My brain's less exploded now, dcook. Solved part of my problems today. :) |
| 02:50 |
|
dcook |
hey mtompset |
| 02:50 |
|
wahanui |
mtompset is probably disliking finding bugs while testing. |
| 02:50 |
|
mtompset |
YAY for reading code, and the patience to "*tweak* refresh *look at logs* *tweak* refresh *look at logs* *repeat many many times*" |
| 02:50 |
|
dcook |
Mmm, no doubt, eh? |
| 02:51 |
|
* dcook |
doesn't remember why his brain was exploding yesterday. |
| 02:51 |
|
dcook |
Oh wait, now I remember. Hmm, I'll just pretend to block it out. |
| 02:51 |
|
mtompset |
As long as you picked up all the pieces, no problem. ;) |
| 02:54 |
|
dcook |
Mmm, it might just explode again though |

Trying to figure out why Koha is double-encoding some URLs... |
| 02:58 |
|
dcook |
Admittedly, it's for a local customization so not really a big issue.. |
| 03:01 |

dcook, i remember the 1st few times i bumped into double-encoding bugs… it was tricky :/ |
| 03:12 |
|
dcook |
Yeah, I'm not sure where the double encoding is happening exactly, although I could try to unencode the data at one part so the double encoding doesn't happen |
| 03:12 |
|
dcook |
But then that just reveals more bugs with this particular code... |
| 03:14 |
|
mtj_ |
yeah, it can be difficult to work out where the naughty code is |
| 03:15 |
|
dcook |
Oh, I think it's all pretty naughty in this case :p |
| 03:15 |
|
dcook |
But aside from re-writing it... |
| 03:17 |
|
rangi |
rewrite? |
| 03:17 |
|

hmmm... rewrite is different |
| 03:18 |

dcook, try and add warns on the string, at various stages - see if you can spot the glitchy transform |
| 03:18 |
|
mtj_ |
(thats how i'd approach it) |
| 03:19 |
|
mtj_ |
heya rangi :) |

rangi |
heya mtj_ |
| 03:21 |
|
dcook |
Good call, rangi |
| 03:21 |
|
dcook |
In this case...I know what it's doing and it isn't doing it very well :p |
| 03:21 |
|
dcook |
Well, aside from the double encoding |
| 03:22 |
|
dcook |
mtj_, it seems to me that data that is hex encoded is encoded again when passed as form data |
| 03:24 |
|
dcook |
I like the idea of writing tests before writing code though, or writing tests while writing the code |
| 03:24 |
|
dcook |
When I was writing the unit test for the OAI-PMH harvester, I noticed that X would be good and Y should be better, so I fixed the code and made it so that the test would validate in a meaningful way |
| 03:24 |
|
dcook |
That said, I'm sure the code could be better |
| 03:25 |
|
rangi |
yep |
| 03:25 |
|
rangi |
it is a much better way of doing it |
| 03:26 |
|
dcook |
As for the double encoding...I think maybe the browser is doing the double encoding... |
| 03:29 |
|
* dcook |
reads some Perl docs |
| 03:35 |
|
mtj_ |
i've found that writing tests can be very revealing about your code |
| 03:36 |
|
mtj_ |
...often around the cumbersomeness of an api, that could be improved |
| 03:45 |
|
mtj_ |
dcook, also look a some Koha code that does something similar to yours |
| 03:46 |
|
dcook |
Mmm, I don't know if anything does do something similar |
| 03:46 |
|
dcook |
I think what I'm reading might be a shortcut.. |
| 03:49 |
|
dcook |
"If you try to mix a URL query string with a form submitted with the GET method, the results will not be what you expect." |
| 03:49 |
|
dcook |
True that... |
| 03:50 |
|
dcook |
The URL says %2520 (double encoded space) |
| 03:50 |
|
dcook |
While the data retrieved using param() says %20 |
| 03:50 |
|
dcook |
Which is right.. |
| 03:50 |
|
dcook |
This code is using the URL query string rather than the param() values though.. |
| 03:51 |
|
dcook |
I figure it should use param() instead, but I'm curious as to why it's double encoding in any case.. |
| 03:52 |
|
dcook |
"You can also retrieve the unprocessed query string with query_string():" That doesn't seem to be the case though as that prints out %20 as well.. |
| 03:56 |
|
dcook |
Wait.. |
| 03:56 |
|
dcook |
query_string() does print out %2520 |
| 03:56 |
|
dcook |
It's...url_param() that prints out %20.. |
| 03:57 |
|
dcook |
I guess %20 might just be %2520 unencoded |
| 03:57 |
|
dcook |
That would make sense.. |
| 03:57 |
|
dcook |
Maybe |
| 04:03 |
|
dcook |
Yeah, it's defo the browser that is double encoding it.. |
| 04:11 |
|
dcook |
Now that I think about it...this was all dreadfully obvious :p |
| 04:11 |
|
dcook |
Of course HTML forms would automatically be urlencoded... |
| 04:11 |
|
dcook |
Hence double encoded |
| 04:18 |

| 04:23 |
|
mtj_ |
yeah, makes sense to me too |
| 04:25 |
|
dcook |
I suppose they're using the query string rather than the form data so that they don't have to guess what's coming through.. |
| 04:25 |
|

| 04:25 |

Double encoding illuminated and problem bandaided for now. Any rewrites to that aren't happening today. |

Gotta love how things like "article" or "chapter" don't wind up in MARC, but the 008 will tell you if the item is a "Surveys of literature in a subject area" |
| 04:48 |
|
dcook |
But of course. Distinguish a filmography from a bibliography, but not a book from an article. |

dcook: there are things for articles |
| 06:26 |
|
cait |
serial component part and monographic component part |
| 06:26 |
|
cait |
... in the LDR I think |
| 06:26 |
|
dcook |
Yeah, but that doesn't differentiate between an article and a book chapter |
| 06:26 |
|
cait |
it does |
| 06:26 |
|
dcook |
Which would both be a monographic component part |
| 06:26 |
|
cait |
chapter is monographic component part |
| 06:26 |
|
cait |
and article is serial i'd think |
| 06:26 |
|

oh meh. |

dcook |
Hmm |
| 06:27 |
|
dcook |
I suppose that's one way to do it, eh? |
| 06:27 |
|
dcook |
Just make the choice at the local level |
| 06:28 |
|
dcook |
I was just thinking in regards to the RIS export |
| 06:28 |
|
dcook |
As it exports everything with a leader position 6 "a" as "Book" |
| 06:29 |
|
dcook |
Or rather "BOOK" |
| 06:29 |
|
dcook |
Rather than "JOUR" or "CHAP" |
| 06:32 |

hm |
| 06:32 |

how does the unapi code do it? |
| 06:32 |

Good morning Koha! Is there any place where I could take a broad overview about Koha features? |
| 07:03 |
|
dcook |
Hey kivilahtio |
| 07:03 |
|
wahanui |
kivilahtio is running 3.4 |
| 07:03 |
|

3.4? Time for an upgrade! |
| 07:04 |
|
kivilahtio |
really? |
| 07:04 |
|
wahanui |
really is off now |
| 07:04 |
|
kivilahtio |
i just installed 3.12 |
| 07:04 |
|
dcook |
I suppose the best broad overview would be the manual |
| 07:04 |
|
kivilahtio |
its huge |
| 07:04 |
|
dcook |
Yep |
| 07:04 |
|
kivilahtio |
i sent an email to the mailing list about our need to re-evaluate our stance on Evergreen |
| 07:04 |
|
dcook |
There are a lot of features ;) |
| 07:05 |
|
dcook |
Our stance? |
| 07:05 |
|
kivilahtio |
we have been working 36 man months on Evergreen and our progress is really slow |
| 07:05 |
|
kivilahtio |
and in 18 months Koha has advnaced a lot |
| 07:05 |
|
kivilahtio |
:D |
| 07:05 |
|
dcook |
Mmm |
| 07:05 |
|
dcook |
True true |
| 07:05 |
|
kivilahtio |
this makes me wonder if the Koha we investigated 18 months ago is the same Koha as 3.12 |
| 07:05 |
|
dcook |
18 months ago.. |
| 07:05 |
|
* dcook |
ponders |
| 07:06 |
|
dcook |
It would've been drastically different I imagine |
| 07:06 |
|
kivilahtio |
atleast installing was easy |
| 07:06 |
|
dcook |
Releases are 6 months apart so that would've been... |
| 07:06 |
|
kivilahtio |
tho accessing the intranet from another machine seems hard ;) |
| 07:06 |
|
dcook |
3.14 is coming out in November I think.. |
| 07:06 |
|
dcook |
Accessing the intranet from another machine? |
| 07:06 |
|
kivilahtio |
actualyl I was hoping for someone to help us get up to speed |
| 07:07 |
|
dcook |
I imagine you evaluated 3.8? Maybe even 3.6? |
| 07:07 |
|
kivilahtio |
we are around 6 months from going live, with some system |
| 07:07 |
|
kivilahtio |
3.4 |
| 07:07 |
|
kivilahtio |
3.2 |
| 07:07 |
|
dcook |
Yeah, that was quite a long time ago |
| 07:07 |
|
kivilahtio |
and our evaluation was a tie |
| 07:07 |
|
kivilahtio |
50/50 Eg vs Koha |
| 07:07 |
|
dcook |
Intriguing |
| 07:07 |
|
dcook |
Most evaluations I've heard, even back then, tended to favour Koha |
| 07:07 |
|
kivilahtio |
we chose Eg because it had better merits in large Consortias |
| 07:07 |
|
dcook |
Yeah, I hear it scales well |
| 07:07 |
|
* dcook |
has yet to install it |
| 07:08 |
|
kivilahtio |
even if it was clear that it was technically more difficult |
| 07:08 |
|
kivilahtio |
dcook: not true IMHO |
| 07:08 |
|
kivilahtio |
database is the bottle neck |
| 07:08 |
|
kivilahtio |
and it scaled with normal db replication techniques |
| 07:08 |
|
kivilahtio |
like with Koha |
| 07:08 |
|
kivilahtio |
so presonally I don't see the scaling benefit |
| 07:08 |
|
dcook |
Mmm, fair enough |
| 07:08 |
|
dcook |
<--- librarian turned developer rather than straight up CS/IT person |
| 07:09 |
|
kivilahtio |
the method for scaling is the same with Koha as Evergreen |
| 07:09 |
|
dcook |
To be honest, I work with Koha every day, and I'm not even up to speed with where 3.12 is at |
| 07:09 |
|

tho Eg has the benfit of running for ex. the Reporting on a separate machine |

We just were in Vancouver for the Eg 2014 :) |
| 07:34 |
|
kivilahtio |
but yeah I noticed that |
| 07:34 |
|
rangi |
kivilahtio: the sessions are being filmed |
| 07:34 |
|
kivilahtio |
I think it was Eg 2013 in Vancouver not 2014 |
| 07:35 |
|
rangi |
but the hackfest would be the best place to get a real feel for it |
| 07:36 |
|
rangi |
however http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]KohaCon13_Program |
| 07:36 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: Any idea who could host a webinar for us. We have a pretty solid understanding of what requirements we have for a ILS and would like to talk with someone or someones who have a deep understanding of Koha both techincally and from the librarians perspective. |
| 07:36 |
|
rangi |
watching a bunch of these will probably give you a really good feel |
| 07:36 |
|
rangi |
id vote for magnus |
| 07:37 |
|
kivilahtio |
hm |
| 07:37 |
|
rangi |
same timezone makes things a lot easier |
| 07:37 |
|
kivilahtio |
well magnus has always been a charmer :) |
| 07:38 |
|
rangi |
he also has a really good understanding of what koha can and cant do |
| 07:38 |
|
kivilahtio |
timezone is not that much of an issue for us, we have been ok with the Evergreen community time-zone-wise |
| 07:38 |
|
rangi |
yep, they are still closer to your time than i am :) |
| 07:39 |
|
kivilahtio |
wow, I like the global koha-community -aspect :) |
| 07:39 |
|
* dcook |
doesn't remember consenting to being filmed :p |
| 07:40 |
|
rangi |
http://git.koha-community.org/[…]ter/activity.html <-- we cover every hour of the day |
| 07:41 |
|
kivilahtio |
what was one thing that pushed us to Evergreen was performance. Back then Koha was under some bad rap about managing large installations, especially regarding serials |
| 07:42 |
|
kivilahtio |
I think the main point with Evergreen for us is the proven performance and ability to set very specific circulation, permission, fine settings for each library |
| 07:43 |
|
kivilahtio |
not that having a varied parametrizations makes any sense, not the least for our patrons |
| 07:43 |
|
rangi |
dcook: just do do some interpretive dance |
| 07:45 |
|
rangi |
you can do that with Koha |
| 07:45 |
|
rangi |
(the fine, circ ones anyone) |
| 07:45 |
|
rangi |
if you have independentbranches the permissions too |
| 07:45 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: we need to re-evaluate those es well :) |
| 07:46 |
|
rangi |
you can also do tricks like use mysql replication |
| 07:46 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: also we had some issues about library hierarchy, like we have libraries with different departments. Main library has musics-, serials, childrens- and adult departments under the main branch |
| 07:46 |
|
rangi |
and run the reports against the slave db |
| 07:47 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: yeah, I was rather dismayed when I realized that those were the primary use cases in the Evergreen community |
| 07:47 |
|
rangi |
ie, with the debian packages it simple to run up as many koha instances as you like |
| 07:47 |
|
rangi |
they can use the same db, or different ones |
| 07:48 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: well we are planning to run one instance |
| 07:48 |
|
rangi |
i would run 2 |
| 07:48 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: I mean if I understand the benefit of it |
| 07:48 |
|
rangi |
you can do tricks like |
| 07:48 |
|
rangi |
for the opac, when you aren't logged in |
| 07:48 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: We are planning to have a library consortium to service 3 municipalities |
| 07:48 |
|
rangi |
you use the instance that hits the slave db |
| 07:49 |
|
rangi |
ie 99% of the OPAC usage is rads |
| 07:49 |
|
rangi |
reads |
| 07:49 |
|
rangi |
once you login, you hit the koha that does writes |
| 07:49 |
|
rangi |
(nginx in front and people cant even tell the difference) |
| 07:49 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: but you can achieve this using multiple web server |
| 07:50 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: have a public server, intranet server, master mysql server and hot-spare mysql |
| 07:50 |
|
rangi |
nope |
| 07:50 |
|
rangi |
thats not the same |
| 07:50 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: nut sure if you have database load balancing solution in mysql like pgpool-II in postgresql |
| 07:50 |
|
rangi |
there are mysqlcluster |
| 07:50 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: all the koha instances run on the same hardware |
| 07:52 |
|
rangi |
but yep, any techniques you use to scale a website, you can use with koha |
| 07:52 |
|
rangi |
because its all just a website |
| 07:53 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: yeah |
| 07:53 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: how about hardware? Do you have any established hardware requirements? |
| 07:53 |
|
rangi |
nope |
| 07:53 |
|
rangi |
its a bit of a how long is a piece of string |
| 07:54 |
|
rangi |
my rule of thumb, get as much ram as you can afford and as fast a disk as you can afford |
| 07:54 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: we were aiming for 128GB and SSD's |
| 07:54 |
|
rangi |
if you have to choose between fast cpu and fast ram/disk choose ram/disk |
| 07:55 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: so what are the performance bottlenecks? |
| 07:55 |
|
rangi |
I/O |
| 07:55 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: clearly string operations :) |
| 07:55 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: do you mean high I/O for the server? |
| 07:55 |
|
rangi |
if you have slow disk, your zebra indexing will be slow |
| 07:55 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: do you mean high I/O for the mysql server? |
| 07:55 |
|

kf joined #koha |

| 07:55 |

hi rangi |
| 07:55 |
|
kf |
hi all |
| 07:55 |
|
rangi |
hi kf |
| 07:55 |
|
kivilahtio |
hi kf! |
| 07:56 |
|
kf |
hi kivilahtio |
| 07:56 |
|
kf |
was just reading your email to the mailing list |
| 07:56 |
|
rangi |
kivilahtio: the mysql server shouldnt do too much I/O if you have enough RAM |
| 07:56 |
|
kivilahtio |
kf: just thinking about Koha |
| 07:56 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: yeah, was planning to run it from RAM |
| 07:56 |
|
rangi |
kivilahtio: but the zebra indexing writes out the records to disk, as marcxml and adds them to the index |
| 07:57 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: ah |
| 07:57 |
|
rangi |
so if you put that partition as ramdisk |
| 07:57 |
|
rangi |
that is a big win |
| 07:57 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: ok |
| 07:57 |
|
rangi |
you want the actual indexes on disk tho |
| 07:57 |
|
rangi |
cos else a reboot would be a mess :) |
| 07:57 |
|
rangi |
but the /tmp as ram is a good win |
| 07:57 |
|
dcook |
rangi: I'm not much of a dancer either :p |
| 07:58 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: can you give us any numbers? Like how much RAM is needed for 400 000 bibliographics records and 1 000 000 items= |
| 07:58 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: or do you have any hardware numbers i could correlate from? |
| 07:58 |
|
kivilahtio |
bibs vs ram, circulation/year vs cpu... |
| 07:58 |
|
rangi |
circ really doesnt work the cpu much at all |
| 07:59 |
|
rangi |
nothign koha does is cpu bound to any real extent |
| 07:59 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: good to hear |
| 07:59 |
|
rangi |
we aren't rendering things |
| 07:59 |
|
rangi |
id go for at least 32 |
| 07:59 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: well you get load from your patrons. Lots of simultaneous searches |
| 07:59 |
|
rangi |
but like i say, the more you can put in, the more apache threads you can have |
| 08:00 |
|
rangi |
id definitely put nginx and/or varnish out in front of the apache too |
| 08:00 |
|
rangi |
to deal with all the static content |
| 08:00 |
|
kivilahtio |
128 is pretty good for bang vs buck i think |
| 08:00 |
|
rangi |
because they both do it a zillion times faster than apache can |
| 08:00 |
|
rangi |
yep |
| 08:00 |
|
kivilahtio |
nginx might be the thing, since we are looking into more HA solution |
| 08:01 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: so how large is your library? |
| 08:01 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: I think I already slipped our numbers |
| 08:01 |
|
rangi |
i dont work in a library |

kivilahtio |
wow kf, yous searches are super fast |
| 08:05 |

kf |
ah, you are looking at the union catalog I think? |
| 08:06 |
|
kivilahtio |
SWB-online Katalog |
| 08:06 |

dcook |
I think kf has the most beautiful catalog, iirc |
| 08:06 |
|
dcook |
err catalogue even |
| 08:06 |
|
kf |
yep, that's our union catalog, we are a library service center |
| 08:06 |
|
kivilahtio |
kf: Do you have any opinions about performance? |
| 08:06 |
|
kf |
so offering different library related services |
| 08:06 |
|
kivilahtio |
kf: Do you have any opinions about hardware? |
| 08:07 |
|
kf |
not really - I am not taking care of the hardware and our installations are not as big |
| 08:07 |
|
rangi |
kivilahtio: id talk to tcohen if you see him |
| 08:07 |
|
kivilahtio |

| 08:07 |
|
kivilahtio |
what does tcohen do? |
| 08:08 |
|
kf |
tcohen? |
| 08:08 |
|
wahanui |
tcohen is obsessed with packages' scripts |
| 08:08 |
|
kivilahtio |
ofc I could just dig up my old migration scripts and push our data to Koha ;) |
| 08:08 |
|
kf |
heh, not quite what i was looking for |
| 08:09 |
|
kf |
tcohen has a lot of koha instances to take care of |
| 08:09 |
|
rangi |
and some biggish ones |
| 08:09 |
|
kivilahtio |
rangi: kf: Hmm, could I email him? |
| 08:10 |
|
kf |
kivilahtio: he is normally around a little later |
| 08:10 |
|
kf |
he is located in argentina |
| 08:10 |
|
kivilahtio |
ok |

dcook:various Evergreen vendors |
| 08:33 |
|
dcook |
Ahhh |
| 08:33 |
|
dcook |
I thought you meant Koha vendors |
| 08:33 |
|
dcook |
Silly me |
| 08:34 |
|
kivilahtio |
we should have done our Requirements specification in Enlgish :D |
| 08:34 |
|
dcook |
Apparently we have a library with 900,000 biblios and 1,000,000 items |
| 08:34 |
|
dcook |
Only about 2000 patrons though |
| 08:34 |
|
dcook |
kivilahtio: That probably would've helped :p |
| 08:34 |
|
paul_p |
kivilahtio and frankly, with only 20 branches, I'm not sure you need evergeen feature (there are some things that EG do, not Koha, in circulation management AFAIK) |
| 08:34 |
|
dcook |
I'm not super famililar with Evergreen, but I think it's mostly developed in North America? |
| 08:34 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: I posted an email to the Koha mailing list. We are looking for help in re-evaluating Koha |
| 08:34 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: and possible migration support |
| 08:35 |
|
paul_p |
kivilahtio got it ! |
| 08:35 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: we chose Evergreen for its consortial features and strong emphasis on individual library parametrization. |
| 08:36 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: but it seems that we are strongly trying to simplify our parameters in wake of your municipal library cooperation |
| 08:36 |
|
paul_p |
kivilahtio = I know finland & norway are different, but do you know that there's a nice guy in norway providing Koha support ( magnus_away => ping !) |
| 08:36 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: already emailing him ;) and we have chatted and I think me in some occasion years ago |
| 08:36 |
|
drojf |
dcook: that was my impression when we decided which system to use. rather us-centric |
| 08:36 |
|
kivilahtio |
we met few years ago |
| 08:36 |
|
paul_p |
kivilahtio IIRC, there's also a monestary in finland, using Koha (valamo ?) |
| 08:36 |
|
kivilahtio |
drojf: We have INSANE localization issues |
| 08:36 |
|
kivilahtio |
drojf: we have been trying to get localizations to work for 8 months |
| 08:37 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: so true |
| 08:37 |
|
drojf |
kivilahtio: you should be happy with koha when it comes to localizations |
| 08:37 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: and some smaller rural library |
| 08:37 |
|
kf |
kivilahtio: and it's getting better all the time - but mostly in a good place now :) |
| 08:37 |
|
kivilahtio |
drojf: I totally loved it. I feel like I achieved more in the 3 hours i spent installing Koha yesterday than in 3 months of Evergreen |
| 08:37 |
|
drojf |
kivilahtio: 8 months? woah |
| 08:37 |
|
kf |
in terms of localiation |
| 08:37 |
|
kf |
localizations |
| 08:37 |
|
* paul_p |
loves chab (my partner) last quote on our biblibre channel "a good support ticket is a dead support ticket" |
| 08:38 |
|
kivilahtio |
drojf: Yeah we hired a guy to do that localization, but the Evergreen community doesn't play very nice with us |
| 08:38 |
|
kf |
some tend to come back as zombies but ingeneral i agree |
| 08:38 |
|
dcook |
kivilahtio: Evergreen certainly looks intimidating. I keep meaning to install it someday down the road but Koha is pretty straightforward, especially using packages. |
| 08:38 |
|
kivilahtio |
drojf: I guess we are making slow progress that other devs actualyl would make localizable code |
| 08:38 |
|
dcook |
paul_p: lol |
| 08:38 |
|
kf |
hm bit bad that gmcharlt is not around, he knows both communities quite well |
| 08:38 |
|
kivilahtio |
kf: actualyl gmcharlt made a slight suggestion we might take a look at Koha ;) |
| 08:39 |
|
dcook |
He'd be the person who'd know |
| 08:39 |
|
kivilahtio |
kf: back then we decided to take the Evergreen route, but like I said our progress is so poor, we need to re-evaluate |
| 08:40 |
|
paul_p |
kivilahtio I agree, because not being successfull after 2.5years is just insane. |
| 08:40 |
|
paul_p |
(not necessarly because of EG though) |
| 08:40 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: well. 2.5y is not exactly correct. I spent the first 6 months doing data migration to Eg and Koha |
| 08:41 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: then 8 man-months for requirements specification |
| 08:41 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: on the hind-sight we should have outsourced the requirements evaluation |
| 08:41 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: but such is life :) |
| 08:41 |
|
kivilahtio |
so we have been focusing on Eg for maybe 18 months, or 46 man-months |
| 08:42 |
|
kivilahtio |
it is raelly complex |
| 08:42 |
|
kivilahtio |
or we are realyl dumb :) |
| 08:42 |
|
kivilahtio |
i guess a bit both |
| 08:43 |
|
dcook |
Outsourcing requirements evaluation? |
| 08:43 |
|
kf |
i think it takes a while to wrap your mind around an ILS |
| 08:43 |
|
dcook |
Eep |
| 08:43 |
|
dcook |
What kf said ^^ |
| 08:44 |
|
dcook |
Requirements evaluation is a tough one especially in a consortium and with librarians (being a librarian, I'm allowed to say that :P). |
| 08:44 |
|
kivilahtio |
dcook: yeah, we have a checklist of things we need and some process descriptions. Someone who know a system could go through our list of requirements and evaluate how well they match |
| 08:44 |
|
dcook |
Perhaps, although I'm skeptical of requirement documents sometimes... |
| 08:44 |
|
kivilahtio |
kf: Taht has been one of the many challenges |
| 08:45 |
|
dcook |
It's amazing how often a "requirement" is actually a preference or an outmoded practice. |
| 08:45 |
|
dcook |
But yeah...I think you'd be best off submitting your requirements list to some vendors (probably in English) |
| 08:45 |
|
dcook |
magnuse in Norway, slef (?) in the UK, paul_p in France |
| 08:45 |
|
drojf |
dcook: yes, people describing a certain way to do things (like they are used to do it) instead of the goal they want to achieve… |
| 08:46 |
|
dcook |
Exactly |
| 08:46 |
|
paul_p |
dcook (knowing that we've a business partnership with magnus, so at the end we would probably work hand-in-hand -frenchism suspected-) |
| 08:46 |
|
dcook |
I did requirements gathering for a Horizon to Millennium migration for a single branch once. It was...interesting. |
| 08:47 |
|
kivilahtio |
actually there is a national project in Finalnd, to make the ultimate techincal requirements specification for a ILS, they have 500 000€ funding for that |
| 08:47 |
|
paul_p |
drojf = ++ (hélas!) libraries describe how to do instead of which goal they want |
| 08:47 |
|
dcook |
Our branch had one of the nicest migrations of the entire system (306 branches of differing sizes) though, so that made me happy |
| 08:47 |
|
kivilahtio |
apaprently this requirements specification for a library has been a plague of the Finiish ILS scene for ever |
| 08:47 |
|
dcook |
paul_p: Ahh, I didn't know that. That's cool. No Frenchisms that I see either :) |
| 08:47 |
|
kivilahtio |
not that it has anything to do with my project |
| 08:48 |
|
paul_p |
dcook (hand-in-hand is a word to word translation. happy to know it's also english ;-) ) |
| 08:49 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: So you suggest we work with Magnus to re-evaluate Koha, and arrange possible migration support and training? |
| 08:50 |
|
paul_p |
kivilahtio no, I just suggest to work with someone who know. That could be us (BibLibre), Magnus, or anyone else involved in the community. |
| 08:50 |
|
paul_p |
kivilahtio in french, we say "better one who knows that 10 who search" |
| 08:50 |
|
kivilahtio |
paul_p: Experience has taught me as much |
| 08:50 |
|
kivilahtio |
:) |
| 08:50 |
|
dcook |
paul_p: English probably stole it from French :p. main à main? |
| 08:51 |
|
dcook |
Or is that hand to hand... |
| 08:51 |
|
kivilahtio |
:) |
| 08:51 |
|
paul_p |
dcook = main dans la main (dans = in) |
| 08:51 |
|
dcook |
I had the feeling that might be it.. |
| 08:51 |
|
dcook |
I screw up dans and à sometimes. |
| 08:53 |
|
dcook |
I suppose dans is supposed to be more literal.. |
| 08:53 |
|
dcook |
kivilahtio: I think requirements specifications are the plagues of ever ILS scene ;) |
| 08:53 |
|
kivilahtio |
dcook: Seems to be impossible to make one. ILS is just such a huge entity |
| 08:53 |
|
dcook |
True true |
| 08:54 |
|
dcook |
And like you say...many libraries have different localizations which have been introduced over time |
| 08:54 |
|
kivilahtio |
dcook: atleast for me it was rather mind boggling. But doable. I think process diagrams are the best tool |
| 08:54 |
|
dcook |
Yeah, I ended up using flowcharts in the end |
| 08:54 |
|
kivilahtio |
but categorizing different requirements to various modules is hard |
| 08:55 |
|
dcook |
Mapping existing processes and then outlining abstracted ideal ones (and perhaps even how it could in Millennium in some cases...) |
| 08:55 |
|
dcook |
Do you need to categorize them by module? |
| 08:55 |
|
kivilahtio |
well, circluation |
| 08:55 |
|
kivilahtio |
cataloguing, acquisitions, serials ... |
| 08:56 |
|
kivilahtio |
patrons |
| 08:56 |
|
dcook |
Cataloguing as a concept might include cataloguing, acquisitions, authorities, and serials |
| 08:56 |
|
dcook |
Perhaps even circulation |
| 08:56 |
|
kivilahtio |
dcook: we noticed |
| 08:56 |
|
dcook |
hehe |
| 08:56 |
|
dcook |
I think that's also somewhat problematic when you do the ILS evaluations |
| 08:56 |
|
kivilahtio |
comparisons are hard |
| 08:57 |
|
dcook |
Agreed |
| 08:57 |
|
dcook |
I think features also go beyond modules |
| 08:57 |
|
kivilahtio |
but process diagrams are best for that as well |
| 08:57 |
|
dcook |
That is...not all features are necessarily contained in a module per se |
| 08:57 |
|
dcook |
Well... |
| 08:57 |
|
dcook |
For mapping existing processes probably |
| 08:58 |
|
dcook |
Ah, perhaps I misread you |
| 08:58 |
|
kivilahtio |
well we didnt do much process diagrams until we really had to. Our task of learning two library systems was huge and figure out their capabilites, so we just based evaluations on manual entries |
| 08:59 |
|
kivilahtio |
otherwise there would have been no way of sticking to any budget or timeframe |
| 08:59 |
|
kivilahtio |
anyway |
| 08:59 |

kivilahtio |

Can anyone give me a tip about what kind of a library we could run with two servers specced at 128GB RAM, RAID-1 SSD's, 4x quad core 2.4Ghz. + nginx load balancer/web cache |

Hi people |
| 09:34 |
|
vfernandes |
Can anyone help me with some search problems? |
| 09:36 |
|
vfernandes |
I'm getting problems searching for barcodes and callnumbers |
| 09:38 |
|
vfernandes |
if I use keyword search I get 0 results, if I use the specific advanced search fields (callnum and bc) the searches work fine |
| 09:38 |
|
vfernandes |
What could be? |
| 09:39 |
|
paul_p |
kivilahtio = please, give me your server, and I'll be able to run all our Koha libraries with it No doubt ! |
| 09:40 |
|
paul_p |
kivilahtio this server is just crazy if you want my opinion. |
| 09:51 |
|
drojf |
kivilahtio: if you find out it is too much power in the end, ask gmcharlt or rangi about running some automated testing for koha code on a small part of it :) |
| 09:57 |
|
dcook |
^^ |
| 09:57 |
|
dcook |
vfernandes: I'm not sure. Do those callnum and bc searches take you directly to the items or do they give you result lists? |
| 09:57 |

says not really having the time to answer |
| 09:57 |
|
dcook |
Almost done my email...3 hours later... |
| 09:58 |

vfernandes |
bc takes directly to the records, callnum give a result list to searches like "PS" |
| 09:59 |
|
vfernandes |
record.abs 995$f barcode, item |
| 09:59 |
|

i Think this is correct |

look at the last two z:index |

the name looks wrong |
| 10:07 |
|
vfernandes |
could be that? |
| 10:12 |
|
dcook |
Overall, it looks pretty good. Some of the indexes look a bit funny to me but I'm not familiar with UNIMARC (I use MARC21) and I'd have to double-check |
| 10:12 |
|
dcook |
It looks your any index has data in it. I think the keyword uses the any index. |
| 10:14 |
|
dcook |
Although it doesn't look like barcode is in the any index.. |

This seems to have your call number and barcode in it... |
| 10:14 |
|
vfernandes |
0100001491205713 |
| 10:14 |
|
vfernandes |
it's a barcode |
| 10:15 |
|
dcook |
It's probably concatenating all the 995 fields together... |
| 10:15 |
|
vfernandes |
so why I can get any results? |
| 10:16 |
|
dcook |
Probably because each isn't being indexed separately |

Any idea what this is? |

one moment |

"item # just to index every subfield" sould be only "item" |

? |

dcook |
Interesting.. |
| 10:21 |
|
wahanui |
well, interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad |
| 10:21 |
|
dcook |
Yeah, it should just be item |
| 10:21 |
|
dcook |
However, I think there would still be a bug even if it did just say item |
| 10:22 |
|
dcook |
Quick question, how did you show the indexes in yazclient again? |
| 10:22 |
|
dcook |
I very rarely do that and I"ve only successfully done it once |
| 10:22 |
|
vfernandes |
it's reindexing now |
| 10:22 |
|
dcook |
This might help explain: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ng_Zebra_indexing |
| 10:23 |
|
vfernandes |
yaz-client unix:/KOHA_HOME/var/run/zebradb/bibliosocket |
| 10:24 |
|
vfernandes |
then: "base biblio", "form xml", "f @attr 1=1016 "search"", s |
| 10:24 |
|
vfernandes |
connect using the unix file, change to biblios database |
| 10:24 |
|
vfernandes |
then do a search and use "s" to show |
| 10:25 |
|
dcook |
Hmm...that just shows it as marcxml |

Try commenting out "melm 995 item # just to index every subfield" and reindexing |

| 14:09 |
|
gmcharlt |
chris_n: upon skimming, I suspect that it does indeed boil down to out-of-spec numbers; the work that motivated the introduction of L::C::LC came with specific examples of real live call numbers |
| 14:09 |
|
nengard |
okay .... what are tuits |
| 14:10 |
|

| 14:11 |
|
gmcharlt |
chris_n: a not-likely-to-get-around-to-any-time-soon, at least -- after alll, the architecture does support somebody writing a funky_LCCN sorter |
| 14:11 |
|
nengard |
wait a second - the splitter is adding in characters - it's adding in spaces and dots ... how is that a good thing? |
| 14:12 |
|
chris_n |
I think the odds of being able to parse all sorts of version of LCCNs is remote at best |
| 14:12 |
|
nengard |
then it should go back to the way it was |
| 14:12 |
|
nengard |
cause it worked for most libraries then |
| 14:12 |
|
chris_n |
nengard: that module "normalizes" LCCNs |
| 14:12 |
|
gmcharlt |
nengard: the bug reporter is not following standard LCCN practice -- how is that a good thing? |
| 14:12 |
|
gmcharlt |
I don't mean that entirely seriously, but there is just a bit of GIGO going on here IMO |
| 14:13 |
|
nengard |
yeah, but there are rules that allow for adding prefixes |
| 14:13 |
|
nengard |
and suffixes to your call numbers |
| 14:15 |
|
gmcharlt |
chris_n: nengard: I do see enough here to convince me that a non-normalizing version of L::C::LC->components() is worth asking for -- and I know just the person to bug about it |
| 14:15 |
|
nengard |

dbwells, actually |
| 14:16 |

| 14:16 |
|
chris_n |
gmcharlt: the components method could also be made to consider any rules which permit prefixes and suffixes |
| 14:16 |

chris_n |
forcing uc should probably be an option in any case |
| 14:17 |

nengard: the other important point this bug brings up is the need of properly setting the call number source at the item level |
| 14:28 |

Here it is. |

| 14:28 |
|
nengard |
chris_n - didn't they say that they had it set to LCC? |
| 14:28 |
|
chris_n |
otherwise they are all split as whatever the default CN system is set to |
| 14:28 |
|
jcamins |
Wait... no, that's just the leader. |
| 14:29 |
|
chris_n |
nengard: there are three options at present I think; let me look |
| 14:29 |
|
nengard |
are you saying instead it should be a 'custom' |
| 14:29 |
|
nengard |
There are more than 3 |
| 14:29 |
|
gmcharlt |
jcamins: there isn't actually an equivalent of $record->to_charset() |
| 14:29 |
|
gmcharlt |
which is a hole to be filled, yes |
| 14:29 |
|
nengard |
there is Dewey, LCC, Sudoc, Generic ... i think there might be more than that |
| 14:30 |
|
jcamins |
Bah humbug. |
| 14:30 |
|
gmcharlt |
MARC::File::XML does know how to transcode, though, so you can do the iso2709->marcxml->utf8 route that way |
| 14:30 |
|

phred_ joined #koha |

gmcharlt |
nengard: I think what chris_n is saying is that the call number class is not just a global setting |
| 14:30 |
|
jcamins |
That'll work. |
| 14:30 |
|
gmcharlt |
each item can specify what it's correct call number type is |
| 14:31 |
|
chris_n |
nengard: the underlying code allows for lcc, nlm, ddc, and then falls back to the ccn (custom call number split) |
| 14:31 |
|
chris_n |
the custom simply splits on spaces I think |
| 14:32 |
|
* chris_n |
is not sure what nlm is |
| 14:32 |
|
gmcharlt |
and lcc is the same as nlm (or should be) for splitting purposes |
| 14:32 |
|
chris_n |
it is |
| 14:32 |
|
gmcharlt |
National Library of Medicine |
| 14:32 |
|
gmcharlt |
they use a variation of LCCN |
| 14:33 |
|
nengard |
k |
| 14:33 |
|
nengard |
so instead of LCC everyone should choose CCN if they want it to split the way they expect it to |
| 14:33 |
|
Joubu |
thanks oleonard-away for signing off and the followup! |
| 14:33 |
|
nengard |
which isn't quite right cause it's supposed to split at the dots too |
| 14:34 |
|
nengard |
and you said it only splits at spaces |
| 14:34 |
|
chris_n |
nengard: ccn will split on spaces |
| 14:34 |
|
chris_n |
actually not just on spaces |
| 14:34 |
|
chris_n |
hold on |
| 14:35 |

| 14:35 |
|
gmcharlt |
nengard: please don't make a general recommendation for folks to set it to anything other than LCC for the LC call numbers |
| 14:35 |
|
gmcharlt |
that only invites longer term problems |

| 14:38 |
|
jcamins |
... not that I'm surprised. |
| 14:39 |
|
chris_n |
the way the code is currently written, ccn is a fall back for when lcc or ddc fails to split (which is probably very seldom in reality) |
| 14:39 |
|
chris_n |
but I suppose that we could entertain a system preference which would permit users to cook up their own splitting regexp to be applied if they so chose |
| 14:40 |
|
chris_n |
but that may create more problems than it solves |
| 14:41 |

Silly chris_n... what could possibly go wrong? (computer explodes in flames) |

While reading the implementation checklist, I noticed custom patron fields. I remember we loved that attribute, but I am curious whther or not you use SSNs with your patron records? |
| 14:55 |

do you need to store your patrons SSNs? |
| 14:55 |

ssn? |

kivilahtio: I generally try to persuade my libraries not to. |
| 14:55 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins: we too, but they don't want to lose the SSN |
| 14:55 |
|
kivilahtio |
I think it has to do with accountability |
| 14:55 |
|
jcamins |
I know of libraries that use extended patron attributes for SSN. |
| 14:56 |
|
kivilahtio |
and the fear that they never can fine patrons who won't return books |
| 14:56 |
|
kivilahtio |

For me, the accountability of having the SSN available for librarians and disgruntled student employees to steal greatly outweighs the accountability of being able to look up SSN. |
| 14:57 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins: I guess there is no way of hiding the SSN from unauthorized librarians? |
| 14:57 |

It is as secure as your server. It's all available to anyone with the permissions to view it. |

Thanks, I see the problem |

lazy question: how are items marked as "in transit" (in the database) |
| 15:51 |
|
magnuse |
? |
| 15:54 |
|
magnuse |
or to put it another way: how can i write sql that finds items that are in transit? |
| 15:57 |
|
kf |
transfers table or T |
| 16:00 |
|
* oleonard |
will be back for the meeting |
| 16:06 |
|
magnuse |
kf: T? |
| 16:06 |
|

T is for unit tests like functionality stuffs |
| 16:06 |

The "protocol" meeting for the cPanel conference was about useless. |
| 16:33 |
|
druthb |
"don't miss the bus, be on time for your preso, wear your fancy polo. oh, and don't pee in the gutter in NOLA. They arrest people for that there. |
| 16:35 |
|
druthb |
(implying, of course, that a) this is a problem, and b) they *don't* arrest people for that in Houston.) |

rambutan |
I was thinking those same implications :) |

cait |
thx :) |
| 18:16 |
|
gmcharlt |
new features that have /not/ hit passed QA by feature slush are more liable to be left for the next release; if you want something that misses slush to make it in, you'll need to advocate for it |
| 18:16 |
|
thd |
Why does slush have the name slush? |
| 18:16 |
|
gmcharlt |
a partial freeze, of course |
| 18:17 |

OK |

also, another announcement -- I did not, of course, actually do a tarball of a pre-pre-alpha |

instaed, I'll do so shortly after feature freeze |

Topic for #koha is now QA sprint day (Meeting topic: General IRC Meeting) |
| 18:23 |

cait |
we had a qa team meeting and discussed some ideas on how to get things moving and flowing a bit better |
| 18:23 |

mtj++ has added a wiki page for it and i hope that lots of QA will be done |
| 18:24 |
|
cait |
but right now I think the needs sign off queue needs some work too... |
| 18:24 |
|
tcohen |
sounds great, can we non-QA people help? |
| 18:24 |
|
cait |
and for the big features you want to see moved through qa a second sign off would make help |
| 18:24 |
|
cait |
or third.. fourth... |
| 18:25 |
|
cait |
best with some notes what you looked at |
| 18:25 |
|
cait |
there are some pretty big patches in the qa queue right now that take a lot of time testing |
| 18:26 |
|
cait |
so it's not a GBSD - but with 169 bugs in needs signoff... and 51 of that bugs... |
| 18:26 |
|
cait |
please feel free to test test test everything you can get your hands on :) |
| 18:26 |
|
mtompset |
But will it be coordinated after GBSD's in the future? |
| 18:27 |

it's something new we try out, we will have to see how it goes I think |

tajoli: I think I have seen her name on some patches already? |
| 18:31 |

But she doesn't have a big knowldge of Koha |
| 18:31 |
|
cait |
or maybe i confuse her |
| 18:31 |
|
tajoli |
She stritly follow the plan inside |
| 18:32 |

maybe she can note that - or she can drop on irc and ask if there is something she is not sure about |
| 18:32 |
|
cait |
or just note on the bug :) |
| 18:32 |
|
tajoli |
she worked heavly on waterfall metodology |
| 18:33 |
|
tajoli |
so, if you receive an email from her, answer as longer as you can |
| 18:34 |
|
tajoli |
I think that in some month she could stard to write unit test also |
| 18:34 |
|
tajoli |
but not now |
| 18:35 |
|

So if tomorrow you have a simple 'sign off', write me and I send it to her |

for the offline module, there's nothing intuitive to indicate to users to log out |
| 20:01 |
|
rambutan |
there's just the usual "log out" but that's if you are connected to koha live |
| 20:01 |
|
jcamins |
Hmmm. |
| 20:01 |
|
rambutan |
wonder if there should be (or is?) some way to indicate that? |
| 20:01 |
|
jcamins |
That's a good point. |
| 20:02 |
|
jcamins |
It didn't occur to me because I am used to the "dead circ desk connection" situation, where logging off is unnecessary. |
| 20:02 |
|
jcamins |
Of course, the problem is if there's an offline log off feature, there's no way to log back on if you realize you didn't mean to. |

hm how woud you name a section on the wiki page for 'who is working on what right now'? |
| 20:04 |
|
jcamins |
What about a message "Are you sure you want to log out? Once you log out, you will not be able to log in again until you have a connection to your server." |
| 20:04 |
|
quoc_uy |
hi jcamins, how are u? |

jcamins |
That's the disadvantage with the fixed times. |
| 20:06 |
|
cait |
i called it: What we are working on right now... |
| 20:06 |
|
jcamins |
cait: that works. |
| 20:06 |
|
rambutan |
jcamins: no, thinking of bookmobile stops... |
| 20:07 |
|
rambutan |
when you complete transactions at one stop/location, the users aren't sure what to do, instinctively they want to "logout" before shutting down the computer... |
| 20:07 |
|
jcamins |
Ohhh. |
| 20:07 |
|
jcamins |
I see. |
| 20:07 |
|
rambutan |
and going to the next stop, where they want to "logon" again, lather, rinse, repeat |
| 20:08 |
|
jcamins |
So maybe the best option would be something that checks if you're online, and if you're not says "sorry, you cannot log out while offline"? |
| 20:09 |
|
rambutan |
or something that simply says: "there is no need to logout in the offline module, simply close the browser?????) .... not sure |
| 20:09 |
|
jcamins |
I guess I could also just hide the logout button. |
| 20:10 |
|
rambutan |
now having said all that, we did this testing again and can't find the transactions to sync "not found". What did we do before to get them back? |
| 20:10 |
|
rambutan |
closing the browser and restarting the computer nukes them |
| 20:11 |
|
jcamins |
Do you have some sort of privacy plugin that wipes the browser's settings? |
| 20:11 |
|
rambutan |
no |
| 20:11 |
|
jcamins |
And you tried clicking the "Upload transactions" button even though it says "No transactions to upload"? |
| 20:12 |
|
rambutan |
yea, and it says no transactions found, just like before |
| 20:13 |
|

Last time all we had to do was click that button, and then go to "pending offline circulation actions." |
| 20:15 |
|
rambutan |
that's what I thought too, but it doesn't work this time. Maybe we need the new set of files... |
| 20:16 |
|
jcamins |
I suspect you may, but I have a thought about what the problem is. |
| 20:16 |
|
jcamins |
If you go to the home page of your staff client, are you logged in? |
| 20:18 |
|
rambutan |
well, standby. We decided to do a reboot and now we have to wait for MS to install 5 updates. <bad bad words invoked here> |
| 20:18 |
|

but yes, we were logged in when attempting to sync |

That shouldn't make a difference, as I made it a point of testing under Windows, but if you have anti-virus, that may do things to it. |

I tried a bunch of variations on "sorry, you can't log out because you're offline" dialogs, but they felt counterintuitive because why am I looking at a logout button if logging out isn't permitted? |

BTW, we've confirmed the transactions load fine on linux (Mint), tomorrow I'm going to work more w/ J on the windows side, but now I'm less concerned about it |
| 22:17 |
|
jcamins |
Do you have any anti-virus? |
| 22:18 |
|
jcamins |
I can't explain exactly why anti-virus would cause an issue, but my gut instinct is that I may have overlooked more aggressive anti-virus systems. |

Kaspersky |

So I click on a "Braille" facet and the first book that comes up is illustrated... |
| 23:03 |
|
jcamins |
dcook: that's kind of ironic. |
| 23:03 |
|
dcook |
hehe |
| 23:04 |
|
dcook |
Actually, this catalogue is quite weird.. |
| 23:05 |
|
dcook |
Braille is a subfacet of Book...but other items than just books have the Braille subfacet... |
| 23:05 |
|
dcook |
Or rather, are retrieved by clicking the Braille subfacet |
| 23:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
ah that is hilarious eythian |
| 23:05 |
|
dcook |
Book (14) Braille (26) |
| 23:05 |
|
dcook |
O_o |
| 23:08 |
|
dcook |
Oh well. It's not Koha. I don't really care atm. |
| 23:08 |
|
jcamins |
Heh. |
| 23:09 |
|
dcook |
Just realized the title of that "braille" book was "How to lie with statistics" |
| 23:09 |
|
* dcook |
looks around for the tv cameras |
| 23:11 |
|
dcook |
Aha...there is a braille version |
| 23:11 |
|
dcook |
But it doesn't show that edition when you click through from the braille facet... |
| 23:11 |

Shari wants custard. Does anyone have any fast, foolproof stove-top custard recipes they recommend? |
| 23:56 |
|
jcamins |
wizzyrea: by "does anyone" I mean, "does wizzyrea?" :) |
| 23:56 |
|
jcamins |
(if anyone else has a favorite recipe, I'd use that, too, I just think wizzyrea has made fast, foolproof stovetop custard before) |
