01:04 * chris_n         follows SelfishMan's example
01:04 SelfishMan        I'm just going to assume that the PTFS thing is a nightmare
01:50 joetho2           i think it meets most definitions
01:51 joetho2           wierd
01:51 joetho2           a little horrible
01:52 joetho2           recurring
01:52 joetho2           you sound crazy when you try to explain it to someone else
02:28 * larsw           prepares to send a 33 part patch series to koha-patches, hopefully it will go OK

08:26 hdl_laptop        hi
08:26 chris             hiya hdl_laptop, ltns
08:26 chris             hows things going?
08:50 slef              hdl_laptop: can you pull smallbugs from git://git.gitorious.org/koha/mainline.git please?  It contains a backported fix for Bug 2547 which ought to get into 3.0.x.

08:50 slef              morning all
08:55 chris             hi slef
08:58 Ropuch            Hi slef
08:58 chris             slef: can you push 3.0.x to gitorious please
08:58 chris             i just killed it by accident
09:00 slef              chris: will do
09:01 chris             thanks
09:15 slef              chris: I think that's done. Had a little local problem during pull.
09:17 Ropuch            chris: are you still in chrage of pootle?
09:18 Ropuch            I've just registered an account for our trainee, so he can make some suggestion that i can review later
09:19 slef              just read the PTFS buys LibLime news, including the "PTFS pledges to enhance and maintain the www.koha.org site" bit :-(
09:19 Ropuch            But with the new account I'm able to add/delete entries in translations - they don't show as suggestions
09:22 chris             slef: yeah, i think we just continue on with koha-community and let PTFS come to us when they decide to join the community
09:22 chris             Ropuch: whats the username?
09:39 paul_p            hello world
09:39 paul_p            chris about ?
09:40 slef              hi paul_p
09:40 chris             hiya paul_p
09:40 slef              chris was about 0921
09:40 paul_p            I think everybody already knows that PTFS has bought LL (finally !)
09:42 paul_p            the important sentence on the PR is : "PTFS pledges to enhance and maintain the www.koha.org site as the focal point for the world’ s Koha activities– the place to find the latest information on Koha support, documentation, news, and downloads."
09:42 chris             yeah, slef and I commented on that already
09:43 chris             i would be much much much happier if it said
09:43 chris             PTFS pledges to work with the rest of the koha community to .....
09:43 chris             as it stands it reads like 'we plan to be like liblime and do whatever we want'
09:44 chris             what i said earlier was
09:44 chris             22:22 < chris> slef: yeah, i think we just continue on with koha-community and let PTFS come to us when they decide to join  the community
10:07 paul_p            back from phone call...
10:07 chris             :)
10:07 paul_p            my opinion on this is that it would have been more clear if PTFS had written : "PTFS pledges to re-open" instead of "PTFS pledges to enhance and maintain"
10:08 paul_p            but i'm an optimitic man, so, i'll say it will be a good news at the end.
10:08 chris             :)
10:08 slef              hope for the best but prepare for the worst
10:09 slef              do we think the "it's all off" was one side trying to move the price?
10:09 chris             who knows, US business practices make my brain hurt
10:09 paul_p            I had JY on phone 3 weeks ago. He asked me a question that sounded strange, but now is more clear : "what would make the community happy". I answered "just give back koha.org to the community". he added "is that all?" I answered "maybe give back the trademark, but that's a US specific problem we don't have in Europe"
10:10 paul_p            my feeling (totally un-argued) is that PTFS realised they could say "no" to the LL price and just would have to wait a little bit to see LL going back and say "OK, which price do you want to pay"
10:10 paul_p            if I'm right, then, they were right to do that ;-)
10:11 paul_p            + josh had only 2 options : sell at the PTFS price or loose everything
10:11 chris             we'll probably never know
10:11 paul_p            right
10:11 chris             and im not sure it even matters :)
10:12 chris             as i see it, the ball is in ptfs court, we just keep on keeping on, and they do whatever they decide to do
10:12 paul_p            i agree with you.
10:13 paul_p            but i'll send a mail to JY to congratulate him & say i've noticed the "PTFS pledges...", and ask for what it could mean
10:15 chris             cant hurt

10:42 chris_n           g'morning gmcharlt
10:43 * chris_n         goes to scare up breakfast
10:43 gmcharlt          then you cook it? ;)
10:43 gmcharlt          sounds rather labor intensive
10:45 chris             morning usa
10:45 gmcharlt          hi chris
10:45 chris             the cormack family goes to the football http://photos.bigballofwax.co.nz/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=72383
10:46 gmcharlt          hopefully now that Jo is a "mover and shaker", she'll be listened to more regarding Koha community requests ;)
10:46 gmcharlt          atu looks like a little bee
10:47 gmcharlt          oops, sorry, wrong kid
10:47 chris_n           gmcharlt: not too labor intensive... bagals and microwave bacon :)

10:48 chris             kahu loves singing the "wellington is wonderful song" ... it was really loud, you can hear the goals (if you have sound onr your computer, that sound is from the microphone on the pitch)
10:50 chris             "wellington is wonderful, we have the wind, the rain, and the phoenix" :)
10:51 gmcharlt          and sponsorship by Sony, I see :)
10:51 chris             the club is mostly bankrolled by one guy
10:52 gmcharlt          one of the guys in suits in the slideshow?
10:52 chris             yep
10:52 chris             its the only nz team, in the australian league, and the only team that sells out its stadium :)
10:53 braedon|home      well, this year
10:53 braedon|home      previously, not so much
10:54 chris             since its been in wellington it has had consistently bigger crowds than the australian teams
10:54 chris             when it was auckland .. yeah it had about 5 people :)
10:54 braedon|home      haha
10:54 chris             i saw the kings play, they were horrible
11:28 chris             i reckon catalyst could run a smoulder server gmcharlt
11:28 chris             i had one running for stuff
11:28 chris             so i know how to set it up
11:29 chris             and now, bed time
11:36 gmcharlt          chris: cool
11:36 gmcharlt          and good night
12:16 jwagner           Good morning all
12:16 collum            Good morning jwagner
12:17 * jwagner         must not be awake yet. Started to head into the kitchen to get my tea, then realized it was sitting in front of me.
12:18 jwagner           hdl_laptop or paul_p, online?
12:23 owen              Hi everyone
12:24 gmcharlt          hi jwagner
12:24 jwagner           Hi
12:25 gmcharlt          hi schuster
12:27 paul_p            hi jwagner  & everyone
12:28 jwagner           paul_p, question for you.  I'm working through the 3.2 version, and you have a syspref for OpacPrivacy.  I can't find where to apply it, though.  Am I missing something?
12:28 paul_p            jwagner, I don't understand your question
12:29 jwagner           I thought you had a feature for anonymizing patron reading history in this version, and the OpacPrivacy syspref seems to be for that, but I can't see that it does anything.  Is there something else that needs to be set?
12:29 schuster          Hey all - looks like another day of speculation!
12:30 paul_p            maybe the patch hasn't been applied by gmcharlt ?
12:30 paul_p            schuster, right ! maybe we have more interesting things to do (like hacking ;-) )
12:30 jwagner           I'm trying to identify where we have parallel development -- we have a feature for wiping reading history too.
12:30 jwagner           schuster, speculation is our middle name :-)
12:30 gmcharlt          paul_p: opacprivacy is present in the code
12:31 jwagner           Turning the syspref off or on doesn't seem to make a difference, though -- I can still see old checkouts.
12:31 gmcharlt          hmm, bug, then, I suppose
12:32 paul_p            jwagner : the privacy is applied only when you run the anonymizer
12:33 jwagner           A script?
12:33 paul_p            tools/cleanborrowers.pl
12:33 jwagner           OK, I'll check that out. Thanks.
12:35 jwagner           I didn't see a place for the patron to opt in or out, though -- is it all or nothing?  i.e., every patron's history will get wiped?
12:35 paul_p            jwagner, there's a script opac-privacy.pl
12:35 paul_p            where the patron can say 1- never anonymise, 2- follow the library rules 3- immediatly anonymize
12:36 jwagner           But where does the patron say that?  I'm logged into the OPAC and I don't see an option.
12:41 paul_p            jwagner, just sent you the patch I submitted in december
12:42 paul_p            in opac-user.pl (where usermenu.inc is used), there is a new tab "my privacy"
12:43 paul_p            that is displayed if syspref "OPacPrivacy" is ON
12:43 jwagner           Got it.  Is that in head yet? I updated my system yesterday but am not seeing that tab.
12:43 jwagner           The syspref is on.
12:44 paul_p            just look in usermenu.inc, you should see "my privacy"
12:44 paul_p            if it is not, then ping galen and ask him about what may have happend ;-)
12:45 jwagner           pinging gmcharlt :-)  I don't see that code in usermenu.inc.
12:46 * gmcharlt        will check
12:46 gmcharlt          jwagner: would you happen to have a synopsis of the areas of parallel development you've done?
12:46 paul_p            gmcharlt, do you need my december patch ?
12:47 gmcharlt          paul_p: nope, the archive has all
12:48 jwagner           Overall I see about five major areas where we have overlap.  In a couple of cases, I think we can merge ours into yours; we're going to have to look at the others more closely.
12:49 gmcharlt          what are the five areas?
12:49 jwagner           The problem children are going to be batch item edit, batch item delete (both of which I think we can combine ours into BibLibre's), bib merge, reading history, and fast add.
12:49 jwagner           There are a couple of others where our development was almost identical.  These five, though, take different approaches.
12:51 jwagner           bib merge may be the easiest -- we took very different approaches, and both may be able to coexist without conflict.  The question is whether that would be too confusing for users.
12:52 gmcharlt          that one may be resolved by having both in early 3.4 and seeing which one works best before settling on one when 3.4 is released
12:53 paul_p            gmcharlt, we already have our bib merge in 3.2 (I think)
12:53 gmcharlt          right
12:53 gmcharlt          the PTFS version would go into 3.4, and we'd see which one "wins"
12:53 jwagner           paul_p, ours is a different approach (lives under tools) -- there would be no direct code conflict, I think.  Just usability questions.
12:53 gmcharlt          or else just have a system preference to choose one or the other
12:54 gmcharlt          in the long run, though, there would be a code maintenance issue
12:54 paul_p            ( my fault, but we have some other new features on the way, that I should add to the wiki...)
12:54 gmcharlt          paul_p: yep, get on that, please :)
12:54 paul_p            like bulkedit biblio
12:54 jwagner           And to bugzilla?
12:54 paul_p            jwagner, yep, on both
12:54 gmcharlt          yep
12:55 paul_p            did everyone see my announcement about alex_a being the new BibLibre developer ? (started yesterday)
12:55 gmcharlt          hi alex_a
12:55 jwagner           I think all of our current devel list is in bugzilla except for maybe one or two.  I have some new devel that I need to get sorted out & entered.
12:55 jwagner           Welcome alex_a
12:56 alex_a            Hi
12:56 alex_a            hi gmcharlt
12:56 alex_a            thanks jwagner
12:57 owen              Hi alex_a
13:12 CGI445            hello
13:26 jwagner           @quote random
13:26 munin             jwagner: Quote #44: "<thd> People make bugs fairly much in the degree to which they contribute to the code" (added by gmcharlt at 04:07 PM, October 30, 2009)
13:27 schuster          Question for you programmer type and release managers...  I am working on a command line batch load utility which is about done.  We mimicked the staff interface, and in doing so there are "responses/defaults" that can be done during a load.
13:29 schuster          What our programmer did was to direct it to a file so if the table row was referenced as it loaded the file would also load the default.  My question is - where should that "default" file live?  I see the borrower_import_command.pl living in the cronjobs folder so is it ok for this "default" file to live there as well?
13:37 schuster          Jane can't decide who she wants to be today...  watch out that either means lots of productivity or looking for a way to not be productive.
13:37 jwagner           Harrumph.
13:37 schuster          jdavidb - must not be around... ;)
13:38 jwagner           schuster, I'm ALWAYS looking for a way to avoid doing any work :-)  Sometimes that involves more work than doing the original work would have.....
13:38 gmcharlt          schuster: misc/cronjobs is fine for now for that file
13:40 schuster          thanks gmcharlt - he had setup a new directory during testing to house his temporary testing files, but I'm going to have him tweak a couple other things before we submit this.  I need to do a little more testing on 3.2 as it was based on 3.0 code, but I don't think there were any patron load modifications for 3.2.

15:35 miguel-xercode    hello henrry
15:58 schuster          grumbles as can't get the table sorter to work on intranet detail.pl...
15:59 owen              Does your javascript match the table ID? Does the table have a <thead> and  a <tbody> ?
16:01 schuster          Yes on table ID, checking on tbody I know it has a thead.
16:03 brendan           afternoon #koha
16:03 schuster          now does have a tbody - but still no cute little dropdowns arrows for sorting. blah...
16:03 sekjal            afternoon, brendan
16:06 schuster          My biggest concern is where the function is on the detail.tmpl on the intranet there are LOTS of functions there.

18:39 * wizzyrea_laptop wonders what "it" is
18:40 * collum          was sort of filling in the blanks.
18:41 owen              I'm pretty sure it was bacon.
18:41 collum            That was one of my blanks.
18:42 jwagner           I think there are other bacon-related quotes, so that's likely....
18:49 chris             ok bus time
18:49 chris             back in 40 mins or so
19:08 * chris_n         wishes for a huge bacon cheeseburger
19:08 wizzyrea_laptop   me too, actually. Dangit, now I'm hungry
19:10 * jwagner         had a sudden flash to that commercial about the dog demanding BACON!!!
19:11 jwagner           Now I'm hungry too!
19:15 * chris_n         passes around virtual-burgers... which are only slightly worse than soy-burgers
19:15 * jwagner         is suddenly not hungry any more....
19:32 cm                can anyone tell me if the librarian login on 3.2 has been moved to the right side of the screen recently (rather than centered) or is it just something I did?
19:35 owen              cm you must have done something
19:35 cm                i figured!  i feel less crazy now.  thanks, owen.
19:35 jwagner           I've seen that occasionally -- just refresh the page.
19:36 owen              Incomplete stylesheet load maybe?
19:36 cm                hmm, maybe. jwagner:  it's been that way a while now on my test server.
19:50 chris             back
19:51 chris             lol
19:51 chris             ed sharpe, 9 years of moaning
19:52 chris             its gotta be a record
19:52 owen              Nice, hunh?
19:52 chris             yeah he shoulda added, and give me LCCN too!!!
19:53 chris             i could reply and say, the way i remember it, and the list archives confirm you spent years demanding the community to write some code free of charge for you
19:53 richard           :)
19:53 chris             and that is the sum total of your contribution
19:54 chris             but i think ill just vent here instead :)
19:58 CGI436            Hi guys
19:58 chris             hi CGI436
19:58 CGI436            I'm getting a mysql error in my koha-error.log, and I can't check out some items to some people
20:00 chris             whats the error?
20:00 CGI436            [Tue Mar 16 11:43:15 2010] [error] [client 10.161.4.68] [Tue Mar 16 11:43:15 2010] circulation.pl: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'FROM  issuingrules, , referer: <host>/cgi-bin/koha/circ/circulation.pl [Tue Mar 16 11:43:15 2010] [error] [client 10.161.4.68] [Tue Mar 16 11:43:15 2010] circulation.pl:

20:01 chris             http://paste.workbuffer.org/
20:01 chris             is a good way to paste those things
20:01 CGI436            [Tue Mar 16 11:43:15 2010] [error] [client 10.161.4.68] [Tue Mar 16 11:43:15 2010] circulation.pl:                    LEFT JOIN ite' at line 3 at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Circulation.pm line 2079., referer: <host>/cgi-bin/koha/circ/circulation.pl
20:02 chris             sounds like you are missing some issuing rules ... what version of koha? you can find out on the about page
20:03 pastebot          "CGI436" at 192.168.15.101 pasted "mysql error" (4 lines) at http://paste.workbuffer.org/18
20:03 CGI436            3.01.00.124
20:03 chris             ta
20:04 CGI436            I was able to run the mysql query in question against my mysql server via the command line without any problem
20:04 chris             so pretty close to latest master .. (one db update back)
20:05 chris             hmm that error message doesnt have the full query
20:05 CGI436            let me see if I miss pasted
20:08 pastebot          "CGI436" at 192.168.15.101 pasted "mysql error" (3 lines) at http://paste.workbuffer.org/19
20:10 chris_n           CGI436: is that paste correct?
20:10 chris             still only looks like a fraction of the query
20:11 CGI436            That's all that shows up in the logs.
20:11 chris             how did you test it then?
20:11 CGI436            There's only one query in circulation.pl that uses issuingrules
20:11 chris             yes but it contains different variables every time
20:12 CGI436            It binds to a constant
20:12 chris             it depends on the itemtype and the branch and the borrower category
20:13 CGI436            Let me look. It seemed to me it got a table of values
20:14 chris             starts at line 2065 in C4/Circulation.pm
20:15 chris             great big query, with lots of joins
20:15 pastebot          "CGI436" at 192.168.15.101 pasted "issuing rules query" (6 lines) at http://paste.workbuffer.org/20
20:15 chris             yeah thats not the query your error is complaing about
20:15 chris             see /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Circulation.pm line 2079
20:16 sekjal            the CanBookBeRenewed function
20:16 chris             *nod*
20:16 CGI436            Great, I thought I was going crazy.
20:18 CGI436            So does this mean my "issuing rules" table is improperly structured, or improperly populated?
20:20 chris_n           bbl
20:21 chris             im guessing the latter
20:21 chris             but it could be the former too :)
20:21 CGI436            The news keeps getting better.  Am I right in thinking that I should be able to fix this via the web interface?
20:22 chris             could you put a warn
20:22 chris             actually ignore that
20:22 chris             yeah check the circulation rules first
20:22 chris             /cgi-bin/koha/admin/smart-rules.pl
20:23 CGI436            Thanks for your help.  I'll be back if I can't make progress.
20:23 chris             good luck
20:48 * russ            goes to get a coffee before meeting
20:49 CGI436            chris, are you still there?
20:50 chris             yep, 10 minutes until a meeting about kohcon10 though :)
20:50 * richard         follows russ' lead
20:50 CGI436            Thanks for your help.
20:50 CGI436            I wasn't able to find anything in my rules, but I don't really know what I'm looking for
20:50 CGI436            The problem occurs when I try and check out something that doesn't circulate
20:51 CGI436            to a faculty member
20:51 CGI436            but not when I try and check out the same item to myself.
20:51 CGI436            When I check out to myself, I get a litlle "do you want to override" message
20:52 CGI436            I just get a yellow bar without the override option when I check out to the faculty member.
20:52 CGI436            Does that spark anything in your imagination?
20:56 chris             and if you try a different itemtype?
20:57 CGI436            Do you mean try to check out an item of a different type, or change the type associated with this item?
20:58 BobB              Good morning #koha
20:58 Ropuch            Try to check different item first - then you should be able to identify if problem is associated with patron-type or item-type
20:58 Ropuch            Good evening #Koha
20:58 Jo                hi all

21:05 russ              ok so agenda - http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:kohacon2010:volunteers#march_10am_nzst
21:05 russ              so on the first topic
21:05 russ              1. Speakers/call for papers update
21:05 russ              I'll sub for Nicole
21:06 russ              We have had a number of papers lodged (i guess is the best way to say it)
21:06 russ              but still looking for more.
21:06 Brooke            awesome
21:06 chris             yep, we have about 1 days worth, need a couple more
21:07 DebJo             any obvious gaps? (I'd like to something buty havn't decided what yet :)
21:07 richard           is there a list of what has been put forward so far?
21:07 BobB              I thought I could do a paper on project governance - try to flesh out what it might mean and some options
21:07 Brooke            brave man, you
21:08 russ              BobB that would be cool
21:08 BobB              Has anyone else offered to do that?
21:08 russ              not as yet
21:08 Brooke            ta da
21:08 russ              nicole is the best one to talk about the papers
21:08 Brooke            sold to the man in the second row
21:08 BobB              The hardest part is 'what it is not'
21:08 chris             koha in schools, koha + kete, faceted searching, open library and koha, setting up koha in a uni in india, one about GPL/sharing etc, and one from lee
21:08 russ              and as she is not here
21:08 DebJo             has walter put his hand up to do one on kete-koha
21:08 chris             about their experisnce
21:08 chris             yep DebJo
21:09 chris             thats a brief summary
21:09 chris             up there ^
21:09 russ              thanks chris
21:09 DebJo             cheers
21:09 liw               I assume there is still ample time to propose talks?
21:09 chris             tons of time
21:09 russ              yep august
21:09 russ              so i think we are doing pretty well for the moment :-)
21:10 russ              so in summary, we have some talks, we want more, don't be afraid to put a submission in
21:10 Brooke            grand
21:10 russ              and more talks from librarians would be awesome
21:10 DebJo             i'm thinking something about librarians working 'different;y' when they get involved with koha ie open source community rather than with vendors
21:10 chris             that would be choice jo
21:10 DebJo             that old 'learned helplessnes' chestnut
21:11 chris             battered library syndrome
21:11 russ              i'll sign you up now :-)
21:11 DebJo             lol
21:11 Brooke            yes indeed
21:11 chris             i heard it described as today
21:11 DebJo             maybe Brooke or Nicole and I could do it together :)
21:11 DebJo             panel discussion format
21:11 Brooke            I will do whatever you or Chris tell me to, hence dogsbody
21:12 chris             DebJo: i think its best coming from a librarian, so you and brooke maybe
21:12 DebJo             cool
21:12 chris             you dont want vendors telling you how to behave with vendors :-)
21:13 Brooke            psha
21:13 chris             oh i know the title of your talk
21:13 Brooke            next thing you say will be "You know, you should do open source stuff" ;)
21:13 chris             "Dude, its my library,"
21:13 DebJo             I'm not hip enough :)
21:13 chris             heh
21:14 Ropuch            ;>
21:14 russ              righto moving on
21:14 russ              Item 2 Website
21:15 * Brooke          takes cover
21:15 russ              ok so we have registered a domain name
21:15 chris             http://www.kohacon10.org.nz/
21:15 chris             *shazam*
21:15 russ              so please update your links
21:15 russ              and we have a logo
21:16 Brooke            loves it
21:16 russ              our designer tells us it is a play on rebirth and building upon each others work with the egg
21:16 DebJo             I do too
21:16 russ              anyways
21:16 russ              there is a bunch more content up there now
21:16 russ              thanks to reed for the content on how to get to little old NZ from the US
21:17 reed              np
21:17 Brooke            dunno about this week
21:17 Brooke            but last week airfares dipped substantially
21:17 Brooke            from about 1500 to about 1000 lowest
21:17 chris             lee has booked her tickets already
21:17 chris             hopefully last week
21:18 DebJo             I've booked my apartment already
21:18 russ              :-)
21:18 russ              rachel is going to be working on a partners programme/ideas for parteners and kids when she gets back from her trip
21:18 DebJo             yay Rach
21:18 Brooke            unfortunately, there is no way a charter jet is viable unless we rob a bank or steal a corporate one
21:19 Brooke            but I did check into it
21:19 chris             :)
21:19 gmcharlt          the chartering or the stealing^Wborrowing?
21:19 Brooke            >.>
21:19 Brooke            <.<
21:19 Brooke            all of the above
21:19 gmcharlt          :)
21:20 russ              i think the site all hangs together now and there are no dead links, but if anyone spots anything, please let either chris or myself know
21:20 Brooke            will do
21:20 richard           sure
21:20 russ              i am still looking for ideas around t-shirt printing
21:21 russ              i was thinking cafepress, but there was some talk of that being a bit pricey
21:21 gmcharlt          would a redirect from kohacon10.koha-community.org to http://www.kohacon10.org.nz/ be out of order?
21:21 Brooke            http://www.souders1918.com/
21:21 Brooke            they'll print anything on anything else
21:21 chris             nope, seems fine to me gmcharlt
21:21 liw               russ, would it be helpful to run a link checker against the site?
21:21 Brooke            might not be the cheapest, but they usually don't screw up, and if they do they fixerate it
21:21 DebJo             cafepress do good quality sweatshirts and heavy tees though
21:22 russ              Brooke: thanks i'll have a look
21:22 russ              liw: you offering? :-)
21:22 liw               russ, sure
21:22 russ              liw: great thanks
21:22 DebJo             mayoral reception in Levin
21:23 russ              one of our designers here at catalyst is working on a t-shirt design
21:23 Brooke            hi Irma
21:23 IrmaCalyx         G'day all
21:23 russ              so once that is sorted, unless we find a better alternative we will set up cafepress shop for those who are interested

21:25 Brooke            well the Aussies can just swim.
21:25 russ              Aussies are very good at swimming
21:25 chris             its cos all the animals try to kill them
21:25 russ              but if anyone has anything to add there, just send it through to me
21:25 BobB              Ha!  The ditch is one of the roughest oceans!!:)
21:25 chris             you have to be fast to survive in aus
21:26 russ              but please encourage people to look at the site
21:26 russ              chris: we might need to take the video of the kingswood racing off the template :-)
21:26 chris             :)
21:26 chris             thats on their cos that video was made by librarians :)
21:27 russ              heh
21:27 DebJo             hey should we be putting logos up of the other businesses which have sponsored conference
21:27 BobB              DebJo: Mayoral reception?  Was that a serious suggestion?
21:27 russ              DebJo getting there
21:27 russ              and BoB can we handle that last please
21:27 DebJo             cool.
21:27 BobB              OK
21:28 DebJo             yes - serious offer ogf a mayoral recption.
21:28 russ              ok item3 Sponsorship
21:28 DebJo             councillors are keen, asked me to ask Mayor.
21:28 russ              DebJo can we cover that after sponsorship please
21:28 chris             psst agenda DebJo :)
21:28 DebJo             Thursday 28th Oct is suggested at 5ish
21:28 russ              ok a big thanks to Irma and Bob for their donations
21:28 DebJo             oops
21:29 chris             calyx++
21:29 russ              we will be adding the Caylx logo to the site as soon as we get one through
21:29 DebJo             go Calyx ++
21:29 DebJo             and libriotech too I guess
21:29 chris             libriotech dont currently have a logo, which is why they are just listed
21:29 chris             they would be the first logo otherwise as they donated first
21:29 russ              Chris and I are working with another sponsor that means we will be able to meet our minimum target for the venue
21:30 DebJo             fantastic
21:30 richard           cool
21:30 DebJo             just looking, the second depoist is not due until 25th July $1046.25
21:31 russ              once i have sorted that out and finalised it, then i will go out to approach the other sponsors
21:31 russ              DebJo: ah cool, good to know that
21:31 IrmaCalyx         it would be nice to have some libraries as sponsors not just service providers...
21:31 DebJo             HLT will kick in $500
21:31 russ              i think that should be no problem
21:31 * Brooke          cheers
21:31 russ              thanks HLT :-)
21:31 DebJo             (i'm thinking donation in lieu of registrtaion fee)
21:32 miguel-xercode    I would like to know which are the economic conditions to become a sponsor
21:32 Brooke            modest and scaling :)
21:32 russ              miguel-xercode: not sure i understand
21:32 DebJo             give enough that it feels good
21:32 IrmaCalyx         DebJo ...I like that !
21:33 BobB              russ: Is it true that donations so far are in the range of $250 to $1,000 NZ - is that good guidance for others?
21:33 russ              miguel-xercode: if you are interested in sponsoring, then perhaps we can talk off list
21:33 russ              BobB: yep good point
21:33 miguel-xercode    yes
21:34 DebJo             dons to date: $250, $750, $1000
21:34 IrmaCalyx         NZ $
21:34 DebJo             yep
21:34 miguel-xercode    I want to talk tomorrow if possible
21:34 Brooke            Chris makes the top donor Mickey Mouse flapjacks, ya?
21:35 russ              miguel-xercode: great - i will msg you my contact details
21:35 DebJo             yay miguel-xercode :)
21:35 miguel-xercode    because Spain is a little late, and have a family to go to bed
21:35 Brooke            thank you miguel
21:36 russ              miguel-xercode: no problem, thank you for showing up today
21:37 chris             sorry phone :(
21:37 russ              ok so in summary, we have enough money to secure the venue, we will still be seeking more sponsorship so that we can provide more for attendees
21:37 russ              but it is all going well at the moment, and will ramp up in April
21:37 Brooke            wunderbar
21:37 * nengard         Nicole Engard, ByWater Solutions  (sorry I'm late)
21:37 russ              gmcharlt: can you please send me the email addy of someone I can talk to at Equinox
21:37 Brooke            Nicole!
21:37 nengard           I'm sorry
21:37 gmcharlt          russ: that would be me - gmc@esilibrary.com
21:38 nengard           got hit with a round of vey sick feeling
21:38 DebJo             hola!
21:38 gmcharlt          hi nengard
21:38 russ              gmcharlt: easy :-)
21:38 nengard           did someone do my update for me?
21:38 Ropuch            nengard: shouldn't you be just lying in bed and getting better? ;>
21:38 russ              nengard: chris did a good summary for you
21:38 nengard           thanks chris!
21:38 DebJo             now git thee back to bed woman
21:38 nengard           and Ropuch, yes, but I wanted to make to be here if I was needed
21:38 russ              ok so that is the agenda sorted
21:38 russ              just a note, i havent heard from Mark at ASHS
21:39 russ              so no more detail on the road trip just yet
21:39 DebJo             re road trip?
21:39 DebJo             shall i email him since i first raised the issue
21:39 russ              sure
21:39 DebJo             and happy to back him up if he can't do that job
21:39 russ              i think chris and i would like the road trip to be SEP :-)
21:40 liw               what is this road trip?
21:40 DebJo             as in seperate or September
21:40 russ              someone else's problem :-)
21:40 richard           someone else's problem
21:40 DebJo             sweet as
21:40 russ              once you have it sorted, just let us know the details and we can post it to the site
21:40 DebJo             sure
21:41 Brooke            dorky Librarian question
21:41 Brooke            do we have a bibliography yet?
21:41 BobB              Cos' folks will have to know - to book flight to Auckland, not Wellington
21:41 russ              Brooke: no, you offering ?
21:42 nengard           bibliography of what?
21:42 Brooke            not that I think y'all would do so
21:42 Brooke            reads to get you in the mood for conference
21:42 Brooke            and help with travel and such
21:42 DebJo             penguin history of NZ
21:42 russ              right we have some travel related links on the site
21:43 BobB              NZ History of Penguins:)
21:43 russ              but if you want to write one up, then we can publish it sure
21:43 Brooke            *nod*
21:43 DebJo             (skip the 50s and 60s bit - was boring)
21:43 russ              DebJo: so civic reception
21:44 DebJo             k
21:44 russ              what were your thoughts there? are the council going to pay for a bus or two?
21:44 chris             liw: there is an idea for ppl flying into auckland to take a roadtrip down to wellington, with some of the koha librarians from auckland
21:44 DebJo             at the trust meeting sthe councillors with library responsibilities asked me to write to the mayor and ask him to host a small civic reception in Levin for 100 - 150 people :)
21:45 DebJo             curent mayor said yes - happy to.
21:45 DebJo             but one proviso is we have an electin betweennow and then and if current mayor gets dumped new mayor may not want to...
21:45 russ              ok sounds cool - so does that mean a logistics effort to get people from Wellington to Levin?
21:45 russ              or is the council going to provide for that?
21:45 DebJo             but my money says existing mayor is sitting pretty
21:46 DebJo             so council would pay for the reception ie food and drinks
21:46 DebJo             getting people wgtn to lvn and back again is not included.
21:46 russ              right
21:46 DebJo             but i would like to look at funding for a bus or 2
21:46 chris             would need 2 or 34
21:46 chris             heh
21:46 chris             2 or 3
21:46 russ              right - i have a good contact at a bus company
21:46 DebJo             and we could look at combining it with a dinner somewhere
21:47 BobB              OK, so idea would be hire a bus, get to Levin, tour HLT, civic reception, return to Wellington - delegates pay bus fare?
21:47 DebJo             so leave wgtn 4pm,
21:47 chris             if the train wasnt so annoying could train to paraparaumu and bus from there
21:47 russ              DebJo i suggest earlier than that
21:47 chris             s/annoying/broken/
21:47 russ              4pm is going to be hell to get through Kapiti
21:47 DebJo             can I get some pricing together before thenext meeting?
21:47 russ              that sounds fine
21:47 russ              if you can come up with a proposal that would be great
21:48 russ              and then we can discuss it
21:48 DebJo             ok: we'll come back with a proposal incl pricing, timing etc.
21:48 russ              if you like I can talk to my contact and get you some bus pricing as well
21:48 DebJo             that would be brilliant Russ
21:48 russ              ok so i think that is a good point to close
21:48 russ              BobB and Irma I would like to catch up with you some time
21:49 russ              to talk about some ideas
21:49 russ              but at the rate it is going, it will be early next week before i have some clear time
21:49 russ              i will ping you then
21:49 BobB              russ: any time; today is OK
21:50 russ              Any one got any last questions? or can I wrap this up?
21:50 BobB              russ: next week is ok too
21:50 BobB              Next meeting?
21:51 russ              Monday 19th April 22:00 UTC
21:51 DebJo             Thanks Russ - excellent job herding cats
21:51 russ              that is Tuesday 20th, 10am NZ time
21:52 russ              I will do the minutes sometime later today
21:52 DebJo             thanks everyone
21:52 BobB              Thanks Russ; thanks all
21:52 russ              thanks all
21:52 Brooke            see you in a monthish
21:52 richard           thanks russ
21:53 * russ            wanders off
21:53 IrmaCalyx         Cheers all!
23:00 bankhead          can't get Authen::CAS::Client to install -- any advice?
23:04 chris             whats the error its giving you?
23:05 bankhead          make test had returned bad status, won't install without force
23:06 bankhead          when I did cpan Authen::CAS::Client
23:06 chris             have you ever installed a module from the tarball, (not using cpan)
23:06 bankhead          not yet
23:07 chris             if so, i would suggest doing that, and seeing what test actually failed, and if its harmless do make install anyway
23:07 chris             (it might be trying to connect to a cas server, which will fail as you dont have one)
23:07 bankhead          ok
23:10 bankhead          Authen-CAS-Client-0.05.tar.gz ?
23:10 chris             yep
23:11 bankhead          thx
23:34 bankhead          make test said all good
23:36 chris             cool, sudo make install
23:36 chris             and you should be done
23:36 bankhead          yeah I did sudo make install
23:36 chris             cool
23:37 bankhead          I think it is good
23:37 chris             yep, should be fine
23:37 bankhead          then can I go back and do my koha Makefile.pl again?
23:37 chris             was that the only missing module?
23:38 bankhead          that was on e of about 8-9 and I did all og them
23:38 chris             if so, you dont need to run perl Makefile.PL again
23:38 bankhead          does it mess it up to do over?
23:38 chris             (unless you want to change how you answered your questions)
23:38 Jo                Chris: i have to go to council meeting, but promise will check tocjkets after that
23:38 chris             nope its no harm
23:38 bankhead          ok
23:38 Jo                tickets (even :)
23:38 bankhead          thx
23:38 chris             Jo: cool
