02:57 jcamins If my nick has been bobbing on and off IRC, I do apologize.

02:58 chris ppl bounce in and out a lot
02:58 jcamins Good.

02:59 chris i do know that one of hte things LEK did, is rename db columns
03:00 chris just another thing to make reintegration hard
03:00 chris sure fixing typos is good, but if its lasted 9 years, i think we could just leave it :)
03:00 jcamins Heh.
03:01 jcamins What a mess, upgrading.
03:02 chris yup
03:02 jcamins I guess maybe that was the point.
03:02 chris i think so
03:03 chris if you are gonna lock ppl in, the point is to make the lock difficult to pick
03:03 jcamins Yeah, I guess.

07:51 cait morning #koha
07:55 magnus morning cait
07:55 cait hi magnus :)
09:18 * magnus wonders if koha has any kind of presence at IFLA2010
09:20 chris not that im aware of
09:28 cait hi chris
09:35 chris hi cait
09:42 cait :)
09:46 cait someone around who wants to help me with a perl problem? :)
09:46 chris maybe :)
09:47 cait ah :)
09:47 cait ok, bug 5003
09:47 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5003 normal, P5, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW, Can not search for organisation by name
09:47 cait the problem is, that gurarantor_search.pl always searches for patron category A
09:48 cait because it does not know if its started from an C or P account
09:48 cait I tried to pass the category_type as url parameter, but I am not sure how to get this parameter into a variable in search_gurarantor.pl - what I tried is not working :(
09:51 cait working on a paste :)
09:52 chris k
09:54 cait http://paste.koha-community.org/42
09:58 chris that looks ok to me
09:59 * chris will try something
10:00 chris so you end up at the search box right?
10:02 chris [Wed Aug 11 22:02:10 2010] [error] [client 203.97.214.51] [Wed Aug 11 22:02:10 2010] guarantor_search.pl: C at /home/chris/git/koha.git/members/guarantor_search.pl line 50.
10:03 chris seems to be passing it through for me
10:03 chris but when i search, it doesnt (which makes sense because its not set in the form in the template)
10:04 chris so what you need to do is pass that variable through to that template, then set it as a hiddent input
10:06 cait ah
10:06 cait thx chris, I will try that
10:42 smustafa hello everyone...
10:42 smustafa I need help with my zebra + koha 3.1 latest
10:43 smustafa When I run rebuild_zebra -a -b -z
10:43 smustafa I get nothing, no errors, no display nothing
10:43 smustafa and when I search Koha, still no results show
10:43 smustafa :( :(
10:45 chris run it with -a -b -r -v
10:46 chris for the first run
10:46 chris that will reset and rebuild the indexes, in verbose mode
10:46 chris and if any errors occur you will see them
10:47 smustafa sighs..
10:47 chris if no errors, then you need to check you zebrasrv log (assuming zebrasrv is running of course .. search wont work without that) to see the error
10:47 smustafa let me try
10:48 chris wth the -z switch and without -v it will only update whats been changed (ie whats in the zebraqueue) and with no output, its designed ot be silent to be run as a cron job
10:48 smustafa wow
10:48 smustafa that actually did something!!!
10:49 smustafa thanks alot dear
10:49 wasabi yep, -r is 'reset'
10:49 chris -z will be doing something too, if you have changes waiting to be indexed in your zebraqueue
10:49 smustafa I didnt
10:49 smustafa because I used the same machine that had my koha 3.0 before but simply deleted the folder and re-installed the DEV of koha 3.1
10:49 smustafa I think thats why :)
10:50 chris then it was doing exactly what you told it to, nothng :)
10:50 smustafa thanks alot chris
10:50 smustafa it works now :D
10:50 smustafa let me check the OPAC
10:50 chris cool
10:50 smustafa its perfect
10:50 smustafa thank you :D
10:50 smustafa now I am happier than before hehe
11:03 cait smustafa: I wrote a patch for your LC call number search problem - perhaps you want test it
11:04 smustafa Cait, i don't know how to apply patches to my local branch
11:04 smustafa :(
11:04 smustafa but I did see the code of the patch and I will implement it on my code
11:05 smustafa thank you by the way Cait, I will also use the way you implemented it to add another field called search by DLC number
11:05 smustafa My director wants that also...
11:06 cait perhaps you want to try to apply it, that's the command I always use:
11:06 cait git am -s -3 -i -u name_of_patch
11:07 cait but don't ask me about the options :)
11:07 smustafa tehehe
11:07 smustafa whats the name of your patch? does it say it in the e-mail?
11:08 cait its attached to the bug
11:08 cait bug 5092
11:08 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5092 normal, PATCH-Sent, ---, katrin.fischer, NEW, No results when searching by LC Call Number: in Z39.50 Server
11:09 cait click on the link "proposed patch" in the attachemet table at the top of the page to save it as .patch file
11:09 smustafa ok let me see
11:09 smustafa ahh I have to apply by file? Not remotely?
11:10 smustafa shoot let me search git
11:12 cait it is not in head yet
11:12 cait I would use a branch for testing
11:12 smustafa oh I see, so I do git am -s -3 -i -u /usr/share/patch_filename.patch
11:12 smustafa something like that
11:13 cait look ok to me
11:16 smustafa It worked great thank you so much cait
11:16 smustafa now I learned how to apply file patches also :D
11:16 smustafa woho
11:17 cait I learned from chris :)
11:17 smustafa hehe chris helps everyone
11:17 cait yes, he is great
11:17 cait chris++
11:17 cait will be back in a few minutes
11:18 paul_p chris answers so many questions, that I suspect there are 2 or 3 chris in fact :D
11:18 paul_p ( hello cait & smustafa )
11:18 smustafa :)
11:18 smustafa alright guys, I will be leaving
11:18 smustafa take care and thanks for helping out :) :)

12:21 cait chris: yay it works :)
12:37 cait bye all ! :)
12:38 jwagner owen, Bug 5113 -- Kurt's on an older mainstream version. The problem is fixed in later versions.
12:38 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5113 normal, P5, ---, jwagner, NEW, Some OPAC search results not hyperlinked in Internet Explorer 8
12:39 owen jwagner: Thanks, I knew you were the one who would know
12:41 jwagner Not sure where/what the fix was, but it's OK in both head and harley
13:00 owen I was just testing Bug 2585 to see if it was still an issue, and I'm getting weird results for a record which uses an authority record for its author
13:00 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=2585 normal, PATCH-Sent, ---, gmcharlt, ASSIGNED, XSLT bib details: search links for authorized names can be incorrect
13:01 owen The XSLT OPAC detail view shows duplicate author links
13:02 owen One links to the author name (?q=au:Author,Name). The other links to what appears to be an authority search by number?
13:02 owen "?q=an:2"
13:05 owen I don't use authorities records outside of testing, so I don't know if this is typical or not
13:05 owen Has anyone else seen this?
13:06 nengard owen, i've seen it, but not as duplicates - i've seen it as one or the other way
13:07 nengard i think it should always do an author search - not an authority search
13:07 nengard let me go see what i get in my system
13:08 nengard where are you seeing duplicates? I only see one link and in my case it's going to authority
13:08 owen OPAC, XSLT on, detail page.
13:14 nengard on the OPAC, XSLT on, detail page for me I see the author links at the top - but i only see them once - not twice ....
13:14 jcamins_a Good morning.
13:15 nengard sorry - got to run - will be back later
13:18 owen Should the import tool in the staff client work for authority records, or am I dreaming?
13:19 jcamins_a It's a good dream.
13:25 owen Should the bulkmarcimport command line tool work without errors or am I dreaming about that too? :(
13:26 owen DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Column 'authtypecode' cannot be null
13:28 jcamins I never tried it, but I think it's supposed to.
13:29 owen I thought I'd download an authority record from LOC to see if it was my hand-entered authority record that was causing my problem
13:32 owen False alarm, I was trying to import the wrong record
13:39 owen Okay, after successfully importing an author authority record at attaching it to a record I'm getting different results than my hand-edited one
13:39 owen No duplicate now, but the link points to the authority search
13:55 mib_btkt1 Good afternoon. Does anyone know how difficult it is too add other marc tags to OPAC? e.g 856 tag or even custom tags? I was looking at the opac-detail.tmpl and an MARC21 xsl page but nothing!
13:56 owen mib_btkt1: Modifying the xsl page is probably the best way to approach it, but it's not exactly simple
13:56 jcamins mib_btkt1: if you want to change the OPAC display, it's very straightforward if you know XSLT.
13:56 owen mib_btkt1: 856 should display already though
13:58 mib_btkt1 Sorry 856 was just an example! So editing the xsl file is the way to go? What about manipulating existing tags? E.g the Subject(s) is included subfields I want seperated out to other tags etc?
13:59 owen mib_btkt1: The xsl file is the best way to go if you want to get down to handling specific MARC tags and subfields. The sky's the limit, as long as you can figure out the XML
14:00 mib_btkt1 Thanks, I just can't find the "Subject (s)" text anywhere in that document. On a side note, has anyone ever thought of a GUI for adding/removing tags? Something I might look at one day!
14:01 jcamins mib_btkt1: look in MARC21slim2OPACDetail.xsl.
14:01 owen Line 384, to be specific
14:01 owen (for subject handling)
14:01 jcamins Oh, one other thing... you have to make sure that you have the XSLT display enabled.
14:03 jcamins The settings are OPACXSLTResultsDisplay and OPACXSLTDetailsDisplay.
14:04 mib_btkt1 thanks, away I go!!!
14:04 jcamins Good luck.
14:32 mib_btkt1 That worked out fine for me thanks! One more small thing, I just upgraded to 3.06 and noticed that the "Checked Out to" on the holdings table isn't there anymore, it used to show the current borrowers name
14:32 mib_btkt1 any ideas?
14:56 jcamins Does Koha have an entry screen for non-mongraph 008s?
14:56 jcamins monograph, rather
15:17 * chris_n read jcamins ' question as "non-monogrammed 008s"
15:18 * jcamins read his question as "monocled 008s" only second after writing it
15:36 briceSanc hello
15:37 sekjal morning, briceSanc
15:37 briceSanc When you import biblios with bulkmarcimport.pl : How to manage duplicates ? Because there is no ISBN on biblios
15:37 briceSanc hi sekjal !
15:38 briceSanc sekjal, ready for the meeting at 3:00pm ?
15:38 sekjal briceSanc: I'm ready any time before then; I've got a call at 3pm.
15:40 briceSanc ok
15:40 briceSanc i will be availaible in 30min
15:40 sekjal briceSanc: sounds good
15:42 sekjal and in answer to your question, when you use bulkmarcimport.pl, it populates both the biblio and biblioitems tables (ISBN living in the biblioitems table)
15:42 sekjal there is a utility in the newer versions of bulkmarcimport to do ISBN matching, but I haven't tried it myself yet
15:50 briceSanc yes it's the -i option
16:02 schuster owen about? I have a jquery question
16:02 owen Yes
16:02 schuster Or for anyone that might be able to help... I want to hide the published on (8/10/10) in the opac with the notes... suggestions? I'm going to have to learn jquery I guess, but not today.
16:03 owen Do you have an example I can see?
16:03 schuster We are going to highlight a database a month using a widget but my boss doesn't want the published on to display.
16:03 wizzyrea i'm not sure what you're referring to
16:03 schuster Give me a sec.
16:06 sekjal briceSanc: brb
16:06 schuster ok yes catalog.pisd.edu
16:06 schuster I'd also like to move the World Book Encyclopedia to above the description if possible.
16:07 owen Can you be specific schuster?
16:07 schuster did you go to the catalog.pisd.edu?
16:08 schuster I want to hide/remove - (published on 08/08/2010)
16:08 wizzyrea $("#news").find("p:contains('published').hide() possibly
16:08 schuster There is a table there - as well the widget is in the last column, but World Book Encyclopedia is in a column all by itself and then the "news/description" is in the middle column.
16:09 wizzyrea don't forget the semicolon, like I did :P
16:09 owen Oh, I thought you were talking about a biblio record
16:09 wizzyrea so
16:09 wizzyrea $("irc://irc.katipo.co.nz/#news").find("p:contains('published').hide();
16:09 wizzyrea erm
16:09 wizzyrea no
16:10 wizzyrea $("#news").find("p:contains('published').hide();
16:11 wizzyrea (I haven't tested that)
16:12 owen $("#news").find("p:contains('published')").hide();
16:12 wizzyrea I knew I was missing something there :P
16:14 owen schuster: I think that "published" text was displaying above the table because of invalid markup somewhere (inside your news item?)
16:22 wizzyrea Is there an "export these preferences as a template" deal anywhere?
16:22 wizzyrea (i know i know, i should just pull out the table. That works great if you actually have access to your DB.)
16:22 owen That's the only way I know of
16:23 wizzyrea ok.
16:23 schuster I would put that in the opacuserjs? or where?
16:23 wizzyrea yep, opacuserjs
16:25 schuster hmmm that removed my widget... but didn't touch the published.
16:28 schuster OK hmmm I see it adjusted the location based on the HTML coding I had put in to "format" the text in the box.
16:32 wizzyrea schuster: that worked on mine.
16:32 wizzyrea not sure what's up with yours.
16:34 schuster OK thanks that gives me something to play with. I'm adjusting my code and based on my formating of the code it moves where the "published" goes...
16:40 sekjal briceSanc: sorry for the delay; had to install some updates and reboot, lest I disappear in the middle of conversation
16:43 owen If I mark a suggestion as "accepted," shouldn't an email message end up in my message_queue table for that patron?
17:02 aarkerio hi! Inside installer (step 1) I am getting: Modules in red must be installed before you may continue PDF::API2::Simple
17:02 aarkerio but in fact PDF::API2::Simple is installed
17:04 aarkerio I installed : apt-get install libpdf-api2-perl
17:04 wasabi aarkerio: ignore it
17:04 wasabi ;)
17:04 aarkerio I can't installer only shows "recheck" button
17:06 aarkerio mmm, I installed using cpan and all is OK, thx!
17:06 wasabi yeah, i use cpan for that tricky module too
17:07 wasabi cpan gives me 'PDF::API2 2.015'
17:07 aarkerio ubuntu package is old
17:59 thd cfouts: are you here in person?
18:03 thd cfouts: nevermind. I just solved my momentary problem. High heat impairs my thinking.

19:17 ricardo back
19:17 slef oops network broke for a mo there. Reading log
19:17 ricardo ricardo = Ricardo Dias Marques, author of installation guide of Koha in openSUSE and contributor/approver to Portuguese translation, Portugal
19:17 thd My data was never a problem. I simply could not display it in a room less than 110 degrees F
19:18 VickiTeal Please be sure to send to koha general list. Thanks.
19:18 gmcharlt VickiTeal: of course
19:19 VickiTeal Thanks. I'm not on developer's list. ;-)
19:19 slef is the vote schedule on wiki somewhere?
19:19 gmcharlt I think this is shaping to be a quick meeting, which does balance out the 2 hour meeting regarding the licensing
19:19 thd VickiTeal: we agreed at the meeting about a relicensing vote that discussion was to take place on the general list.
19:19 gmcharlt slef: not as far as I know, but that would be the home once it's finalized
19:20 VickiTeal OK!
19:20 slef ok. I looked and thought it was just me failing with that wiki again
19:20 * chris_n = Chris Nighswonger, FBC
19:21 chris_n sorry for being late
19:21 gmcharlt chris_n: I think you showed up just in time for setting the next meeting time
19:21 gmcharlt :)
19:21 thd there was a call to summarise the many votes about the relicensing vote held during the relicensing meeting
19:21 chris_n lol
19:22 gmcharlt the first Wednesday in September is the 1st
19:22 chris_n the 1st is good by me
19:22 gmcharlt ok - 19:00 UTC+0 on the 1 September 2010?
19:22 slef
19:22 ricardo gmcharlt: Fine by me
19:22 thd +1
19:22 chris_n +1
19:23 slef ok afaik
19:23 Colin ok
19:23 slef +1
19:23 VickiTeal +1
19:23 hdl looks like I am too late.
19:23 jcamins +1
19:23 slef there are really odd-looking birds here
19:24 gmcharlt slef: the flamingoes?
19:24 gmcharlt hdl: hi
19:24 chris_n pink?
19:24 hdl hi
19:24 thd hdl: you did not miss much but an issue cam up about migrating acquisitions
19:24 gmcharlt hdl: still time for a 3.0 update
19:24 slef scrawny little brown ones
19:24 thd s/cam/came/
19:25 hdl I am packaging it. Will release it this week
19:25 gmcharlt hdl++
19:25 ricardo hdl: Will release what, exactly?
19:25 hdl 3.0.7
19:26 ricardo hdl: Cool! :)
19:26 slef I'll try to post one to http://softwarecoop.posterous.com
19:26 hdl actually : it is already on git.
19:26 jwagner hdl, this is the latest stable version, correct?
19:26 hdl But I will write releasenotes.
19:26 hdl jwagner: yes
19:26 hdl should be at least.
19:27 hdl I am working on budgets migrations. too
19:28 ricardo Nice... Should I try to backport the small patch I contributed today for master branch regarding:
19:28 ricardo Bug 5116
19:28 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5116 minor, P5, ---, ricmarques, NEW, Duplicate and missing entries in "apt-get-debian-lenny.sh"
19:28 ricardo ?
19:28 thd hdl: gmcharlt had suggested a workaround on migrating acquisitions to store old data in renamed tables.
19:29 thd gmcharlt is your suggestion for the absence of any acquisitions migration script or merely the imperfection of such a script.
19:29 gmcharlt the latter
19:29 gmcharlt but looking forward to hdl's work on the budget migration
19:29 briceSanc jwagner, I have received and read your mail, i just need time to answer
19:30 hdl ricardo: send it to me.
19:30 hdl I have little data to test aqorderbreakdown migration correctly,
19:31 hdl if any good soul is willing to send good test data, I will take it.
19:32 ricardo hdl: OK, I'll write a patch for 3.0.x and send it for the Koha 3.0.x branch to the "koha patches" mailing list and "Cc"ing you. Does that sound good?
19:33 hdl yes
19:33 ricardo hdl: Cool, thanks
19:33 ricardo gmcharlt: Not urgent but, when you have the time, could you give your feedback regarding:
19:33 ricardo http://lists.koha-community.org/pipermail/koha-devel/2010-August/034334.html
19:34 jwagner Is the meeting over?
19:34 ricardo jwagner: Oops, sorry... You're right. I'll shut up now :)
19:35 hdl will read logs.
19:35 jwagner No, I didn't mean that -- just wasn't sure
19:35 hdl back to vacation time
19:35 jwagner I think we were finished, just checking
19:36 thd CGI516: are you still here?
19:36 slef http://softwarecoop.posterous.com/strange-bird
19:37 ricardo jwagner: Yep, maybe we are finished... gmcharlt: Do you want to formally "close" the meeting, if that's the case?
19:37 slef probably too dark
19:37 gmcharlt yep, I think we're done
19:37 gmcharlt thanks, all
19:38 ricardo gmcharlt: Thank you
19:38 * thd goes back to memory leaks in gparted
19:38 ricardo thd: Memory leaks in Gparted? What version are you using?
19:38 slef ok see you next week. Or in irc.oftc.net #spi in 15
19:41 thd ricardo: I am using the latest version of gparted which is packaged with parted magic.
19:44 ricardo thd: OK, so I'll assume it's the current gparted version (0.6.2). I don't have experience of "memory leaks" but I think I'm at least "one version behind". Could your hard drive be "dying" and, if that's the case, could it be causing problems to gparted (just guessing)?
19:45 thd ricardo: no this is happening on many computers including one with a new hard drive
19:45 thd also, I have been testing hard drives and RAM vigorously
19:46 thd I have not lost any data when gparted has failed.
19:46 thd I had to resort to backup in the past when parted failed 3 years ago.
19:48 gmcharlt ricardo: clone over http is now working again
19:49 ricardo gmcharlt: Cool :) Many thanks. Did you also set it up as a cronjob, or would that be a bad idea?
19:49 gmcharlt update-server-info wasn't the problem - that gets run as a post-update hook
19:49 gmcharlt it was a change in the apache config that broke it; few enough users of clone-over-http that I don't thnk anybody had noticed
19:50 thd ricardo: I cannot be certain that some other part of parted magic than gparted is having memory leaks. However, memory leaks and other problems are obvious.
19:51 ricardo thd: You're booting Gparted from some kind of a Boot media, like a Boot CD, right? If you're not, try to do that.
19:51 thd ricardo: I would not think of using gparted from the disk on which it is operating.
19:52 ricardo thd: Yeah, I figured as much, but wanted to be sure :)
19:52 thd ricardo: I use a boot media and the OS is running entirely in RAM.
19:52 ricardo thd: right
19:54 thd Rebooting cures all problems when waiting more than enough time for any write to have finished does not.
19:55 ricardo thd: Right... Oh well, I guess I can't help you, sorry. Try to see if the bug is posted to the "Bugs" forum of "Parted Magic" - http://partedmagic.com/forum.html
19:55 thd ricardo: I am able to accomplish what I need to do but it is taking many days because I constantly have to restart the process.
19:56 ricardo thd: Is anything available in the "error console"? I forget where the error console lives... Alt+F9 or ALT+11, maybe?
19:56 thd ricardo: If I had the hardware to support some other type of volume management and trusted the integrity of data on such systems my problem would be simpler.
19:56 ricardo s/ALT+11/ALT+F11
19:57 owen I guess I didn't miss much meeting
19:57 thd owen: very little communicated during the meeting.
19:57 ricardo owen: Congratulations! You're right! You missed a pretty speedy meeting :)
19:58 * owen isn't sure whether that's good or bad
19:58 thd ricardo: I expect that everything would be in /var/log on the virtual file system.
19:59 ricardo thd: That makes sense, although I'm not sure of that
20:00 thd owen: I think that there has been somewhat less to report and discuss because of the time of year.
20:01 ricardo thd: *nod*
20:02 ebegin I remember that there was a section about the default authorized value on the wiki. I can not find it. Anybody remember where it is?
20:02 owen the default authorized value of what?
20:03 thd I will try to look for the problem next time it occurs. I am almost finished after several days work reorganising partitions.
20:03 ebegin of authorized value :) Those that are hardcoded
20:04 ricardo thd: OK. I'm sorry that you had to put up with that
20:04 ebegin Like LOST... 1 : Lost, 2: Long Overdue, 3: Lost and paid for, etc.
20:05 briceSanc During the IRC meeting, the relicensing discuss was for the Wiki or for the Koha software ?
20:05 owen briceSanc: For Koha
20:06 briceSanc ok and what are the main change of the licence ?
20:07 thd ricardo: I could use merely 2 or 3 partitions like most people but I want different mount options and other controls which only come from a much greater degree of partitioning.
20:08 ricardo thd: Sure, I meant that I'm sorry that you to put up with those problems of Parted Magic / gParted
20:08 thd ricardo: just life with very complex systems
20:08 thd :)
20:09 jwagner ebegin, I think the default authorized values are an option during installation -- is that what you're asking?
20:09 thd ebegin: you have referred to some value lists with no formal specification.
20:10 ricardo ebegin: I believe the default value of an authorised list is defined / chosen on each of the (Cataloging) frameworks that use it
20:10 ebegin jwagner, that's correct. But there was a list somewhere on the wiki (maybe it wasn't move on the new version)
20:11 thd ebegin: Item status values are not formally specified which makes it impossible to design a feature which exploits the values in a normalised manner.
20:11 ebegin I fell back on the sql data
20:11 ricardo ebegin: Check the "Default value" field of the "Advanced constraints" section of a Cataloging framework that you use, for a field that uses / should use some "authorised values" list
20:12 thd ebegin: Item status value meanings vary between libraries although there are some partial presumptions implied in the code.
20:13 thd ebegin: 0 and 1 have explicit meaning for item status. Values beyond that are John Conway's humorous data type errrm :)
20:15 thd ebegin: there may be some common practise in Koha MARC 21 libraries for item status values but it differs from common practise for Koha UNIMARC libraries.
20:16 ebegin Another example of an hardcoded value is -1 for Ordered in the NOT_LOAN authorised value.
20:16 ebegin Anyway, thanks guys. I found what I was looking for :D
20:17 briceSanc owen, is there a web place where i could be informed about the relicensing of Koha?
20:18 thd briceSanc: If you search for AGPL on the mailing list archives you should find the past discussion.
20:18 ricardo ebegin: Where did you find it, then?
20:18 ebegin in the sql data of the installer :D
20:19 thd briceSanc: Future discussion in relation to ballot design, voting etc. has been agreed to be held on the general mailing list.
20:21 thd briceSanc: Expect more discussion on the mailing list in about a week. My hardware capacity to participate had been interrupted recently.
20:21 briceSanc ok thanks for your answer
20:22 * thd returns to moving partitions
20:24 ricardo ebegin: OK, thanks for the info
20:32 richard hi
20:32 * chris wanders in
20:39 owen Hi chris
20:41 chris power all back i see
20:41 owen Dunno, I went home :)
20:41 chris :)
20:44 ricardo Hi chris! Long time no see :)
20:44 chris heya ricardo, hows things?
20:44 ricardo Hello richard
20:45 richard HI ALL
20:45 richard oops
20:45 richard darn caps lock
20:46 ricardo chris: Lots of work... Being kept busy at work with many things regarding Linux Server admin, besides Koha (so I can now only work with / study Koha sometimes)
20:47 chris ahh, i hear that
20:47 ricardo chris: Is "I hear that" an idiomatic expression for "I have the same problem" ? ;-)
20:48 chris yeah, can also mean 'you have my sympathy'
20:48 ricardo chris: Thanks! :)
20:50 ricardo chris: I was looking to "AuthoritiesMarc.pm" today... I believe there's a small bug there (and maybe - but just maybe - another one "hiding" that would not be so small). Let's see if I can make something out of this---
20:50 chris cool
20:51 ricardo chris: And how's your life?
20:51 chris stupidly busy, but good apart from that ;)
20:51 ricardo chris: ahh, i hear that ;-)
20:51 * owen like busy if it's the right kind
20:52 * ricardo agrees with owen

21:10 ricardo chris: *nod*
21:48 ricardo Hi darling! I always wished to say that... ;-)
21:51 darling hehe, I got in trouble at work for using my real name as my irc nick so changed it to that
21:52 ricardo darling: ...and then you chose another nick that can get you in all other sorts of trouble. Nice! ;-)
21:55 ricardo darling: I'm just joking, of course :)
21:56 chris he's on the phone :)
21:56 * chris works about 10 metres away from darling
21:58 moodaepo @wunder 56001

22:08 chris heya cait
22:08 cait hi chris :)
22:08 cait reading logs
22:11 chris was a pretty quiet meeting (i wasnt there but read the logs too)
22:13 cait was sitting in the garden with my father
22:14 cait so got a bit distracted :)
22:14 jcamins_a cait: I don't blame you. A garden sounds wonderful.
22:14 jcamins_a Especially if it's not horribly humid.
22:15 cait it is quite small, because the house is in the old part of the city, but its very green :)
22:15 cait and we had wine too
22:16 * jcamins_a is very jealous. There's very little green where he lives in New York.
22:21 cait Konstanz has a great countryside and the lake of course, but I have no garden or balcony, so I enjoy the garden here when visiting my family
22:22 jcamins_a A countryside sounds nice too.
22:25 cait :)
22:25 cait I think living in NY has its own advantages
22:25 jcamins_a Yes, but it helps if you like cities. ;)
22:27 cait http://www.konstanz-tourismus.de/ tourism site of konstanz - pictures :)
22:32 cait ok, time to sleep :) bye all
22:32 chris night cait
22:32 jcamins_a Good night.
22:33 cait ah, before I forget: chris++ for your help on my patch(es) :)
22:34 chris np
22:35 cait learning a lot by fixing those bugs, hope it will help me with my bigger projects too :)
22:43 ricardo Running off as well... Take care, everyone! :)
23:44 * owen-away votes Konstanz for the next Koha conference
23:45 chris :)
23:45 chris it probably is europes turn again
23:47 owen-away Or maybe Bodo, Norway?
23:52 chris that would be sweet
