00:22 * dcook just noticed the "Source" link on CPAN...*facepalm*
00:54 jcamins Those orange-mint sugar cookies were so good that now I'm making rosemary sugar cookies.
00:54 dcook Intriguing...
00:54 dcook I know I like rosemary in bread but cookies?
00:54 jcamins You may be envious.
00:55 dcook May I?
00:55 jcamins You may. You have my permission.
00:55 dcook I appreciate the permission. I'm sure they'll be delicious :)
00:55 dcook lol
00:56 dcook I did not expect you to say that
00:57 jcamins Hehe. Well, I thought you might be unsure whether envy was appropriate. :P
00:58 dcook I was unsure, haha
01:00 dcook How far along in the process are you of baking these?
01:02 jcamins I have combined the butter and sugar.
01:02 jcamins And added eggs and vanilla.
01:07 alex_a joined #koha
01:17 jcamins Not enough rosemary.
01:17 jcamins Fortunately I already chopped a bunch more.
01:36 tcohen joined #koha
01:49 dcook I wonder how often "GetMarcFromKohaField" is used...
01:49 dcook It's check for a defined $frameworkcode is problematic..
01:49 dcook o/ tcohen
01:49 dcook Enough rosemary now, jcamins?
01:49 dcook Its*
01:49 tcohen \o/
01:51 dcook Oh wait, or maybe I'm an idiot
01:51 dcook Yep, I'm an idiot
01:51 dcook Or hasty
01:51 dcook Let's say hasty ;)
01:52 tcohen what's your problem dcook?
01:52 dcook No problem :)
01:53 dcook I forgot that "defined" checks for nulls but let's through empty strings
01:53 dcook So everything works as it should :)
01:53 tcohen oh, tell me you're trying to remove all those nasty warnings on the logs...
01:54 bigbrovar joined #koha
01:54 dcook Alas, that's not my current task. Looking at doing email alerts for new bibs.
01:54 dcook It's all operational. Just trying to get the bib number out of search results from Zebra
01:54 dcook So that the emails contain hyperlinks to the opac :)
01:55 * dcook needs to write a mainstream patch for that one sometime
01:56 dcook It's not very elegant but it works pretty well
01:56 dcook Might step on the toes of what Kyle was working on though
01:59 jcamins dcook: yup. :)
02:00 dcook I'm trying to imagine how these cookies must taste...
02:20 jcamins Delicious!
02:20 jcamins And surprisingly subtle.
02:22 dcook I think my life needs more cookies...
02:23 zebran00b joined #koha
02:23 jcamins Probably.
02:24 zebran00b can anyone help troubleshoot a Koha 3.12 instance that won't send emails? koha_enable_email is on, I can send emails as root in command line, default address in SysPref is root@localhost.
02:24 zebran00b It's a package install so I haven't tinkered with any cronjobs or the like
02:27 jcamins zebran00b: are you able to send e-mails not from Koha?
02:27 zebran00b yes, there's a mediawiki on the same server that has sent emails, and I've sent test emails from the command line
02:28 jcamins Unfortunately, I am now out of ideas.
02:28 jcamins I just run koha-enable-email, and it works.
02:30 dcook I haven't even gotten that far yet with package installs. I'll have to look at koha-enable-email and the koha-zebra commands...but - alas - today is not that day
02:30 dcook zebran00b: Do you have anything in your message_queue table?
02:31 dcook Do you have notices set up?
02:31 zebran00b how do I check the message_queue tables? I was just trying to figure that out now.
02:31 zebran00b notices are all the defaults, they look fine.
02:31 dcook Are you familiar with using mysql from the commandline?
02:31 dcook If not, do you have a GUI on your server?
02:32 dcook Or on a computer that can access your server?
02:32 dcook I use the MySQL GUI tools for managing my DBs
02:33 zebran00b I'm somewhat comfortable in the command line
02:34 zebran00b I can't remember if we have a GUI
02:34 zebran00b checking
02:36 dcook If you do have a GUI and you're running Debian, these might be useful:
02:36 dcook a) mysql-gui-tools-common
02:36 dcook b) mysql-query-browser
02:36 dcook c) mysql-admin
02:36 dcook d) mysql-navigator
02:37 jcamins The command line mysql client will work just fine for you too, of course. :)
02:37 dcook That too
02:37 dcook select * from YOURKOHADB.message_queue;
02:38 dcook That'll tell you if any emails have even been put in the queue
02:38 dcook Better yet:
02:38 dcook select message_id,status from kohadev38.message_queue;
02:38 zebran00b thx, let me give that a shot
02:38 dcook The status will say if they're pending, failed, or sent
02:38 dcook Hope that helps
02:38 zebran00b kohadev38? is that dependent on my Koha version, in which case should it be kohadev312?
02:38 dcook lol
02:38 dcook Sorry
02:38 dcook That's my local dev DB
02:39 dcook Your name will be different
02:39 dcook Unless you named your instance dev38, which you wouldn't have done
02:39 dcook I'm actually working with email at the moment, but I don't use package installs (yet)
02:39 zebran00b gotcha
02:41 jcamins zebran00b: it'll be something like koha_library
02:41 dcook To connect to your MySQL db via the commandline, try: mysql -u DBUSER -h DBSERVERNAME -p
02:41 dcook DBSERVERNAME would probably be localhost in your case
02:42 dcook And DBUSER something like "koha_library" as well, I think.
02:42 zebran00b just looking up DB name to be sure...
02:42 dcook You could always connect to your server then do a "show databases" as well
02:43 dcook But I think the dbname and dbuser are the same..
02:45 jcamins dcook: you can leave out the server name if it's localhost.
02:47 zebran00b got PMA running, so bonus
02:48 zebran00b in message_queue tables, three queued hold notification emails from 2 weeks ago when I specified an email in SysPref. There should be some from yesterday, after I changed SysPref email to root@localhost, but they aren't there.
02:49 dcook In that case, you can be confident that it's not your mail server.
02:50 dcook How certain are you that there should've been emails yesterday?
02:50 dcook And what types of emails?
02:50 dcook More hold notifications?
02:50 zebran00b interesting, just placed a hold and it is now pending
02:51 zebran00b so the lack of notices about new account creation, overdues, must be because I didn't configure notices properly?
02:52 dcook Or you're missing something in a system preference, or triggers, or circ rules
02:52 zebran00b I always had "send an email to newly created patrons with their account details" enabled, but it never does it.
02:52 dcook Hmm
02:52 dcook Did that newly create patron have an email address?
02:53 dcook I'm not super familiar with that particular notice, but it might be that you need to fill out the other email address field, as it might only check for one
02:53 zebran00b checking circ rules. No, longstanding email.
02:53 dcook I think Koha needs to do a bit more checking with emails, but I have other priorities these days
02:54 zebran00b interesting thought about circ rules. Maybe I configured my libraries or patrons incorrectly?
02:55 dcook Try: /cgi-bin/koha/tools/overduerules.pl
02:55 dcook You might not have mapped your overdue triggers to notices
02:56 zebran00b package install, shouldn't this have been done already?
02:56 dcook In terms of circ rules, I was referring to the possibility that items you think are overdue might not actually be overdue
02:56 dcook zebran00b: Maybe, but I doubt it.
02:56 zebran00b more concerned about autosending account details to new patrons. Have about 200 accounts to create and would like to skip handwriting 200 emails.
02:56 dcook The reason being that overdue notices tend to be highly specific
02:56 dcook Indeed
02:57 dcook Alas, I can't help you on that one at the moment, as I have other work to do
02:58 dcook Look at the patron's email address again though
02:58 dcook Create a test patron right now and put in two different email addresses in the email fields for that patron
02:58 dcook Once you save that patron, an email should (in theory) be sent to one of them
03:00 zebran00b overduerules.pl generated "Can't locate C4/Context.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cg​i-bin/tools/overduerules.pl line 23. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cg​i-bin/tools/overduerules.pl line 23."
03:00 dcook Mmm, that would do it
03:01 dcook You need to set your PERL5LIB environmental variable to point to your C4 directory
03:01 dcook You're probably not setting your KOHA_CONF either
03:01 dcook I would think the packages would take care of that though...
03:01 zebran00b yes, they were supposed to
03:02 zebran00b and they seemed to do so as far as getting search indexing working, hence my handle
03:05 zebran00b actually for overdue notices, the problem seems to be that the overdue notice/status triggers aren't filled out
03:05 dcook Hence my pointing to the page: /cgi-bin/koha/tools/overduerules.pl
03:05 dcook :p
03:05 zebran00b right, but I should fill them out first :)
03:05 dcook Indeed
03:06 zebran00b meanwhile, message_queue says the hold message failed. It was sending from koha@localhost to koha@localhost, which is wrong in the first place (to address should be my personal mail, I placed the hold for my account)
03:07 dcook Do you have "emailLibrarianWhenHoldIsPlaced" turned on?
03:08 dcook If it were on, that would happen
03:08 zebran00b I do, but then why isn't it sending 2 emails - one to librarian, one to patron?
03:11 jcamins Because you have it set up to send to the wrong patron address, and the librarian address is invalid.
03:11 jcamins That's my guess.
03:12 dcook I would guess the same thing.
03:12 jcamins zebran00b: when you're running scripts, you should be using koha-shell.
03:12 zebran00b do I have to copy all notices from "all libraries" to my specific library?
03:12 dcook zebran00b: You shouldn't, no
03:12 zebran00b its not the wrong patron address, its my personal email address.
03:12 zebran00b the librarian address probably is invalid, tho
03:13 jcamins zebran00b: I'm not saying the e-mail address is not right, I'm saying that Koha is trying to send to the wrong address on the patron account. There are three.
03:13 dcook What does the syspref "AutoEmailPrimaryAddress" say?
03:13 zebran00b first valid
03:13 zebran00b why would it think it is invalid?
03:14 jcamins zebran00b: hmm. Never mind that theory.
03:14 jcamins Well, two of the three addresses associated with your patrnon are blank, right?
03:14 zebran00b yes
03:14 jcamins So if it were trying one of those two, there would be no e-mail address.
03:14 jcamins But "first valid" should fix it.
03:15 dcook Mhm
03:15 dcook Even with an invalid address, it should probably turn up in the message_queue
03:15 dcook Wait a tic...
03:15 dcook "if ( C4::Context->preference("AutoEmailOpacUser") == 1 && $newdata{'userid'}  && $newdata{'password'}) {"
03:16 dcook So you've turned on "AutoEmailOpacUser"
03:16 dcook Have you specified a userid and password for the new patron?
03:16 zebran00b yes
03:16 zebran00b I'm logged in as it now
03:18 dcook Sorry, I'm looking at the account detail notice instead
03:18 dcook It might not appear in your message_queue, as I think it might send it directly rather than using the queue
03:19 dcook In which case, it might be in your junkmail or some such
03:19 dcook Especially if you're using koha@localhost as the from address
03:19 dcook As for the holds...
03:20 zebran00b I just tried creating a new account with 3 different email addresses. I also copied the account detail notice to my library from "all libraries". Not seeing anything in message_queue, so I think you're right about direct send.
03:21 zebran00b I specified a username and password when I created the new patron, btw
03:21 dcook As for the patron, I'm betting that patrons don't get emails when they place their own holds
03:21 dcook After all, it would be a bit redundant to notify yourself that you put something on hold
03:21 dcook Yep. I think they just get emailed when a hold is filled.
03:22 dcook So...you're back to...checking your spam filters
03:22 jcamins EnhancedMessaging makes it possible to add that notice.
03:22 dcook jcamins: Since when?
03:22 wahanui Since when are you normal people?
03:22 jcamins dcook: ages.
03:22 dcook I only see "Hold filled" in EnhancedMessaging
03:22 jcamins Hmmm.
03:22 dcook Well, in 3.8
03:23 jcamins I thought I remembered seeing a patch for that.
03:23 jcamins Maybe not.
03:23 dcook You never know
03:23 zebran00b no spam of any sort.
03:23 dcook I'm just too lazy to start up my 3.12 vm
03:23 dcook It's too choppy :/
03:23 jcamins Yeah, HOLDPLACED.
03:23 dcook Hmm, must be newer
03:24 dcook Oh, I see the notice
03:24 dcook I think that's for librarians though
03:24 jcamins Oh, that may be.
03:24 dcook Pretty sure
03:26 dcook zebran00b: You're certain th at you have turned on "AutoEmailOpacUser"?
03:26 * dcook is going to give it a whirl on 3.8
03:26 dcook I thought I had issues with this a while ago too to be honest, but I might be misremembering
03:26 dcook Oh wait...
03:26 dcook That ""AutoEmailPrimaryAddress"" syspref might not work for Account Details
03:26 dcook That was for...
03:26 dcook Oh wait, I think that was for account details
03:26 zebran00b dcook: yup, "AutoEmailOpacUser" is on.
03:27 dcook Yeah, nevermind. Second guessing myself.
03:27 zebran00b AutoEmailPrimaryAddress is first valid
03:27 zebran00b KohaAdminEmailAddress is koha@localhost
03:27 dcook Hmm, I just tried it on 3.8 and had no problem
03:27 zebran00b emailLibrarianWhenHoldIsPlaced is enabled
03:28 zebran00b should I try turning it on and off again?
03:28 dcook Nah
03:28 zebran00b did anyway
03:28 dcook Won't hurt
03:30 dcook Tell you what...I'm going to try it on my package install
03:31 dcook Getting close to exhausting the easy possibilities though
03:32 zebran00b yeah, that's got me worried.
03:32 zebran00b Already cataloged 18,000 records in this instance.
03:33 dcook How savvy are you with Perl? ;)
03:33 zebran00b not
03:33 zebran00b :(
03:33 dcook Good opportunity to learn :p
03:33 jcamins I can tell you that I use packages exclusively in production, and e-mail has always worked perfectly.
03:34 jcamins Not that my clients use e-mail a lot, but when they do, it just works. So there may be something else going on.
03:35 zebran00b hmmm
03:36 zebran00b we have apparently hooked up nullmailer with our Google Apps emails. Could that be interfering?
03:36 jcamins Probably.
03:36 jcamins I have never gotten nullmailer to work.
03:36 jcamins And if you did, they will reject any messages that are not from one of the e-mail addresses you configured.
03:37 zebran00b aaaah
03:37 jcamins Such as koha@localhost.
03:38 dcook Always handy to use valid email addresses
03:39 zebran00b but I'm confused, isn't koha@localhost a valid email address?
03:39 zebran00b there is a linux account called koha with a mailbox.
03:39 jcamins Not outside your local computer.
03:39 jcamins But you said you set up nullmailer.
03:39 zebran00b someone else set up nullmailer
03:39 jcamins Right.
03:40 jcamins But it is set up.
03:40 zebran00b I'm only just learning what it is :P
03:40 zebran00b apparently
03:40 jcamins I have never been able to get it to work.
03:40 jcamins But my understanding of what it does is make it so that the local machine acts like it doesn't have any mail server at all.
03:41 zebran00b so if we remove nullmailer, koha should be able to send plain old emails?
03:41 jcamins (local mail delivery doesn't go through a server; Koha does)
03:41 jcamins If you install a proper mail server, like Postfix.
03:41 jcamins postfix?
03:41 wahanui postfix is found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix (but you probably can skip the SASL stuff) or at http://www.postfix.org/documentation.html
03:41 jcamins That's my guess, anyway.
03:41 zebran00b our users have external email addresses though, so it wouldn't be local mail delivery
03:41 jcamins You might change the return address to one of the addresses you have configured, and see if that helps.
03:42 jcamins (when you send a message to your real address)
03:42 jcamins But it's late, and I need sleep.
03:42 mcooper joined #koha
03:42 zebran00b thx jcamins dcook
03:42 dcook Now that I think about it, weren't you saying those message_queue messages were marked as failed, zebran00b?
03:42 zebran00b yes, failed
03:42 dcook night jcamins
03:43 jcamins Good night.
03:43 wahanui I watch you sleep.
03:43 dcook In that case, if the "to" address is valid, it's your mail server
03:43 jcamins I know you do, wahanui, I know.
03:43 zebran00b both when I had koha@localhost and an external email address as the KohaAdminEmailAddress
03:43 zebran00b nite jcamins
03:45 dcook In that case, zebran00b, its a bit too system specific for me to really help anymore
03:46 zebran00b that's ok, dcook, you guys helped me narrow it down.
03:46 zebran00b thx
03:46 dcook Note that Koha uses Sendmail.pm to send its email
03:48 dcook If you do "locate Sendmail.pm" and open that in an editor, you'll be able to see more about the mail config, which might help whoever else helps you with figuring out your mail server issues
03:48 dcook That config might be overwritten in Koha, but...I don't think so
03:48 dcook I'm not super familiar with mail servers and sending email though

12:38 tcohen closed academic libraries
12:38 kf no holds?
12:38 tcohen and, we don't use holds (yet)
12:38 kf aah lucky :)
12:40 tcohen oh. you provided a fix
12:41 kf not really
12:41 kf it's not fixable for title level holds i think
12:41 kf well getreservestatus is, should not be used to check for reserved,
13:00 nengard left #koha
13:07 oleonard You still fighting with holds today kf?
13:10 kf today fighting with ils-di
13:10 kf jcamins: around?
13:10 jcamins Vaguely.
13:10 jcamins Until my breakfast finishes heating.
13:10 jcamins What's up?
13:11 kf i am trying to write a unit test for AuthenticatePatron
13:11 kf http://git.koha-community.org/[…]/Services.pm#l307
13:11 jcamins kf++
13:11 kf is there a way to do it?
13:11 kf i am stumbling on the cgi-param...
13:12 jcamins You can mock the cgi object.
13:12 kf do we have an example somewhere?
13:12 jcamins Create a CGI object, set the relevant params, and pass it in.
13:12 jcamins Nope.
13:12 oleonard Do not taunt the cgi object!
13:12 kf that's bad
13:12 kf because then i have no idea how to start. hm.
13:14 mmm45 joined #koha
13:14 mmm45 hello
13:14 wahanui que tal, mmm45
13:15 mmm45 i have some questions regarding ccsr and the mobile
13:15 jcamins Maybe there's a Test::CGI.
13:15 jcamins I will check.
13:15 jcamins CGI::Test?
13:15 kf do we already use that?
13:15 jcamins No.
13:15 kf *sigh*
13:15 kf i see
13:15 kf this gets out of scope
13:15 jcamins And this is not what you want anyway.
13:15 mmm45 once i change opacthemes from prog to ccsr
13:16 mmm45 the regular browser looks very weird and not very nice on the phone either
13:16 mmm45 i am on version 3.12.2
13:16 jcamins mmm45: do you have custom CSS?
13:16 mmm45 i think there is some custom
13:16 oleonard mmm45: Have you tried clearing your browser cache? Did you set the opaccolorstylesheet to "colors.css" ?
13:16 oleonard opaccolorstylesheet system preference, that is.
13:16 mmm45 i did set opaccolor to colors.css
13:17 mmm45 yes, i have done that
13:17 oleonard mmm45: Is your opac public? Can we look?
13:17 mmm45 are there any other changes in the pref that i need to do?
13:18 mmm45 catalog-dev.uttyler.edu
13:18 mmm45 as compared to catalog.uttyler.edu
13:18 mmm45 right now i am messing with the testing site
13:18 mmm45 catalog-dev is on ccsr
13:18 ebegin joined #koha
13:18 mmm45 and just catalog is on prog
13:19 jcamins mmm45: in my experience, you have to redo all your custom CSS/JS when switching between the two.
13:19 ebegin good morning / afternoon / night #koha ;)
13:19 oleonard mmm45: I agree. It looks like an issue with your custom CSS.
13:19 mmm45 so, find the custom and just start messing with it?
13:20 jcamins I'd remove it all and start from a clean slate.
13:21 kf jcamins: cookie? :)
13:21 mmm45 i'm not sure where the custom code was done....to be very honest
13:21 jcamins kf: ooh, yes. Have an amazing and subtle rosemary sugar cookie.
13:21 mmm45 it was already like this when i took the job
13:21 mmm45 look at opac.css?
13:21 mmm45 or basically everywhere?
13:21 jcamins mmm45: if you didn't hand-build your packages, I'd guess it's probably customized in the usual way, through the database.
13:22 jcamins If it's not there, then, yeah, I have no idea where to look.
13:22 dani joined #koha
13:22 mmm45 do i need to add anything under opaclayoutstylesheet?
13:23 oleonard mmm45: opacUserCSS system pref maybe?
13:23 mmm45 that might be part of it
13:23 kf jcamins: was more thinking about bribing you...
13:23 kf but i see that the changes are low.
13:24 mmm45 thank you so much.....i will keep looking
13:27 kf chances..
13:27 wahanui chances are good i'd wager the same behavior out of patron cards as well

14:06 oleonard Ugh, suggestions are SUCH A MESS
14:06 oleonard We should get rid of ALL the organize/filter options altogether and put them all in one big table
14:07 jcamins oleonard: would that help?
14:08 oleonard At leats they would all be in once place and you wouldn't have to wonder whether you hadn't chosen the right filter option
14:09 oleonard If I choose to "organize by library," why do I get one tab labeled "unknown" ?
14:10 oleonard If I "organize by 'managed by'" I get *two* tabs labeled "unknown!"
14:10 tcohen joined #koha
14:13 gmcharlt oleonard: indeed; IIRC, cait has been poking at it
14:25 oleonard Should one wait to mark a bug 'fixed' until it has been pushed to 3.10.x? 3.8.x?

18:41 jcamins JSON is undefined?
18:41 jcamins wtf?
18:42 jcamins AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
18:42 jcamins wtf?
18:42 drojf what the fun is going on here? hi #koha
18:43 jcamins drojf: IE doesn't support JSON.
18:45 * drojf does not support IE
18:46 drojf so, why do you use it? and… really, like "not at all"?
18:46 drojf there is probably some "superior" windows data format around i never heard of? ;=
18:46 drojf ;)
18:47 jcamins drojf: I don't want there to be an error if someone tries to use IE despite having been told not to.
18:47 drojf then use a microsoft approved data format :P
18:48 jcamins drojf: and, not at all.
18:48 pianohacker use XML! It'll inflate your code for no real benefits, but XML!
18:48 jcamins There is no JSON object.
18:49 pianohacker You aren't dealing with some weird compatibility or quirks mode, are you?
18:49 drojf http://stackoverflow.com/quest[…]-explorer#5339285 ?!
18:50 jcamins pianohacker: no, I am, I just get annoyed by them, every time.
18:50 jcamins drojf: yeah, that's what I found.
18:54 drojf pianohacker: there is an IE that is not generally some weird compatibility quirks mode
18:54 drojf ?
18:54 pianohacker if you read enough MSDN, sure
18:55 drojf no, thanks ;)
18:57 jcamins Wow, wow, wow, wow. This is impressive. Truly.
18:57 jcamins IE's rendering is the Weirdest Ever.
19:01 jcamins Man, that's dreadful.
19:01 jcamins But my paging works in IE.
19:02 jcamins To the extent that anything works, at least.
19:06 jcamins pianohacker: I think this browser has not read MSDN enough: http://screencast.com/t/i8m0Ze8nSC

20:14 cait hm?
20:15 pianohacker you mentioned that the XML data for the new cataloging plugins had some issues with translation
20:15 pianohacker Have any efforts been made towards fixing that?
20:16 cait yes
20:16 cait i think bgkriegel fixed it
20:21 tcohen hi cait
20:21 cait hi tcohen :=
20:21 cait :)
20:21 tcohen is that work on 3.12.3 already cait?
20:22 cait i think so
20:22 cait i think it went into 3.12
20:22 cait brb
20:22 tcohen we are live using 3.12 and happy, had some weirdness related to extended patron attributes
20:22 jcamins Yes, it was down to the wire, but I think that was the last patch I pushed prior to string freeze.
20:27 tcohen you're right jcamins, I pushed some typo patches for that work, for release 3.12.1
20:40 jcamins sleep?
20:40 wahanui somebody said sleep was an addiction that can be cured!
20:40 jcamins sleep?
20:40 wahanui sleep is an addiction that can be cured!
20:40 jcamins Huh.
20:41 cait :)
20:41 cait so what's the trick?
20:42 tcohen i need to push a trivial string patch,
20:42 * cait needs to qa something
20:42 tcohen why can't i just mark as pushed to stable?
20:43 cait some status are linked together
20:43 jcamins tcohen: you have to go through Pushed to master first.
20:43 cait might be you have to set another status first - rangi can change it i think
20:43 jcamins IT's the workflow.
20:43 jcamins *It's
20:43 tcohen </rmaint rant>
20:43 tcohen i'm mentioning vimal (livecd manager)
20:46 jcamins jcamins?
20:46 wahanui somebody said jcamins was the brilliant and irascible President of the United States.
20:46 jcamins jcamins?
20:46 wahanui somebody said jcamins was the best cookie-chef in #koha.
20:46 jcamins jcamins?
20:46 wahanui ask him about serials and/or acquisitions.
20:46 jcamins jcamins?
20:46 wahanui you are RM for 3.12, and just about the only one crazy enough to work on major projects in both authorities and search.
20:46 jcamins jcamins?
20:46 wahanui i guess jcamins is too young to be the President of the United States.  Which is a pity, because he had the votes at the 3.12 election.
20:46 jcamins jcamins?
20:46 wahanui it has been said that jcamins is a spoilsport
20:46 jcamins jcamins?
20:46 wahanui somebody said jcamins was too young to be the President of the United States.  Which is a pity, because he had the votes at the 3.12 election.
20:46 jcamins Someone's been playing with what wahanui knows about me.
20:50 cait tcohen++
20:50 tcohen do u people have robots.txt on your koha sites?
20:50 jcamins I do.

23:35 rangi but you dont feel most of them
23:35 dcook Yeah, most of those look pretty small
23:36 dcook Apparently, I was in a few in Vancouver but I never felt any of those either
23:36 dcook Even though the innards of buildings around me were apparently shaken quite badly O_o
23:36 dcook Maybe I'm just used to having sea legs...
23:37 jcamins I have experienced two earthquakes. One in Kabul, when everyone just assumed it was an explosion, and one in New York from a quake down in VA. Other than that, I've managed to avoid them. I don't think I'd like 20k/year.
23:38 pianohacker Good night, all
23:38 dcook New Zealanders are made of tough stuff (even if they don't feel many of them)
