22:06 chris        is someone doing minutes?
22:03 larsw        thanks
22:03 joetho       http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/today
22:02 larsw        could someone give me the url to the log of the meeting earlier?
21:53 genji        or gitmarked?
21:53 genji        when was 3rc1 released?
21:53 genji        okay... hmm..
21:50 gmcharlt     unless you have a logbook or something you can refer to
21:50 gmcharlt     not necessarily, but it would help in order to figure exactly which files you had customized
21:48 genji        do i really need to find out exactly what the last commit was?
21:48 gmcharlt     sounds like it's in some state between rc1 and final, then
21:47 genji        094 it says in kohaversion.pl
21:47 gmcharlt     if it's 3.00.00.107, you likely have 3.0.0 final
21:47 gmcharlt     check your db revision
21:46 genji        so, its possible that i might have 3 final?
21:45 gmcharlt     genji: that change was made between 3.0-rc1 and 3.0.0
21:44 hdl_laptop   gitk could helpyou
21:42 genji        so.. when was the description, added to modbiblio?
21:41 genji        but my supposed koha 3rc1 has the actual description.
21:41 genji        koha 3rc1 has "Exported (core api)..." as the description for modbiblio sub.
21:41 genji        hmm...  i mean.. some parts of Biblio.pm seem like they are from a later version of koha.
21:40 chris        i bet you have local changes, so no version matches it
21:35 genji        how do i walk the git, to find out what version of Biblio.pm matches the one i have?
21:33 Nate         gnight #koha
21:32 chris        back
21:27 chris_n      I was thinking more for 3.4
21:26 gmcharlt     chris_n: I'm uncomfortable about adding a feature that writes to the filesystem so late into 3.2
21:26 chris_n      thus allowing local sysprefs to be added
21:25 chris_n      maybe we could write a parser module to update the yaml syspref files?
21:23 gmcharlt     kmkale: looks like you fixed your git-send-email problem
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
21:22 hdl_laptop   But then, should we release the code with both preference.pl and systempreferences ?
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"
21:18 genji        when did modbiblio start deleting any item fields from incoming records to avoid duplication?
21:17 gmcharlt     genji: hard to say, you could have a slightly post-RC1 version
21:17 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: I agree 3756 is really really serious
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 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 gmcharlt     until we have a fix for bug 3756
21:17 hdl_laptop   duplication of tools ----
21:16 gmcharlt     so may need to stick aroudn for that purpose
21:16 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: it looks like it has not been deleted.
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 russ         gmcharlt: cheers
21:15 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: is systempreferences.pl still in use in 3.2?
21:13 gmcharlt     russ: I have it now
21:09 russ         i'll try that now
21:08 gmcharlt     are you using gmc@esilibrary.com ?
21:08 gmcharlt     russ: no
21:08 hdl_laptop   chris_n: hehe
21:06 wizzyrea     did somebody say C4?
21:06 * wizzyrea   explodes into a million pieces
21:06 chris_n      a C4 module that's a nightmare? you don't say. ;-)
21:05 russ         gmcharlt: did you get my email? i kept getting bounces when trying to send to your work address
21:05 genji        does every git commit, change kohaversion.pl?
21:05 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: But will try and send folllowup on previous patch for C4/Languages.pm
21:04 genji        094
21:03 gmcharlt     genji: what does kohaversion.pl say?
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?
21:00 wizzyrea     those links to the git repos are going to be wrong I think
20:58 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: C4/Languages.pm is a real nightmare.
20:58 wizzyrea     http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/index.php/Version_Control_Using_Git#Browse_Git
20:58 wizzyrea     please look this over
20:56 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: bug fix sent for translatability
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.
20:49 gmcharlt     yep
20:48 genji        ah.... this isn't good... 3rc1 is 3.00 00 094?
20:48 gmcharlt     how extensive are your customizations?
20:48 gmcharlt     particularly the 'for developers sectoin'
20:47 gmcharlt     ok - first step will be a perusal of http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:git_usage
20:47 genji        yea.. basically..  read only functionality.
20:47 genji        and to log.
20:46 genji        to show..
20:46 genji        only to fetch
20:46 gmcharlt     genji: ah, have you used git at all?
20:39 genji        okay.... im not even sure how to commit.
20:39 gmcharlt     once you've got that situation, you can then try rebasing against the current 3.0.x head
20:38 gmcharlt     and start organizing your local customizations into a set of commits on the cline
20:38 gmcharlt     do a git diff
20:38 gmcharlt     copy your production version over
20:38 gmcharlt     genji: I had stepped out; anyway, you can do is to make a new git clone of 3rc1
20:38 ebegin       :) np
20:37 gmcharlt     ebegin: sorry, didn't mean to ping you
20:37 genji        gmcharlt: did you see my response?
20:37 ebegin       gmcharlt, yes^
20:37 gmcharlt     genji: pong
20:37 gmcharlt     ack, sorry
20:37 gmcharlt     ebegin: pong
20:27 genji        gmcharlt: hello?
20:26 wizzyrea     it's one of my pets. :P
20:26 wizzyrea     http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/index.php/Bug_Reporting_Guidelines
20:22 genji        gmcharlt: ?
20:21 genji        hm... i could of sat in bed with my wifi pda... but I wouldn't of been able to respond.
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.
20:19 schuster     jransom - wireless laptop sitting in bed...  good idea... ;)
20:19 genji        whats the first patch since 3rc1? how can i test that indeed, i have 3rc1 and not a later release?
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.
20:18 jransom      cya
20:18 * chilts     waves goodbye for now
20:18 chilts       good plan
20:17 jransom      will go and stand in a patch of sunlight in the carpark outside I think
20:17 chilts       it's warming up now though :)
20:17 chilts       :(
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 :)
20:16 * chris      heads off
20:16 cait         good night all
20:16 gmcharlt     genji: are you starting from a git clone?
20:16 cait         time to sleep here :)
20:16 genji        So... how do i get my mods into my own 3rc1, so i can rebase?
20:15 richard      heh
20:15 chilts       heh
20:15 chris        yep time to get up and go to work
20:15 * chilts     gets up too
20:15 gmcharlt     genji: yep
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?
20:14 * robin-home gets out of bed to hopefully get that migration script completed today (IRC meetings are handy :)
20:14 cm           a tardis would be cooler.  :)  but i'd take either.
20:14 chris        heh
20:14 owen         I'd sleep until morning and turn it back for another night's sleep
20:13 owen         Man, I wish
20:13 cm           owen has a Time-Turner?  ;)
20:13 chris        but 3.0.5 is the latest stable
20:12 chris        maybe hold off for 3.2 release?
20:12 * wizzyrea   wonders what kind of quantum parallel universe Owen lives in
20:12 brendan      owen++
20:12 brendan      owen+
20:12 chilts       heh
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 * owen       has contributed at least 1 billion hours just today
20:11 joetho       And it represents billions of hours of work for which all of us are grateful.,
20:11 chris        great work all
20:11 chris        619 committs since alpha1
20:11 chris        http://git.koha-community.org/stats/koha-master/tags.html
20:11 joetho       3.2 release is a pretty significant step forward.
20:11 owen         Thanks jransom
20:11 vokalr       Ciao!
20:11 jransom      Great working with everyone - thanks all :)
20:10 chris        that excuse only stretches so far
20:10 chilts       looks nice
20:10 schuster     Thanks all - look forward to the meeting tomorrow.  Thanks for all the hard work on the 3.2(alpha2)
20:10 jransom      its probably 2 min phone call
20:10 chilts       links on front page -> http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
20:10 chris        (the nz one that is)
20:10 chris        schuster: 19 days now .. 20 min phone call to get it pulled
20:10 joetho       Schuster: I agree. Talk about "buying a pig in a poke"
20:10 jransom      of course - but PTFS are not stupid.
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...
20:09 vokalr       I don't think it would be a good business decision on their part
20:09 gmcharlt     in any event, I declare this meeting closed
20:09 joetho       The vendor in question *may* be pondering these issues at this very moment.
20:09 * wizzyrea   likes the name we have
20:09 gmcharlt     vickiteal: agreed - no reason to invite trouble
20:09 chris        yeah, renaming is off the table barring circumstances changing imho
20:09 vickiteal    I think talk of a suit is premature as well, my opinion.
20:09 * chris_n    must go vote (if only to secure whining rights)
20:09 chris_n      at no charge
20:08 chris_n      joetho: there are organization who provide legal counsel to foss projects for things like that as well
20:08 joetho       And just how deep are their pockets for a suit like that?
20:08 jransom      but there is no win for them long term so why would they?
20:08 jransom      will be up to PTFS to make that happen
20:08 chris        and we get advice that we would lose the case
20:08 jransom      I agree absoluitely.
20:08 vokalr       Agree
20:08 vickiteal    My opinion, renaming is very premature.
20:07 chris        trademark action is taken against us libraries or us support companies
20:07 joetho       ok, define "forced to"
20:07 chris        as an nzer of maori descent i find the propsect quite appalling
20:07 jransom      me neither
20:07 * magnus     waves "good night" to the wonderful Koha-crowd
20:07 chris        i wouldnt support renaming unless forced to
20:07 gmcharlt     but development of mainstream Koha will go on regardless
20:07 joetho       +1
20:07 chris_n      +1
20:06 gmcharlt     I for one encourage release of it
20:06 joetho       Renaming seems drastic, to me, but it would certainly resolve  a few issues
20:06 gmcharlt     any issues concerning LLEK are in the hands of PTFS and its customers at this point
20:06 GeorgeSue    thanks guys for all your inport:)
20:06 vickiteal    OK. Thanks.
20:06 chris        not by us, the same mechanisms that have served everyone else for 11 years are all still there
20:06 chilts       hmm, I wonder if the front page is ok for that domain list?
20:06 gmcharlt     vickiteal: entirely separate
20:06 vickiteal    Also, the koha.org issue is separate from development, right?
20:06 chris        vickiteal: it was never closed
20:06 joetho       absolutely
20:06 chris        i think ptfs are smart enough that they will do the right thing
20:05 gmcharlt     vickiteal: yes
20:05 vickiteal    But, the door is open for further negotiation if both PTFS and the community agrees, right?
20:05 gmcharlt     ok, so noted
20:05 joetho       +1
20:05 Colin        +1
20:05 schuster     +1 - hope springs eternal.
20:05 joetho       Here's hoping for good news.
20:05 Nate         +1
20:05 chris        the rest can be discussed in the regular meetings
20:05 collum       +1
20:05 vokalr       +1
20:05 cait         +1
20:05 brendan      +1
20:05 rhcl         +1
20:05 owen         +1
20:05 jransom      +1
20:05 hdl_laptop   +1
20:05 richard      +1
20:05 jransom      if anything changes we can all a meeting
20:05 magnus_away  +1
20:05 chris_n      +1
20:05 gmcharlt     or leave it until circumstances change?
20:04 chris_n      seems not
20:04 chris        i dont think so
20:04 gmcharlt     is there a current need to schedule another meeting?
20:04 gmcharlt     ok, so to bring this meeting to a close
20:04 chilts       it's kinda self-recursion :)
20:03 * chilts     goes in search of the wiki ... lol!
20:03 wizzyrea     very glad you're on our team larsw :)
20:03 wizzyrea     very good idea
20:03 chilts       larsw: good idea :)
20:03 chilts       heh
20:03 larsw        chilts, add that to the wiki? someone can then add exlanations for the purpose of each domain
20:03 chris        ping me
20:03 chris        ditto for shell access to the bugzilla server
20:03 wizzyrea     haven't even started it
20:03 wizzyrea     no, it's not ready
20:03 chilts       is that a 'use now' one?
20:03 * chilts     adds
20:03 wizzyrea     contribs, yea
20:02 chris        is the other one
20:02 chris        contrib
20:02 chris        that does help
20:02 chris        yes
20:02 * chilts     hopes that helps
20:02 gmcharlt     reminder: ping me if you need shell access to the wiki server
20:02 chilts       chris: is this the current state of usage? http://paste.dollyfish.net.nz/db9485
20:02 wizzyrea     and reduce duplication of effort >.>
20:02 chris_n      wizzyrea++
20:01 wizzyrea     to help maintain continuity between the website and the wiki
20:01 schuster     Always wanting structure...
20:01 chris_n      it does seem to naturally fall to nengard's realm :)
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 schuster     She must be a librarian that nengard...
20:01 wizzyrea     I will help out with that, nengard
20:01 brendan      nengard++
20:01 chris_n      owen: aka working on setting up wiki structure
20:01 * wizzyrea   doesn't know the details but it was quite an involved deal
20:01 gmcharlt     nengard++
20:00 nengard      but I'll gladly add wiki editor to my doc manager duties
20:00 nengard      larsw I don't have one yet
20:00 wizzyrea     well and there was that whole namespace discussion from a while back
20:00 nengard      I don't mind putting structure to the wiki
20:00 owen         chris_n: What does that mean?
20:00 gmcharlt     afaik
20:00 larsw        nengard, do you have an outline for the structure?
20:00 gmcharlt     thd had volunteered, but doesn't have much time at the moment
20:00 * chris_n    thinks thd was doing wiki engineering
20:00 gmcharlt     larsw: well, absent somebody else volunteering to be the wiki editor, I'd say just go for it
20:00 nengard      personally
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?
19:59 nengard      larsw i'd love to see some structure
19:59 chris        what richard said
19:59 larsw        is there a grand plan for the new wiki content,or should we just add things ad hoc?
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 richard      i think it's just there and ready to put stuff into
19:59 wizzyrea     or very little
19:59 nengard      schuster nothing there yet
19:59 wizzyrea     nope, nothing in it yet
19:59 schuster     Is there anything in the new wiki?  looks pretty blank?
19:59 chris        ill do a post about bugs when i get to work
19:59 wizzyrea     shame to waste it ;)
19:58 robin-home   Sounds like a good use of the new wiki
19:58 wizzyrea     because it's mighty fine git documentation
19:58 wizzyrea     update the git documentation
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 nengard      ah
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 chris        yeah if you dont know how to change remotes
19:57 nengard      gmcharlt said we need instructions for git
19:57 chris        git start now
19:57 chris        i thnk wiki start now
19:57 vickiteal    Thanks Chris.
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
19:56 chris        http://koha-community.org/category/events/feed/  <-- rss feed for events
19:56 vickiteal    Thanks. I'll look around.
19:55 nengard      there is an RSS feed and a category page as well
19:55 wizzyrea     you can also click on Events under categories
19:55 wizzyrea     not necessarily
19:55 vickiteal    I'm gonna have to think about what I want! Right now, you click on a date, right?
19:55 wizzyrea     < is happy to do (almost) whatever anybody wants
19:55 chris        like that vickiteal ?
19:54 chris        http://koha-community.org/category/events/
19:54 chris        they all show in the events category
19:54 nengard      why do we need more than one place?e
19:54 gmcharlt     vickiteal: there could be - what kind of place do you have in mind?
19:54 vickiteal    Is there going to be a place to list events other than the calendar?
19:54 chris        not directed at anyone in particular
19:53 chris        that was a general statement
19:53 wizzyrea     ^^
19:53 chris        *nod*
19:53 schuster     k - and several of us PTFS customers are doing what we can as you know.
19:53 wizzyrea     so yea, we probably do need to update docs re: sponsoring
19:53 chris        so dont put real stuff there yet
19:53 chris        beware any bugs you put there, i will trash in the migraton
19:52 chris        try out the sponsorship stuff
19:52 chris        cool :)
19:52 wizzyrea     was thinking of you when I saw it schuster
19:52 schuster     I just registered..
19:52 * reed       heads to the train
19:52 wizzyrea     ^^
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 genji        who gets koha-community.org emails?
19:52 chris_n      chilts: mail.koha-community.org perhaps
19:52 chris        and i think they know what it is :)
19:52 chris        theres plenty ptfs customers can do
19:51 schuster     Let me know if there is something I can help you with chris.
19:51 chris        hehe
19:51 wizzyrea     (chris yelling at you)
19:51 wizzyrea     (you don't want that)
19:51 hdl_laptop   +1
19:51 chilts       so I know more ;)
19:51 * chris_n    sees chris's list getting big :)
19:51 * chilts     is collecting all the subdomains mentioned -> http://paste.dollyfish.net.nz/498acf
19:50 chris        and i yell at them
19:50 gmcharlt     joetho: the old email addresses will need to be used for the migration, but can be changed afterwards
19:50 chris        joetho: if they do, their bugs get assigned to me
19:50 cait         chris: ah, ok
19:50 gmcharlt     +1
19:50 chris        so please dont let that happen
19:50 joetho       will there be a problem with developers registering with a different email address than they used for old bugs?
19:50 Nate         +1
19:50 chris        cait: they get assigned to me
19:50 sekjal       +1
19:50 nengard      +1   (but I'd wait until all the content is moved - and we're supposed to start using it)
19:50 chris        i can do an announcement on the website and the mailing lists (koha + devel)
19:50 vokalr       +1
19:50 cait         what happens with bugs people do not reregister for?
19:50 vokalr       It just took me 30 seconds to register.
19:50 owen         +1
19:50 chris_n      +1
19:50 wizzyrea     +1
19:50 chris        can do, people agree that is a good idea?
19:50 wizzyrea     :)
19:49 larsw        chris, can you post an announcement to get people to register?
19:49 wizzyrea     so go do it... like, now.
19:49 hdl_laptop   gmcharlt: yes We can do that.
19:49 chris        i can migrate bugs any time after users are registered (using the same email address as on koha.org)
19:49 genji        ah... a replacement for domain hosted horde...
19:48 wizzyrea     yea
19:48 schuster     Do you have a timeframe for bugs.koha-community.org?  Do we all have to reregister or???
19:48 hdl_laptop   wizzyrea: for koha.org services ?
19:48 wizzyrea     genji: in terms of email hosting? up to 50 accounts @ 7GB+ each
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 chris_n      genji: to provide some email@koha-community.org for elected koha community positions
19:48 chris_n      +1
19:48 brendan      +1
19:48 wizzyrea     we should set a cutoff date
19:48 genji        what would google apps give us?
19:47 brendan      s/of/or
19:47 * sekjal     is currently writing up a bug report on bugs.koha.org
19:47 brendan      of mailing lists
19:47 brendan      like wiki or git
19:47 wizzyrea     oh, that, nm >.>
19:47 brendan      not the website but the different sub domains
19:47 chris        the website?
19:47 wizzyrea     a couple of months ago :P
19:47 brendan      so when do we stop updating and posting to koha.org ?
19:47 reed         wizzyrea, yeah, I guess that is still correct and complete
19:47 chris_n      shall I pursue setting up a google apps account for koha-community.org?
19:46 wizzyrea     like this: http://koha-community.org/home/
19:46 gmcharlt     schuster: pointers will undoubted get updated as things get moved/copied over
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 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?
19:45 wizzyrea     all are still up
19:45 fredericd    reversly, is there any service still on koha.org domain? wiki?
19:45 wizzyrea     and putzing about the webmaster tools
19:45 * wizzyrea   has been watching fairly carefully the google analytics for k-c.org
19:45 wizzyrea     yes, they have all gotten some much needed love
19:45 larsw        link to the new site whenever mentioning Koha
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 :)
19:44 brendan      gmcharlt++ #excellent point many of these services will be better with the upgrades to software
19:44 gmcharlt     Nate: usage is the best promotion
19:44 wizzyrea     nate: not formally
19:44 hdl_laptop   good
19:44 Nate         ie having funds set aside for marketing etc..
19:44 chris        yep, fredericd has been working on that hdl_laptop
19:44 Nate         Have we spoken at all about the promotion of the new site?
19:44 hdl_laptop   up and running to.
19:44 chris_n      yup
19:44 wizzyrea     we could set up a google apps domain for that... it'd be free
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 chris        to update and create bugs
19:43 chris        and accepts formated email
19:43 jransom      (the new website is just great - kudos to all involved)
19:43 chris        yeah bugs is a much newer versio
19:43 hdl_laptop   where is translate.koha-community.org ?
19:43 nengard      like the bugs site no longer has the ugly bug on it :) hehe
19:43 chris_n      it might be good to provide some email@koha-community.org for elected koha community positions
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
19:42 brendan      Brendan Gallagher, ByWater Solutions (late to the show - but I've caught up)
19:42 chris        yep
19:42 gmcharlt     to bring this meeting round again - I think we're getting situated regarding koha-community.org services
19:42 chris        jransom: larsw just answered that :-)
19:42 jransom      even 1 goes bad it doesn't matter
19:42 Nate         I will speak with Brendan about ByWater being of assistance if needed
19:42 jransom      we could invite vendors to host mirrors
19:42 gmcharlt     larsw: makes sense
19:41 fredericd    Frédéric Demians, Tamil -- good evening, or so
19:41 larsw        mirroring is good, but introduces complexity: start with one, then add mirrors if necessary?
19:41 chris        at lesat international transit is
19:41 jransom      Hi biglego, we are in a meeting. would you like to identify yourself
19:41 chris        bandwidth is stupid expensive in nz
19:41 joetho       Invite support vendors to provide mirrors?
19:40 chilts       heh
19:40 chris        not sure, ptfs could tell us :-)
19:40 larsw        any idea of the bandwidth required for download.k-c.org?
19:39 vokalr       Yay!
19:39 genji        Sweet!
19:39 chris        yes
19:39 genji        as a true debian repository i can apt-get on?
19:39 chris        ah yes debian.koha-community.org is being set up
19:38 gmcharlt     hdl_laptop: hosting is ready for the debina packages
19:38 hdl_laptop   could be with debain packages
19:38 chris        wizzyrea: talk after the meeting :)
19:38 chris        larsw: yes
19:38 larsw        what's download.koha-community.org for? the release tarballs?
19:38 chris        wizzyrea: i can do dns for ya
19:37 schuster     David Schuster  - Plano ISD
19:37 gmcharlt     and perhaps mirrors on a couple conteintents
19:37 gmcharlt     I think we'll just need a relatively inexpensive FTP host
19:37 richard      i'll check with si to see what he thinks about that
19:36 * wizzyrea   hides
19:36 chris_n      think bandwidth
19:36 chris        we need a volunteer for download.koha-community.org
19:36 wizzyrea     as a sub site of k-c
19:36 wizzyrea     if I can get a DNS name for it
19:36 wizzyrea     we could probably do contribs on KLOW
19:36 chris        lists.koha-community.org points to a new biblibre host
19:35 gmcharlt     sekjal: contribs just needs a host, but is small
19:35 nengard      and by done chris means in it's new home - but not completely written yet :) hehe
19:35 gmcharlt     since we'll need to get user accounts set up
19:35 sekjal       contribs?
19:35 chris        the bugs are all backed up
19:35 wizzyrea     in english AND french ;)
19:35 jransom      so what is left to transfer?
19:35 wizzyrea     http://koha-community.org/documentation/
19:35 chris        jransom: the new manual was done ages ago
19:35 gmcharlt     but will take a bit more organization to migrate
19:35 nengard      manual has been up for a while
19:35 jransom      the new manual?
19:35 gmcharlt     no, bugs are not yet migrated
19:35 chris        i have done test migration
19:35 reed         mailing list pages
19:35 owen         Oh bugs are migrated too?
19:35 wizzyrea     well
19:35 gmcharlt     transition to that will just need instructions
19:35 jransom      woo hoo
19:34 nengard      wiki.koha-community.org is up :)
19:34 gmcharlt     seems to be stable, and has git statistics
19:34 chris        bugs.koha-community.org is up
19:34 gmcharlt     git.koha-community.org is up and running
19:34 wizzyrea     k-c.org is up... what about the wiki/bugs/git?
19:34 wizzyrea     yea, status of other web presences?
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 jransom      there are things which are bottom lines
19:33 jransom      there are things we can talk about - and others we can't
19:33 jransom      we have been very honest with PTFS - not wasting their time.
19:33 wizzyrea     < just wants to help make a great ILS
19:33 jransom      I agree
19:33 sekjal       ++
19:33 vokalr       ++
19:33 richard      ++
19:33 larsw        ++
19:33 nengard      ++
19:33 chris_n      ++
19:33 hdl_laptop   ++
19:33 wizzyrea     ++
19:33 chris        ++
19:33 gmcharlt     but in the meantime, I think focus should be on 3.2, then 3.4
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 rhcl         really
19:33 jransom      i can't see what PTFS have to gain by alienating the entire koha world
19:32 jransom      too early i think
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      we invited PTFS to try and agree on the things we could agree with via email
19:32 joetho       A name change seems drastic.
19:32 vokalr       kaha! Yes!
19:32 wizzyrea     kaha = strong?
19:32 rhcl         trademark, and kia is not a very good car either
19:32 chris_n      lol
19:31 rhcl         kia is a korean kar. maybe not so good?
19:31 jransom      kia kaha = be strong
19:31 jransom      I like it!
19:31 jransom      lol
19:31 sekjal       from the committee's point of view, what is required from PTFS to make a dialogue happen?
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 robin-home   Remaining to "kia kaha" wouldn't be the end of the world:)
19:31 * chris_n    hoped they might show up at this meeting
19:31 vickiteal    You have already established koha-community.org as a successful web site.
19:31 jransom      pTFS are absolutely welcome to comunicate with the community as every other vendor does
19:31 vickiteal    I agree, isn't the code the important thing.
19:30 larsw        joetho, GPL provides no protections related to trademarks
19:30 gmcharlt     sekjal: at this point, yes, but we remain open to a discussion with PTFS
19:30 joetho       I like it.
19:30 joetho       how about "Joe-ha"?
19:30 chris        sekjal: yes, there has been no further communicaton
19:30 vokalr       The code is still open
19:30 sekjal       now that the conference call is no longer happening, is communication between PTFS and the Committee staled?
19:30 jransom      thats my thinking
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 wizzyrea     regardless of the name?
19:30 wizzyrea     the ultimate goal is to make great software, right?
19:30 richard      i think so
19:30 vokalr       So it's bau.
19:30 jransom      ultimately we may which will be sad but not the end of the world
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
19:29 owen         chris: I just want to make sure we're doing what we can on the remaining open fronts, like the TM.
19:29 chris        and just continue to move on with koha-community.org
19:29 jransom      (did you like that spelling :)
19:29 chris_n      due to long-standing acceptance of usage by the trademark holder
19:29 vokalr       And when they try to enforce it, does that mean we just have to change the name?
19:29 chris        the way i see it, we need to stop thinking talking about ptfs/lek
19:29 jransom      court of public opinion cricifys them
19:28 chris_n      and even then it might be doubtful that enforcement on the koha project would be successful
19:28 chris        vokalr: nothing unless they try to enforce it
19:28 chris_n      vokalr: not much
19:28 * genji      is half asleep..
19:28 jransom      we have used it for 10 years remember
19:28 genji        oh wait... in nz. sorry.
19:28 vokalr       And what does that do to us?
19:28 jransom      We have filed a counter application in NZ for Koha
19:28 chris        vokalr: PTFS have US trademark already
19:27 vokalr       Yes, that's what I'm wondering: what happens to us if they get a trademark?
19:27 genji        joetho: HLT already is.
19:27 jransom      the world will not stop turning
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 joetho       that would certainly force the issue
19:27 chris        i agree, i think the ball is in ptfs' court
19:27 joetho       what about some other organization ALSO applying for the Koha tm in NZ ?
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
19:26 chris_n      SFLC thought the US trademark would not be succesfully challenged
19:26 genji        .. before katipo signed... sorry..
19:26 rhcl         should that be restarted?
19:26 rhcl         thd was working with some OS people--and then that was put on hold
19:26 joetho       I was thinking of the US trademark issue this morning. Wondered how that relates to the general Koha license
19:26 jransom      advice was a challenge would fail
19:26 genji        when liblime brought Koha division... was there any sign  that this could happen, before katipo?
19:26 jransom      and we will never know
19:26 jransom      so has PTFS 'purchased' that application or not
19:25 chris_n      owen: SFLC was consulted on that
19:25 rhcl         agree with joetho
19:25 chris        yep
19:25 gmcharlt     but by Metavore prior to the assumption of LibLime by PTFS
19:25 jransom      I had an email from someone - its about $2kUSD to cghallenge
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 chris        thats the point
19:25 chris        jransom: it cant be
19:25 * gmcharlt   points out that the NZ trademark application was not made by PTFS
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 owen         Anyone consider the possibility of challenging the trademark in the US as well?
19:25 joetho       I would interpret the NZ trademark application as a very ominous sign of PTFS plans.
19:24 chris        s
19:24 chris        yeah going after a small library trust in nz factor too .. it wont be good pres
19:24 jransom      Sharon thought it would be a very interesting story for Wired or some Tech magazine
19:24 genji        trademark challenges are a popular thing to appear in the dominion post, especially david vs goliath, indigenous vs overseas use.
19:23 joetho       irc log for today, current within a minute or two:  http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2010-05-04
19:23 chris        though
19:23 chris        it would nice to not have to waste time and money
19:23 jransom      yes it is
19:23 gmcharlt     Nate: that is a standard part of NZ trademark review, as I understand
19:23 Nate         just a thought?
19:23 jransom      we have spoken to the Ministrty of Maori affairs already
19:23 genji        And have us in the papers...
19:23 Nate         so if the Maori were made aware of this application they may be interested in taking action
19:23 chris        joetho: and we will
19:23 jransom      we get to challenge the application
19:22 chilts       oopse, missed the start ... Andrew Chilton, Catalyst IT :)
19:22 chris        joetho: then we have 3 months to object
19:22 Nate         Here in the US, assets held by indegenous (sp) cultures are held very close to those cultures
19:22 chris        joetho: if it is accepted in NZ
19:22 chris_n      and is beside the point as the reasoning was sound
19:22 joetho       agree w owen
19:22 owen         Pointing at who canceled the call isn't helpful IMO
19:22 jransom      Georeg Sue is here now - Chair, HLT
19:22 jransom      my apologies
19:22 chris        yes, the call was cancelled, i think we have been clear with the reasons why
19:22 joetho       I think there is a process to contest trademark applications in the United States- something similar in NZ?
19:21 jransom      sorry - with goeorge on phone
19:21 vickiteal    Sorry Joann!
19:21 chris        -a
19:21 chris        Joann vickiteal
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 vickiteal    I agree on moving forward, but also as Joanna posted, it was the Committee that canceled the call.
19:21 jransom      george: http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2010-05-04
19:21 rhcl         Would somebody from NZ care to comment briefly on the meaning of PTFS's NZ trademark app?
19:21 genji        Well, it seems PTFS doesn't understand that Koha is biggerr than HLT?
19:21 joetho       I wonder if it would help to have a single person attempt communication with the Koha trademark holder?
19:20 nengard      continue adding content to the new official site and keep working on pushing koha 3.2 out
19:20 nengard      I'm with Chris - to move forward we just do - we continue to do what we're doing
19:20 joetho       initiate communication between PTFS CEO and ... _____________ (who?)
19:20 chris        i was only semi joking when i said release alpha2
19:19 gmcharlt     correct, the NDA was not meant as a condition for discussion between PTFS and the Koha subcommitee collecitvely
19:19 joetho       but - moving forward - how to deal with this?
19:19 chris        in discussions going back months
19:19 chris        that was with individual people
19:19 chris        i think it needs to be stated the NDA was prior to the conference call
19:19 vokalr       +!
19:19 genji        NDA, just so one could talk?
19:18 joetho       The NDA was ridiculous.
19:18 wizzyrea     +1, even
19:18 genji        ...
19:18 wizzyrea     +!
19:18 nengard      +1
19:18 chris_n      +1
19:18 chris        :)
19:18 owen         I appreciate all who refused to sign an NDA just they could talk to PTFS
19:18 chris        oh wait, we just did
19:18 joetho       It seemed that way to me too, as an outsider looking in.
19:18 chris        release alpha2
19:18 rhcl         so what, if anything, does the community need to do at this point?
19:17 jransom      I increasingly felt that it would be counter productive
19:17 genji        Hi, Im Waylon Robertson, 33rd committer to Koha, currently developer for mandumah.com, an arabic digital archive library.
19:17 owen         PTFS failed to agree to terms for a call which would maintain openness, as I understand it
19:17 joetho       However, it seemed doomed from the start.
19:17 chris        for the record the nz tm application still is in place, ie has not been withdrawn .. so nothing has changed
19:16 joetho       The failed conference call was unfortunate.
19:16 * owen       agrees
19:16 jransom      ok - well I guess thats the report from the cubcom done
19:16 nengard      both were very clear
19:16 nengard      sounds to me the posts in question answer both the 1st & 2nd agenda items
19:16 owen         No questions for jransom?
19:15 genji        Thanks.
19:15 jransom      http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2010-05-04 for what you've missed
19:15 genji        wheres the log?
19:15 chris        13 mins ago
19:15 genji        uh... drat.... when did it start?
19:15 richard      sorry, for being late - richard from katipo
19:14 chris        genji: we are in the community meeting so you might like to intro yourself
19:14 genji        greetings all
19:14 owen         PTFS doesn't speak for itself on IRC
19:13 reed         is there anyone here who can speak for PTFS?
19:13 nengard      http://www.liblime.com/news/liblime-thoughts
19:13 jransom      can someone postthe link to that one here toplease
19:12 jransom      no contact other than Kelly's post which I fear was very poorly judged
19:11 jransom      as I'm the entire committee is - we acted together throughout, agreeing on words and courses of action
19:11 DRULM        Any progress, or still the same?
19:11 jransom      I'm happy to answer any questions people have

19:03 gmcharlt     Welcomes and introductions.
19:03 gmcharlt       1.
19:03 gmcharlt     current agenda is
19:03 gmcharlt     page for meeting is http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:events:meetings:irc_meetings:meetingnotes10may04
19:03 hdl_laptop   hi
19:03 gmcharlt     so let's get starte
19:03 hdl_laptop   nengard: additem.pl can be used also as a update
19:03 gmcharlt     looks like it's 19:00 UTC+0
19:02 larsw        sekjal, you could also patch debian/control with the new dependency
19:02 chris_n      ie. let it prompt you for your un/passwd
19:02 chris_n      kmkale: the only thing I find suggests just setting sendmail.smtpserver and nothing else
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
19:01 owen         hdl_laptop: Setting a lost status should have the same effect anywhere unless the interface offers alternatives
19:01 sekjal       thanks, gmcharlt.  on it!
19:01 owen         hdl_laptop: It's entirely subjective, sloppy reasoning probably.
19:00 gmcharlt     at least until chris_n finishes his Koha dependency registry
19:00 gmcharlt     sekjal: about.pl, Makefile.PL
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?
18:59 hdl_laptop   owen: why so ?
18:58 larsw        kmkale, http://freerelay.err.no/ may also be useful for relaying purposes
18:58 owen         hdl_laptop: True, when setting the status via the additem interface I don't have the same expectation
18:58 gmcharlt     DRULM: correct
18:58 chris_n      kmkale: not sure on that one
18:58 DRULM        Starting at 3pm I assume.
18:58 DRULM        Hello.
18:57 kmkale       any hints on " Command unknown: 'AUTH' at /usr/lib/git-core/git-send-email line 981, <FIN> line 4. " ??
18:57 kmkale       chris_n : no I can telnet and get the standard smtp greeting
18:57 hdl_laptop   --
18:57 hdl_laptop   coherence problem
18:56 hdl_laptop   Is it also done on additem.pl ?
18:56 chris_n      kmkale: could it be your isp blocking those ports?
18:56 kmkale       any hint?
18:56 hdl_laptop   owen: Is this behaviour  "centralised" in C4/Items.pm ?
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.
18:55 chris_n      hdl_laptop: I was referring to the fact the upload of a barcode file worked at one time and now does not
18:55 gmcharlt     kmkale: sound likely; you'll have to find somebody to relay mail for you
18:54 owen         there is an established outcome based on the behavior of the interface on moredetail.pl
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.
18:53 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
18:52 chris_n      regressions--
18:52 chris        yep, that needs a bug filed
18:51 owen         Yeah :(
18:51 nengard      owen - sounds like a not good bug to me
18:51 nengard      when it first was added
18:51 nengard      months ago
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 chris        nengard: can you remember about when you tested it?
18:46 cait         thx chris_n
18:46 * chris_n    hands cait coffee
18:46 chris        ohhh interesting owen
18:45 nengard      it did work in a previous version because I did it for documentation
18:45 cait         just very tired
18:45 owen         Itemnumber upload works fine
18:45 cait         will try :)
18:45 chris        :(
18:44 cait         not sure I can stay awake till meeting time
18:43 chris        right im out of silly questions
18:42 owen         Yes
18:42 chris        and barcode file is chosen eh?
18:41 owen         Yes
18:41 chris        do you have radio buttons to choose the type of file?
18:40 chris        ahh actually
18:40 chris        the code does look like it expects one barcode per line
18:39 owen         No, same results
18:38 * owen       has been tweaking the template
18:38 owen         Let me test in an unmodified branch before I go crying wolf.
18:37 owen         Yes
18:37 chris        if you just type in the box, one barcode per line .. it does though?
18:36 owen         Hi chris. Neither one is working for me
18:36 chris        one barcode per line
18:35 owen         CSV?
18:35 owen         One barcode per line?
18:35 owen         What format is expected?
18:35 owen         I have a question about uploading a barcode file to batch item mod
18:27 owen         nm, found it:  noissuescharge
18:26 owen         What setting blocks the librarian from checking out to a patron with XX amount in fines?
18:25 nengard      no prob - just making sure I'm not missing it
18:25 gmcharlt     nengard: not yet, it's on my list
18:25 nengard      gmcharlt do you know if the template for the patron privacy setting has been pushed yet?
17:48 vickiteal    Hey folks. I have another meeting prior to the community handoff meeting. I hope to be back, but may be late.
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)
17:36 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
17:36 kmkale       gmcharlt: I have attached it to the bug report for bug 4440
17:33 zico         but, didnot find anything
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         chris_n: can u please bring me any link regarding this pdf issue? i searched with "pdf + bangla language" in mailing archive
17:32 gmcharlt     kmkale: hasn't shown up; I'll ping you if it does, but I suspect that it got hung up somehwere
17:25 kmkale       gmcharlt: please and thanks..
17:25 gmcharlt     kmkale: ok, I"ll let you know if I get it
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, try installing mailutils and do the mailx
17:24 kmkale       zico: correct
17:24 zico         kbarcode?? as far as i can understand.. this is third party software from kde.. right?
17:23 kmkale       gmcharlt: both client and MTA ques empty with total requests zero
17:23 chris_n      zico: search the list archives
17:22 kmkale       k
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 gmcharlt     tells you
17:22 gmcharlt     sudo mailq
17:22 gmcharlt     kmkale: in that case, see what
17:22 kmkale       gmcharlt: I have sendmail running on localhost
17:22 chris_n      zico: kmkale says kbarcode will do the trick
17:21 chris_n      atz and I had some conversation on this awhile back on the list and the issues were presented there
17:21 zico         so.. it is very necessary for us
17:21 zico         i mean.. we have 10,000 Bangla books in our library, many of them are really rare!
17:21 zico         chris_n kmkale: is there any option to handle this?
17:21 chris_n      both to some extent, but the standard is the more costly problem
17:20 kmkale       chris_n: i remember reading its a problem of some perl module Koha uses so its really deeper than Koha. correct?
17:19 kmkale       Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>
17:19 kmkale       * mailutils
17:19 kmkale       * heirloom-mailx
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       The program 'mailx' can be found in the following packages:
17:19 kmkale       gmcharlt:
17:19 cait         nengard: pull is no problem, I already figured out how to do that :)
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         we dont explain configuration and its a bit special because its for ourl ibraries that use our union catalog for cataloging, not koha
17:18 cait         it still needs a ton of work and updates
17:18 cait         http://wiki.bsz-bw.de/doku.php?id=l-team:koha:koha-handbuch:start
17:18 kmkale       k
17:18 gmcharlt     where README is any text file that is OK for me to see
17:17 gmcharlt     cat README |mailx -s "test message" gmcharlt@gmail.com
17:17 gmcharlt     try the following
17:17 gmcharlt     kmkale: first let's try testing your basic mail config
17:17 nengard      cait of course you do have to pull the files down from the repo before starting
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 cait         nengard: thx -will remember you :) never pushed to a git repo
17:16 cait         but we will write some German documentation for serials soon and put it in our wiki
17:16 kmkale       gmcharlt: how do I test my git-email setup?
17:16 nengard      no prob
17:16 nengard      got it!
17:16 cait         spend all free time on distance study and no time at work for translating the manual right now
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
17:15 cait         me too :)
17:15 nengard      I can't type today
17:15 nengard      did
17:15 nengard      that's what i ddi
17:15 nengard      you don't have ot do it again
17:15 gmcharlt     kmkale: no, it hasn't shown up
17:15 nengard      cait actually you just send gmcharlt the same thing you sent hdl
17:15 cait         and I have to go through this ssh key thing again :(
17:14 nengard      :) hehe
17:14 cait         nengard: guilty
17:14 wizzyrea     thanks you
17:14 wizzyrea     YES
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 cait         Ropuch
17:14 nengard      of course only English and French are actively being worked on
17:14 nengard      that would be ideal :)
17:14 * wizzyrea   resolves to get a master script that does all of the manuals
17:13 wizzyrea     ah ok will fetch french too.
17:13 wizzyrea     super nice guy, and I CANNOT remember his name
17:12 wizzyrea     who was it that helped with that script to update? he was polish
17:12 nengard      also - I updated the French so you shouldn't have errors anymore
17:12 nengard      and yes i saw the french!! :)
17:12 nengard      but maybe tomorrow would be good
17:12 nengard      still writing
17:12 nengard      wizzyrea - no need to update now
17:12 wizzyrea     nengard
17:12 wizzyrea     (also, did you see the french manual?)
17:11 wizzyrea     want me to update it?
17:11 wizzyrea     I can run it anytime though
17:11 wizzyrea     sunday, actually
17:11 kmkale       gmcharlt: did the patch mail reach you?
17:10 kmkale       I use Kbarcode
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 nengard      wizzyrea i was wrong before - git is updated now - it wasn't before - anyway -is the script running nightly?
17:08 zico         but, if we go for Bangla lanugage barcode generation... pdf file shows ... "Unable to read"
17:08 kmkale       chris_n: i read in the irc log that my email never reached anybody. true still?
17:08 zico         our koha can generate barcode of english titles
17:08 zico         i am facing problem with barcode generation
17:08 zico         hi
17:08 wizzyrea     owch
17:08 kmkale       had to reinstall grub after upgrade to lucid
17:07 wizzyrea     sure thing :)
17:07 kmkale       whew!!! back up on ubuntu
17:07 CGI480       okay thanks for the info
17:07 kmkale       hi all
17:07 kmkale       hi wizzyrea
17:07 wizzyrea     lots of java, C, Perl, and PHP
17:07 CGI480       :(
17:06 wizzyrea     ILS's in general don't go .NET (that I am aware of)
17:06 cait         dont know one
17:06 wizzyrea     that I know of
17:06 wizzyrea     not FOSS
17:06 CGI480       are you aware of some product htat you can suggest using .Net ?
17:05 wizzyrea     sure thing :)
17:05 CGI480       okay, thanks for the info.
17:05 CGI480       oh
17:05 wizzyrea     yea, Koha doesn't go there.
17:04 wizzyrea     Ah
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     I have bad news, I don't think your patch went through :(
17:03 wizzyrea     hi kmkale
17:02 wizzyrea     lots of info there
17:02 wizzyrea     you may want to check out the official website for Koha at http://www.koha-community.org
17:02 CGI480       who needs a library management system
17:01 CGI480       we are planning to use Koha for a client
17:01 wizzyrea     Perl
17:01 CGI480       what computer language is Koha developed on
17:01 wizzyrea     go ahead :)
17:01 CGI480       have an query
17:00 wizzyrea     hi
16:59 CGI480       Hello
16:54 cait         hi #koha
16:53 schuster     Thank you Ladies.
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?
16:47 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?
16:43 nengard      git updated
16:41 wizzyrea     nengard writes it :D
16:41 * wizzyrea   only puts the manual on the web ;)
16:40 nengard      i can change it
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.
16:26 wizzyrea     yep.
16:26 schuster     I can also see you are anxiously awaiting as I am for the bib merge tool!
16:26 * wizzyrea   points to Sharon and Heather. They are the ones who train on that.
16:25 schuster     OK looking at your cataloging wizzyrea - and that bib oh my... creative cataloging 101... in the series heading.
16:25 chris_n      hehe
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....
16:23 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
16:23 schuster     http://catalog.nexpresslibrary.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=267697 - you already have a series heading in the display...
16:22 owen         If I had a nice mat I could nap under it
16:22 owen         I've got a great hiding-under desk!
16:21 * jwagner    offers owen a desk to hide under
16:21 schuster     ah but we know someone who is....  "oh owennnnn..."
16:21 wizzyrea     ;)
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.
16:20 schuster     But they may already be in the MARC record...
16:20 wizzyrea     (yet)
16:20 wizzyrea     yep, though NEKLS doesn't use authorities
16:19 schuster     It would be way cool if it actually could pull the series authority into the search!
16:19 wizzyrea     i'm certain it could be better
16:18 wizzyrea     so I gave them one ;)
16:18 wizzyrea     they asked me for a link
16:18 wizzyrea     goes there and you type in the series
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     you would paste that code (or something like it) into your opacuserjs
16:17 wizzyrea     schuster: novelist looks just like novelist anywhere else
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     hm.
16:16 owen         http://www.tutorialspoint.com/jquery/traversal-eq.htm
16:16 owen         wizzyrea: You could try the eq() method in that kind of situation
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?
16:14 wizzyrea     http://catalog.nexpresslibrary.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=147824
16:14 wizzyrea     search for this title in:
16:13 wizzyrea     but when I wrote it I didn't know what it was
16:13 owen         wizzyrea: What's an example of this in use?
16:13 wizzyrea     I am SURE there is a better way to pinpoint that location in the list
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>");
16:12 schuster     Cool. - I was thinking of doing something similar with a webservice that finds websites...
16:12 wizzyrea     one sec I'll go grab the code
16:12 wizzyrea     I did it with jquery
16:11 schuster     wizzyrea - I saw you linked on the detail page to novel list - was it easy?  what did you do?
16:09 hdl_laptop   Will be online tonight
16:08 hdl_laptop   let me know
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   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.
16:07 hdl_laptop   Since at the moment, C4::Search is not "aware" of templates.
16:07 hdl_laptop   A problem not really easy to solve is the usage of OPAC stylesheets at intranet for Results.
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.
16:05 wizzyrea     coopetition++
16:04 hdl_laptop   in case XSLTOPACResult (for instance) is on And XSLTWhateveryounameit would not.
16:03 hdl_laptop   + adding a default to present xslt filenames
16:02 hdl_laptop   jwagner: al you would have to add is changing xslt syspref names
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.
16:01 kf           ok, really time to leave, will be back later for the meeting
16:00 hdl_laptop   jwagner you can look at thos two patches
16:00 hdl_laptop   http://markmail.org/message/lhz34uen3ljxd6za
15:59 * chris_n    tries to imagine a thick wizzyrea
15:59 hdl_laptop   http://www.mail-archive.com/koha-patches@lists.koha.org/msg04447.html
15:59 jwagner      wizzyrea, I dunno.  Patch files are always safe :-)
15:58 wizzyrea     ...you can't get it from git? sorry, I'm a bit thick.
15:57 munin        04Bug 3289: normal, P5, ---, wizzyrea@gmail.com, RESOLVED FIXED, News items do not appear on current date, must be backdated.
15:57 wizzyrea     http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3289
15:57 wizzyrea     also this
15:56 jwagner      wizzyrea, please do attach the patch -- we can grab it from there.
15:56 hdl_laptop   And was numbered bug 3042
15:56 hdl_laptop   patch sent on the 05 02
15:56 wizzyrea     regardless.
15:55 wizzyrea     but it's fixed in head
15:55 munin        04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3685 enhancement, P5, ---, gmcharlt@gmail.com, NEW, tools / news = error with date
15:55 wizzyrea     bug 3685, but I didn't attach the patch to it. Will look for it and do that.
15:55 jwagner      hdl_laptop, that bug doesn't seem to be related to XSLT files.
15:55 kf           wizzyrea: we are using mroe than one language in opac :)
15:54 sekjal       mysql claims I have a syntax error.  There is in fact none.  Unfortunately, you can't argue with a machine.
15:54 wizzyrea     1s lemme look
15:54 munin        04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3042 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, oleonard@myacpl.org, RESOLVED DUPLICATE, Add more details to OPAC search results RSS
15:54 hdl_laptop   bug 3042
15:54 jwagner      wizzyrea, bug # for that fix?
15:54 wizzyrea     so you probably just don't have the update that fixes that
15:53 wizzyrea     one I think I fixed, actually
15:53 wizzyrea     yea, that's a bug
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 hdl_laptop   But it just needed to use different system preference
15:53 jwagner      hdl_laptop, really?  I missed that.  Do you have a bug #?
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.
15:52 hdl_laptop   I sent it.
15:52 hdl_laptop   jwagner: I wrote a patch to allow usage of alternative xslts
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 wizzyrea     presumably, if you were using an external XSLT, you would be localizing it to your language anyway
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?
15:50 jwagner      Good one -- hadn't thought of that.  "I don't know" is the answer :-)
15:50 kf           jwagner: translation is another problem
15:50 kf           jwagner: I wonder if this could lead to problems with ie and https
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.
15:48 wizzyrea     I'm for that
15:47 munin        04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4447 enhancement, P5, ---, jwagner@ptfs.com, ASSIGNED, Allow external URL/storage location for XSLT stylesheets
15:47 jwagner      owen and anyone else interested in XSLT, see Bug 4447 -- discussion?
15:46 * owen       wonders if that was ever used... in 2.x maybe?
15:43 wajasu       sure.  I'll file bug.
15:42 owen         wajasu: Could you file a bug report for that?
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.
15:37 wajasu       if thats how thats supposed to work to get credit if my patron make a purchase.
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?
15:34 kf           I can test tomorrow - perhaps remind me. we use amazon in our catalogs
15:32 wajasu       maybe i just need to find something with a review....
15:31 nengard      but they're not working for me right now
15:31 nengard      if you have those preferences turned on
15:31 nengard      oh - sorry - yes more should show
15:31 nengard      wajasu not for me
15:30 wajasu       nengard: i was wondering if anything else beside book covers should show for amazon content.
15:30 kf           owen: ah, i think I figured it out from the patch code
15:30 owen         My patch removed some things from the holdings display which are correctly displayed under the subscriptions tab
15:29 kf           owen: or only if its not used?
15:28 kf           owen: did your patch remove display of 952 serial enumeration?

15:25 owen         gmcharlt: I resubmitted another patch which is now described as Bug 4446. I didn't see it in the patches list archive so I wasn't sure if it made it through
15:25 wizzyrea     (get translations, for example)
15:25 wizzyrea     or is there more I need to do
15:25 wizzyrea     changing the text of system preferences: you only have to change the text in the template file for that section? (enhanced-preferences.pref, for example)

15:17 owen         Bug 2375 reopened and revised patch submitted
15:14 wizzyrea     oh, then yea, maybe your template is different
15:14 schuster     hmmm I'll go back and switch the template back to prog and see if it works then.
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...???
15:13 schuster     Yes.
15:13 owen         Right, you should be able to use both
15:13 wizzyrea     I thought the news went above that
15:13 wizzyrea     ^^
15:12 owen         schuster: By custom do you mean using opacmainuserblock?
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 nengard      owen gmcharlt, i don't remember why i closed it ....
15:11 owen         Maybe it's from furious bug-fixing
15:10 wizzyrea     [off] wonder if chris is running his screen scrape >.>
15:09 wizzyrea     ! mine was slow too!

15:00 owen         Bug 2375 says "fixed," but it doesn't look like my patch was approved. Is the "fixed" status an error?
14:54 kf           *sigh*
14:54 kf           cant type today
14:54 kf           hay anybody tested syspref translation? my colleague told me he got no error message but everything is still English
14:53 kf           :)
14:53 sekjal       owen++
14:53 gmcharlt     :)
14:53 gmcharlt     I will roast anybody who makes a blocker bug complaining about a missing shadow in IE8
14:52 gmcharlt     owen: no string changes, and failure mode in IE is hardly going to raise hackles, so fine
14:51 schuster     all owen patches get my vote - as my boss says "it makes it look pretty..."

14:49 sekjal       ah.  the same patch was applied, but resulted in a different commit.
14:45 sekjal       well, obviously they are not... time to do some git-blaming

14:44 sekjal       ah ha!  error in the SQL syntax!  but only on one machine.... and they are supposedly running the same code...
14:43 wizzyrea     oh well
14:42 wizzyrea     now that I'm in it's ok though
14:42 wizzyrea     man it took like 2 minutes for it to even come up here... everything else is speedy

14:37 wizzyrea     lordy bugs is slow today
14:36 nengard      hehe :) wow - why thanks :) hehe
14:36 wizzyrea     ;)
14:36 wizzyrea     then yes, you would be the diety of choice, in this case
14:36 nengard      the one for search in other
14:36 nengard      yes
14:36 wizzyrea     you made the editable block pref for the opac detail pages, right?
14:35 jwagner      According to wizzyrea, you have....
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 nengard      huh? what? have I been promoted??
14:35 jwagner      wizzyrea, I think the diety for that one is named nengard :-)
14:33 wizzyrea     (which I thank your diety of choice for)
14:33 wizzyrea     though there's a pref for that now I think
14:32 wizzyrea     we also add things to the detail pages: http://screencast.com/t/MjQ5MmE4ZWI
14:31 wizzyrea     :)
14:31 wizzyrea     kf: very smart.
14:31 kf           wizzyrea: I added my issuingrules with sql... ;)
14:31 wizzyrea     rfpl definitely likes their widgets
14:31 wizzyrea     nyack is pretty
14:30 wizzyrea     a lot of it is putting pretty graphics over links
14:29 owen         schuster: http://rfpl.kohalibrary.com/
14:29 owen         schuster: http://nyack.waldo.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 jwagner      schuster, I didn't create this page, but I did some updates on it: http://cate.kohalibrary.com/
14:28 wizzyrea     and put them in the nav bar
14:28 wizzyrea     you could do what we did
14:28 wizzyrea     ah
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.
14:27 wizzyrea     oh you mean the widget vendors
14:27 wizzyrea     ?
14:27 schuster     That is the trick isn't it...  The vendors don't like to play nicely.
14:26 wizzyrea     ckls.kohalibrary.com
14:25 jwagner      schuster, not offhand -- I'd have to dig some up.  It's been a while.
14:25 wizzyrea     that's not the right URL at all
14:25 wizzyrea     sorry
14:25 wizzyrea     er
14:25 wizzyrea     ckls.mykansaslibrary.org uses librarything
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 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
14:24 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...
14:24 wizzyrea     what kidn of widgets?
14:24 wizzyrea     they all seem to work
14:24 wizzyrea     we have tested all of those
14:23 jwagner      schuster, anything from bare text to elaborate menu links :-)
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?
14:22 sekjal       one of the systems I'm working on has mostly default branchcode, and only two enumerated patron categories.
14:20 wizzyrea     (rather, it would have been in our system)
14:19 wizzyrea     that must have been a bear to set up
14:19 wizzyrea     :)
14:19 wizzyrea     < impressed by your tenacity
14:19 wizzyrea     oh wow
14:19 kf           I have every combination of borrowercategory and itemtype
14:18 kf           i dont use default values, too many problems with other ils in the past
14:18 wizzyrea     where you see the problem?
14:18 wizzyrea     what kind of rules are you working with?
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
14:17 wizzyrea     box*
14:17 kf           wizzyrea: I tested with German - English is ok
14:17 wizzyrea     it's all out of the bo
14:17 wizzyrea     I have the newest stuff as of about 10 minutes ago
14:17 wizzyrea     Ah!
14:17 kf           wizzyrea: wait, I think I have an idea - our templates might not have been updated
14:16 kf           hm
14:15 wizzyrea     one sec
14:15 wizzyrea     ah all of mine were current...
14:15 kf           overdue
14:15 wizzyrea     like, maybe someone had a hold?
14:15 wizzyrea     were the items overdue or otherwise restricted?
14:15 * kf         confused
14:15 kf           wizzyrea: I tested with another account and it didnt happen again
14:14 wizzyrea     the renewal fail for unchecked items
14:14 wizzyrea     kf: I wasn't able to duplicate that
14:14 kf           hi owen
14:13 owen         Not new kf
14:12 kf           hm, not sure this is new: I opened another account with overdue items and the items are already checked for renewal.
14:11 wizzyrea     k sec
14:11 kf           yes
14:10 wizzyrea     (making sure I'm doing the same thing you are)
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 kf           hm letters missing... renwal failED for those itemS...
14:10 kf           wizzyrea: can you confim?
14:10 kf           it shows renewal fail for those item that I did not mark for renewal
14:09 kf           but the error message is confusing
14:09 wizzyrea     and good morning
14:09 kf           yes, look ok now
14:09 wizzyrea     < mine definitely would have as well
14:08 wizzyrea     it's there on the checkout page
14:08 kf           my librarians got confused
14:08 wizzyrea     yea, that needs to be moved to the checkout if it's not there
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     but I may be a cuckoo, too
14:07 wizzyrea     to do work with it
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     patron detail
14:07 wizzyrea     staff
14:07 gmcharlt     wizzyrea: staff or OPAC?
14:07 wizzyrea     display only
14:06 wizzyrea     I personally don't think we should allow any processing of items on the details page
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
14:05 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.
14:05 kf           swap the tabs
14:05 kf           consistent
14:05 kf           this is not consistend
14:05 kf           when I click on override renewal on details tab all not renewable items are marked
14:04 kf           when I click on override renewal on check out tab no items are marked
14:04 wizzyrea     let me try again
14:04 kf           hm
14:04 wizzyrea     sekjal: it seems to be working for me
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
14:02 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
14:01 sekjal       thanks, wizzyrea and kf!
14:01 kf           sekjal: let me check, we just updated our system
14:01 * wizzyrea   goes to check
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.
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
13:45 Nate         hiya sekjal
13:44 sekjal       morning, Nate!
13:43 Nate         and everyone
13:43 Nate         morning chris_n!
13:43 chris_n      hi Nate
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.
13:32 owen         And since this "tag" really only applies to one title, I question whether it should be approved
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
13:30 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.
13:30 owen         Their tag, "  	Wings in the Night bk. 3 "
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
13:28 nengard      collum, john blyberg mentioned some neat ideas for tags in his sopac talk: http://www.web2learning.net/archives/3712
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
13:26 collum       all good things. Bulk and searchable would be nice.
13:26 nengard      :)
13:26 chris_n      not to mention ugly imho
13:25 chris_n      owen: yeah, I thought all the green might be a bit overwhelming
13:25 nengard      ng')
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 owen         chris_n: I'd say don't highlight the good ones with green, just highlight the problems
13:24 nengard      chris_n figured that
13:23 chris_n      nengard: ie. Koha is looking for a newer version than that installed
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 collum       I would like there to be a way to populate tags based on librarything.
13:23 chris_n      yellow = need to upgrade relative to Koha's requirements
13:23 chris_n      but that is just the skin of an overhaul of the underlying code
13:23 collum       nengard: what do you envision the functionality of a tagging utility to be?
13:23 nengard      what does yellow mean?
13:23 nengard      :)
13:23 chris_n      yes, yes, great
13:21 nengard      it works for me :)
13:21 nengard      chris_n are you suggesting color coding that page? are you asking what we think?
13:20 chris_n      wb hdl_laptop
13:19 chris_n      critiques: http://www.screencast.com/t/OTE0MWJk
13:13 nengard      i'd also like there to be a tagging utility for the staff client
13:13 nengard      type
13:13 nengard      in addition to as a blanket 'this word is bad'
13:12 nengard      I'd also like to approve tags on a per title basis
13:12 nengard      owen - me too!
13:12 owen         Man I really wish the tag moderation page linked to the record/records which users have added tags to.
13:12 * chris_n    has to admit cloning should be at the top :)
13:11 jwagner      chris_n, it's on the development list, right after the cloning and time travel modules....
13:03 nengard      goofy boys
13:03 chris_n      :D
13:03 owen         chris_n: I have a patch for that, but it takes a week to ten days to merge it properly.
13:02 * chris_n    wonders if anyone has a patch to fix a bug he has... ie. a bad cold
13:00 nengard      :(
13:00 * owen       is wondering why he clicked through to that comment from Ben Ide. Terrible way to start the day.
12:59 nengard      do i need to do something other than turn the preferences on?
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      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
12:56 jwagner      owen, thanks.  Hope it takes care of the themes directory problem with the first patch.

12:24 jwagner      hdl_laptop, see Bug 4394 -- I think the revised version takes care of your concerns with it.
12:16 hdl_laptop   any #bug ?
12:15 hdl_laptop   will fix that either.

12:11 kf           I thought jdavidb would share
12:11 * jwagner    thanks kf
12:11 * kf         hands out chocolate to jwagner too
12:10 dan_paris    hdl_laptop> oky merci

12:06 dan_paris    An other question please; An administrator can reset or change user password ? i don't find where is it..
12:06 jwagner      Merci, hdl_laptop!
12:05 jwagner      Well, I haven't approved YET -- I was indicating approval of the idea!
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 * jdavidb    makes a note on the recipe card:  "jwagner approves."
12:04 jwagner      Mmmmmmmmmmmm
12:03 * jdavidb    found a recipe for home-made Snickers bars, and is thinking of making a 9x13" panful for jwagner
12:03 * jwagner    wants chocolate too!
12:02 kf           sleep is a fascinating thing, would like to get more of it
12:02 * kf         hands jdavid some chocolate
12:01 jdavidb      Just a little, kf.  Things are much better today than yesterday.  (funny what nine hours of sleep will do)
12:00 hdl_laptop   hi all
12:00 kf           jdavidb: more chocolate?
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 jwagner      I'm changing the description of opaccolorstylesheet, and I'll have a couple of new ones later.  Here's the 1st one:
11:59 hdl_laptop   jwagner: sure
11:58 jwagner      Was just asking for one, for a translation :-)
11:58 chris_n      lol jdavidb
11:58 * jdavidb    cowers in fear
11:58 jwagner      AHA!  A French speaker!
11:57 * jwagner    looks over the tops of her glasses at jdavidb
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....
11:54 jwagner      Oh well.....
11:51 * magnus     thinks the biblibre gang is in a meeting
11:49 jwagner      Any French speakers online?  I need a syspref translation.
11:49 jwagner      Good [time of day of choice] :-)
11:47 Colin        morning or afternoon as it is here
11:46 kf           good morning jdavidb, Colin, jwagner and gmcharlt :)
11:45 jwagner      Morning....
11:44 gmcharlt     good morning
11:40 chris        ok, time for sleep
11:38 chris        hiya jdavidb
11:38 Colin        welcome jdavidb
11:37 jdavidb      hello, #koha! :)
11:35 chris        (thats why i was testing FCGI::Async) because it didnt need much either
11:34 chris        yeah, pretty much none at all
11:34 Colin        Nice thing is that it dosen't require too much rethinking of existing code to take advantage of that
11:32 chris        with nginx and plack it barely notices
11:31 chris        (or at least load gets to 120+ and it starts swapping like mad)
11:31 chris        the machine bursts into flames
11:31 chris        if i hit that url with 100 concurrent connection on apache2
11:30 chris        yep, tis faster but the main win is throughput
11:30 Colin        There's a definite difference
11:28 chris        cgi too
11:28 chris        and cig
11:28 chris        but with apache2
11:28 chris        exact same code
11:28 chris        http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl
11:28 chris        contrast with
11:28 chris        everying but opac-detail.pl works
11:28 chris        running with nginx in front, plack behind
11:28 Colin        It looks nice... has defiite potential
11:27 chris        http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl
11:27 chris        Colin: thanks for the plack hint
11:26 Colin        g'day #koha (huh?)
11:25 nengard      good morning all!!
11:25 nengard      first thing I see after logging in - 'huh?' -- that's not a nice greeting chris :) hehe
11:24 chris        huh?
11:22 kf           huh?
11:21 dan_paris    chris: thank KF!
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
11:18 kmkale       i wonder how you guyz wonder aloud like that :(
11:12 * chris_n    is not fully awake yet
11:11 chris_n      upgrade manager (using -d)
11:09 kmkale       chris_n: did you do a upgrade via upgrade manager or from a cd / dvd?
11:07 munin        chris_n: The operation succeeded.
11:07 chris_n      @later tell kmkale: I succesfully upgraded to lucid last week
10:58 chris_n      heya chris
10:58 chris        hi chris_n
10:58 chris_n      kmkale: that sounds like a nasty error though :-P
10:57 chris_n      and good morning #koha
10:57 chris_n      kmkale: I did last week and all is well

09:35 chris        should have been done anyway so thats fine, ill look at opac-detail now
09:35 chris        }
09:35 chris        else {                                                                                                                        $template->param( branchloop => GetBranchesLoop());

09:34 chris        what i did was this
09:34 hdl_laptop   yes
09:32 chris        http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-topissues.pl  work for you now?
09:32 chris        fixed that one
09:32 * chris      fixes
09:32 chris        its broken in apache2 as well
09:31 chris        http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-topissues.pl
09:31 chris        $template->param( branchloop => GetBranchesLoop(C4::Context->userenv->{'branch'}));
09:31 chris        ah yep i see why
09:30 chris        in
09:30 chris        interesting opac-topissues.pl works fine if you are logged
09:30 chris        so far, it seems just those 2
09:29 chris        login works tho
09:26 chris        valid perl errors
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.
09:23 hdl_laptop   Same thing.
09:23 hdl_laptop   http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-topissues.pl
09:22 chris        thats me breaking opac-detail.pl
09:22 chris        yeah thats not psgi tho

09:15 Amit_G       but pubdate also using the same st-numeric
09:14 hdl_laptop   I was just suggesting another way ro do things.
09:13 Amit_G       ok
09:13 hdl_laptop   Amit_G: I am not using MARC21 neither lexile.

09:07 Amit_G       st-numeric  is not correct for lexile searching
09:06 hdl_laptop   Amit_G: ?
09:05 Amit_G       i m just reading your comment on http://lists.koha.org/pipermail/koha-patches/2010-January/005276.html
09:05 Amit_G       hdl_laptop around
09:04 chris        i just ramped it up
09:04 chris        that might have been the missing piece
09:04 chris        yep, nginx is doing the css and js
09:03 hdl_laptop   I tried this but css and js was not loaded.
09:02 chris        with ngnix in front
09:02 chris        plackup -MPlack::App::CGIBin -e 'Plack::App::CGIBin->new(root => "/home/chris/git/koha.git/opac")->to_app'
09:02 chris        under this
09:02 chris        so opac-main.pl served 310 requests in 24 seconds
09:01 chris        cool
09:01 hdl_laptop   it works
09:01 chris        ive only set it up for that url just for testing
09:01 chris        only the url i pasted
09:01 chris        neither will that
09:01 hdl_laptop   http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl
09:01 chris        yeah that wont work
09:01 hdl_laptop   http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?idx=&q=John
09:00 chris        im running it like this
09:00 chris        thats what i just benchmarked
09:00 chris        work for you?
09:00 chris        hdl_laptop: does http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org:82/opac-main.pl
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

08:59 chris        Test total duration was 24 seconds and CAPS average 16:
08:45 chris        its worth benchmarking anyway, to see if its any faster than FCGI::Async
08:43 chris        and persistent is the main thing that psgi gives you
08:43 chris        it compiles them into psgi, and runs them persistently
08:43 hdl_laptop   at its full but kind of emulation of CGI
08:42 hdl_laptop   sure, but then you donot really use psgi
08:42 chris        not if you use CGI::Compile and CGI::Emulate
08:42 hdl_laptop   But will still.
08:42 hdl_laptop   not at first.
08:41 chris        nope
08:40 hdl_laptop   psgi require some heavy work on scripts
08:39 chris        it has the nginx config too
08:39 chris        i just committed it now :)
08:38 hdl_laptop   I saw that patch
08:38 hdl_laptop   good. let me know
08:38 chris        im playing with psgi now to see how that performs
08:38 chris        http://git.workbuffer.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=koha.git;a=commit;h=a025dab4c1868c66f01f1cee935219e5951c0671
08:36 chris        ill commit my ngnix conf too
08:35 chris        you see the FCGI::Async script?
08:35 chris        no problem
08:32 hdl_laptop   .
08:32 hdl_laptop   ?
08:32 hdl_laptop   chris : I just wanted to say thanks for your hints on fcgi
07:51 chris        hdl_laptop: you wanted me?
07:40 chris        yep, have fun :)
07:40 robin        catch you tomorrow
07:39 chris        sounds good
07:39 robin        but now, there's a SOBA get-together at Bodega, so I'm going to the pub :)
07:39 robin        yeah, that's what I figured. Putting an 'output' switch on it won't be hard.
07:39 chris        awesome, doing it that way, means that it will work for MARC21 and UNIMARC too
07:38 robin        will extract author and title and apply them to the MARC records that match those koha field names.
07:38 chris        sweet
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
07:37 chris        its a darn good start :)
07:37 robin        However, there is currently no validation and no output.
07:37 robin        now my script can take a CSV, load it, build an array of MARC records from that, and all without errors :)
07:36 chris        which we wont be importing, but creating instead
07:36 chris        off the top of my head, its just the biblionumber
07:36 chris        :)
07:36 robin        tomorrow though :)
07:36 robin        yeah OK
07:36 chris        maybe just do a describe on each of those tables and eyeball them
07:35 chris        im trying to think if any do
07:35 robin        But others can duplicate between them? (title was just an example)
07:35 chris        not between items, biblio and biblioitems anyway
07:34 chris        some things duplicate, title isnt one of them,
07:34 robin        so 'biblioitems.title' and 'biblio.title'?
07:33 robin        Importantly, will they ever duplicate?
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?
07:32 chris        am now
07:23 kf           good morning #koha
07:02 magnus       g'day #koha

05:46 Amit_G       heya kmkale
05:20 kmkale       good morning all
05:20 kmkale       humph no local trains running in Mumbai today. Everything almost at a standstill
05:05 chris        hopefully someone else will do something and i will no longer feel the need to :)
05:05 chris        i think ill sleep on it
05:05 chris        not sure what to do about it
05:02 chris        yes, yes it is
05:02 larsw        which is a vile form of lying
05:02 chris        yep
05:01 larsw        not just merging, but also picking words to make it look like she said something she didn't
05:01 brendan      ben always seem to take anything out of context...
05:00 * brendan    goes to look
05:00 chris        and quoting jo out of context, ie merging 2 separate comments
05:00 chris        ben is back
05:00 chris        http://koha-community.org/hlt-koha-committee-report-on-discussions-with-ptfs/#comments
03:33 Amit_G       heya chris
03:17 chris        night
03:17 chris_n      g'night
02:41 chris        oh cool
02:41 chris_n      #  f, fixup = like "squash", but discard this commit's log message
02:41 chris_n      #  s, squash = use commit, but meld into previous commit
02:41 chris_n      #  e, edit = use commit, but stop for amending
02:41 chris_n      #  r, reword = use commit, but edit the commit message
02:41 chris_n      #  p, pick = use commit
02:41 * chris_n    notices that git rebase -i has new options
02:40 chris        nice
02:37 SelfishMan   pretty
02:37 * chris_n    adds color-coding to about->Perl Modules to indicate when modules need updating relative to Koha's requirements
01:18 chris        handy
00:30 mason        using the '-x' arg, handles the bad record better, and skips/succeeds - rather than barfing
00:29 mason        ./rebuild_zebra.pl -a -b -r -x
00:29 mason        aaah, heres the fix for me...
