06:16 paxed cait: re bug 12132 a staffer commented here: "So they assume librarians are old maids and crazy cat ladies with no kids?"
06:16 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=12132 trivial, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Show guarantees in staff patron details too
06:16 cait no just using separate accounts
06:17 cait well we do that
06:17 cait so they can check out books for work related tasks and have a personal account for other things - but not all libraries do that, that's why the other bug
06:18 cait i justthought you might have to task other bits in the code to really make that work consistently, and we would have to update documentation
06:18 cait this is about the behaviour about the patron category - categories
06:18 cait currently adult > child, organisation > professional
06:18 cait for linking records
06:20 paxed consistency is showing guarantees when the person has those.
06:21 paxed if you have separate staff and personal accounts, then your staff account should not have guarantees, just your personal one.
06:22 cait yes
06:22 reiveune joined #koha
06:22 reiveune hello
06:22 wahanui privet, reiveune
06:22 cait you can look at this from 2 sides as a bug
06:23 cait some would say the intended feature was not for them to have children, others the other way
06:23 cait but it should be consistent
06:24 paxed no matter what the intention was, because it doesn't do that and behaves inconsistently. my patch fixes that inconsistency.
06:26 cait i am all for consistency
06:27 cait ok, have to run :)

07:37 thuthuy joined #koha
07:39 thuthuy I want to ask the difference between Koha 3.12 and Koha 3.8?
07:47 ashimema did last nights meeting happen at all then..
07:47 ashimema doesn't look like it.
07:48 ashimema morning #koha
07:51 thuthuy joined #koha
07:53 cait joined #koha
07:56 BobB @later tell thuthuy Koha 3.12 has more features, a number of bug fixes and will be supported longer than Koha 3.8.  Go with 3.12 (or 3.14)
07:56 huginn BobB: The operation succeeded.
07:58 thuthuy Can you say more detail?
07:58 ashimema thuthuy, why not take a look at the release notes for the two?
07:59 ashimema http://koha-community.org/koha-3-14-0-released/
07:59 ashimema http://koha-community.org/koha-3-8-0-released/
08:00 ashimema though, you'll probably also want to look at the major release between too
08:00 ashimema http://koha-community.org/koha-3-10-0-released/
08:00 ashimema http://koha-community.org/koha-3-12-0-released/
08:00 BobB yep, the release notes list all the new features
08:02 BobB good night #koha
08:02 ashimema night BobB
08:02 ashimema or... if your technically minded and feel like sifitng through 'ALLOT' of logs..
08:03 ashimema then you could checkout a 3.12 branch and read back through the commit log..
08:03 ashimema the release notes are created from the commit log anyways.
08:09 thuthuy <ashimema> I see that but it is not clear
08:11 thuthuy smile :)
08:22 thuthuy Thanks you <BobB> and <ashimema>
08:23 ashimema no worries.. sorry we couldn't be of more help (just show that neither of us knows koha well enough to put a finger on the differences specifically either)
08:23 ashimema I'de have to go through the release notes too ;)
08:24 ashimema paul_p wrote a script that did 'nicer' release notes at some point.. think it was only used for one release though :(
08:24 ashimema though I have a feeling it took some manual intervention to look as nice as they did..
08:25 thuthuy ashimema> humble
08:26 paul_p joined #koha
08:26 thuthuy ok
08:27 ashimema paul_p.. I was just talking about you.. ;)
08:27 ashimema you did some lovely release notes once..
08:27 paul_p ashimema yep. (automated)
08:27 paul_p I've added an option --html to release tools
08:27 paul_p (iirc)
08:28 ashimema thuthuy was just trying to get to grips with the differences between a couple of versions.. I thought your html style notes might help
08:28 ashimema cool.. shame they don't appear to have been used much since. :(
08:29 paul_p ashimema = http://git.koha-community.org/[…]ls.git;a=shortlog
08:30 paul_p ashimema right (I failed to communicate more on that...)
08:30 ashimema cool.. cheers.
08:30 paul_p I should have warned RM and RMAints
08:30 thuthuy you can use facebook?
08:30 ashimema maybe we should have another go at promoting it.
08:30 paul_p yep
08:31 thuthuy oh
08:31 thuthuy <paul_p> excellent
08:32 thuthuy ok
08:33 thuthuy we are developing koha in Vietnam
08:33 ashimema developing?
08:33 ashimema or promoting
08:33 paul_p hi thuthuy ! (our administrative assistant is vietnamese, you could speak your language with her ;-) )
08:35 thuthuy <ashimema> developing
08:35 thuthuy oh
08:36 thuthuy surprise
08:36 ashimema if your developing.. then you should really be developing against master and contributing back?
08:36 thuthuy ok
08:36 ashimema wondering where the question of whats the difference between versions came from ;)
08:37 ashimema awesome to hear there's another developer out there though
08:37 thuthuy :)
08:39 thuthuy We supports community for use koha in vietnam
08:39 ashimema cool.
08:41 thuthuy we translated vietnamese 3.12
08:41 thuthuy koha 3.12
08:41 wahanui koha 3.12 is probably still on schedule.
08:42 thuthuy and share Koha users in Vietnam
08:43 thuthuy <wahanui> yes
08:45 ashimema thuthuy, wahanui's a bot.. ignore him ;)
08:46 thuthuy ?
08:46 thuthuy why?
08:51 thuthuy <ashimema>
09:07 kmlussier joined #koha
09:11 paul_p thuthuy = wahanui is a bot, not a real human. He usually says silly things, but can anser some basic questions. Don't hesitate to say "shut up" if he becomes too noisy, he won't be upset :D :D
09:11 paul_p good morning wahanui
09:11 paul_p wahanui good morning
09:11 wahanui paul_p: i'm not following you...
09:11 paul_p wahanui next release ?
09:11 wahanui paul_p: no idea
09:11 paul_p really stupid :D
09:12 paul_p wahanui seen rangi ?
09:12 wahanui rangi was last seen on #koha 7 days, 12 hours, 42 minutes and 39 seconds ago, saying: just that first paragraph is from the old article [Wed Apr 16 20:29:27 2014]
09:12 thuthuy :)

09:44 atheia G'morning
09:45 atheia cait: I haven't yet thanked you for the qa of the housebound patches.
09:45 atheia Thanks very much — really helpful feedback.
09:45 atheia We will in fact be splitting it into the 'previous issue?' functionality and the rest.
09:48 cait atheia: i was a little woried you'd never talk with me again :)
09:50 atheia Not at all — tbh, I agree with all points. It's good to spend some more time on it.
09:52 cait atheia: I am glad, I was aiming for helpful/constructive, but just couldn't get over the hardcoded categories
10:27 kivilahtio is there a script in Koha to batch import records in a ISO2709 format?
10:28 kivilahtio I am trying to understand stage-marc-import.pl, and I realized there is a webservice to import MARCXML
10:29 kivilahtio just wondering if anyone has done something similar, or maybe I can just use BatchStageMarcRecords()?
10:30 kivilahtio Oh yeah, one important thing. I am trying to stage a MARC file. Not directly import to db, but into the staged records tables.
10:31 kivilahtio Maybe kohaclone/misc/stage_file? :)
10:32 fridolin joined #koha

10:38 kmlussier left #koha
10:45 ashimema stage_file is the one kivilahtio
10:46 ashimema I'de love to see bulkmarcimport and stage_file merged into one eventually.. as their features differ but are comparable
10:46 ashimema buldmarkimport in your case isn't the one.. as it imort directly, not via the staging table
10:47 kivilahtio ashimema: Thanks!
10:47 kivilahtio I am writing a integration module to our bookseller
10:47 kivilahtio luckily it is quite straightforward
10:47 ashimema cool..
10:47 ashimema not edi related I assume?
10:48 ashimema the edi patch also pulls in skelaton records ;)
10:48 ashimema anywho.. good luck
10:48 kivilahtio nope. we send our basketgroups to their ftp-server. Get replies from their ftp-server. And push selection lists from their ftp-server as ISO2709 to staged lists
10:48 kivilahtio then do acquisitions fromthose staged lists
10:48 kivilahtio works quite well
10:48 kivilahtio ashimema: we need it :)
10:48 kivilahtio keep up the good fight!
10:51 ashimema sounds very similar to edi workflow interestingly enough.. edi is all ftp based, with files getting pushed and pulled from the vendors ftp server.
10:52 ashimema yeah, we're getting closer every day at the moment..
10:52 ashimema Colin is meant to be squshing it all into a sensible patch to post back up again iminently.

13:08 cait oleonard: it seemed there ws nooone around interested in holding it
13:08 oleonard Fair enough.
13:13 * druthb blames oleonard.
13:13 oleonard It's true druthb, I was not there. It's no wonder.
13:14 druthb right?  If you'd spread the word you were going to be there, others would have, too, just to see your smilin' face.
13:16 oleonard :|
13:17 cait not that face actually
13:17 cait i was still awake, but it was past midnight
13:27 ashimema I couldn't make the second one.. was cooking tea
13:27 ashimema shame it didn't happen at all.
13:28 rangi im feeling a little condescended to here
13:28 rangi not intentionally im sure
13:28 oleonard You personally rangi or the tone in general?
13:29 rangi developers
13:29 wahanui the brains that make Koha grow and get better. Give them cookies. Lots of cookies. And possibly beer.
13:29 rangi we dont understand business
13:29 rangi or CRM or stuff
13:29 cait oh you don't?
13:29 oleonard Well sure rangi that's why none of us have jobs.
13:29 Dyrcona Heh. Most MBAs don't understand business. ;)
13:29 cait we librairans would disgree with that :)
13:31 * cait wishes she coudl clone some more qa people
13:32 ashimema we could do with a few more QA..
13:32 ashimema always need more ;)
13:33 rangi apparently not we just like  technology
13:33 rangi and im super lagged
13:34 ashimema so how come there are support companies making money out here then?
13:34 rangi i think i can address it tomorrow in my talk, i think koha and maybe evergreen are different to the projects that have been talked about so far
13:35 ashimema go get 'em rangi ;)
13:35 * Dyrcona is a developer with a MLS.
13:35 Dyrcona So there's one, at least. ;)
13:36 kmlussier Dyrcona: But where's your MBA? ;)
13:36 rangi right we have to go break out now
13:36 * rangi fights the urge to break dance to the break out rooms
13:37 kmlussier rangi: I would like to see that.
13:37 rangi you really wouldnt :)
13:37 rangi bbiab
13:37 cait kmlussier: if he does... make photos, please?

14:08 tcohen gmcharlt: it seems to me that the database/env for building 3.14 (jenkins) has some trouble
14:08 tcohen i cannot seem to reproduce the failing tests on my workstation
14:19 gmcharlt tcohen: hmm, the 3.14.x project seems to be pointing at master
14:19 gmcharlt I'll need to look at it later
14:19 tcohen np, let me know if i can do something about it
14:34 Joubu khall: around?
14:34 khall yo
14:35 Joubu khall: Hello! I think I found a problem with bug 2720. The updatedb entry does not remove the borrower.debarred value
14:35 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=2720 enhancement, P3, ---, fridolyn.somers, Pushed to Master , Overdues which debar automatically should undebar automatically when returned
14:36 Joubu so if the date is passed, the suspension alert is displayed
14:36 Joubu I get: "Restricted: Patron's account is restricted until 10/01/2014
14:37 Joubu khall: do you confirm we should clean this field for all patrons?
14:37 khall gimme a couple minutes to take a look
14:41 nengard joined #koha
14:42 Joubu hum, I don't understand, the circ/circulation.tt test "userdebarred" to display this alert. And it comes from member->{debarred}, returned by GetMemberDetails (which does a select into borrowers. Why don't we check borrower_debarments?
14:42 Joubu Note: I'm on 3.14.4
14:44 Joubu No, I remember :) The field is kept to avoid to parse the borrower_debarments table !
14:45 Joubu but a check is missing somewhere
14:45 tcohen is anyone working on implementing permissions per user-type?
14:46 ashimema not that I've heard tcohen..
14:46 ashimema would be a nice addition though ;)
14:46 tcohen indeed
14:46 Joubu tcohen: nothing as for me
14:47 tcohen someone in the koha-es list asked how much money should they raise to sponsor such a feature
14:47 * oleonard imagines it would be a big change
14:49 tcohen i'm not sure how big it would be
14:49 Joubu tcohen: you could imagine default permissions, same as Default messaging preferences.
14:50 Joubu with a script (cronjob) updating the patron when you change the permissions
14:51 tcohen i was thinking more like generalizing the current flags use for patrons, and patron categories
14:52 tcohen and using the same logic from Auth.pm for checking first the user permissions, and if fails then category permission
14:53 Joubu tcohen: yes, this way is the big change, I would say
14:53 Joubu (and cleaner than the solution I propose)
14:54 ashimema i like tcohens suggestion.. but agree it's a harder thing to achieve.
14:54 ashimema how hard though.. I'm unsure.
15:00 Joubu khall: I confirm. I think a updatedb entry should be enough
15:00 khall Joubu: the suspension alert should not come up if borrowers.debarred is a date in the past. And it should not be cleared out, it shoud be the furthest date in the future from borrower_debarments for that patron, or null
15:01 Joubu khall: so it should not be a date in the past?
15:01 tgoat joined #koha
15:02 Joubu khall: I think something like
15:02 Joubu update borrowers set debarred = null where debarred is not null and debarred < NOW()
15:02 Joubu should have been added to the updatedb for 2720
15:02 Rubens joined #koha
15:02 khall yes, that would not hurt to add
15:02 khall that's a good idea
15:03 Joubu and maybe a check in the circulation script, but that should not append
15:03 Joubu khall: Do you agree that borrowers.debarred should NEVER contain a date in the past?
15:04 khall Joubu: I do not agree ; )
15:04 khall If the date is in the past, the system should ignore it and tell you the patron is debarred. Isn't that how it acted before the new debarments system?
15:05 cait hm don't think so
15:05 khall I meant if the date is in the past, the system should ignore it and *not* tell you the patron is debarred
15:05 cait yep
15:05 cait have to run, bye all :)
15:05 khall bye!

15:06 Rubens Hi, I have a database in ISAD-G standard for archival desccripcion, we are in the process of migration to KOHA and MARC21. I think the next step is to create a custom framework set to ISAD-G and then import in koha... is correct?
15:06 khall because borrower.debarred is only updated when a change is made to the borrower_debarments table

15:07 Joubu khall: yes, it what _UpdateBorrowerDebarmentFlags does
15:07 Joubu it does not fill the borr.debarred field
15:07 Joubu khall: yep indeed
15:07 Joubu so, a check is missing in the pl script?
15:09 khall yep
15:09 khall or it could be checked at the TT level
15:10 Joubu khall: compare dates in TT ?
15:11 Rubens Hi, I have a database in ISAD-G standard for archival description, we are in the process of migration to KOHA and MARC21. I think the next step is to create a custom framework set to ISAD-G and then import in koha is correct ....
15:11 khall Joubu: I think it's probably better to just do it in circulation.pl
15:12 khall at 268 add in if check to see if borrowers.debarred is in the past before setting that userdebarred param
15:13 Joubu khall: Koha::Borrower::Debarments::IsDebarred is wrong too!
15:13 francharb joined #koha
15:13 khall Joubu: indeed it is!
15:14 Joubu khall: maybe the best way todo is to fix this routine
15:15 khall yep, but it still won't fix the bug in circulation.pl
15:15 Joubu But I need a quick fix, a customer is blocked in production. I don't know what to do...
15:15 khall is there a bug number? I can file a patch asap
15:16 khall in my test, circulation isn't actually blocked, is it for you? I just get a warning
15:16 Joubu khall: yep, but we could sent to the template userdebarred =>IsDebarred($borrnum)
15:16 khall that works for me!
15:19 Joubu khall: when I check an item out, I get:
15:19 Joubu Patron has had overdue items and is blocked for 2014-01-10 day(s).
15:19 Joubu the patron does not have overdue
15:19 khall ahh, I didn't go that far
15:20 Joubu I think it is CanBookBeIssued which call IsMemberBlocked which call IsDebarred (which is broken)
15:21 khall I have a patch ready, is there a bug for me to put it on?

15:42 rangi the eternal problem of people using commercial when they mean proprietary .. every single conference
15:48 liw rangi, *nod*
15:48 rangi the only real solution to the costs of answering rfp is to realise that rfp are an incredibly bad way to procure software
15:48 liw rangi, it's because proprietary is hard to type and pronounce! :)
15:48 rangi anything else is a band aid
16:09 gaetan_B bye!
16:09 ashimema yowsers that flags stuff isn't pretty
16:11 oleonard I get the feeling adding times to the display of date due in the OPAC is going to make some patrons scared and confused.
16:12 oleonard ...but I don't know how else to handle the hourly loans possibility than showing the time for all checkouts.
16:13 ashimema could you limit the display based upon whether the itemtype is loanable hourly or not?
16:14 oleonard I imagine that would be a tedious and costly check to go through for every checkout displayed on a patron's account.
16:15 ashimema or a jscript hack to display only date if time is 23:59?
16:15 ashimema that's not perfect.. but would catch most cases right/
16:15 ashimema ?
16:17 oleonard I'm so jaded that I assume that plan would backfire when hourly loans which *really were due at 23:59* got hidden :|
16:17 ashimema indeed.. it would..
16:17 ashimema but... how often is that acutally going to happen
16:18 ashimema hence, the 'not perfect' comment ;)

18:05 rangi it shortcuts about 6 months of conversations :)
18:05 * kmlussier will read it.
18:06 tcohen oleonard: should I put my new classes selectors and styles in opac.less, generate and commit them?
18:06 liw that book robbed me off a short, but lucrative, consulting gig, it's that good
18:06 oleonard tcohen: Yes. CSS changes are made to the .less file, and opac.css is generated from that.
18:07 tcohen and the generated css is part of the patch
18:07 oleonard Yes.
18:09 tcohen should I use --yui-compress?
18:09 bag oh hey there rangi
18:10 rangi heya
18:10 oleonard tcohen: or "--compress" if your LESS compiler is up to date.
18:16 tcohen oleonard: would you place a .facet-count selector inside the #search-facets block?
18:18 oleonard I don't understand the question tcohen
18:18 tcohen does nesting need reflect the DOM structure?
18:18 rangi john brice is up now bag, hes doing a pretty decent talk, given his slides didnt work
18:19 bag sweet
18:19 oleonard tcohen: Oh, in the LESS file?
18:19 bag go John Brice - khall will be excited
18:19 tcohen yes
18:19 rangi yep libki got a shout out
18:20 oleonard tcohen: It's optional depending on the specificity you want. LESS will generate a specific selector based on the nesting.
18:21 oleonard #search-facets .facet-count {} if it's nested, just .facet-count if it's not
18:21 tcohen thanks
18:21 khall sweet!

20:26 pianohacker atheia: close enough :)
20:27 rangi we have goals, that are kinda set
20:27 rangi but they are goals, sometimes they happen, sometimes they dont
20:28 rangi eg http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]or_RM_3_18_tcohen
20:28 cait i tihnk more likely to happen if there is a person who nudges people on
20:29 rangi the probably with roadmaps, is it presupposes the developers know what the community wants
20:29 rangi which works for mozilla
20:30 kmlussier1 rangi: Yes, that was the point I was trying to make.
20:30 rangi it doesnt work for ILS
20:30 kmlussier1 Your goals look something similar to what bshum put out there with his RM proposal.
20:30 rangi *nod*
20:30 rangi so we set new goals each 6 months

22:56 mtompset Can anyone point me at a place to get a datepicker in the OPAC?
22:56 mtompset I think I have a patch for the request on the list.
22:56 mtompset But I need to test it.
22:59 bag how about suspending a hold
22:59 mtompset And how do I do that?
23:25 mtompset Oh well, if anyone knows how to trigger a date picker in OPAC, please look at bug 12137. :)
23:25 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=12137 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, mtompset, Needs Signoff , Extend CalendarFirstDayOfWeek to be any day
23:33 Dyrcona joined #koha
23:34 pianohacker mtompset: user-is-always-right aside, do you have any idea why they'd want to do that?
23:35 mtompset No, but then again, I don't see why there should be a need for a difference in Sunday, Monday either. I suspect it is a culturally oriented thing.
23:36 mtompset so, why not just go all the way, right? :)
23:39 mtompset Consider that Sabbath for Jews is really Friday Night to Saturday Night, but we call it Saturday. But Saturday Night and Sunday Morning would then be Sunday, but is it really Saturday or is it Sunday? The whole 12 hour shift, because we got a 24 hour day (day and night vs night and day) mixed up.
23:40 pianohacker not confusing at all
23:43 mtompset So, I figure, perhaps there is something like that going on. Not to mention, why shouldn't the option be more flexible?
23:43 mtompset The datepicker is. Why not Koha?
23:49 pianohacker too much flexibility can be a bad thing, but if someone's asking for a third option we might as well give them all
23:57 mtompset It's a pretty small patch.
