Without it no library will ever consider using koha 17:47 pianohackr|work Yup, will help 19:08 chris morning all 19:08 pianohackr|work Good morning, chris 19:08 * chris is getting ready to go to sofware freedom day 19:09 chris http://softwarefreedomday.org.nz/Schedule 19:11 * chris_n^2 returns with an half wagon load of sweet potatoes 19:11 chris_n^2 hi chris 19:11 chris_n^2 software freedom++ 19:23 cait_laptop good morning 19:47 hdl_laptop chris : any new patches on 3.0.x ? 19:47 pianohackr|work Good morning, cait 19:52 chris_n^2 hello hdl, cait 20:09 chris_n^2 hrmm... it appears that current code generates mod43 checksums for mod10 code39 barcode 20:09 hdl_laptop chris around ? 20:10 * chris_n^2 wonders if anyone is even using code39 w/checksums 20:17 chris_n^2 actually current code generates code39 w/ mod9 20:17 chris_n^2 :-P 20:27 thd chris_n^2: would you use code39 symbology without checksums? 20:28 chris_n^2 thd: current code allows three methods: code39 w/no checksum, code39mod10, code39mod43 (which is standard for code39) 20:29 chris_n^2 in reality both selections which include checksums currently produce code39mod9 20:29 thd chris_n^2: Now I am doubting. I wrote an application to use it a few years ago 20:29 * thd checking 20:29 chris_n^2 the 'visa' method produces modulo 9 20:31 thd Now I remember 20:31 thd Checksums are optional for code39 and I had not used them 20:32 thd You do need the start and stop charcters 20:32 chris_n^2 it appears that anyone thinking they were getting code39 mod10 or 43 were really getting mod9 20:32 thd :) 20:33 chris_n^2 it probably only matters if you try scanning them with applications expecting mod10 or 43 :-S 20:33 thd The start and stop characters are asterisks which makes it very simple to implement 20:33 thd Definitely you need what the application expects. 20:34 chris_n^2 the library here uses code39 w/no checksums 20:34 thd chris_n^2: Had you expressed interest in the SFLC? 20:34 chris_n^2 yes 20:35 chris_n^2 it is second to HLT on my own list 20:35 thd chris_n^2: I think that they could and should serve as legal council for any choice. 20:36 chris_n^2 thd: they are wholly dedicated to FOSS from the legal/business standpoint which is very impressive 20:37 chris_n^2 thd: I agree on that point 20:37 thd chris_n^2: I am less confident about the conservancy but I know the people involved somewhat. Others do not know them and they may have less confidence. 20:38 thd chris_n^2: SFLC invented Software Freedom Day 20:38 thd ... at least that is my understanding. 20:38 thd They are the cosponsors where I am in New York City. 20:39 thd I am going to obtain more information about the conservancy etc. this evening. 20:39 chris_n^2 thd: I was impressed with the info on their website 20:39 chris_n^2 Samba is under them 20:40 chris_n^2 and wine 20:40 thd They are council for FSF and founded by FSF legal council. 20:40 chris_n^2 They are very clear on minimal interference in the projects under them 20:41 chris_n^2 and the cost of membership can't be beat 20:41 thd Did you see what I wrote about them on the wiki? 20:41 chris_n^2 I missed that 20:42 thd Do you know what the page is? 20:42 * thd checks 20:42 chris_n^2 I added them to the chart here: http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=kohaheldbyfoundation 20:46 thd Do you know where the text page with similar content is? 20:47 pianohackr|work thd: did you add this? http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=kohafoundation#software_freedom_conservancy 20:48 thd yes pianohackr|work found it. 20:50 thd chris_n^2: The drawback that the conservancy has of controlling member assets is the same as I suspect it would be for HLT 20:50 thd s/conservancy/Conservancy/ 20:51 chris_n^2 *nod* 20:52 thd chris_n^2: Some of the text content from the page which pianohackr|work found should be incorporated into the chart and the other way around. 20:52 thd We need a wiki page which links to whatever there is about the issue, the wiki is a mess for finding things. 20:53 * chris_n^2 agrees with that 20:54 thd The page to which I added what I wrote about the Conservancy and indirectly SFLC was the one linked from the meeting agenda. 20:54 thd I did try to raise SFLC in the meeting as a discussion topic but I was not forceful about it. 20:55 thd I had missed the beginning of the meeting when I could not access an X-windows session. 20:55 chris_n^2 I really wish SFLC had made it onto the first poll nengard created as it seems much more relevant than IFLA 20:56 chris_n^2 thd: I missed that totally in the meeting, sorry 20:56 chris_n^2 IFLA does not have any mechanism in place to provide anything relevant to koha's needs afaict 20:57 thd All the organisations have merits for status as an additional affiliation. 20:57 thd chris_n^2: I do not think that it matters much about the interim choice. 20:58 thd NZ is safest for issues involving Koha trademark use. 20:58 chris_n^2 thd: it would not be hard, I suspect, to gain control of the Koha tm in the US in any case if that is what the community desired 21:00 thd As long as you are nice to the Mauri then you cannot have problems about using words which are part of an official language. 21:00 chris_n^2 hdl_laptop about? 21:00 hdl_laptop yes 21:01 chris_n^2 hdl_laptop: that patch I submitted for bug 3649 should be ported to 3.0.x as soon as possible as it is a rather serious bug for anyone using code39 mod10 or mod43 barcodes 21:01 munin` 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3649 blocker, P5, ---, cnighswonger@foundations.edu, ASSIGNED, Code39 Mod10 and Mod43 barcodes are produced with Mod9 checksums 21:02 * chris_n^2 does not know if many are using those formats 21:02 hdl_laptop Do you have commit id ? 21:02 chris_n^2 cf523d10949c4d354cd06f88437316f530ac87f6 21:02 thd chris_n^2: I think we should be coaxing LibLime as I am trying to do quietly rather than pushing them further away over trademarks and such. 21:03 chris_n^2 thd: I agree that it would be best for everyone if LL were to voluntarily fulfill their own promises to the community 21:04 chris_n^2 I suspect the matter will finally be one for whatever organization emerges to address 21:05 chris_n^2 thd: I enjoyed the discussion... it gives me more food for thought 21:05 chris_n^2 gotta run, bbl 21:05 thd chris_n^2: However unlikely it may be given the current state, I am hoping that kados finds something to use in a proposal which I have put to him. 21:05 chris_n^2 thd: I truly hope you are successful in that regard 21:06 chris_n^2 I really wish Josh would just straighten up, apologize, and get back to work inside the community 21:07 * chris_n^2 heads out 21:23 * chris clocks in from SFD 21:23 pianohackr|work How was it? 21:24 chris just about to start :) 21:24 chris we are just about to do the barcamp planning 21:25 pianohackr|work Ah. 21:25 pianohackr|work That's what you meant by clocked in :) 21:26 chris yep 21:28 chris hdl_laptop: i have been pushing language changes up into 3.0.x 21:28 chris (i can with gitosis) 21:29 * chris puts the laptop away for a bit 21:54 chris_n2-away hdl_laptop: on second look, it appears that only Code39 Mod10 is incorrect in the 3.0.x branch so only that part of the commit mentioned needs to be applied
