16:25 slef mib_2swanq: I'm doing this without looking, but don't you want hidden rather than ignored?
16:25 * slef looks it up
16:26 mib_2swanq i've tried all types of hidden (-9...9) but by some reason after creation the subfield appears in the record edition
16:27 mib_2swanq bu i can try again
16:27 slef ah yeah, the problem is defaulting to 1
16:28 slef grml
16:28 mib_2swanq grml?
16:28 slef like grumble but quicker
16:29 slef I'm not a librarian and definitely not a cataloguer and dislike being reminded of my inadequacy ;-)
16:29 slef so what are you putting for Managed in tab, Default value and Hidden?
16:31 mib_2swanq now i'm trying 9 (managed in tab), 1 default value, hidden -5...
16:31 mib_2swanq I my problem is solved looool
16:32 slef anyway, I've got to go vote. Let's see if nengard or wizzyrea understand this <vbg>
16:32 slef nengard++ for the username patch

17:27 Ccorrales joined #koha
17:28 mib_2swanq so it's better to turn it on if i want to put one reserve on problematic after 2 days
17:29 mib_2swanq after check in...
17:29 oleonard mib_2swanq: Are you referring to the holds awaiting pickup report?
17:31 mib_2swanq what i need to have: if a item is checked out the others patrons can reserve it, after checked in the patron in first on the queue have 2 days to get the book
17:32 oleonard mib_2swanq: The ReservesNeedReturns is unrelated to your requirement I think
17:32 oleonard See ReservesMaxPickUpDelay instead
17:32 oleonard That should be set to 2
17:33 oleonard And I believe there is a cron job that needs to run in order to automatically cancel holds
17:33 mib_2swanq yes... I have the cronjob and the system preference set to 2
17:33 mib_2swanq it's all i need
17:33 mib_2swanq ?

17:47 mib_2swanq hummm ok... but I can see that there is a patch...
17:48 oleonard A very minor patch which doesn't do that much to fix the problem
17:48 oleonard (and I say that as the patch author)
17:50 mib_2swanq this is a problem, because the library is using the patron detail page for check in and i need to trigger the holds
17:50 oleonard You can't, not unless you fix that bug.
17:50 oleonard You have to use returns.pl
17:53 mib_2swanq :/ if the renewscript.pl and return.pl shoudn't be that different

19:26 oleonard The item's home branch seems least relevant to me since it could have been checked out from any branch
19:27 cait they bought the item and made it available for others - why not count the renewal for them?
