00:29 mason        aaah, heres the fix for me...
00:29 mason        ./rebuild_zebra.pl -a -b -r -x
00:30 mason        using the '-x' arg, handles the bad record better, and skips/succeeds - rather than barfing
01:18 chris        handy
02:37 * chris_n    adds color-coding to about->Perl Modules to indicate when modules need updating relative to Koha's requirements
02:37 SelfishMan   pretty
02:40 chris        nice
02:41 * chris_n    notices that git rebase -i has new options
02:41 chris_n      #  p, pick = use commit
02:41 chris_n      #  r, reword = use commit, but edit the commit message
02:41 chris_n      #  e, edit = use commit, but stop for amending
02:41 chris_n      #  s, squash = use commit, but meld into previous commit
02:41 chris_n      #  f, fixup = like "squash", but discard this commit's log message
02:41 chris        oh cool
03:17 chris_n      g'night

05:00 chris        ben is back
05:00 chris        and quoting jo out of context, ie merging 2 separate comments
05:00 * brendan    goes to look
05:01 brendan      ben always seem to take anything out of context...
05:01 larsw        not just merging, but also picking words to make it look like she said something she didn't
05:02 chris        yep
05:02 larsw        which is a vile form of lying
05:02 chris        yes, yes it is
05:05 chris        not sure what to do about it
05:05 chris        i think ill sleep on it
05:05 chris        hopefully someone else will do something and i will no longer feel the need to :)
05:20 kmkale       humph no local trains running in Mumbai today. Everything almost at a standstill
05:20 kmkale       good morning all
05:46 Amit_G       heya kmkale
05:46 Amit_G       kmkale: have u solve your problem
05:46 Amit_G       ?
06:35 kmkale       hey amit lost connection for a while
06:35 kmkale       yes i solved it
06:46 Amit_G       good
06:47 robin        chris: don't suppose you're about?
06:57 hdl_laptop   hi
06:57 hdl_laptop   chris around ?
06:57 Ropuch^_     Morning #koha
07:02 magnus       g'day #koha
07:23 kf           good morning #koha
07:32 chris        am now
07:33 robin        chris: hey. koha fields are like 'biblio.title', but I'd like to have people just say 'title'. At the moment I'm iterating through the three prefixes checking for the right one. Is that sufficient?
07:33 robin        Importantly, will they ever duplicate?
07:34 robin        so 'biblioitems.title' and 'biblio.title'?
07:34 chris        some things duplicate, title isnt one of them,
07:35 chris        not between items, biblio and biblioitems anyway
07:35 robin        But others can duplicate between them? (title was just an example)
07:35 chris        im trying to think if any do
07:36 chris        maybe just do a describe on each of those tables and eyeball them
07:36 robin        yeah OK
07:36 robin        tomorrow though :)
07:36 chris        :)
07:36 chris        off the top of my head, its just the biblionumber
07:36 chris        which we wont be importing, but creating instead
07:37 robin        now my script can take a CSV, load it, build an array of MARC records from that, and all without errors :)
07:37 robin        However, there is currently no validation and no output.
07:37 chris        its a darn good start :)
07:38 robin        e.g. ./csvtomarc.pl -m title=title -m author=author -i EROlibrary.csv -o test.xml --kohaconf /home/robin/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml
07:38 chris        sweet
07:38 robin        will extract author and title and apply them to the MARC records that match those koha field names.
07:39 chris        awesome, doing it that way, means that it will work for MARC21 and UNIMARC too
07:39 robin        yeah, that's what I figured. Putting an 'output' switch on it won't be hard.
07:39 robin        but now, there's a SOBA get-together at Bodega, so I'm going to the pub :)
07:39 chris        sounds good
07:40 robin        catch you tomorrow
07:40 chris        yep, have fun :)
07:51 chris        hdl_laptop: you wanted me?
08:32 hdl_laptop   chris : I just wanted to say thanks for your hints on fcgi
08:32 hdl_laptop   ?
08:32 hdl_laptop   .
08:35 chris        no problem
08:35 chris        you see the FCGI::Async script?
08:36 chris        ill commit my ngnix conf too
08:38 chris        http://git.workbuffer.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=koha.git;a=commit;h=a025dab4c1868c66f01f1cee935219e5951c0671
08:38 chris        im playing with psgi now to see how that performs
08:38 hdl_laptop   good. let me know
08:38 hdl_laptop   I saw that patch
08:39 chris        i just committed it now :)
08:39 chris        it has the nginx config too
08:40 hdl_laptop   psgi require some heavy work on scripts
08:41 chris        nope
08:42 hdl_laptop   not at first.
08:42 hdl_laptop   But will still.
08:42 chris        not if you use CGI::Compile and CGI::Emulate
08:42 hdl_laptop   sure, but then you donot really use psgi
08:43 hdl_laptop   at its full but kind of emulation of CGI
08:43 chris        it compiles them into psgi, and runs them persistently
08:43 chris        and persistent is the main thing that psgi gives you
08:45 chris        its worth benchmarking anyway, to see if its any faster than FCGI::Async
08:59 chris        Test total duration was 24 seconds and CAPS average 16:
08:59 chris        H/F   Req:310,1xx:0,2xx:310,3xx:0,4xx:0,5xx:0,Err:0,T-Err:0,D:5406ms,D-2xx:5406ms,Ti:87962B/s,To:2289B/s
08:59 chris        H/F/S Req:0,1xx:0,2xx:0,3xx:0,4xx:0,5xx:0,Err:0,T-Err:0,D:0ms,D-2xx:0ms,Ti:0B/s,To:0B/s
09:00 chris        hdl_laptop: does http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/opac-main.pl
09:00 chris        work for you?
09:00 chris        thats what i just benchmarked
09:00 chris        im running it like this
09:01 hdl_laptop   http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?idx=&q=John
09:01 chris        yeah that wont work
09:01 hdl_laptop   http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl
09:01 chris        neither will that
09:01 chris        only the url i pasted
09:01 chris        ive only set it up for that url just for testing
09:01 hdl_laptop   it works
09:01 chris        cool
09:02 chris        so opac-main.pl served 310 requests in 24 seconds
09:02 chris        under this
09:02 chris        plackup -MPlack::App::CGIBin -e 'Plack::App::CGIBin->new(root => "/home/chris/git/koha.git/opac")->to_app'
09:02 chris        with ngnix in front
09:03 hdl_laptop   I tried this but css and js was not loaded.
09:04 chris        yep, nginx is doing the css and js
09:04 chris        that might have been the missing piece
09:04 chris        i just ramped it up
09:05 Amit_G       hdl_laptop around
09:05 Amit_G       i m just reading your comment on http://lists.koha.org/pipermail/koha-patches/2010-January/005276.html
09:06 hdl_laptop   Amit_G: ?
09:07 Amit_G       st-numeric  is not correct for lexile searching
09:11 chris        Test total duration was 182 seconds and CAPS average 13:
09:11 chris        H/F   Req:1502,1xx:0,2xx:1502,3xx:0,4xx:0,5xx:0,Err:0,T-Err:0,D:5992ms,D-2xx:5992ms,Ti:56201B/s,To:1315B/s
09:11 chris        H/F/S Req:0,1xx:0,2xx:0,3xx:0,4xx:0,5xx:0,Err:0,T-Err:0,D:0ms,D-2xx:0ms,Ti:0B/s,To:0B/s
09:13 hdl_laptop   Amit_G: I am not using MARC21 neither lexile.
09:13 Amit_G       ok
09:14 hdl_laptop   I was just suggesting another way ro do things.
09:15 Amit_G       but pubdate also using the same st-numeric
09:21 chris        hdl_laptop: http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?idx=&q=fish
09:21 chris        all urls should work now
09:21 hdl_laptop   http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=155
09:22 chris        yeah thats not psgi tho
09:22 chris        thats me breaking opac-detail.pl
09:23 hdl_laptop   http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-topissues.pl
09:23 hdl_laptop   Same thing.
09:26 chris        yep Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at /home/chris/git/koha.git/opac/opac-topissues.pl line 101.
09:26 chris        valid perl errors
09:29 chris        login works tho
09:30 chris        so far, it seems just those 2
09:30 chris        interesting opac-topissues.pl works fine if you are logged
09:30 chris        in
09:31 chris        ah yep i see why
09:31 chris        $template->param( branchloop => GetBranchesLoop(C4::Context->userenv->{'branch'}));
09:31 chris        http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-topissues.pl
09:32 chris        its broken in apache2 as well
09:32 * chris      fixes
09:32 chris        fixed that one
09:32 chris        http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-topissues.pl  work for you now?
09:34 hdl_laptop   yes
09:34 chris        what i did was this
09:35 chris        if (C4::Context->userenv){                                                                                                    $template->param( branchloop => GetBranchesLoop(C4::Context->userenv->{'branch'}));
09:35 chris        }
09:35 chris        else {                                                                                                                        $template->param( branchloop => GetBranchesLoop());
09:35 chris        }
09:35 chris        should have been done anyway so thats fine, ill look at opac-detail now

10:24 kmkale       Hey anybody upgraded to Lucid yet? I did and am now stuck with "error: unexpectedly disconnected from boot status daemon" system wont boot beyond this point.
10:39 kf           dan_paris: its in the xml config file of koha
10:56 greenmang0   @wunder mumbai
10:56 munin        greenmang0: The current temperature in Mumbai, India is 33.0�C (3:40 PM IST on May 04, 2010). Conditions: Smoke. Humidity: 59%. Dew Point: 24.0�C. Pressure: 29.65 in 1004 hPa (Steady).
10:56 greenmang0   thanks munin
10:57 chris_n      kmkale: I did last week and all is well
10:57 chris_n      and good morning #koha
10:58 chris_n      kmkale: that sounds like a nasty error though :-P
10:58 chris        hi chris_n
10:58 chris_n      heya chris
11:07 chris_n      @later tell kmkale: I succesfully upgraded to lucid last week
11:07 munin        chris_n: The operation succeeded.
11:09 kmkale       chris_n: did you do a upgrade via upgrade manager or from a cd / dvd?
11:11 chris_n      upgrade manager (using -d)
11:12 * chris_n    is not fully awake yet
11:18 kmkale       i wonder how you guyz wonder aloud like that :(
11:20 kmkale       i did too but now am locked out of ubuntu trying to boot into fedora partition and repair ubuntu boot and cursing myself as all the work is stuck
11:21 dan_paris    chris: thank KF!
11:22 kf           huh?
11:24 chris        huh?
11:25 nengard      first thing I see after logging in - 'huh?' -- that's not a nice greeting chris :) hehe
11:25 nengard      good morning all!!
11:26 Colin        g'day #koha (huh?)
11:27 chris        Colin: thanks for the plack hint
11:27 chris        http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl
11:28 Colin        It looks nice... has defiite potential
11:28 chris        running with nginx in front, plack behind
11:28 chris        everying but opac-detail.pl works
11:28 chris        contrast with
11:28 chris        http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl
11:28 chris        exact same code
11:28 chris        but with apache2
11:28 chris        and cig
11:28 chris        cgi too
11:30 Colin        There's a definite difference
11:30 chris        yep, tis faster but the main win is throughput
11:31 chris        if i hit that url with 100 concurrent connection on apache2
11:31 chris        the machine bursts into flames
11:31 chris        (or at least load gets to 120+ and it starts swapping like mad)
11:32 chris        with nginx and plack it barely notices
11:34 Colin        Nice thing is that it dosen't require too much rethinking of existing code to take advantage of that
11:34 chris        yeah, pretty much none at all
11:35 chris        (thats why i was testing FCGI::Async) because it didnt need much either
11:37 jdavidb      hello, #koha! :)
11:38 Colin        welcome jdavidb
11:38 chris        hiya jdavidb
11:40 chris        ok, time for sleep
11:44 gmcharlt     good morning
11:45 jwagner      Morning....
11:46 kf           good morning jdavidb, Colin, jwagner and gmcharlt :)
11:47 Colin        morning or afternoon as it is here
11:49 jwagner      Good [time of day of choice] :-)
11:49 jwagner      Any French speakers online?  I need a syspref translation.
11:51 * magnus     thinks the biblibre gang is in a meeting
11:54 jwagner      Oh well.....
11:55 jdavidb      If I was feeling mean-spirited, jwagner, I'd suggest that you use Google Translate, so they'd point and laugh when they read what you use from it....
11:57 * jwagner    looks over the tops of her glasses at jdavidb
11:58 jwagner      AHA!  A French speaker!
11:58 * jdavidb    cowers in fear
11:58 chris_n      lol jdavidb
11:58 jwagner      Was just asking for one, for a translation :-)
11:59 hdl_laptop   jwagner: sure
12:00 jwagner      I'm changing the description of opaccolorstylesheet, and I'll have a couple of new ones later.  Here's the 1st one:
12:00 jwagner      Define an auxiliary stylesheet for OPAC use, to override specified settings from the primary opac.css stylesheet. Enter the filename (if the file is in the server's css directory) or a complete URL beginning with http (if the file lives on a remote server).
12:00 kf           jdavidb: more chocolate?
12:00 hdl_laptop   hi all
12:01 jdavidb      Just a little, kf.  Things are much better today than yesterday.  (funny what nine hours of sleep will do)
12:02 * kf         hands jdavid some chocolate
12:02 kf           sleep is a fascinating thing, would like to get more of it
12:03 * jwagner    wants chocolate too!
12:03 * jdavidb    found a recipe for home-made Snickers bars, and is thinking of making a 9x13" panful for jwagner
12:04 jwagner      Mmmmmmmmmmmm
12:05 * jdavidb    makes a note on the recipe card:  "jwagner approves."
12:05 hdl_laptop   Définit une feuille de style auxiliaire pour l'OPAC qui prend le pas sur la feuille de style primaire. Entrez le nom du fichier (si le fichier est sur le serveur) ou une URL commencant par http (si le fichier est sur un serveur distant)
12:05 jwagner      Well, I haven't approved YET -- I was indicating approval of the idea!
12:06 jwagner      Merci, hdl_laptop!
12:06 dan_paris    An other question please; An administrator can reset or change user password ? i don't find where is it..
12:07 gmcharlt     hdl_laptop: do you have any patches to fix the translateable templates errors in admin/aqplan.tmpl
12:08 hdl_laptop   Un administrateur peut réinitialiser ou changer le mot de passe utilisateur.
12:08 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: think so.
12:09 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: will  search and send you
12:09 gmcharlt     hdl_laptop++
12:10 dan_paris    hdl_laptop> oky merci
12:11 * kf         hands out chocolate to jwagner too
12:11 * jwagner    thanks kf
12:11 kf           I thought jdavidb would share
12:11 jwagner      Share?  CHOCOLATE??? You must be joking!  (I wouldn't share either.....)

12:15 gmcharlt     hdl_laptop: aqbudgets.tmpl has a similar issue of tmpl_if embeded in a <td> element
12:15 hdl_laptop   will fix that either.
12:16 hdl_laptop   any #bug ?
12:24 jwagner      hdl_laptop, see Bug 4394 -- I think the revised version takes care of your concerns with it.

12:56 jwagner      owen, thanks.  Hope it takes care of the themes directory problem with the first patch.
12:59 nengard      I have an amazon question.  I'm on my test system and have all amazon content turned on, yet when i click on reviews it says there aren't any - but on amazon there are
12:59 nengard      and i don't see any similar items even though i know i have similar items in my catlaog
12:59 nengard      do i need to do something other than turn the preferences on?
13:00 * owen       is wondering why he clicked through to that comment from Ben Ide. Terrible way to start the day.
13:00 nengard      :(
13:02 * chris_n    wonders if anyone has a patch to fix a bug he has... ie. a bad cold
13:03 owen         chris_n: I have a patch for that, but it takes a week to ten days to merge it properly.
13:03 chris_n      :D
13:03 nengard      goofy boys
13:11 jwagner      chris_n, it's on the development list, right after the cloning and time travel modules....
13:12 * chris_n    has to admit cloning should be at the top :)
13:12 owen         Man I really wish the tag moderation page linked to the record/records which users have added tags to.
13:12 nengard      owen - me too!
13:12 nengard      I'd also like to approve tags on a per title basis
13:13 nengard      in addition to as a blanket 'this word is bad'
13:13 nengard      type
13:13 nengard      i'd also like there to be a tagging utility for the staff client
13:19 chris_n      critiques: http://www.screencast.com/t/OTE0MWJk
13:20 chris_n      wb hdl_laptop
13:21 nengard      chris_n are you suggesting color coding that page? are you asking what we think?
13:21 nengard      it works for me :)
13:23 chris_n      yes, yes, great
13:23 nengard      :)
13:23 nengard      what does yellow mean?
13:23 collum       nengard: what do you envision the functionality of a tagging utility to be?
13:23 chris_n      but that is just the skin of an overhaul of the underlying code
13:23 chris_n      yellow = need to upgrade relative to Koha's requirements
13:23 collum       I would like there to be a way to populate tags based on librarything.
13:23 nengard      collum I envision a lot of changes - in order to pull tags from LT I think you need to pay for LT4L
13:23 chris_n      nengard: ie. Koha is looking for a newer version than that installed
13:24 nengard      chris_n figured that
13:25 owen         chris_n: I'd say don't highlight the good ones with green, just highlight the problems
13:25 nengard      collum i think that first, librarians should be able to add tags in bulk to items if they want.  second, tags should be searchable - or else they're just there for fun.  third, i think librarians should be able to approve/reject tags both per title and as a word (ex. if i tag harry potter as 'devil worshipping' a librarians should be able to reject that tag on harry potter but let it still be used on books about 'devil worshippi
13:25 nengard      ng')
13:25 chris_n      owen: yeah, I thought all the green might be a bit overwhelming
13:26 chris_n      not to mention ugly imho
13:26 nengard      :)
13:26 collum       all good things. Bulk and searchable would be nice.
13:27 nengard      patrons can add tags in bulk now - and techincally so can staff if they log into the opac-  but it should be in the staff client as well
13:28 nengard      collum, john blyberg mentioned some neat ideas for tags in his sopac talk: http://www.web2learning.net/archives/3712
13:30 owen         Here's an interesting case from my catalog: Someone just added a tag to this title http://search.myacpl.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=208268
13:30 owen         Their tag, "  	Wings in the Night bk. 3 "
13:30 collum       It's been a while since I played with tags.  I really like the concept of rejecting or approving on a per title basis.
13:31 owen         Helpful because the record doesn't contain that information. But since a regular search won't hit on the tag, it doesn't end up helping anyone else
13:32 owen         And since this "tag" really only applies to one title, I question whether it should be approved
13:37 * collum     wonders if a tag, after it is approved, could be incorporated into a repeatable option field in the marc record, possibly in the 900s.
13:43 chris_n      hi Nate
13:43 Nate         morning chris_n!
13:43 Nate         and everyone
13:44 sekjal       morning, Nate!
13:45 Nate         hiya sekjal
13:50 magnus       yay! http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=blob_plain;f=misc/release_notes/release_notes_3_2_0.txt;hb=HEAD
13:59 sekjal       is anyone else out there having issues with renewals on the latest code?  I'm noticing on several machines that I can't renew anything, even if I override.
14:01 * wizzyrea   goes to check
14:01 kf           sekjal: let me check, we just updated our system
14:01 sekjal       thanks, wizzyrea and kf!
14:02 kf           kf: I used an account with already checked out items, i marked 2 and renewed, it worked, but I see                     Renewal Failed for all other items - although I didnt mark them for renewal
14:03 kf           hm, and override renewal limit automagically marks all items not for renewal, I think this is a new behaviour (that I dont like9
14:04 wizzyrea     sekjal: it seems to be working for me
14:04 kf           hm
14:04 wizzyrea     let me try again
14:04 kf           when I click on override renewal on check out tab no items are marked
14:05 kf           when I click on override renewal on details tab all not renewable items are marked
14:05 kf           this is not consistend
14:05 kf           consistent
14:05 kf           swap the tabs
14:05 sekjal       there was just a new patch that fixed some of the SQL in CanBookBeRenewed, but I'm still getting a failure when I run that function.
14:06 sekjal       it's called twice, once when the page is rendered to determine what checkboxes to show, and again when you actually try to renew an item
14:06 wizzyrea     I personally don't think we should allow any processing of items on the details page
14:07 wizzyrea     display only
14:07 gmcharlt     wizzyrea: staff or OPAC?
14:07 wizzyrea     staff
14:07 wizzyrea     patron detail
14:07 wizzyrea     it's a lot to try and keep consistent, and it's not that hard to click over to the checkout tab
14:07 wizzyrea     to do work with it
14:08 wizzyrea     but I may be a cuckoo, too
14:08 kf           I think it is fixed now, but in our 3.0.61 you could only set a specific renewal date on details tab
14:08 wizzyrea     yea, that needs to be moved to the checkout if it's not there
14:08 kf           my librarians got confused
14:08 wizzyrea     it's there on the checkout page
14:09 wizzyrea     < mine definitely would have as well
14:09 kf           yes, look ok now
14:09 wizzyrea     and good morning
14:09 kf           but the error message is confusing
14:10 kf           it shows renewal fail for those item that I did not mark for renewal
14:10 kf           wizzyrea: can you confim?
14:10 kf           hm letters missing... renwal failED for those itemS...
14:10 wizzyrea     how did you test it? checked out a bunch of items, checked only a couple for renewal, clicked renew/return checked items?
14:10 wizzyrea     (making sure I'm doing the same thing you are)
14:11 kf           yes
14:11 wizzyrea     k sec
14:12 kf           hm, not sure this is new: I opened another account with overdue items and the items are already checked for renewal.
14:13 owen         Not new kf
14:14 kf           hi owen
14:14 wizzyrea     kf: I wasn't able to duplicate that
14:14 wizzyrea     the renewal fail for unchecked items
14:15 kf           wizzyrea: I tested with another account and it didnt happen again
14:15 * kf         confused
14:15 wizzyrea     were the items overdue or otherwise restricted?
14:15 wizzyrea     like, maybe someone had a hold?
14:15 kf           overdue
14:15 wizzyrea     ah all of mine were current...
14:15 wizzyrea     one sec
14:16 kf           hm
14:17 kf           wizzyrea: wait, I think I have an idea - our templates might not have been updated
14:17 wizzyrea     Ah!
14:17 wizzyrea     I have the newest stuff as of about 10 minutes ago
14:17 wizzyrea     it's all out of the bo
14:17 kf           wizzyrea: I tested with German - English is ok
14:17 wizzyrea     box*
14:17 sekjal       I think the problem I'm having is somewhere in the SQL... when working on a system with only two, simple loan rules, it behaves itself.  The SQL for CanBookBeRenewed is very complex
14:18 wizzyrea     what kind of rules are you working with?
14:18 wizzyrea     where you see the problem?
14:18 kf           i dont use default values, too many problems with other ils in the past
14:19 kf           I have every combination of borrowercategory and itemtype
14:19 wizzyrea     oh wow
14:19 wizzyrea     < impressed by your tenacity
14:19 wizzyrea     :)
14:19 wizzyrea     that must have been a bear to set up
14:20 wizzyrea     (rather, it would have been in our system)
14:22 sekjal       one of the systems I'm working on has mostly default branchcode, and only two enumerated patron categories.
14:23 schuster     Before I start beating my head against a wall...  in the Main nav in the opac what have people used there?  My boss wants some widgets and as I start "building" them I am getting lots of options, javascript, iframe, html, what have others used?
14:23 jwagner      schuster, anything from bare text to elaborate menu links :-)
14:24 wizzyrea     we have tested all of those
14:24 wizzyrea     they all seem to work
14:24 wizzyrea     what kidn of widgets?
14:24 schuster     I've got bare text...  So I'm looking at some widgets..  Do some work better than others?  Database type widgets mainly...  I'm looking at word of the day, this day in history, ebsco, gale etc...
14:25 schuster     jwagner - do you have any Koha instances that I can go and look at what you may have done?  I'm also thinking about the three boxes that I have seen others do in the middle
14:25 jwagner      The main thing, I think, is to keep it self-contained and make sure the HTML/scripts don't clash.
14:25 wizzyrea     ckls.mykansaslibrary.org uses librarything
14:25 wizzyrea     er
14:25 wizzyrea     sorry
14:25 wizzyrea     that's not the right URL at all
14:25 jwagner      schuster, not offhand -- I'd have to dig some up.  It's been a while.
14:26 wizzyrea     ckls.kohalibrary.com
14:27 schuster     That is the trick isn't it...  The vendors don't like to play nicely.
14:27 wizzyrea     ?
14:27 wizzyrea     oh you mean the widget vendors
14:27 schuster     I have to be careful what I put there as it is pertinent to ALL levels k-12(database vendors that is - the Gale widget wants to over right the ebsco widget and take over the page.
14:28 wizzyrea     ah
14:28 wizzyrea     you could do what we did
14:28 wizzyrea     and put them in the nav bar
14:29 jwagner      schuster, I didn't create this page, but I did some updates on it: http://cate.kohalibrary.com/
14:29 nengard      I have an amazon question.  For some reason only amazon cover images are working for me - none of the other content - and I'm wondering if it's possible that the slash in my awsprivatekey is causing errors in koha code - anyone think that might be it?
14:29 owen         schuster: http://nyack.waldo.kohalibrary.com/
14:29 owen         schuster: http://rfpl.kohalibrary.com/
14:30 wizzyrea     a lot of it is putting pretty graphics over links
14:31 wizzyrea     nyack is pretty
14:31 wizzyrea     rfpl definitely likes their widgets
14:31 kf           wizzyrea: I added my issuingrules with sql... ;)
14:31 wizzyrea     kf: very smart.
14:31 wizzyrea     :)
14:32 wizzyrea     we also add things to the detail pages: http://screencast.com/t/MjQ5MmE4ZWI
14:33 wizzyrea     though there's a pref for that now I think
14:33 wizzyrea     (which I thank your diety of choice for)
14:35 jwagner      wizzyrea, I think the diety for that one is named nengard :-)
14:35 nengard      huh? what? have I been promoted??
14:35 wizzyrea     we also need to remember to change the text in the system preferences for OCLCAffiliateID: they allow 1k requests/day for users with no ID now
14:35 jwagner      According to wizzyrea, you have....
14:36 wizzyrea     you made the editable block pref for the opac detail pages, right?
14:36 nengard      yes
14:36 nengard      the one for search in other
14:36 wizzyrea     then yes, you would be the diety of choice, in this case
14:36 wizzyrea     ;)
14:36 nengard      hehe :) wow - why thanks :) hehe

15:12 schuster     New question about widgets and boxes and news...  So if you are running a "custom" template you can't use news in the opac as that isn't an option..
15:12 owen         schuster: By custom do you mean using opacmainuserblock?
15:13 wizzyrea     ^^
15:13 wizzyrea     I thought the news went above that
15:13 owen         Right, you should be able to use both
15:13 schuster     Yes.
15:14 schuster     we are not using prog - templates and so when I put something in the OPAC(en) as a "news" item nothing shows up above the opacmain or nav...???
15:14 schuster     hmmm I'll go back and switch the template back to prog and see if it works then.
15:14 wizzyrea     oh, then yea, maybe your template is different

15:30 wajasu       nengard: i was wondering if anything else beside book covers should show for amazon content.
15:31 nengard      wajasu not for me
15:31 nengard      oh - sorry - yes more should show
15:31 nengard      if you have those preferences turned on
15:31 nengard      but they're not working for me right now
15:32 wajasu       maybe i just need to find something with a review....
15:34 kf           I can test tomorrow - perhaps remind me. we use amazon in our catalogs
15:36 wajasu       i also wonder if on the item detail page, when i hover/click over the book cover it links to amazon, but is there a way to get the AmazonAssociateTag added to the end of the link?
15:37 wajasu       if thats how thats supposed to work to get credit if my patron make a purchase.
15:42 owen         That's how one would expect it to work. In reality the  AmazonAssocTag  preference doesn't seem to be used at all in Koha's code.
15:42 owen         wajasu: Could you file a bug report for that?
15:43 wajasu       sure.  I'll file bug.
15:46 * owen       wonders if that was ever used... in 2.x maybe?
15:47 jwagner      owen and anyone else interested in XSLT, see Bug 4447 -- discussion?

15:48 wizzyrea     I'm for that
15:49 jwagner      The code makes it tricky -- it's building the path on the fly, based on the suffix (results or details), so it seems to be all or nothing.
15:50 kf           jwagner: I wonder if this could lead to problems with ie and https
15:50 kf           jwagner: translation is another problem
15:50 jwagner      Good one -- hadn't thought of that.  "I don't know" is the answer :-)
15:52 wajasu       i had also added the AmazonAssociateTag in my "more searches" drop down that I added.  It would be nice to have {AMAZONASSOCID} available as well. Should that be a separate enhancement?
15:52 wizzyrea     presumably, if you were using an external XSLT, you would be localizing it to your language anyway
15:52 wizzyrea     i.e. as far as translating it, you wouldn't need to, because your files aren't in the project, if that makes sense.
15:52 hdl_laptop   jwagner: I wrote a patch to allow usage of alternative xslts
15:52 hdl_laptop   I sent it.
15:52 jwagner      Yeah, my contemplated workflow is to ftp the two .xsl files from the server, customize them however you want, & stick them off on another server.  For translation, you'd copy the other language ones.
15:53 jwagner      hdl_laptop, really?  I missed that.  Do you have a bug #?
15:53 hdl_laptop   But it just needed to use different system preference
15:53 schuster     OK throw the brick at me...  On the news it works - I had today as the publish date, as soon as I set it to yesterday guess what - It shows up!
15:53 wizzyrea     yea, that's a bug
15:53 wizzyrea     one I think I fixed, actually
15:54 wizzyrea     so you probably just don't have the update that fixes that

15:56 jwagner      wizzyrea, please do attach the patch -- we can grab it from there.
15:57 wizzyrea     also this

15:57 munin        04Bug 3289: normal, P5, ---, wizzyrea@gmail.com, RESOLVED FIXED, News items do not appear on current date, must be backdated.
15:58 wizzyrea     ...you can't get it from git? sorry, I'm a bit thick.
15:59 jwagner      wizzyrea, I dunno.  Patch files are always safe :-)
15:59 hdl_laptop   http://www.mail-archive.com/koha-patches@lists.koha.org/msg04447.html
15:59 * chris_n    tries to imagine a thick wizzyrea
16:00 hdl_laptop   http://markmail.org/message/lhz34uen3ljxd6za
16:00 hdl_laptop   jwagner you can look at thos two patches
16:01 kf           ok, really time to leave, will be back later for the meeting
16:02 jwagner      hdl_laptop, thanks.  Looks like a similar approach but yours is more elaborate.  I'll update my bug report with those references.
16:02 hdl_laptop   jwagner: al you would have to add is changing xslt syspref names
16:03 hdl_laptop   + adding a default to present xslt filenames
16:04 hdl_laptop   in case XSLTOPACResult (for instance) is on And XSLTWhateveryounameit would not.
16:05 wizzyrea     coopetition++
16:05 hdl_laptop   those two patches however are a step into the desired direction and seems to me more general than a hardcoded path.
16:07 hdl_laptop   A problem not really easy to solve is the usage of OPAC stylesheets at intranet for Results.
16:07 hdl_laptop   Since at the moment, C4::Search is not "aware" of templates.
16:08 hdl_laptop   and, at the moment, the display of biblios is done not at the pl level, but in the getRecords Level, which in my opinion, is a crazy thing.
16:08 jwagner      hdl_laptop, thanks.  I'll take a look at yours & see if it does what I'm wanting.
16:08 hdl_laptop   let me know
16:09 hdl_laptop   Will be online tonight
16:11 schuster     wizzyrea - I saw you linked on the detail page to novel list - was it easy?  what did you do?
16:12 wizzyrea     I did it with jquery
16:12 wizzyrea     one sec I'll go grab the code
16:12 schuster     Cool. - I was thinking of doing something similar with a webservice that finds websites...
16:13 wizzyrea     $("li:contains('in This Series')").after("<li><a target='_blank' href='http://ksuc-agent.auto-graphics.com/homepages/customerwide/ValidateGlobalIP.asp?cuid=ksuc&amp;lid=kw9&amp;stfftype=Z&amp;defaultlang=english&amp;qmisc=&amp;mode=d&amp;dataid=183'>NoveList</a></li>");
16:13 wizzyrea     I am SURE there is a better way to pinpoint that location in the list
16:13 owen         wizzyrea: What's an example of this in use?
16:13 wizzyrea     but when I wrote it I didn't know what it was
16:14 wizzyrea     search for this title in:
16:14 wizzyrea     http://catalog.nexpresslibrary.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=147824
16:15 schuster     I'm not in Kansas anymore dorothy so the click on novel list doesn't go anywhere.  Can you do a screen shot?
16:16 owen         wizzyrea: You could try the eq() method in that kind of situation
16:16 owen         http://www.tutorialspoint.com/jquery/traversal-eq.htm
16:17 wizzyrea     hm.
16:17 schuster     OK you two are talking jquery which to me is as good as french - sorry don't understand any of it...
16:17 wizzyrea     schuster: novelist looks just like novelist anywhere else
16:18 wizzyrea     you would paste that code (or something like it) into your opacuserjs
16:18 schuster     So wizzyrea - does it actually pull the series into Novel list or just goes there and then you type in your series you are looking for?
16:18 wizzyrea     goes there and you type in the series
16:18 wizzyrea     they asked me for a link
16:18 wizzyrea     so I gave them one ;)
16:19 wizzyrea     i'm certain it could be better
16:19 schuster     It would be way cool if it actually could pull the series authority into the search!
16:20 wizzyrea     yep, though NEKLS doesn't use authorities
16:20 wizzyrea     (yet)
16:20 schuster     But they may already be in the MARC record...
16:20 wizzyrea     I agree in principle it would be cool, but 1. i'm not that smart and 2. I'm not that smart.
16:21 wizzyrea     ;)
16:21 schuster     ah but we know someone who is....  "oh owennnnn..."
16:21 * jwagner    offers owen a desk to hide under
16:22 owen         I've got a great hiding-under desk!
16:22 owen         If I had a nice mat I could nap under it
16:23 schuster     http://catalog.nexpresslibrary.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=267697 - you already have a series heading in the display...
16:23 chris_n      wonderful memories... the days when we were able to take naps; if my kids could know what I do, they'd love taking naps
16:24 jwagner      I've been lobbying for a nap room for years, at various jobs.  No luck.  Of course, I also once proposed to turn the rare book room into a staff spa complete with jacuzzi....
16:25 chris_n      hehe
16:25 schuster     OK looking at your cataloging wizzyrea - and that bib oh my... creative cataloging 101... in the series heading.
16:26 * wizzyrea   points to Sharon and Heather. They are the ones who train on that.
16:26 schuster     I can also see you are anxiously awaiting as I am for the bib merge tool!
16:26 wizzyrea     yep.
16:38 schuster     http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-2-manual/?ch=x8278  nengard / wizzyrea - in reading this should "item" really be "Title"? as it doesn't track items per say as it keeps lists of Titles.
16:40 nengard      i can change it
16:41 * wizzyrea   only puts the manual on the web ;)
16:41 wizzyrea     nengard writes it :D
16:43 nengard      git updated
16:47 wajasu       there sure are lots of systems being integrated.  are we heading into an N-to-N integration problem? where a change  to a biib or item, requires code changes in lots of modules?
16:49 wajasu       maybe there should be plans for some sort of ESB(enterprise service bus) or message bus that modules can listen on to decouple things. anyone thinking about that these days?
16:53 schuster     Thank you Ladies.
16:54 cait         hi #koha
16:59 CGI480       Hello
17:00 wizzyrea     hi
17:01 CGI480       have an query
17:01 wizzyrea     go ahead :)
17:01 CGI480       what computer language is Koha developed on
17:01 wizzyrea     Perl
17:01 CGI480       we are planning to use Koha for a client
17:02 CGI480       who needs a library management system
17:02 wizzyrea     you may want to check out the official website for Koha at http://www.koha-community.org
17:02 wizzyrea     lots of info there
17:03 wizzyrea     hi kmkale
17:04 wizzyrea     I have bad news, I don't think your patch went through :(
17:04 CGI480       since we are .Net  guys we want to stay within .net so that we can modify the stuff that we want to
17:04 wizzyrea     Ah
17:05 wizzyrea     yea, Koha doesn't go there.
17:05 CGI480       oh
17:05 CGI480       okay, thanks for the info.
17:05 wizzyrea     sure thing :)
17:06 CGI480       are you aware of some product htat you can suggest using .Net ?
17:06 wizzyrea     not FOSS
17:06 wizzyrea     that I know of
17:06 cait         dont know one
17:06 wizzyrea     ILS's in general don't go .NET (that I am aware of)
17:07 CGI480       :(
17:07 wizzyrea     lots of java, C, Perl, and PHP
17:07 kmkale       hi wizzyrea
17:07 kmkale       hi all
17:07 CGI480       okay thanks for the info
17:07 kmkale       whew!!! back up on ubuntu
17:07 wizzyrea     sure thing :)
17:08 kmkale       had to reinstall grub after upgrade to lucid
17:08 wizzyrea     owch
17:08 zico         hi
17:08 zico         i am facing problem with barcode generation
17:08 zico         our koha can generate barcode of english titles
17:08 kmkale       chris_n: i read in the irc log that my email never reached anybody. true still?
17:08 zico         but, if we go for Bangla lanugage barcode generation... pdf file shows ... "Unable to read"
17:10 nengard      wizzyrea i was wrong before - git is updated now - it wasn't before - anyway -is the script running nightly?
17:10 kmkale       zico i remember reading somewhere its a bug in the perl module. I am unable to generate barcode in Marathi or Hindi
17:10 kmkale       I use Kbarcode
17:11 kmkale       gmcharlt: did the patch mail reach you?
17:11 wizzyrea     sunday, actually
17:11 wizzyrea     I can run it anytime though
17:11 wizzyrea     want me to update it?
17:12 wizzyrea     (also, did you see the french manual?)
17:12 wizzyrea     nengard
17:12 nengard      wizzyrea - no need to update now
17:12 nengard      still writing
17:12 nengard      but maybe tomorrow would be good
17:12 nengard      and yes i saw the french!! :)
17:12 nengard      also - I updated the French so you shouldn't have errors anymore
17:12 wizzyrea     who was it that helped with that script to update? he was polish
17:13 wizzyrea     super nice guy, and I CANNOT remember his name
17:13 wizzyrea     ah ok will fetch french too.
17:14 * wizzyrea   resolves to get a master script that does all of the manuals
17:14 nengard      that would be ideal :)
17:14 nengard      of course only English and French are actively being worked on
17:14 cait         Ropuch
17:14 nengard      I have volunteers for the others but they're not actually working on it yet - not that I cna see
17:14 wizzyrea     YES
17:14 wizzyrea     thanks you
17:14 cait         nengard: guilty
17:14 nengard      :) hehe
17:15 cait         and I have to go through this ssh key thing again :(
17:15 nengard      cait actually you just send gmcharlt the same thing you sent hdl
17:15 gmcharlt     kmkale: no, it hasn't shown up
17:15 nengard      you don't have ot do it again
17:15 nengard      that's what i ddi
17:15 nengard      did
17:15 nengard      I can't type today
17:15 cait         me too :)
17:16 nengard      cait if you'd rather you can always start the edits and just email me the file once in a while and i'll take care of the git part
17:16 cait         spend all free time on distance study and no time at work for translating the manual right now
17:16 nengard      got it!
17:16 nengard      no prob
17:16 kmkale       gmcharlt: how do I test my git-email setup?
17:16 cait         but we will write some German documentation for serials soon and put it in our wiki
17:17 cait         nengard: thx -will remember you :) never pushed to a git repo
17:17 nengard      send us the link when it's done and I'll add it to the 'Other docs' page on the site
17:17 nengard      cait of course you do have to pull the files down from the repo before starting
17:17 gmcharlt     kmkale: first let's try testing your basic mail config
17:17 gmcharlt     try the following
17:17 gmcharlt     cat README |mailx -s "test message" gmcharlt@gmail.com
17:18 gmcharlt     where README is any text file that is OK for me to see
17:18 kmkale       k
17:18 cait         http://wiki.bsz-bw.de/doku.php?id=l-team:koha:koha-handbuch:start
17:18 cait         it still needs a ton of work and updates
17:19 cait         we dont explain configuration and its a bit special because its for ourl ibraries that use our union catalog for cataloging, not koha
17:19 chris_n      zico kmkale: the issue with barcodes has as its root a fundamental problem with how the pdf standard handles glifs, etc. The code in the perl modules could be fixed, but it will take a great deal of time
17:19 cait         nengard: pull is no problem, I already figured out how to do that :)
17:19 kmkale       gmcharlt:
17:19 kmkale       The program 'mailx' can be found in the following packages:
17:19 * chris_n    wonders if it would not be better to write a module to handle printing from koha rather than having the browser do it, but that presents issues as well
17:19 kmkale       * heirloom-mailx
17:19 kmkale       * mailutils
17:19 kmkale       Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>
17:20 kmkale       chris_n: i remember reading its a problem of some perl module Koha uses so its really deeper than Koha. correct?
17:21 chris_n      both to some extent, but the standard is the more costly problem
17:21 zico         chris_n kmkale: is there any option to handle this?
17:21 zico         i mean.. we have 10,000 Bangla books in our library, many of them are really rare!
17:21 zico         so.. it is very necessary for us
17:21 chris_n      atz and I had some conversation on this awhile back on the list and the issues were presented there
17:22 chris_n      zico: kmkale says kbarcode will do the trick
17:22 kmkale       gmcharlt: I have sendmail running on localhost
17:22 gmcharlt     kmkale: in that case, see what
17:22 gmcharlt     sudo mailq
17:22 gmcharlt     tells you
17:22 chris_n      zico: I've never used it and it requires some extra leg work as I understand, but many do use it
17:22 kmkale       k
17:23 chris_n      zico: search the list archives
17:23 kmkale       gmcharlt: both client and MTA ques empty with total requests zero
17:24 zico         kbarcode?? as far as i can understand.. this is third party software from kde.. right?
17:24 kmkale       zico: correct
17:25 gmcharlt     kmkale: ok, try installing mailutils and do the mailx
17:25 kmkale       gmcharlt: i have just installed mailx from mailutils and sent a mail with the cat command you gave
17:25 gmcharlt     kmkale: ok, I"ll let you know if I get it
17:25 kmkale       gmcharlt: please and thanks..
17:32 gmcharlt     kmkale: hasn't shown up; I'll ping you if it does, but I suspect that it got hung up somehwere
17:33 zico         chris_n: can u please bring me any link regarding this pdf issue? i searched with "pdf + bangla language" in mailing archive
17:33 gmcharlt     in meantime, you can sftp your patch off your server, then send it to the patches list as an attachment
17:33 zico         but, didnot find anything
17:36 kmkale       gmcharlt: I have attached it to the bug report for bug 4440
17:36 munin        04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4440 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, gmcharlt@gmail.com, NEW, Adding feature to print fines/fees receipts
17:39 chris_n      zico: http://www.mail-archive.com/koha-devel@lists.koha.org/msg02764.html (note it is still a low priority project for me)
17:48 vickiteal    Hey folks. I have another meeting prior to the community handoff meeting. I hope to be back, but may be late.
18:25 nengard      gmcharlt do you know if the template for the patron privacy setting has been pushed yet?
18:25 gmcharlt     nengard: not yet, it's on my list
18:25 nengard      no prob - just making sure I'm not missing it
18:26 owen         What setting blocks the librarian from checking out to a patron with XX amount in fines?
18:27 owen         nm, found it:  noissuescharge
18:35 owen         I have a question about uploading a barcode file to batch item mod
18:35 owen         What format is expected?
18:35 owen         One barcode per line?
18:35 owen         CSV?
18:36 chris        one barcode per line
18:36 owen         Hi chris. Neither one is working for me
18:37 chris        if you just type in the box, one barcode per line .. it does though?
18:37 owen         Yes
18:38 owen         Let me test in an unmodified branch before I go crying wolf.
18:38 * owen       has been tweaking the template
18:39 owen         No, same results
18:40 chris        the code does look like it expects one barcode per line
18:40 chris        ahh actually
18:41 chris        do you have radio buttons to choose the type of file?
18:41 owen         Yes
18:42 chris        and barcode file is chosen eh?
18:42 owen         Yes
18:43 chris        right im out of silly questions
18:44 cait         not sure I can stay awake till meeting time
18:45 chris        :(
18:45 cait         will try :)
18:45 owen         Itemnumber upload works fine
18:45 cait         just very tired
18:45 nengard      it did work in a previous version because I did it for documentation
18:46 chris        ohhh interesting owen
18:46 * chris_n    hands cait coffee
18:46 cait         thx chris_n
18:51 chris        nengard: can you remember about when you tested it?
18:51 owen         Hmmm... Making items "lost" through the batch mod interface doesn't remove them from the patron's account and add a charge
18:51 nengard      months ago
18:51 nengard      when it first was added
18:51 nengard      owen - sounds like a not good bug to me
18:51 owen         Yeah :(
18:52 chris        yep, that needs a bug filed
18:52 chris_n      regressions--
18:53 hdl_laptop   chris_n: it is not a regression on a feature. It is a lack of specification in what "marking item lost" should do
18:54 kmkale       gmcharlt: i found smtp connectoins from my ip are being refused by both gmail and yahoo ( correctly :( as its a dsl connection) thats may be why it never reached you.
18:54 owen         there is an established outcome based on the behavior of the interface on moredetail.pl
18:55 gmcharlt     kmkale: sound likely; you'll have to find somebody to relay mail for you
18:55 chris_n      hdl_laptop: I was referring to the fact the upload of a barcode file worked at one time and now does not
18:56 kmkale       gmcharlt: but now that I am trying to put in my company smtp server details in git config and do git send-email I get a Command unknown: 'AUTH' at /usr/lib/git-core/git-send-email line 981, <FIN> line 4.
18:56 hdl_laptop   owen: Is this behaviour  "centralised" in C4/Items.pm ?
18:56 kmkale       any hint?
18:56 chris_n      kmkale: could it be your isp blocking those ports?
18:56 hdl_laptop   Is it also done on additem.pl ?
18:57 hdl_laptop   coherence problem
18:57 hdl_laptop   --
18:57 kmkale       chris_n : no I can telnet and get the standard smtp greeting
18:57 kmkale       any hints on " Command unknown: 'AUTH' at /usr/lib/git-core/git-send-email line 981, <FIN> line 4. " ??
18:58 DRULM        Hello.
18:58 DRULM        Starting at 3pm I assume.
18:58 chris_n      kmkale: not sure on that one
18:58 gmcharlt     DRULM: correct
18:58 owen         hdl_laptop: True, when setting the status via the additem interface I don't have the same expectation
18:58 larsw        kmkale, http://freerelay.err.no/ may also be useful for relaying purposes
18:59 hdl_laptop   owen: why so ?
18:59 sekjal       I'm doing some enhancements of Auth_with_ldap which require another perl module to be installed.  it is fortunately debian packaged.  where else should I update this information besides install-misc/debian.packages?
19:00 gmcharlt     sekjal: about.pl, Makefile.PL
19:00 gmcharlt     at least until chris_n finishes his Koha dependency registry
19:01 owen         hdl_laptop: It's entirely subjective, sloppy reasoning probably.
19:01 sekjal       thanks, gmcharlt.  on it!
19:01 owen         hdl_laptop: Setting a lost status should have the same effect anywhere unless the interface offers alternatives
19:02 nengard      owen i get is - if i'm adding an item why would it be lost? and if i'm adding a lost item to the collection for some strange reason then i can assume that it's not checked out by a patron
19:02 chris_n      kmkale: the only thing I find suggests just setting sendmail.smtpserver and nothing else
19:02 chris_n      ie. let it prompt you for your un/passwd
19:02 larsw        sekjal, you could also patch debian/control with the new dependency
19:03 gmcharlt     looks like it's 19:00 UTC+0
19:03 hdl_laptop   nengard: additem.pl can be used also as a update
19:03 gmcharlt     so let's get starte
19:03 hdl_laptop   hi
19:03 gmcharlt     page for meeting is http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:events:meetings:irc_meetings:meetingnotes10may04
19:03 gmcharlt     current agenda is

19:09 gmcharlt     next agenda item:
19:09 gmcharlt     2. Report on Subcommittee
19:09 jransom      th eblog post on the koha-community.org site was fairly complete
19:09 wizzyrea     http://koha-community.org/hlt-koha-committee-report-on-discussions-with-ptfs/
19:11 jransom      I'm happy to answer any questions people have
19:11 DRULM        Any progress, or still the same?
19:11 jransom      as I'm the entire committee is - we acted together throughout, agreeing on words and courses of action
19:12 jransom      no contact other than Kelly's post which I fear was very poorly judged
19:13 jransom      can someone postthe link to that one here toplease
19:13 nengard      http://www.liblime.com/news/liblime-thoughts
19:13 reed         is there anyone here who can speak for PTFS?
19:14 owen         PTFS doesn't speak for itself on IRC
19:14 genji        greetings all
19:14 chris        genji: we are in the community meeting so you might like to intro yourself
19:15 richard      sorry, for being late - richard from katipo
19:15 genji        uh... drat.... when did it start?
19:15 chris        13 mins ago
19:15 genji        wheres the log?
19:15 jransom      http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2010-05-04 for what you've missed
19:15 genji        Thanks.
19:16 owen         No questions for jransom?
19:16 nengard      sounds to me the posts in question answer both the 1st & 2nd agenda items
19:16 nengard      both were very clear
19:16 jransom      ok - well I guess thats the report from the cubcom done
19:16 * owen       agrees
19:16 joetho       The failed conference call was unfortunate.
19:17 chris        for the record the nz tm application still is in place, ie has not been withdrawn .. so nothing has changed
19:17 joetho       However, it seemed doomed from the start.
19:17 owen         PTFS failed to agree to terms for a call which would maintain openness, as I understand it
19:17 genji        Hi, Im Waylon Robertson, 33rd committer to Koha, currently developer for mandumah.com, an arabic digital archive library.
19:17 jransom      I increasingly felt that it would be counter productive
19:18 rhcl         so what, if anything, does the community need to do at this point?
19:18 chris        release alpha2
19:18 joetho       It seemed that way to me too, as an outsider looking in.
19:18 chris        oh wait, we just did
19:18 owen         I appreciate all who refused to sign an NDA just they could talk to PTFS
19:18 chris        :)
19:18 chris_n      +1
19:18 nengard      +1
19:18 wizzyrea     +!
19:18 genji        ...
19:18 wizzyrea     +1, even
19:18 joetho       The NDA was ridiculous.
19:19 genji        NDA, just so one could talk?
19:19 vokalr       +!
19:19 chris        i think it needs to be stated the NDA was prior to the conference call
19:19 chris        that was with individual people
19:19 chris        in discussions going back months
19:19 joetho       but - moving forward - how to deal with this?
19:19 gmcharlt     correct, the NDA was not meant as a condition for discussion between PTFS and the Koha subcommitee collecitvely
19:20 chris        i was only semi joking when i said release alpha2
19:20 joetho       initiate communication between PTFS CEO and ... _____________ (who?)
19:20 nengard      I'm with Chris - to move forward we just do - we continue to do what we're doing
19:20 nengard      continue adding content to the new official site and keep working on pushing koha 3.2 out
19:21 joetho       I wonder if it would help to have a single person attempt communication with the Koha trademark holder?
19:21 genji        Well, it seems PTFS doesn't understand that Koha is biggerr than HLT?
19:21 rhcl         Would somebody from NZ care to comment briefly on the meaning of PTFS's NZ trademark app?
19:21 jransom      george: http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2010-05-04
19:21 vickiteal    I agree on moving forward, but also as Joanna posted, it was the Committee that canceled the call.
19:21 owen         I agree... Koha will move forward without PTFS. But: Is there something more we can do to fight the trademark application?
19:21 chris        Joann vickiteal
19:21 chris        -a
19:21 vickiteal    Sorry Joann!
19:21 jransom      sorry - with goeorge on phone
19:22 joetho       I think there is a process to contest trademark applications in the United States- something similar in NZ?
19:22 chris        yes, the call was cancelled, i think we have been clear with the reasons why
19:22 jransom      my apologies
19:22 jransom      Georeg Sue is here now - Chair, HLT
19:22 owen         Pointing at who canceled the call isn't helpful IMO
19:22 joetho       agree w owen
19:22 chris_n      and is beside the point as the reasoning was sound
19:22 chris        joetho: if it is accepted in NZ
19:22 Nate         Here in the US, assets held by indegenous (sp) cultures are held very close to those cultures
19:22 chris        joetho: then we have 3 months to object
19:22 chilts       oopse, missed the start ... Andrew Chilton, Catalyst IT :)
19:23 jransom      we get to challenge the application
19:23 chris        joetho: and we will
19:23 Nate         so if the Maori were made aware of this application they may be interested in taking action
19:23 genji        And have us in the papers...
19:23 jransom      we have spoken to the Ministrty of Maori affairs already
19:23 Nate         just a thought?
19:23 gmcharlt     Nate: that is a standard part of NZ trademark review, as I understand
19:23 jransom      yes it is
19:23 chris        it would nice to not have to waste time and money
19:23 chris        though
19:23 joetho       irc log for today, current within a minute or two:  http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2010-05-04
19:24 genji        trademark challenges are a popular thing to appear in the dominion post, especially david vs goliath, indigenous vs overseas use.
19:24 jransom      Sharon thought it would be a very interesting story for Wired or some Tech magazine
19:24 chris        yeah going after a small library trust in nz factor too .. it wont be good pres
19:24 chris        s
19:25 joetho       I would interpret the NZ trademark application as a very ominous sign of PTFS plans.
19:25 owen         Anyone consider the possibility of challenging the trademark in the US as well?
19:25 jransom      showing how an open source community and project can be the victim of a takeover by some corportae who wants it
19:25 * gmcharlt   points out that the NZ trademark application was not made by PTFS
19:25 chris        jransom: it cant be
19:25 chris        thats the point
19:25 nengard      owen if they only have 3 months in NZ to contest - I'm sure there is something similar here in the US
19:25 jransom      I had an email from someone - its about $2kUSD to cghallenge
19:25 gmcharlt     but by Metavore prior to the assumption of LibLime by PTFS
19:25 chris        yep
19:25 rhcl         agree with joetho
19:25 chris_n      owen: SFLC was consulted on that
19:26 jransom      so has PTFS 'purchased' that application or not
19:26 jransom      and we will never know
19:26 genji        when liblime brought Koha division... was there any sign  that this could happen, before katipo?
19:26 jransom      advice was a challenge would fail
19:26 joetho       I was thinking of the US trademark issue this morning. Wondered how that relates to the general Koha license
19:26 rhcl         thd was working with some OS people--and then that was put on hold
19:26 rhcl         should that be restarted?
19:26 genji        .. before katipo signed... sorry..
19:26 chris_n      SFLC thought the US trademark would not be succesfully challenged
19:27 jransom      I have come round to thinking it doesn't matter. The koha community is fiercely defending our right to operate our project as we choose
19:27 joetho       what about some other organization ALSO applying for the Koha tm in NZ ?
19:27 chris        i agree, i think the ball is in ptfs' court
19:27 joetho       that would certainly force the issue
19:27 jransom      if PTFS threaten to sue us they look worse than they do (which cant be good for business) and we rename and keep moving forward
19:27 jransom      the world will not stop turning
19:27 genji        joetho: HLT already is.
19:27 vokalr       Yes, that's what I'm wondering: what happens to us if they get a trademark?
19:28 chris        vokalr: PTFS have US trademark already
19:28 jransom      We have filed a counter application in NZ for Koha
19:28 vokalr       And what does that do to us?
19:28 genji        oh wait... in nz. sorry.
19:28 jransom      we have used it for 10 years remember
19:28 * genji      is half asleep..
19:28 chris_n      vokalr: not much
19:28 chris        vokalr: nothing unless they try to enforce it
19:28 chris_n      and even then it might be doubtful that enforcement on the koha project would be successful
19:29 jransom      court of public opinion cricifys them
19:29 chris        the way i see it, we need to stop thinking talking about ptfs/lek
19:29 vokalr       And when they try to enforce it, does that mean we just have to change the name?
19:29 chris_n      due to long-standing acceptance of usage by the trademark holder
19:29 jransom      (did you like that spelling :)
19:29 chris        and just continue to move on with koha-community.org
19:29 owen         chris: I just want to make sure we're doing what we can on the remaining open fronts, like the TM.
19:29 larsw        if PTFS does not enforce their US trademark against us, they risk losing the trademark; if they do enforce it, we may have to change the name, but PTFS gets lots of bad publicity, we get lots of sympathy; win/win
19:30 jransom      ultimately we may which will be sad but not the end of the world
19:30 vokalr       So it's bau.
19:30 richard      i think so
19:30 wizzyrea     the ultimate goal is to make great software, right?
19:30 wizzyrea     regardless of the name?
19:30 joetho       I am not particularly familiar with ins and outs of the GNU license, but *surely* there is some protection there?
19:30 jransom      thats my thinking
19:30 sekjal       now that the conference call is no longer happening, is communication between PTFS and the Committee staled?
19:30 vokalr       The code is still open
19:30 chris        sekjal: yes, there has been no further communicaton
19:30 joetho       how about "Joe-ha"?
19:30 joetho       I like it.
19:30 gmcharlt     sekjal: at this point, yes, but we remain open to a discussion with PTFS
19:30 larsw        joetho, GPL provides no protections related to trademarks
19:31 vickiteal    I agree, isn't the code the important thing.
19:31 jransom      pTFS are absolutely welcome to comunicate with the community as every other vendor does
19:31 vickiteal    You have already established koha-community.org as a successful web site.
19:31 * chris_n    hoped they might show up at this meeting
19:31 robin-home   Remaining to "kia kaha" wouldn't be the end of the world:)
19:31 vokalr       Whatever it changes to, I need it to start w/ a K so I don't have to change vokal
19:31 sekjal       from the committee's point of view, what is required from PTFS to make a dialogue happen?
19:31 jransom      lol
19:31 jransom      I like it!
19:31 jransom      kia kaha = be strong
19:31 rhcl         kia is a korean kar. maybe not so good?
19:32 chris_n      lol
19:32 rhcl         trademark, and kia is not a very good car either
19:32 wizzyrea     kaha = strong?
19:32 vokalr       kaha! Yes!
19:32 joetho       A name change seems drastic.
19:32 jransom      we invited PTFS to try and agree on the things we could agree with via email
19:32 gmcharlt     sekjal: written update on one of the top four issues - NZ traemark, for instance, could be easily disposed of
19:32 jransom      too early i think
19:33 jransom      i can't see what PTFS have to gain by alienating the entire koha world
19:33 rhcl         really
19:33 genji        i might say, that kia can be reused..... Koha itself has many trademarks under its name. its even a new zealand wine.
19:33 gmcharlt     but in the meantime, I think focus should be on 3.2, then 3.4

19:33 jransom      I agree
19:33 wizzyrea     < just wants to help make a great ILS
19:33 jransom      we have been very honest with PTFS - not wasting their time.
19:33 jransom      there are things we can talk about - and others we can't
19:34 jransom      there are things which are bottom lines
19:34 nengard      that said this meeting is supposed to be the handover meeting - so my question is - is the handover done? It seems that we have transferred what needs to be transferred
19:34 wizzyrea     yea, status of other web presences?
19:34 wizzyrea     k-c.org is up... what about the wiki/bugs/git?
19:34 gmcharlt     git.koha-community.org is up and running
19:34 chris        bugs.koha-community.org is up
19:34 gmcharlt     seems to be stable, and has git statistics
19:34 nengard      wiki.koha-community.org is up :)
19:35 jransom      woo hoo
19:35 gmcharlt     transition to that will just need instructions
19:35 wizzyrea     well
19:35 owen         Oh bugs are migrated too?
19:35 reed         mailing list pages
19:35 chris        i have done test migration
19:35 gmcharlt     no, bugs are not yet migrated
19:35 jransom      the new manual?
19:35 nengard      manual has been up for a while
19:35 gmcharlt     but will take a bit more organization to migrate
19:35 chris        jransom: the new manual was done ages ago
19:35 wizzyrea     http://koha-community.org/documentation/
19:35 jransom      so what is left to transfer?
19:35 wizzyrea     in english AND french ;)
19:35 chris        the bugs are all backed up
19:35 sekjal       contribs?
19:35 gmcharlt     since we'll need to get user accounts set up
19:35 nengard      and by done chris means in it's new home - but not completely written yet :) hehe
19:35 gmcharlt     sekjal: contribs just needs a host, but is small
19:36 chris        lists.koha-community.org points to a new biblibre host
19:36 wizzyrea     we could probably do contribs on KLOW
19:36 wizzyrea     if I can get a DNS name for it
19:36 wizzyrea     as a sub site of k-c
19:36 chris        we need a volunteer for download.koha-community.org
19:36 chris_n      think bandwidth
19:36 * wizzyrea   hides
19:37 richard      i'll check with si to see what he thinks about that
19:37 gmcharlt     I think we'll just need a relatively inexpensive FTP host
19:37 gmcharlt     and perhaps mirrors on a couple conteintents
19:37 schuster     David Schuster  - Plano ISD
19:38 chris        wizzyrea: i can do dns for ya
19:38 larsw        what's download.koha-community.org for? the release tarballs?
19:38 chris        larsw: yes
19:38 chris        wizzyrea: talk after the meeting :)
19:38 hdl_laptop   could be with debain packages
19:38 gmcharlt     hdl_laptop: hosting is ready for the debina packages
19:39 chris        ah yes debian.koha-community.org is being set up
19:39 genji        as a true debian repository i can apt-get on?
19:39 chris        yes
19:39 genji        Sweet!
19:39 vokalr       Yay!
19:40 larsw        any idea of the bandwidth required for download.k-c.org?
19:40 chris        not sure, ptfs could tell us :-)
19:40 chilts       heh
19:41 joetho       Invite support vendors to provide mirrors?
19:41 chris        bandwidth is stupid expensive in nz
19:41 jransom      Hi biglego, we are in a meeting. would you like to identify yourself
19:41 chris        at lesat international transit is
19:41 larsw        mirroring is good, but introduces complexity: start with one, then add mirrors if necessary?
19:41 fredericd    Frédéric Demians, Tamil -- good evening, or so
19:42 gmcharlt     larsw: makes sense
19:42 jransom      we could invite vendors to host mirrors
19:42 Nate         I will speak with Brendan about ByWater being of assistance if needed
19:42 jransom      even 1 goes bad it doesn't matter
19:42 chris        jransom: larsw just answered that :-)
19:42 gmcharlt     to bring this meeting round again - I think we're getting situated regarding koha-community.org services
19:42 chris        yep
19:42 brendan      Brendan Gallagher, ByWater Solutions (late to the show - but I've caught up)
19:43 gmcharlt     and I should point out that the new websites are not just alternatives, but in many cases have additional or upgraded features from the current koha.org ones
19:43 chris_n      it might be good to provide some email@koha-community.org for elected koha community positions
19:43 nengard      like the bugs site no longer has the ugly bug on it :) hehe
19:43 hdl_laptop   where is translate.koha-community.org ?
19:43 chris        yeah bugs is a much newer versio
19:43 jransom      (the new website is just great - kudos to all involved)
19:43 chris        and accepts formated email
19:44 chris        to update and create bugs
19:44 gmcharlt     e.g., bugs.koha-community.org has the latest stable release of bugzilla, which ... drumroll ... had some scientific UI testing done on it
19:44 wizzyrea     we could set up a google apps domain for that... it'd be free
19:44 chris_n      yup
19:44 hdl_laptop   up and running to.
19:44 Nate         Have we spoken at all about the promotion of the new site?
19:44 chris        yep, fredericd has been working on that hdl_laptop
19:44 Nate         ie having funds set aside for marketing etc..
19:44 hdl_laptop   good
19:44 wizzyrea     nate: not formally
19:44 gmcharlt     Nate: usage is the best promotion
19:44 brendan      gmcharlt++ #excellent point many of these services will be better with the upgrades to software
19:45 nengard      Nate the new site is already on the 1st page of results on Google - a few more links to it and I bet it will move up :)
19:45 larsw        link to the new site whenever mentioning Koha
19:45 wizzyrea     yes, they have all gotten some much needed love
19:45 * wizzyrea   has been watching fairly carefully the google analytics for k-c.org
19:45 wizzyrea     and putzing about the webmaster tools
19:45 fredericd    reversly, is there any service still on koha.org domain? wiki?
19:45 wizzyrea     all are still up
19:46 schuster     Do we need to "update" any of the documentation for entering enhancements or are the fields all ok  etc. or has someone done that already?
19:46 reed         there does need to be a short simple updated explanation so casual visitors can understand whys and whats between k.o and k-c.or
19:46 gmcharlt     schuster: pointers will undoubted get updated as things get moved/copied over
19:46 wizzyrea     like this: http://koha-community.org/home/
19:47 chris_n      shall I pursue setting up a google apps account for koha-community.org?
19:47 reed         wizzyrea, yeah, I guess that is still correct and complete
19:47 brendan      so when do we stop updating and posting to koha.org ?
19:47 wizzyrea     a couple of months ago :P
19:47 chris        the website?
19:47 brendan      not the website but the different sub domains
19:47 wizzyrea     oh, that, nm >.>
19:47 brendan      like wiki or git
19:47 brendan      of mailing lists
19:47 * sekjal     is currently writing up a bug report on bugs.koha.org
19:47 brendan      s/of/or
19:48 genji        what would google apps give us?
19:48 wizzyrea     we should set a cutoff date
19:48 brendan      +1
19:48 chris_n      +1
19:48 chris_n      genji: to provide some email@koha-community.org for elected koha community positions
19:48 gmcharlt     genji: not necessarily anything we need - just need overall mail service, but perhaps can tie off of biblibre's management of the mailng lists for that?
19:48 wizzyrea     genji: in terms of email hosting? up to 50 accounts @ 7GB+ each
19:48 hdl_laptop   wizzyrea: for koha.org services ?
19:48 schuster     Do you have a timeframe for bugs.koha-community.org?  Do we all have to reregister or???
19:48 wizzyrea     yea
19:49 genji        ah... a replacement for domain hosted horde...
19:49 chris        i can migrate bugs any time after users are registered (using the same email address as on koha.org)
19:49 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: yes We can do that.
19:49 wizzyrea     so go do it... like, now.
19:49 larsw        chris, can you post an announcement to get people to register?
19:50 wizzyrea     :)
19:50 chris        can do, people agree that is a good idea?
19:50 wizzyrea     +1
19:50 chris_n      +1
19:50 owen         +1
19:50 vokalr       It just took me 30 seconds to register.
19:50 cait         what happens with bugs people do not reregister for?
19:50 vokalr       +1
19:50 chris        i can do an announcement on the website and the mailing lists (koha + devel)
19:50 nengard      +1   (but I'd wait until all the content is moved - and we're supposed to start using it)
19:50 sekjal       +1
19:50 chris        cait: they get assigned to me
19:50 Nate         +1
19:50 joetho       will there be a problem with developers registering with a different email address than they used for old bugs?
19:50 chris        so please dont let that happen
19:50 gmcharlt     +1
19:50 cait         chris: ah, ok
19:50 chris        joetho: if they do, their bugs get assigned to me
19:50 gmcharlt     joetho: the old email addresses will need to be used for the migration, but can be changed afterwards
19:50 chris        and i yell at them
19:51 * chilts     is collecting all the subdomains mentioned -> http://paste.dollyfish.net.nz/498acf
19:51 * chris_n    sees chris's list getting big :)
19:51 chilts       so I know more ;)
19:51 hdl_laptop   +1
19:51 wizzyrea     (you don't want that)
19:51 wizzyrea     (chris yelling at you)
19:51 chris        hehe
19:51 schuster     Let me know if there is something I can help you with chris.
19:52 chris        theres plenty ptfs customers can do
19:52 chris        and i think they know what it is :)
19:52 chris_n      chilts: mail.koha-community.org perhaps
19:52 genji        who gets koha-community.org emails?
19:52 gmcharlt     schuster: you might want to ahve a go at checking out the new BZ now - there are some features that I think you'll like
19:52 wizzyrea     ^^
19:52 * reed       heads to the train
19:52 schuster     I just registered..
19:52 wizzyrea     was thinking of you when I saw it schuster
19:52 chris        cool :)
19:52 chris        try out the sponsorship stuff
19:53 chris        beware any bugs you put there, i will trash in the migraton
19:53 chris        so dont put real stuff there yet
19:53 wizzyrea     so yea, we probably do need to update docs re: sponsoring
19:53 schuster     k - and several of us PTFS customers are doing what we can as you know.
19:53 chris        *nod*
19:53 wizzyrea     ^^
19:53 chris        that was a general statement
19:54 chris        not directed at anyone in particular
19:54 vickiteal    Is there going to be a place to list events other than the calendar?
19:54 gmcharlt     vickiteal: there could be - what kind of place do you have in mind?
19:54 nengard      why do we need more than one place?e
19:54 chris        they all show in the events category
19:54 chris        http://koha-community.org/category/events/
19:55 chris        like that vickiteal ?
19:55 wizzyrea     < is happy to do (almost) whatever anybody wants
19:55 vickiteal    I'm gonna have to think about what I want! Right now, you click on a date, right?
19:55 wizzyrea     not necessarily
19:55 wizzyrea     you can also click on Events under categories
19:55 nengard      there is an RSS feed and a category page as well
19:56 vickiteal    Thanks. I'll look around.
19:56 chris        http://koha-community.org/category/events/feed/  <-- rss feed for events
19:56 nengard      as for the new sites, do we just wait for an announcement before we start to use them? git and bugs etc etc
19:57 vickiteal    Thanks Chris.
19:57 chris        i thnk wiki start now
19:57 chris        git start now
19:57 nengard      gmcharlt said we need instructions for git
19:58 chris        yeah if you dont know how to change remotes
19:58 gmcharlt     nengard: well, more that people in general will need instructions, but those who are already git experts will be fine
19:58 nengard      ah
19:58 jransom      A post to the discussion list and on the new k-c.org listing all the services now up and running sounds it might be a good idea
19:58 wizzyrea     update the git documentation
19:58 wizzyrea     because it's mighty fine git documentation
19:58 robin-home   Sounds like a good use of the new wiki
19:59 wizzyrea     shame to waste it ;)
19:59 chris        ill do a post about bugs when i get to work
19:59 schuster     Is there anything in the new wiki?  looks pretty blank?
19:59 wizzyrea     nope, nothing in it yet
19:59 nengard      schuster nothing there yet
19:59 wizzyrea     or very little
19:59 richard      i think it's just there and ready to put stuff into
19:59 gmcharlt     schuster: yep, that's on purpose - part of the reason for doing it that way is to ensure that all wiki content is under the GPL2
19:59 larsw        is there a grand plan for the new wiki content,or should we just add things ad hoc?
19:59 chris        what richard said
19:59 nengard      larsw i'd love to see some structure
20:00 schuster     So the minutes/agendas from this meeting for example should go there and then maybe a link from the old meeting site on the old wiki?
20:00 nengard      personally
20:00 gmcharlt     larsw: well, absent somebody else volunteering to be the wiki editor, I'd say just go for it
20:00 * chris_n    thinks thd was doing wiki engineering
20:00 gmcharlt     thd had volunteered, but doesn't have much time at the moment
20:00 larsw        nengard, do you have an outline for the structure?
20:00 gmcharlt     afaik
20:00 owen         chris_n: What does that mean?
20:00 nengard      I don't mind putting structure to the wiki
20:00 wizzyrea     well and there was that whole namespace discussion from a while back
20:00 nengard      larsw I don't have one yet
20:00 nengard      but I'll gladly add wiki editor to my doc manager duties
20:01 gmcharlt     nengard++
20:01 * wizzyrea   doesn't know the details but it was quite an involved deal
20:01 chris_n      owen: aka working on setting up wiki structure
20:01 brendan      nengard++
20:01 wizzyrea     I will help out with that, nengard
20:01 schuster     She must be a librarian that nengard...
20:01 nengard      if no one has any objects I'll start working on creating some top level pages for people to move content too
20:01 chris_n      it does seem to naturally fall to nengard's realm :)
20:01 schuster     Always wanting structure...
20:01 wizzyrea     to help maintain continuity between the website and the wiki
20:02 chris_n      wizzyrea++
20:02 wizzyrea     and reduce duplication of effort >.>
20:02 chilts       chris: is this the current state of usage? http://paste.dollyfish.net.nz/db9485
20:02 gmcharlt     reminder: ping me if you need shell access to the wiki server
20:02 * chilts     hopes that helps
20:02 chris        yes
20:02 chris        that does help
20:02 chris        contrib
20:02 chris        is the other one
20:03 wizzyrea     contribs, yea
20:03 * chilts     adds
20:03 chilts       is that a 'use now' one?
20:03 wizzyrea     no, it's not ready
20:03 wizzyrea     haven't even started it
20:03 chris        ditto for shell access to the bugzilla server
20:03 chris        ping me
20:03 larsw        chilts, add that to the wiki? someone can then add exlanations for the purpose of each domain
20:03 chilts       heh
20:03 chilts       larsw: good idea :)
20:03 wizzyrea     very good idea
20:03 wizzyrea     very glad you're on our team larsw :)
20:03 * chilts     goes in search of the wiki ... lol!
20:04 chilts       it's kinda self-recursion :)
20:04 gmcharlt     ok, so to bring this meeting to a close
20:04 gmcharlt     is there a current need to schedule another meeting?
20:04 chris        i dont think so
20:04 chris_n      seems not
20:05 gmcharlt     or leave it until circumstances change?
20:05 chris_n      +1
20:05 magnus_away  +1
20:05 jransom      if anything changes we can all a meeting
20:05 richard      +1
20:05 hdl_laptop   +1
20:05 jransom      +1
20:05 owen         +1

20:05 vokalr       +1
20:05 collum       +1
20:05 chris        the rest can be discussed in the regular meetings
20:05 Nate         +1
20:05 joetho       Here's hoping for good news.
20:05 schuster     +1 - hope springs eternal.
20:05 Colin        +1
20:05 joetho       +1
20:05 gmcharlt     ok, so noted
20:05 vickiteal    But, the door is open for further negotiation if both PTFS and the community agrees, right?
20:05 gmcharlt     vickiteal: yes
20:06 chris        i think ptfs are smart enough that they will do the right thing
20:06 joetho       absolutely
20:06 chris        vickiteal: it was never closed
20:06 vickiteal    Also, the koha.org issue is separate from development, right?
20:06 gmcharlt     vickiteal: entirely separate
20:06 chilts       hmm, I wonder if the front page is ok for that domain list?
20:06 chris        not by us, the same mechanisms that have served everyone else for 11 years are all still there
20:06 vickiteal    OK. Thanks.
20:06 GeorgeSue    thanks guys for all your inport:)
20:06 gmcharlt     any issues concerning LLEK are in the hands of PTFS and its customers at this point
20:06 joetho       Renaming seems drastic, to me, but it would certainly resolve  a few issues
20:06 gmcharlt     I for one encourage release of it
20:07 chris_n      +1
20:07 joetho       +1
20:07 gmcharlt     but development of mainstream Koha will go on regardless
20:07 chris        i wouldnt support renaming unless forced to
20:07 * magnus     waves "good night" to the wonderful Koha-crowd
20:07 jransom      me neither
20:07 chris        as an nzer of maori descent i find the propsect quite appalling
20:07 joetho       ok, define "forced to"
20:07 chris        trademark action is taken against us libraries or us support companies
20:08 vickiteal    My opinion, renaming is very premature.
20:08 vokalr       Agree
20:08 jransom      I agree absoluitely.
20:08 chris        and we get advice that we would lose the case
20:08 jransom      will be up to PTFS to make that happen
20:08 jransom      but there is no win for them long term so why would they?
20:08 joetho       And just how deep are their pockets for a suit like that?
20:08 chris_n      joetho: there are organization who provide legal counsel to foss projects for things like that as well
20:09 chris_n      at no charge
20:09 * chris_n    must go vote (if only to secure whining rights)
20:09 vickiteal    I think talk of a suit is premature as well, my opinion.
20:09 chris        yeah, renaming is off the table barring circumstances changing imho
20:09 gmcharlt     vickiteal: agreed - no reason to invite trouble
20:09 * wizzyrea   likes the name we have
20:09 joetho       The vendor in question *may* be pondering these issues at this very moment.
20:09 gmcharlt     in any event, I declare this meeting closed
20:09 vokalr       I don't think it would be a good business decision on their part
20:09 schuster     Remember PTFS didn't actually file it originally...  They have a lot on their plate to deal with and figure out what is going on...
20:10 jransom      of course - but PTFS are not stupid.
20:10 joetho       Schuster: I agree. Talk about "buying a pig in a poke"
20:10 chris        schuster: 19 days now .. 20 min phone call to get it pulled
20:10 chris        (the nz one that is)
20:10 chilts       links on front page -> http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
20:10 jransom      its probably 2 min phone call
20:10 schuster     Thanks all - look forward to the meeting tomorrow.  Thanks for all the hard work on the 3.2(alpha2)
20:10 chilts       looks nice
20:10 chris        that excuse only stretches so far
20:11 jransom      Great working with everyone - thanks all :)
20:11 vokalr       Ciao!
20:11 owen         Thanks jransom
20:11 joetho       3.2 release is a pretty significant step forward.
20:11 chris        http://git.koha-community.org/stats/koha-master/tags.html
20:11 chris        619 committs since alpha1
20:11 chris        great work all
20:11 joetho       And it represents billions of hours of work for which all of us are grateful.,
20:12 * owen       has contributed at least 1 billion hours just today
20:12 genji        so, chris, mandumah finally said yes to upgrading from 3rc1.  So... whats my highest version to  go to, 3.05? or something else?
20:12 chilts       heh
20:12 brendan      owen+
20:12 brendan      owen++
20:12 * wizzyrea   wonders what kind of quantum parallel universe Owen lives in
20:12 chris        maybe hold off for 3.2 release?
20:13 chris        but 3.0.5 is the latest stable
20:13 cm           owen has a Time-Turner?  ;)
20:13 owen         Man, I wish
20:14 owen         I'd sleep until morning and turn it back for another night's sleep
20:14 chris        heh
20:14 cm           a tardis would be cooler.  :)  but i'd take either.
20:14 * robin-home gets out of bed to hopefully get that migration script completed today (IRC meetings are handy :)
20:15 genji        right.. well... i can get my mods and my predecessors mods to 3rc1, gitted and then i can rebase,  to 3.05... and later, i can just git to 3.2?
20:15 gmcharlt     genji: yep
20:15 * chilts     gets up too
20:15 chris        yep time to get up and go to work
20:15 chilts       heh
20:15 richard      heh
20:16 genji        So... how do i get my mods into my own 3rc1, so i can rebase?
20:16 cait         time to sleep here :)
20:16 gmcharlt     genji: are you starting from a git clone?
20:16 cait         good night all
20:16 * chris      heads off
20:17 jransom      oh good lord - why doidn't i do that! i got up at in the middle of the night - harrassed 3 sleepy children out of bed and into showers since they have to make their own lunches and walk to the bus stop then drove like a mad woman into work. Its so friggin cold I'm wrapped in a balnket because it was still dark and I dressedwrongly for the weather :)
20:17 chilts       :(
20:17 chilts       it's warming up now though :)
20:17 jransom      will go and stand in a patch of sunlight in the carpark outside I think
20:18 chilts       good plan
20:18 * chilts     waves goodbye for now
20:18 jransom      cya
20:18 genji        gmcharlt: its laid out correctly, like a git clone yes. but it did not have any git info before i did a git fetch of 3rc1, then copied the files over.
20:19 genji        whats the first patch since 3rc1? how can i test that indeed, i have 3rc1 and not a later release?
20:19 schuster     jransom - wireless laptop sitting in bed...  good idea... ;)
20:20 robin-home   jransom: yeah that's the wrong way to do it:) I just lay in bed with my phone connected to IRC.
20:21 genji        hm... i could of sat in bed with my wifi pda... but I wouldn't of been able to respond.
20:22 genji        gmcharlt: ?
20:26 wizzyrea     http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/index.php/Bug_Reporting_Guidelines
20:26 wizzyrea     it's one of my pets. :P
20:27 genji        gmcharlt: hello?
20:37 gmcharlt     ebegin: pong
20:37 gmcharlt     ack, sorry
20:37 gmcharlt     genji: pong
20:37 ebegin       gmcharlt, yes^
20:37 genji        gmcharlt: did you see my response?
20:37 gmcharlt     ebegin: sorry, didn't mean to ping you
20:38 ebegin       :) np
20:38 gmcharlt     genji: I had stepped out; anyway, you can do is to make a new git clone of 3rc1
20:38 gmcharlt     copy your production version over
20:38 gmcharlt     do a git diff
20:38 gmcharlt     and start organizing your local customizations into a set of commits on the cline
20:39 gmcharlt     once you've got that situation, you can then try rebasing against the current 3.0.x head
20:39 genji        okay.... im not even sure how to commit.
20:46 gmcharlt     genji: ah, have you used git at all?
20:46 genji        only to fetch
20:46 genji        to show..
20:47 genji        and to log.
20:47 genji        yea.. basically..  read only functionality.
20:47 gmcharlt     ok - first step will be a perusal of http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:git_usage
20:48 gmcharlt     particularly the 'for developers sectoin'
20:48 gmcharlt     how extensive are your customizations?
20:48 genji        ah.... this isn't good... 3rc1 is 3.00 00 094?
20:49 gmcharlt     yep
20:50 genji        yet i have a side by side view of 094 and our install of koha.... 094 is supposed to have, under modbiblio "Exported function (core API) etc" but our install has the full explaination of Modbiblio.
20:56 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: bug fix sent for translatability
20:58 wizzyrea     please look this over
20:58 wizzyrea     http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/index.php/Version_Control_Using_Git#Browse_Git
20:58 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: C4/Languages.pm is a real nightmare.
21:00 wizzyrea     those links to the git repos are going to be wrong I think
21:02 genji        gmcharlt: so.... how do i find out what version of koha i have? 094 doesn't match..... whens the last time that modbiblio had "Exported' under it?
21:03 gmcharlt     genji: what does kohaversion.pl say?
21:04 genji        094
21:05 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: But will try and send folllowup on previous patch for C4/Languages.pm
21:05 genji        does every git commit, change kohaversion.pl?
21:05 russ         gmcharlt: did you get my email? i kept getting bounces when trying to send to your work address
21:06 chris_n      a C4 module that's a nightmare? you don't say. ;-)
21:06 * wizzyrea   explodes into a million pieces
21:06 wizzyrea     did somebody say C4?
21:08 hdl_laptop   chris_n: hehe
21:08 gmcharlt     russ: no
21:08 gmcharlt     are you using gmc@esilibrary.com ?
21:09 russ         i'll try that now
21:13 gmcharlt     russ: I have it now
21:15 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: is systempreferences.pl still in use in 3.2?
21:16 russ         gmcharlt: cheers
21:16 gmcharlt     hdl_laptop: it's not linked to anything, but at the moment it's the only way to add local-use sysprefs
21:16 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: it looks like it has not been deleted.
21:16 gmcharlt     so may need to stick aroudn for that purpose
21:17 hdl_laptop   duplication of tools ----
21:17 gmcharlt     until we have a fix for bug 3756
21:17 munin        04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3756 blocker, P5, ---, pianohacker@gmail.com, ASSIGNED, new sys prefs - no way to add a new local use preference
21:17 genji        gmcharlt: so... why is my 094 modbiblio, different from 094? it seems like its description is from a later version...... maybe copied.. or maybe its a later version?
21:17 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: I agree 3756 is really really serious
21:17 gmcharlt     genji: hard to say, you could have a slightly post-RC1 version
21:18 genji        when did modbiblio start deleting any item fields from incoming records to avoid duplication?
21:19 genji        ah.. another difference.... in GetBiblioitemdata.. a bug  was fixed.,... from " biblio left join biblioitems on biblio.biblionumber =bibioitems.bibioitemnumber' to the correct" biblioitems.biblionumber"
21:22 hdl_laptop   But then, should we release the code with both preference.pl and systempreferences ?
21:22 gmcharlt     hdl_laptop: yes, or perhaps strip out most of systempreference.pl, make it handle *only* local-use sysprefs, and rename it to sysprefs_local.pl or the like
21:23 gmcharlt     kmkale: looks like you fixed your git-send-email problem
21:25 chris_n      maybe we could write a parser module to update the yaml syspref files?
21:26 chris_n      thus allowing local sysprefs to be added
21:26 gmcharlt     chris_n: I'm uncomfortable about adding a feature that writes to the filesystem so late into 3.2
21:27 chris_n      I was thinking more for 3.4
21:32 chris        back
21:33 Nate         gnight #koha
21:35 genji        how do i walk the git, to find out what version of Biblio.pm matches the one i have?
21:40 chris        i bet you have local changes, so no version matches it
21:41 genji        hmm...  i mean.. some parts of Biblio.pm seem like they are from a later version of koha.
21:41 genji        koha 3rc1 has "Exported (core api)..." as the description for modbiblio sub.
21:41 genji        but my supposed koha 3rc1 has the actual description.
21:42 genji        so.. when was the description, added to modbiblio?
21:44 hdl_laptop   gitk could helpyou
21:45 gmcharlt     genji: that change was made between 3.0-rc1 and 3.0.0
21:46 genji        so, its possible that i might have 3 final?
21:47 gmcharlt     check your db revision
21:47 gmcharlt     if it's 3.00.00.107, you likely have 3.0.0 final
21:47 genji        094 it says in kohaversion.pl
21:48 gmcharlt     sounds like it's in some state between rc1 and final, then
21:48 genji        do i really need to find out exactly what the last commit was?
21:50 gmcharlt     not necessarily, but it would help in order to figure exactly which files you had customized
21:50 gmcharlt     unless you have a logbook or something you can refer to
21:53 genji        okay... hmm..
21:53 genji        when was 3rc1 released?
21:53 genji        or gitmarked?
22:02 larsw        could someone give me the url to the log of the meeting earlier?
22:03 joetho       http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/today
22:03 larsw        thanks
22:06 chris        is someone doing minutes?
