23:52 mle        well its not gonna be AD
23:51 mle        ty
23:51 mle        hehe
23:51 chris      i havent done any saml stuff myself, so your guess is as good as mine
23:51 mle        tips?
23:51 chris      cool
23:51 mle        looking into which directory to deploy
23:50 mle        got some SAML training last week even
23:50 mle        got some SMAL training last week
23:50 mle        : )
23:50 chris      not bad, and you?
23:49 mle        hey chris. hows tricks?
23:06 magnus     g'night #koha
23:03 magnus     yeah, and neither is the North Cape, just some 16 hours by car ;-)
22:58 larsw      barely five minutes by foot!
22:58 larsw      NZ is not far away at all
22:54 magnus     it's just that there seemed to be some reactions of that kind to having kohacon in nz... ;-)
22:51 magnus     robin: i know!
22:48 robin      magnus: nz isn't remote anyway. It's just that many people decide to live stupidly large distances away :)
22:47 chris      heh
22:47 magnus     it would make nz seem a *lot* less remote... ;-)
22:47 chris      definitely
22:46 magnus     we should have kohacon up here some time, in the middle of summer
22:46 magnus     sure is!
22:45 chris      that would be something special to see
22:44 magnus     nights like these make the whole above-the-polar-circle-malarky worth wile...
22:42 chris      :)
22:42 * magnus   has been grumbling a bit about the weather and just wants to put the record straight by pointing out that he now has a livingroom full of sunlight, at 45 minutes past midnight!
22:15 chris      nice song for friday http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0vDU-L2qcA&a
21:59 chris      cya sekjal
21:59 sekjal     cheers, all!
21:59 sekjal     alright, pulling into New Haven, with all of 13% battery remaining.  hope to be back on later today or tomorrow.
21:59 chris      sweet
21:58 sekjal     she got to spend a semester in Australia, but had to skip the week in NZ... so now we can make it up together!
21:58 chris      awesome! i think quite a few ppl are doing that
21:56 sekjal     I've also got to get tickets for my wife, who will be joining me after the conference for a little vacation time
21:55 chris      :)
21:55 sekjal     yeah, it does set a bit of a high (or rather, low) standard
21:55 chris      :) the deal nengard got was pretty sweet
21:55 sekjal     keep hoping I'll magically catch some sweet deal
21:55 sekjal     chris; not yet... I really need to get on that
21:54 chris      your flights to nz booked? virgin australia has usb for charging
21:53 chris      :)
21:53 sekjal     ah, well, I can still design even if I can't actually code
21:53 sekjal     yeah
21:51 chris      ahh bummer
21:50 sekjal     I'm very happy the bus has WiFi, but unfortunately it doesn't have power.... my battery will be giving in shortly
21:47 pianohack  now that my brendan harassment has been delegated to munin
21:47 sekjal     and hello to you
21:47 pianohack  also, hello
21:47 pianohack  cool
21:47 sekjal     np, pianohack.  On my way to ALA, myself
21:46 pianohack  thanks ian
21:46 pianohack  cool
21:46 sekjal     brendan_o is his office bot
21:46 jdavidb    hi, chris.
21:45 pianohack  k
21:45 chris      hi jdavidb
21:45 chris      pianohack: i think he is on his way, or is at ALA and yes those are both him :)
21:45 pianohack  brendan|h or brendan_o: are either of you brendan gallagher, and are you around?
21:41 cait       good night all
21:41 sekjal     I suppose... but convenience!
21:41 gmcharlt   right, but you don't have to reindex bibs and authorities in the same run
21:40 sekjal     but you can't combine -a and -x with rebuild_zebra.pl
21:40 gmcharlt   sekjal: right, and it does that anyway with the -x option - the DOM filter isn't required to index MARCXML documents using the GRS-1 indexing config
21:32 sekjal     getting past that would get us around the ISO 2709 file size limit bug, wouldn't it? since MARCXML has no such limitation
21:31 sekjal     there is still the issue of combining DOM and XML export (resulting in no root element), but that seems like it's achievable
21:29 chris      definitely
21:29 gmcharlt   so that we're not making users have to update the XSLT templates directly
21:28 gmcharlt   however, if we make a go of it, I think we should do it by putting up a frontend for storing and maintaining indexing definitions
21:28 sekjal     was just reading the code for rebuild_zebra.pl
21:28 sekjal     okay, cool
21:28 sekjal     oh, hi, gmcharlt
21:28 gmcharlt   sekjal: it just that it hasn't been done yet
21:27 sekjal     ah okay.  I'll ask him this weekend, if I get the chance
21:27 chris      there might be something to do with other language support, im not sure gmcharlt would know
21:27 chris      i think it just hasnt been done yet
21:27 sekjal     is it a technical difficulty I haven't found yet?
21:26 sekjal     chris: do you (or anyone else in channel) know why we have DOM filtering for Zebra authorities and not for Zebra biblios?
21:25 chris      ahh
21:24 sekjal     most of the way to New Haven, CT
21:24 sekjal     chris: on the bus just yet
21:24 chris      hi sekjal, in DC now?
20:49 chris      cool another speaker confirmation
20:42 richard    hi
20:42 larsw      I am having one as well :)
20:41 chris      hey there larsw ... it is actually quite a pleasant morning :)
20:40 larsw      gooooood morning
20:35 chris      back
19:45 chris      bus time
19:42 cait       :)
19:40 chris      oh cool some more nz librarians registered last night
19:39 chris      you can play some nz music in your office :)
19:39 cait       :)
19:38 cait       yes I did
19:38 chris      cait: did you see the nz pop culture page ?
19:26 chris      :)
19:19 cait       and perhaps a bit longer to remind me about kohacon
19:18 cait       but will keep the nz flag in my office until the wc is over
19:16 chris      heh yeah
19:15 cait       but I will loose my bet :)
19:15 cait       no not bad
19:14 chris      yeah, not bad for the only team with amateurs in it :)
19:13 cait       chris: you go unbeaten :(
19:09 chris      http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/fifa-world-cup/all-whites/3852415/Pride-and-tears-end-wild-ride
19:07 chris      and it does mean i dont need to keep getting up at 2am
19:06 chris      otoh, we do end up with more points than the defending world champs .. so thats ok :)
19:06 chris      a
19:06 chris      but stupid italy lost to slovaki
19:06 chris      we managed to draw 0-0 with paraguay, so nz goes threw the world cup unbeaten
19:06 chris_n    that's not good this early in your morning
19:05 jwagner    morning, chris
19:05 * chris    is tired
19:05 owen       Hi chris
19:05 chris_n    heya
19:05 chris      morning
19:05 * chris_n  thanks jwagner for the vote of confidence
19:04 jwagner    chris_n, if it were _easy_ they wouldn't need people of your ability to do it :-)
19:04 * owen     does his best to avoid network administration, bolstered by healthy levels of ignorance
19:03 wizzyrea_  chris_n: I can so relate
19:03 chris_n    run fast :)
19:03 jdavidb    I'm off to catch the bus, y'all.
19:03 chris_n    why can't network administration be easy?
19:03 chris_n    *sigh*
19:00 jwagner    reading back, jdavidb will never catch me in karma!
18:50 cait       I think it might be confusing for patrons (thought about hiding it with jQuery)
18:49 cait       I wondered what the pull down is good for
18:49 munin      04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4830 normal, P5, ---, henridamien, NEW, item type on purchase suggestion not carried over
18:49 owen       Hm, I guess that's Bug 4830
18:48 owen       What complicates things is that my submission form doesn't actually show item types, it shows collection codes.
18:48 owen       Can anyone confirm something for me? In my up-to-date install of HEAD when I submit a suggestion with an item type the item type information is not saved to the suggestions table
18:46 owen       karma party for the next person to fix a bug older than one year. I'll bring the pluses.

16:20 jwagner    joetho, something for the "cherrypick into Koha" list?
16:19 joetho     the goblin newbie zone has a quest where you feed monkeys explosive bananas and fight a giant mechanical chicken!
16:17 cait       hi #koha
16:01 NickyNick  Yep
16:01 wizzyrea   are you running the jobs as the koha user?
16:00 NickyNick  Anyone know why I would get this error when starting Zebrasrv even though Koha user has full right to the zebradb directory? - lock file /var/lock/koha/zebradb/biblios/zebrasrv.pid [Permission denied]
15:55 jwagner    I was hoping, if someone has done it successfully, then their own web developers could look at such a site and do their own mods to opac.css.  Doesn't sound hopeful, though.
15:54 * chris_n  thinks it could also be driven by the $$$/year they represent even if there is no liquid $$$ atm :-P
15:54 jwagner    Yes, I've been trying to tactfully make that point to them.  There's the standard OPAC customization I do, and then there's Other Stuff.  This falls in the Other Stuff category.
15:54 chris_n    lol wizzyrea
15:52 owen       It doesn't sound like they're in a position to ask for much then :P
15:52 * wizzyrea runs and hides
15:52 wizzyrea   then, ehm, beggars can't be choosers?
15:51 jwagner    hdl, thanks.  It sounds like it would still require some development, correct?  This library has no extra money to spend building anything.
15:47 hdl        just require adequate xslt
15:46 hdl        wizzyrea: jwagner I was just saying that you could embed your search and patron accounts using ILSDI and SRU/SRW research. It was better intgrated than a simple iframe.
15:46 wizzyrea   hee
15:46 chris_n    now for a momentary diversion: "History is written by the winners, and failing that by the people who keep the best backups"
15:45 wizzyrea   I meant to tell you sooner (i.e. apologize)
15:44 wizzyrea   and a couple of them were for 3.4 (which is where I got 2)
15:44 wizzyrea   oh and jane... I was wrong, on the day of our talk there were 11 blockers
15:44 jdavidb    putting a perfectly good web page in a frame is like putting a 6 year old behind the wheel of your new Lexus...sure, you could, but why would you want to?
15:44 wizzyrea   ha
15:43 jwagner    Because the Powers That Be _Say So_ -- no rational reason....
15:42 wizzyrea   I won't even ask why it has to go in a frame
15:42 jwagner    Dunno about that one. I've suggested to the librarian that he put a placeholder page with a search box as something to go into the frame, then let it link & open the OPAC in a new window, but he thinks they won't go for that.  Sigh....
15:40 wizzyrea   (because I didn't know what it was)
15:39 wizzyrea   http://github.com/ptfs/Koha-PTFS/tree/harley/C4/ILSDI, and http://www.diglib.org/architectures/ilsdi/
15:38 jwagner    Not without major development $$$, we don't....
15:38 wizzyrea   or maybe not
15:38 wizzyrea   I think he's saying basically rebuild an all new OPAC that fits in your new theme
15:37 jwagner    hdl, I don't have a clue what you're saying :-(  I think you're beyond my level....
15:37 hdl        able to display the data the way they want.
15:36 hdl        Then ppl could be z
15:36 wizzyrea   web design by committee makes me cry
15:36 wizzyrea   oh god
15:36 hdl        jwagner: you could use ILSDI and zebra to send direct data to the site.
15:36 jwagner    Two non-web developers trying to interpret web design.  Oh The Humanity!
15:36 jwagner    Yep, I already have the colors/images to match the main site.  The new main site isn't available where I can see it yet, though, to see what they're trying to do.  the librarian is trying to explain it to me.
15:36 wizzyrea   same with login boxes
15:36 wizzyrea   don't forget that you can lift out that koha search box and put it on *any* web page
15:35 wizzyrea   jwagner
15:35 wizzyrea   and
15:35 wizzyrea   that's probably another one on jwagner's list >.>
15:34 wizzyrea   it can be done that the *theme* is preserved
15:34 owen       Of course since then they redesigned their main page: http://www.nyackcollege.edu/ *sigh*
15:34 wizzyrea   so I mean
15:34 wizzyrea   http://www.library.org.nz
15:34 wizzyrea   HLT too
15:34 owen       Compare to http://www.nyackcollege.edu/library.php
15:34 * owen     thought this came off pretty well: http://nyack.waldo.kohalibrary.com/
15:33 wizzyrea   into*
15:33 wizzyrea   that it's supposed to fit ito
15:33 wizzyrea   well I meant the organizational website
15:33 jwagner    There's nothing to look at yet -- don't even have a test load done.
15:33 jwagner    If they can see someplace where it's more or less working, maybe they can design something similar.
15:32 wizzyrea   to what you are looking at?
15:32 wizzyrea   do you have clearance to give us a link?
15:32 jwagner    wizzyrea, know of a sample site I could look at?
15:32 wizzyrea   combined with the side nav
15:32 wizzyrea   jwagner: you can do some pretty wicked stuff with the CSS headers to make it look pretty close
15:30 * jwagner  sends waves of calming thoughts toward owen -- ommmmmmm
15:30 wizzyrea   omg*
15:30 wizzyrea   ogm
15:30 * owen     Drupal... rage... rising!
15:30 * jwagner  hopes this at least diverted owen from his Drupal rage :)
15:28 jwagner    And in this case, they sprang a surprise on the library -- new org web site goes live next week, and library isn't due to go live until around 1st of August.  There's nothing to put in the frame yet, but the org still wants something.  Sigh.
15:28 owen       It seems to be a rule of thumb that libraries must be in the middle of a web site redesign when it comes time to implement Koha
15:26 jwagner    The main problem is the organization redesigning its web site & demanding that the library fit into the scheme of things :-(
15:24 * jwagner  agrees....
15:23 * owen     shudders at the thought of any site embedded into a frame on any other site. Period.
15:22 jdavidb    sounds like one of our customers who is Never Satisfied, period.  Something in the water where they live, I think.
15:21 owen       I take it this library isn't satisfied with their customization options?
15:20 jwagner    That's not the answer he wanted :-( but it's the answer I was afraid of.  Thanks.
15:18 owen       Other things just plain won't fit if you try to squeeze them too small. like the search bar with the cart and lists buttons
15:18 owen       ...assuming you're talking about something fixed-width
15:17 owen       jwagner: The YUI grids CSS controls the page width, so you'd have to go about overriding each page's layout
15:16 jwagner    Is there some stylesheet setting that controls page width? Embedding the OPAC as-is is too wide for the frame.
15:16 jwagner    Drat :-(
15:15 * owen     doesn't
15:15 jwagner    Do you (or anyone else) know of a site that's embedded the Koha OPAC into a frame on the main library web page?
15:15 owen       jwagner: Ask me a Koha question to calm my Drupal rage
15:14 owen       Yes
15:13 jwagner    ?
15:13 jwagner    owen, online
15:12 wizzyrea   heya
14:35 custard    Thanks.
14:16 wizzyrea   done
14:15 wizzyrea   I"ll do it, I already have it done :)
14:15 custard    ah. box is window size related. I'll break them into individual wgets.
14:15 amadan     any url for MARCEdit?
14:15 wizzyrea   (mine is rediculous, but window size is close to 1024x768
14:14 wizzyrea   what's the resolution you are working at?
14:14 wizzyrea   hm. it's not doing that on mine
14:14 amadan     any url?
14:14 custard    Tried that. Even on their own they go outside the pretty little box. But the I suppose that's only a but to way outside the box instead of way, way outside the box.
14:14 wizzyrea   usually using MARCEdit
14:13 amadan     for koha
14:13 amadan     how do i convert my catalog from csv into marc?
14:13 amadan     wrong question
14:13 amadan     can i convert my catalog from csv into marc?
14:11 custard    blimy, glad they gave you a way to shorten that url.
14:11 wizzyrea   which of course no sysadmin would really do, but it would make it easier to display
14:11 amadan     hello folks
14:11 wizzyrea   you could just tell people to wget each one separately
14:10 wizzyrea   but it will look pretty
14:10 wizzyrea   nah that won't work
14:09 kf         bye all
14:09 wizzyrea   custard: like this? http://screencast.com/t/ZWJmYWQ4Yj
14:05 custard    yes.
14:04 wizzyrea   dependencies?
14:04 custard    about 3/4 of the way down.
14:03 custard    http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Lucid_using_Koha_packages
13:58 wizzyrea   which page are you working on?
13:58 magnus     one way i have seen is to have a \ at the end of "artificial" lines
13:58 wizzyrea   custard, which page
13:57 magnus     not that i know of, i'm afraid...
13:54 custard    At the moment I've got it differentiated using the <code></code> markup, but it is not as obvious as I would like. Is there any way of reconciling this?
13:52 custard    If the page is useful, this is something that would probably be cut and pasted, so I don't want to put hard breaks into it, but I think it should at least be on the screen.
13:51 custard    right. Ludicrously long bit of text (command with web path in it) that I was planning to do as preformatted text. But it goes way, way outside the box.
13:43 magnus     custard: shoot!
13:29 custard    is there anyone in the room at the moment who could help with a wiki formatting question? (it's for the Koha wiki so somewhat appropriate)
12:55 magnus     ok, thanks for answering a lot of questions anyway!
12:54 Kivutar    magnus: wont work
12:54 magnus     this is on 3.01.00.124
12:54 Kivutar    (coffee time)
12:54 magnus     does that mean "apply directly" doesn't work either?
12:53 Kivutar    maybe it was too late, feature freeze or something like that
12:53 Kivutar    too bad, because these patches come with an api rewritte for the offline circulation
12:52 Kivutar    arf
12:52 magnus     a ha, i can't see it in HEAD...
12:51 Kivutar    it is in biblibre/master, i have no idea if it has been integrated to the community 3.2 or future 3.4
12:50 Kivutar    magnus: in circulation tools, there is a new page, where you can see the pending operations
12:49 Kivutar    apply directly send the operations to koha, and koha apply them
12:49 magnus     um, which process is that?
12:49 Kivutar    everybody post to koha, then koha order the operations, and someone with the rights launch the process
12:48 Kivutar    this is usefull in the case of many people doing offline circulation at the same time
12:48 Kivutar    allowinf you to order them by timestamp
12:48 Kivutar    magnus: if you commit to koha, the operations are stored in a table of the db
12:47 magnus     thanks! and what is the difference between "commit to koha" and "apply directly"?
12:46 Kivutar    magnus: without
12:46 magnus     ok
12:46 Kivutar    yes, but i can't remember if there is the trailing / or not
12:45 magnus     so the whole http://demo.bibkat.no:8080/ ?
12:45 Kivutar    magnus: the url of your intranet
12:44 magnus     Kivutar: what goes in the server field?
12:44 munin      04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3046 major, P5, ---, gmcharlt, NEW, System ignores MaxFine syspref
12:44 kf         Is it ok to close bug 3046? I did  alot of fines testing and it think maxfine is working.
12:44 Kivutar    magnus: you can ask Kyle Hall about the plugin using koc files
12:44 magnus     cool
12:43 magnus     hi! oops, i thought it did... i must be confusing it with something else
12:43 Kivutar    it posts the data to koha
12:43 Kivutar    this plugins don't generate a koc file
12:43 Kivutar    magnus: yes
12:40 magnus     Kivutar around?
12:39 kf         magnus: sorry, never tested it
12:39 magnus     does anyone have experience with the koha offline plugin for firefox? i can't seem to make it sync, and i can't find the file to upload...

11:09 custard    chris: thanks.
11:00 chris      custard: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Starting_a_new_page
10:53 Ropuch     I have a koha dump  - database version is 3.0100041
10:53 Ropuch     Ok, I'm pretty sure i messed something up
10:52 custard    I don't suppose there's a wiki page on how to make/edit pages in the wiki?
10:51 kf         lunch, bbl
10:26 chris      cool
10:23 magnus     i will! hope to figure it out some time next week
10:23 kf         magnus: perhaps you can tell once you have decided on a flight?
10:18 magnus     yeah, several people have told me as much
10:18 magnus     but then, i may just grit my teeth and do it as direct as possible
10:18 chris      ahh, stopovers are a nice way to break the trip up
10:17 magnus     i'm thinking of maybe stopping over to visit relatives in LA
10:17 magnus     would be nice
10:17 chris      i wonder if it might be possible to coordinate with kf that you end up on the same flight ? :)
10:17 magnus     not really
10:16 chris      magnus: do you have any idea which route you will be taking?
10:13 chris      yep
10:13 magnus     i'm looking forward to hearing about integration of koha and kete, i think walter(?) said he would give a talk on that?
10:11 kf         Im sure it will be great
10:09 chris      plus the conference programme is shaping up to have some great talks... from librarians all over the world
10:08 chris      we have a really good room we can use for hte developer conference, its the training room at work, has projector and laptop stations etc .. and all are welcome :)
10:08 paul       kf, you send patches, isn't it ? so you are !
10:08 kf         not sure Im a developer
10:08 paul       kf not yet, I plan to do that in the next days/weeks
10:08 paul       the kohacon is not a "must go", but the hackfest IS for a developper. No doubt !
10:08 kf         paul: have you booked your flights to kohacon?
10:07 paul       yep, and the hackfest part was really a great great time !
10:07 chris      and it was definitely worth it
10:07 * chris    flew the 30 hours to get there :-)
10:07 paul       s/on/one/*
10:06 paul       :D
10:06 paul       kf, yes, there will be on in may ...2006
10:06 chris      the first kohacon was in france kf
10:06 kf         paul: do you have plans for a kohacon in france? ;)
10:06 Ropuch     I'm sure it does
10:05 kf         yes, but it needs a lot of organisation too
10:05 Ropuch     The most scary part is the flight cost ;>
10:05 paul       it's definetly worth it ! undoubtfully !
10:04 magnus     kf: scary yes, but i think it will be worth it
10:03 paul       (& 1800� !)
10:03 paul       will stop&go in HongKong probably
10:03 paul       kf, yep, 30 hours from Marseille !!!!
10:03 * paul     strongly encourage you...
10:02 kf         the journey is a bit scary
10:02 kf         atm no, but still thinking about it
10:02 paul       kf, do you plan to come to kohaCon NZ ?
10:02 chris      i wouldnt worry about it :)
10:01 chris      its the time of the commit
10:01 kf         do I need to resend it?
10:01 kf         oh, i forgot to reset the date in my vm after testing... now the patch was sent out on Sat Jul 24 10:37:32 CEST 2010
09:57 kf         paul: two options are better than before. but I think acq really needs a bit of work. hope I can get it to print an pdf today.
09:56 magnus     chris: someone from dell just contacted me on twitter - the power of public complaints...
09:54 paul       kf, yep, but it's not used in acq. It's on our todolist : the display of the money is poor in acq : hardcoded fr or en display :'((((
09:54 kf         and hi paul :)
09:53 kf         paul: see my bug report 4904, there is a link to chris_n's patch
09:53 paul       (hi magnus, kf, chris & al)
09:53 kf         its already there
09:53 paul       kf, do you plan to introduce Loacale::Currency::format ?
09:52 kf         so it should be save to remove the encoding
09:51 kf         chris: I looked at the documentation of Locale::Currency::format. i think it returns utf-8 as default
09:51 magnus     chris: rather!
09:50 chris      kf: unfortunately no, there is not a reliable way to detect encoding
09:50 chris      magnus: wow, that really is a fail from dell
09:42 magnus     chris: great!
09:39 kf         hm I will kill the encode part and send a patch
09:32 munin      04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4904 major, P5, ---, henridamien, NEW, Problem with printing fines in overdue notices
09:32 kf         is there a way to check if something is already utf-8?, I'm working on bug 4904, when I comment out $formatted_fine = Encode::encode("utf8", $formatted_fine); its working perfect. Not sure I can just do it or if there needs to be a test for utf-8 or something.
09:30 chris      hi kf
09:25 kf         morning chris
09:11 chris      at least i thought i sent a patch, ill chase it up
09:11 chris      i thought that was fixed
08:26 * magnus   thinks there is an error in INSTALL.debian and .ubuntu: it says "git clone git://git.koha-community.org/pub/scm/koha.git kohaclone", but should say "git clone git://git.koha-community.org/koha.git kohaclone"?
08:12 Elwell     then realised I was in ~/GIT_Sources/koji/ not ~/GIT_Sources/koha/
08:11 Elwell     doh! /dev/coffee fail. 'git pull' wasn't updating

01:59 chris      night chris_n
01:58 robin      cya
01:58 wizzyrea_  gnite
01:58 chris_n    g'night
01:57 * chris_n  heads off to sleep
01:56 wizzyrea_  well that makes sense
01:56 wizzyrea_  AH
01:56 robin      yep.
01:56 wizzyrea_  s/guess/guessed
01:56 robin      wizzyrea_: no, when Australia has big fires, we sometimes see the results here.
01:56 wizzyrea_  guess I should have guess NZ since you work with chris, right?
01:56 wizzyrea_  oh I thought you said australia
01:56 robin      wizzyrea_: in NZ (Wellington)
01:55 wizzyrea_  where in australia?
01:55 wizzyrea_  hehe
01:55 chris_n    lol
01:55 robin      We just have a lot of wind, so it's got to be quite something before it counts as extreme here. ALso, anything that's likely to blow down in a storm probably blew down already on a normal day :)
01:54 chris_n    down bursts are the big problem here
01:54 wizzyrea_  at least, nothing that lives up to our reputation as toto's home
01:53 wizzyrea_  but not so much tornado
01:53 wizzyrea_  we've had lots of big lightning, heavy rain, high wind storms
01:53 wizzyrea_  at least not this year
01:53 wizzyrea_  but not here
01:53 wizzyrea_  and farther north
01:53 wizzyrea_  oklahoma is getting them
01:53 wizzyrea_  you know, it seems like we've had fewer of those this year
01:52 chris_n    big thunderstorms in Kansas = big tornados
01:51 robin      ah, big thunderstorms are rare here
01:51 wizzyrea_  (big thunderstorms, I swear I thought I was wearing yellow sunglasses)
01:51 wizzyrea_  but in the evening
01:51 wizzyrea_  we had one of those a few days ago
01:51 robin      That's quite freaky. (and happens here when there are big fires in Australia)
01:50 robin      wizzyrea_: wait until you get up in the morning and the sky is a deep yellow.
01:50 wizzyrea_  the light outside is rose colored... it's quite lovely but it looks a bit weird

01:42 chris_n    it would be just my luck that the wrong windows would break
01:41 gmcharlt_  what did those poor drivers ever do to you?  inflicting windows on them like that!  yike!

01:34 wizzyrea_  no chris, you can not have my mac to go office space on
01:34 chris_n    but suddenly realizes that a better solution would be to recycle it into a ubuntu box
01:34 chris      :)
01:34 wizzyrea_  go all office space on it
01:34 wizzyrea_  you can do it
01:33 * chris_n  takes aim at his windows box
01:33 pianohack  if only
01:33 wizzyrea_  kill windows dead too, while you're at it
01:33 pianohack  with a stick
01:33 wizzyrea_  DEAD.
01:33 pianohack  and kill it dead
01:33 pianohack  (not sure of the name)
01:32 pianohack  then find a service related to automatic updates
01:32 pianohack  chris_n: Go to control panel -> administrative tools -> services
01:32 chris      theres a fix for that
01:31 * chris_n  hates the constant whinning of windows to be rebooted after updates
01:30 chris_n    :)
01:30 chris_n    its hard to beat wizzyrea on the draw
01:30 pianohack  nice photo choice
01:30 chris_n    my wife used to play lots of tennis and says they must be nearly dead

01:09 mib_ffzoy  using the copy number should work just fine, that's about the longest a call number can get
01:07 custard    ok, I think I can understand you wanting a nice big field for that then.
01:06 mib_ffzoy  let me rephrase, I meant 1X2"
01:05 custard    Just being, most  of the books I can see at the moment wouldn't cope with a 2" wide spine label without wrapping it round the sides and making it hard to read.
01:04 mib_ffzoy  spine
01:04 custard    sorry, I'll rephrase. These 2x1" spine labels are going on the back of the book?
01:02 mib_ffzoy  just barcodes
01:02 custard    and labels on the back of the book?
01:01 mib_ffzoy  Courier New
01:00 mib_ffzoy  .12 font
01:00 mib_ffzoy  comfortably on a 2X1" label
01:00 mib_ffzoy  it does fit
00:59 custard    out of curiosity, how were you planning of fitting all that on the spine label?
00:59 pianohack  Though it is awesome for reports
00:59 pianohack  mib_ffzoy: Not necessarily
00:59 mib_ffzoy  boy, i guess i'll have to learn SQL soon
00:58 wasabi     oooh, 80 chars :)
00:58 wasabi     enumchron            | varchar(80)  | YES  |     | NULL              |                             |
00:58 mib_ffzoy  ah, i saw it
00:58 chris_n    http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/24/sports/tennis/24wimbledon.html
00:57 wasabi     http://paste.koha-community.org/10
00:57 pianohack  also, hi, mason :)
00:57 pianohack  mib_ffzoy: internal name for another item field
00:57 wasabi     nah, its a column in the items table
00:56 wasabi     yeah, some of those columns could get increased a bit, disk is cheap etc..
00:56 mib_ffzoy  enumchron is a system pref?
00:55 mib_ffzoy  there are many examples like this, i assumed whatever fit in the field would actually show up but turns out it's only up to 30 characters... thanks for the help, guys!
00:55 wasabi     'Publication Details'
00:54 pianohack  It has some other weird name
00:54 pianohack  Well, yes, but not as enumchron
00:54 wasabi     enum does the same
00:54 pianohack  I don't even know what enumchron shows up as in the interface
00:53 pianohack  *interface
00:53 pianohack  wasabi: also, copy number is visible in the database
00:53 wasabi     ahh yes, copy-number is a better place than enumchron :)
00:52 pianohack  mib_ffzoy: Is this some massive bib that has, say, an actual book and an accompanying study guide?
00:51 mib_ffzoy  i'll use that, you are right
00:51 pianohack  like c.2
00:51 pianohack  There is also a copy number field for entering copy-specific information
00:50 pianohack  mib_ffzoy: What is the actual physical thing in question
00:50 mib_ffzoy  i think a better solution is just to enter "guide" which does fit
00:50 wasabi     but thats poss. incorrect too, but a better solution than yours
00:50 mib_ffzoy  and where is "enumchron"?
00:49 wasabi     i'd put additional stuff like 'study guide c.2' , in the enumchron field, rather than callnumber
00:48 mib_ffzoy  to differentiate from the actual book
00:48 wasabi     yep
00:47 mib_ffzoy  it's not on the bib record but it's on the item record
00:46 mib_ffzoy  i''ll just use "guide"
00:46 wasabi     'study guide c.2' should not be in the callnumber?
00:46 mib_ffzoy  i guess i'll have to shorten it
00:46 pianohack  But why are they so long?
00:46 pianohack  You can ask your vendor to change it
00:46 pianohack  mib_ffzoy: That is longer than Koha's 30 character limit
00:45 pianohack  Oh my goodness
00:45 wasabi     other koha-express users maybe lurking on irc, and may be able to help you
00:44 mib_ffzoy  HD31 .R5647 2007 study guide c.2
00:44 wasabi     only PTFS/liblime have access to the koha-express codebase?, i think
00:44 pianohack  mib_ffzoy: How long is this call number? Is it longer than 30 characters (letters)?
00:43 pianohack  *database column
00:43 pianohack  and an itemcallnumber database table
00:43 wasabi     aah, you need to contact your vendor for this problem...
00:43 pianohack  mib_ffzoy: There's an itemcallnumber systempreference
00:42 mib_ffzoy  maybe that's why
00:42 mib_ffzoy  it's Koha Express
00:42 wasabi     try to work out why your busted koha is busted
00:41 wasabi     then compare it to your current busted koha
00:41 wasabi     my advice  - set up a new koha-stable (3.0.6) and observe it working correctly
00:41 mib_ffzoy  so what should i do to increase the limit
00:40 wasabi     works ok for me
00:40 mib_ffzoy  oh, ok, :)
00:39 wasabi     so, a 30 character limit....
00:39 wasabi     char is a abbreviation of characters
00:38 mib_ffzoy  have no idea what chars are :(
00:37 mib_ffzoy  all i see i itemcallnumber is: 050ab
00:35 wasabi     30 chars is the DB limit
00:35 wasabi     itemcallnumber       | varchar(30)
00:34 mib_ffzoy  i enter it in the item record but then it gets cut off
00:33 wasabi     mib_ffzoy: check that its not cut-off in the DB ;)
00:31 mib_ffzoy  what do i do if a long call number appears cut off in the OPAC?
00:31 mib_ffzoy  hi, all!

00:29 wasabi     custard: try the kc.org wiki...
00:26 custard    chris: have some notes on the problem that you helped me with. Would they be useful to put somewhere?
