01:30 wizzyrea facepalm?
01:30 wahanui facepalm is probably a tiny member of the Arecaceae family whose preference for warm, humid environments makes it a perfect choice for cultivation in the human nasal cavity.
01:30 wizzyrea facepalm?
01:30 wahanui i guess facepalm is a tiny member of the Arecaceae family whose preference for warm, humid environments makes it a perfect choice for cultivation in the human nasal cavity.
01:30 wizzyrea sigh.

02:54 mtj hey #koha, is a PREDUE notice an 'overdue' type notice?
02:54 wizzyrea nope
02:54 wizzyrea it's an enhanced messaging preferences type of notices
02:54 mtj aah, ta wiz :)
02:54 wizzyrea notice*
02:54 wizzyrea or wait, what do you mean, you mean when you are defining it?
02:55 mtj basically...
02:55 wahanui basically is all but closed/wontfix/invalid
02:55 mtj "Important
02:55 mtj These new tags only work on the overdue notices, not other circulation related notices at this time."
02:55 wizzyrea it's a module circulation one
02:55 mtj from.. http://manual.koha-community.o[…]html#noticemarkup
02:55 wizzyrea right, yep, it's not one of those
02:55 mtj ok :)
02:56 wizzyrea there ought to be a good way to differentiate those besides how they are described there. :/
02:56 wizzyrea well you know, any notice can be an overdue notice, as long as it is the overdue system that's sending it
02:56 wizzyrea but that's not really clear either.
02:57 wizzyrea but to be absolutely clear: predue isn't, normally, an overdue
03:00 mtj thanks liz, i'm a bit rusty on all that stuff

14:52 asma *will

16:49 tcohen i expect to have my house built by march :-D
16:49 bag great news :)  construction is going well?
16:49 tcohen yeah, a bit slow at the beggining, but got lots of momentum right now

16:55 bag asado
16:55 bag ummmm
16:55 bag mmm
16:56 cait asadoooo
16:56 cait are you ok with the date? i can try to emai lthe mailing list.. i need to make slides, it's welcome procrastination :)
16:59 tcohen http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ki/Roles_for_3.24
16:59 cait cool thanks
16:59 * tcohen fears *freedom*
17:00 cait you fear the freedm?
17:00 cait can i just write 'will be on 4th' or do we need to have some kind of vote
17:00 cait ?
17:01 tcohen I think so
17:02 tcohen i thought we could leave that open, and if we filled all mandatory roles, then add it to the meeting agenda, otherwise, we can just have a special voting session
17:03 tcohen but I have no strong preference
17:04 cait sometimes without a 'deadline' nothing happens
17:05 tcohen ok, the 4th then
17:06 cait hm sec
17:34 asma Thanks Hi all. I work in  a library of 20000 books and we have the project to  move to koha in a near future. We want to setup our own web server. What is the minimum  speed of Internet do we need? For the moment, we have 30Mbps in download and 3Mbps in upload. Thanks a lot.
17:36 tcohen asma: it really depends on how much you use it. 3Mbps might me too little, but depends on the real-life load
17:44 asma tcohen: we plan to have a  peak of 300 people connected at the same time. What could be a minimum ?
17:46 tcohen I'm not sure, I assume that 3Mbps are reserved for Koha?

18:03 * liw always finds it fitting that "release manager" is abbreviated "rm" and points out that "find dirname -delete" (GNU find) is faster then "rm -rf dirname" (GNU coreutils), but sometimes suspects he's just weird

23:39 dcook <bf:extent>xv, 170 p. ;</bf:extent>
23:39 dcook Because that makes sense...
23:39 dcook Sure from an AACR2/RDA perspective but... what?
23:40 dcook Let's use a machine readable format but make the data only reliably parseable by humans
23:40 dcook \o/
23:40 rangi yeah, bibframe, its not much better than marcxml
23:41 dcook That's my thought so far :/
23:41 dcook And I'll still never get over how RDA is basically AACR3
23:41 dcook But...RDA! RDA!
23:41 * dcook twitches
23:41 rangi yeah, and how it took so long
23:42 dcook It's a bit mind-boggling
23:42 dcook I'd love to see some examples of library linked data in action though...
23:43 dcook Not really a great example: http://bibframe.org//resources[…]lc-1/exhibit.html
23:43 dcook Since it's just linking to itself
23:43 dcook I mean... cool in that it links to other records but it's still its own site
23:43 dcook Actually, rangi, you might know the answer... how do you decide what to show from the linked records? Is it just up to the application?
23:44 rangi afaik yeah
23:44 dcook Ahh k
23:44 dcook I wonder a bit how it would work...
23:44 dcook For original cataloguing, you'd do up your own records, and maybe link to authority sources
23:44 dcook But what about copy cataloguing?
23:45 rangi no idea, gmcharlt might know
23:45 dcook Hmm, perhaps I should pester him
23:45 dcook My interest in LoD seems to go up and down periodically
23:46 rangi i like the idea of it
23:46 gmcharlt dcook: that is part of the $64K quesiton
23:46 gmcharlt (you get to pick which country supplies the dollars)
23:46 rangi heh
23:47 dcook gmcharlt: Hmm?
23:47 mario joined #koha
23:48 dcook The dollars in terms of hosting the servers which will be bombarded?
23:48 gmcharlt dcook: heh, part of it
23:48 gmcharlt but what I'm driving at is more the questions of what the users want/need
23:48 gmcharlt e.g., LOD in theory means that you can pull in All The Vocabularies!!!
23:48 dcook Mmm, yes, I was wondering about that as well
23:49 gmcharlt but... All The Vocabularies!!! is not necessarily of that much interest to a parent looking to see what book their toddler will chew on next
23:49 dcook So even if you download someone else's record... you might want to completely change the links..
23:49 dcook Or would you create a record and link the main part to the original?
23:50 dcook gmcharlt: True that
23:50 gmcharlt OTOH, a patron who is a movie buff may actually want to figure out what movies the library has that feature (a) Sean Bean (b) not dying
23:50 * dcook doesn't recall chewing on books but his wife assures him that their progeny will do so
23:50 dcook lol
23:50 dcook That would be rather interesting
23:51 ibeardslee gmcharlt: No Results
23:51 gmcharlt one part of the problem is the difficulty of predicted how much induced demand for moar data will crop up
23:51 gmcharlt ibeardslee: actually, there is now a result! :) (The Martian)
23:52 dcook Spoilers :p
23:52 * dcook needs to go see that...
23:52 * dcook wasn't that keen until he saw gmcharlt's recent endoresement
23:53 wizzyrea joined #koha
23:53 dcook gmcharlt: That certainly seems to be an issue, although I think that libraries don't know what to do with the data they have now
23:53 dcook Or rather... they don't know what data users really need/want
23:53 wizzyrea hi
23:53 dcook heya wizzyrea
23:53 wahanui lizardrea
23:53 wizzyrea *snerk*
23:56 gmcharlt dcook: I think it boils down to toss the data at the wall to see what sticks
23:56 gmcharlt *tossing
23:57 * dcook shudders
23:58 dcook It is tough knowing what users want/need of course...
23:58 dcook I had someone recently ask that 505$t not be indexed into Title
23:58 dcook Sure... there might be someone who doesn't want to get hits if the search string is in 505$t
23:58 dcook But other people might want to find a record if it has a title in 505$t
23:59 dcook Of course, that's more of an access/indexing issue... but it still goes to show that different people want different things
23:59 * dcook is having flashbacks to his master's class in taxonomic classification
23:59 dcook That's the other thing... there's so many levels
