04:01 chris      hey rachel
04:03 rachel     hi chris
04:03 chris      get a cupcake?
04:04 rachel     and everyone else :-)
04:04 rachel     I did thanks - man that was some run on the neo cupcakes
04:04 robin      chris: actually, a jquery upgrade to 1.4.2 might be a good first-thing for 3.4 development, so that way there's plenty of time to find and fix issues.
04:05 chris      yeah, good idea robin
04:05 * rachel   is trawling for PR Fodder - big/interesting/important libraries using Koha
04:05 rachel     the ones in brazil?
04:05 chris      ahh
04:05 chris      Delhi public
04:05 chris      i use that one often
04:05 robin      chris: it's a bit of a trip there
04:06 rachel     what was the national library -
04:06 chris      rachel: http://bpraweb.puntobiblio.com/  <-- argentinian national library
04:06 chris      http://fpl.apkn.org/  <-- a bunch of african countries parliamentary libraries
04:07 chris      http://www.librarytechnology.org/lwc-ils-marketshare.pl?Country=France&Type=Public
04:07 chris      check out the second graph there
04:07 rachel     Bonza thank you
04:08 rachel     and is that just biblibre?
04:08 chris      thats just for france
04:08 chris      so yeah, just biblibre
04:08 chris      tis pretty cool that by number of libraries its the 2nd most used library system
04:09 rachel     Yeah nice
04:09 chris      for a nice image
04:10 chris      http://www.librarytechnology.org/map.pl?ILS=Koha
04:10 chris      screenshot of that might be cool
04:10 chris      (takes a while to load)
04:10 rachel     cheers
04:11 robin      funny how there's no Canada on that map
04:11 robin      oh,
04:11 robin      no, I was looking at the wrong line
04:14 chris      heh
04:29 * rachel   waves to Paul
07:22 chris      evening
07:22 paul_p     hi chris & al
07:23 magnus     hiya chris, paul_p & #koha
08:21 jransom    Reminder: Koha Committee Meeting 9am NZ time 31st August.
08:55 cait       hi #koha
08:56 chris      hi cait
08:58 magnus     hi cait
09:20 cait       hi chris and magnus :)
09:41 Amit       heya cait, davi
09:44 cait       hi Amit
09:47 davi       hi Amit
09:48 davi       Have been the AGPLv3+, GPLv3+, and <stay as now> re-licensing options
09:49 davi       already added to wiki or somewhere to review
09:49 davi       and later vote
09:49 davi       ?
12:35 magnus     wow http://www.whois.net/whois/koha-community.us :-(
12:37 cait       :
12:37 cait       :(
12:43 wasabi     ... considering that PTFS still wont publicly acknowledge kc.org, they seem busy registering many kc.org DNS variations
12:44 wasabi     $ whois koha-community.net
12:44 wasabi     $ whois koha-community.com
12:44 wasabi     $ whois kohacommunity.org
12:45 wasabi     all registered to PTFS, all point to nowhere... :(
12:46 magnus     as opposed to koha-community.biz, registered by calyx, which points to koha-community.org
12:47 magnus     oh well, must try not to waste too much adrenalin on it...
12:47 wasabi     yes, correct magnus!
12:47 schuster   good idea.
12:48 wasabi     i discovered this myself on satuday
12:48 cait       *sighs*
12:48 wasabi     i think its worth a discussion on the koha lists, myself
12:49 wasabi     people need to know this stuff david
12:49 schuster   I don't disagree...
12:50 wasabi     its not OK or 'just business', its unacceptable behavior
12:50 cait       wasabi: it makes me sad, I am past angry
12:50 cait       ok, time to go for me, I get my new passport for nz today :)
12:51 cait       bye all
12:51 magnus     bye cait
12:52 wasabi     cool, see you soon :)
12:52 paul_p     wasabi, it's better to have koha-community.com /us/net pointing nowhere tha pointing to koha.org !
12:52 paul_p     and every irc regular knows that we can't trust ptfs managers (but can trust ptfs developers, that are on the channel everyday)
12:53 magnus     yeah, i don't envy the developers...
12:54 paul_p     right ! fortunatly, ptfs if a "big" company, so devs have no daily relations with the boss... (fortunatly, or unfortunatly, hélas...)
12:56 wasabi     i imagine PTFS management are still deciding if they will redirect their kc.org variants back to koha.org, and get away with it...
13:03 wasabi     paul_p:  i dont trust anyone that works for a company that is blatantly attempting to destabilize the project, period
13:05 paul_p     wasabi, you can trust jwagner  & druthb when they ask or give help. And i't always a technical things. Because they are devs & really don't know anything about the strategy their bosses does or plans.
13:05 paul_p     @jwagner++
13:05 munin      paul_p: Error: "jwagner++" is not a valid command.
13:05 paul_p     jwagner++
13:05 paul_p     druthb++
13:06 jcamins    Morning, #koha
13:17 wasabi     paul_p:  i think they *do* know about the strategy/plans of their bosses
13:17 wasabi     i mean, we all know...
13:18 wasabi     you/me, everyone else that cares, and wants to be informed about whats happening
13:18 paul_p     wasabi, nope, we don't know. We see what they do, we listen what they say, we read what they write, but ... it's inconsistent : facts are not related to writings or speech. So we don't know. The only thing we know is that we can't trust them...
13:19 ivanc      hi all
13:19 wasabi     heya ivanc
13:19 * paul_p   realize wasabi is mason who loves sushis... ;-)
13:20 wasabi     yeah, click ;)
13:20 wasabi     thats why i know...
13:21 wasabi     ... as i worked for liblime, so i was privy to a lot of internal email and info
13:22 paul_p     LL <> ptfs, jane (that I met in Dallas) told me it's much different in ptfs.
13:22 paul_p     it's really a top-down management.
13:22 * sekjal   is catching up on all the latest news... ::sigh::
13:23 wasabi     oh, heya sekjal
13:23 sekjal     hey, wasabi
13:25 wasabi     PTFS aggressiveness to liblime seemed to work successfully
13:25 wasabi     ... in that liblime sold-out to PTFS
13:26 wasabi     its just a pity that PTFS seem to be applying the same aggressive-method to the koha-project itself
13:26 paul_p     wasabi, are you sure ll sold-out ? isn't it also a problem of kados behaviour ? when you resigned, it was not due to ptfs iirc !
13:26 wasabi     i didnt resign sweetie ;)
13:27 paul_p     ???
13:28 wasabi     sweetie means 'dear friend'
13:28 wasabi     NZ slang
13:30 wasabi     anyhoo, back to some work now....
13:30 paul_p     wasabi, yes, I understand sweetie.
13:30 wasabi     ah
13:30 paul_p     what I don't understand is "i didn't resign" !
13:30 * paul_p   thought you all 3 resigned !
13:31 wasabi     aah, well... i didnt :)
13:31 wasabi     no, just 2
13:31 paul_p     and you ? you were fired ?
13:31 wasabi     no :)
13:31 paul_p     so you're still a LLer :D
13:31 wasabi     i was..  'let go'
13:32 paul_p     wow... 'let go' does not exist in france :D
13:32 wasabi     i werked for 1 extra month, to help complete some client go-lives
13:35 wasabi     ok.... happy cybersquatting people, im off
13:35 sekjal     later, wasabi!
13:36 ivanc      hi wasaby :)
13:36 wasabi     paul_p:  i notice 'biblibre.co.nz' is current available for purchase!
13:36 wasabi     $ whois biblibre.co.nz
13:36 paul_p     lol
13:37 wasabi     hmmm, where is my visa-card?!?!?!!!
13:37 wasabi     omg!
13:37 wasabi     ha ha , i joke ;)
13:37 * paul_p   comes to NZ in oct. Why do you think I come? I'm on the way to buy catalist. and next year, we will buy google & maybe microsoft too
13:37 wasabi     and me too!
13:38 magnus     oh no, paul_p is loosing it... ;-)
13:42 ivanc      I've a problem with the creation of different language ( opac )  italian and german
13:42 ivanc      I've try with this : ./tmpl_process3.pl install -i /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/prog/en -o /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/prog/it-IT -s /usr/share/koha/misc/translator/po/it-IT-i-opac-t-prog-v-3000000.po
13:42 ivanc      but without success any idea?
13:49 magnus     ivanc: not sure i have any ideas, but what version are you running and do you get any error messages?
13:50 ivanc      manguns: the koha version is the 3.00.06
13:50 ivanc      i try to run it in /usr/share/koha/misc/translator
13:51 ivanc      and the error is Use of uninitalized value in hash element ( the same error ) if i download the .po files from internet
13:52 ivanc      the directory /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/prog/it-IT is empty
14:02 magnus     hm, afraid i can't be of much help there... maybe someone else?
14:06 ivanc      magnus tnks: the question is, this is the right command to create/generate more languages?
14:09 magnus     ivanc: i think so. there is a new script called just translate in HEAD: http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=tree;f=misc/translator;h=a1148338c21b58faa71a579d25f01e3e96a6e5a9;hb=HEAD but this is not in 3.00.06: http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=tree;f=misc/translator;h=087f7ffff12e319a9c7b6d0661a5572a99aa6244;hb=d80033f567b32eb018c3ecefba02e537877b401d
14:12 ivanc      magnus: tnks ! is sensate to try in my version?
14:14 magnus     tmpl_process3.pl should work on 3.00.06...
14:20 ivanc      magnus: tnks
14:21 nengard    anyone want to come over and get me a snack? :)
14:25 magnus     sure! ;-)
14:26 jcamins    nengard: depends... is there enough for me to have a snack too? ;)
14:26 nengard    absolutely
14:26 nengard    :)
14:26 nengard    plenty of food in the house - just too much effort for me to get up and get it back to a seat when on crutches :)
14:27 jcamins    Then I'd be happy too.
14:27 jcamins    Sadly I'm in NYC and I can't leave the library unattended.
14:27 nengard    LOL
14:27 nengard    it's just a 2 hour train ride :) 4 hours of a closed library
14:28 wizzyrea   jcamins: how was the wedding?
14:28 nengard    alright .. up I get ... be back eventually :)
14:28 jcamins    wizzyrea: Wonderful!
14:28 wizzyrea   |o?
14:28 wizzyrea   \o/
14:28 wizzyrea   I mean
14:28 wizzyrea   (yay)
14:28 jcamins    I was wondering what that was.
14:29 wizzyrea   it's a lil person with their arms up "YAY!"
14:31 jcamins    Yeah, I recognized the second one.
14:31 jcamins    The ring is going to take a while to get used to, though, I think.
14:32 magnus     congrats! you get used to it, eventually... ;-)
14:32 jcamins    As is the word "wife."
14:32 jcamins    Thanks.
14:38 nengard    it's actually surprising how quickly it becomes the norm - both the ring and the new labels :)
14:39 nengard    and congrats from me too :)
14:39 jcamins    I can see how that could be... it wasn't much of an adjustment to go from "girlfriend" to "fiancee" in December.
14:39 jcamins    Thanks.
14:41 nengard    also - how did I not know you were so close jcamins?
14:42 nengard    I'm terrible at remembering names and locations ;) hehe
14:43 jcamins    Well, when we met a few years ago, I had just returned to the States from Afghanistan.
14:44 jcamins    A lot of people associate me with "far away," after my many jaunts abroad. ;)
14:51 jcamins    Oh, by the way, if anyone finds they want a very simple "Image library" feature integrated into Koha, there's a branch in my github repository.
14:53 jcamins    "Image library" makes it sound like a much fancier feature than it is.
14:53 jcamins    If anyone needs a feature that adds the display of images listed in 856's to Koha, there is a branch in my github repository.
14:53 jcamins    ^ better description
15:04 mib_gjeh2  Hello - would anyone help me with a strange slowness problem when opening a record in the admin page?
15:10 ivanc      mib_gjeh2: I do not know if I can help you, but I'm here, I am not a developer Koha, but I'm trying to use
15:17 mib_gjeh2  Thanks! Basically, when we login to the Admin client and run a search the first screen comes back fine. However, if we select any title the next screen takes about 60 seconds to open!
15:20 nengard    jcamins that sounds like a neat feature - you should submit it to HEAD
15:20 nengard    mib_jhej2 i think someone on list said to try and disable javascript to speed things up ... but i might be mixing up things i've read (my head is on cold meds right now)
15:21 wizzyrea   I wonder what kind of hardware you are running on mib_gjeh2
15:22 jcamins    nengard: I plan on submitting all my changes, although it may take a bit.
15:22 nengard    cool (not the taking a bit part - but the submitting part) :)
15:26 jcamins    I believe very strongly in open source. And more practically, I like it when people who are smarter than I am improve features I want. ;)
15:26 mib_gjeh2  Its a bog standard i686 debian install on a HP DL 380 G4 server
15:26 mib_gjeh2  32 it
15:26 mib_gjeh2  bit
15:27 wizzyrea   have you tried disabling the javascript?
15:27 wizzyrea   (because otherwise it might be a mysql performance thign)
15:27 wizzyrea   thing*
15:27 mib_gjeh2  no....can you help me out there? Is that on the client side?
15:27 wizzyrea   yep, in your web browser
15:27 wizzyrea   also, IE or firefox or chrome or...
15:27 wizzyrea   what are you using?
15:28 mib_gjeh2  firefox....had problem with IE so only firefox
15:28 wizzyrea   http://www.alanwood.net/demos/enabling-javascript.html
15:29 mib_gjeh2  its a very small database to be a mysql issue, I think!
15:29 wizzyrea   http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBIQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fmistered.us%2Ftips%2Fjavascript%2Ffirefox.shtml&ei=wtB7TJm2OIXKnAe-_pydCw&usg=AFQjCNHknicF-aivpMDDhkG-AyGE9dQ6rA
15:29 wizzyrea   yikes
15:29 wizzyrea   http://mistered.us/tips/javascript/firefox.shtml
15:29 wizzyrea   is nicer
15:31 mib_gjeh2  OK, I will take a look......thanks
15:55 cait       hi again #koha
15:56 rhcl_kell  Hello!
15:56 jcamins    Hello cait
15:56 cait       hi rhcl_kell and jcamins :)
15:57 rhcl_kell  Today our library is going live with Koha!
15:57 * wizzyrea cheers
15:57 jcamins    Yay!
15:57 wizzyrea   congrats :)
15:57 * druthb   waves to cait
15:59 cait       hi druthb :)
16:00 jcamins    cait: did you get your passport?
16:00 cait       yep
16:00 cait       with an ugly biometric photo in it :)
16:06 jcamins    That's the best kind.
16:07 jcamins    I got one of the last non-"smart" passports from the US.
16:07 mib_gjeh2  Hey,. I tried disabling Javascript in the browser but the problem remains!
16:11 wizzyrea   bummer.
16:11 wizzyrea   do you have xslt detail display on or off?
16:11 jcamins    mib_gjeh2: I don't really have any suggestions, but what version of Koha are you using?
16:11 wizzyrea   in your system preferences?
16:12 jcamins    And are you using Zebra?
16:12 mib_gjeh2  3.0.05 - can't upgrade just due to OS issues
16:13 jcamins    OS issues?
16:13 mib_gjeh2  Yes, we are using Zebra....was thinking or rebuilding the indexes but not sure that would make a difference.
16:13 mib_gjeh2  Sorry, more OS dependancies
16:13 mib_gjeh2  modules that Koha above 3.0.05 require conflict with other modules running on the system
16:13 jcamins    Ah.
16:14 wizzyrea   oh, never mind. 3.0.6 doesn't have the xslt detail display in the intranet (I think)
16:14 mib_gjeh2  3.0.5?
16:14 wizzyrea   or whatever 3.0.x version
16:14 wizzyrea   you are using
16:15 wizzyrea   how many items do you have on this bib?
16:15 wizzyrea   lots?
16:15 mib_gjeh2  Ah.....wondering about the index rebuild? Or the mysql preformance issues, are there any housekeeping tips you can recommend?
16:16 mib_gjeh2  It's any bib, not just one......all bibs take the same time to display
16:16 wizzyrea   the indexing should only affect the results
16:16 jcamins    mig_gjeh2: how long have you had the server running?
16:16 wizzyrea   do they all have lots of items on them? (lots = more than 100)
16:16 jcamins    I'm wondering if it could be the session table.
16:16 wizzyrea   ^^
16:17 mib_gjeh2  A while, we did reboot today though - no change. No big bibs (certainly none near 100 items attached)
16:17 mib_gjeh2  session table?
16:17 mib_gjeh2  Should I trunc it?
16:17 jcamins    Yeah. Every single connection gets a row in the session table.
16:17 jcamins    That's what I was going to suggest.
16:17 mib_gjeh2  does it purge on reboot?
16:17 jcamins    I think there's a script that can do that for you.
16:17 jcamins    No, it's persistent.
16:17 mib_gjeh2  is it a system table or a koha table?
16:18 jcamins    misc/cronjobs/cleanup_database.pl
16:18 mib_gjeh2  NICE!
16:18 jcamins    It's a Koha table.
16:18 mib_gjeh2  I will take a look, sounds like it might be promising! - thanks!
16:18 jcamins    Actually, use that to clean up the zebraqueue, too, while you're at it.
16:18 jcamins    We had problems when our zebraqueue had 500k rows.
16:19 mib_gjeh2  will do......I shall let ye kind people know how I get on.......
16:19 jcamins    Good luck!
16:29 mib_gjeh2  Just a quick one......any suggestion on the number of days to use when doing the cleanup of Zebraqueue?
16:31 druthb     Most of our sites that use that feature use 7-10 days, mib_gjeh2.
16:37 mib_gjeh2  Thanks!
16:51 wizzyrea   what does the constrainttype field in the reserves table denote?
16:51 cait       wizzyrea: just guessing, show title level and item level holds?
16:52 wizzyrea   doesn't seem to
16:52 sekjal     wizzyrea: as far as I know, it's not used currently
16:52 wizzyrea   it looks to me like the only difference between an item level and a title level hold is that item levels start with an itemnumber
16:52 sekjal     it's just universally 'a', or it's broken
16:52 wizzyrea   where title levels start out with NULL
16:52 wizzyrea   sekjal: thanks
16:52 sekjal     wizzyrea: correct.
17:28 ivanc      tnks for all bye
17:28 jcamins    Does anyone happen to recall the standard for how tightly packed books should be on library shelves?
18:04 LibraryGu  Hullo
18:04 LibraryGu  How is progress on the 3.2 release?
18:08 gmcharlt   LibraryGu: awaiting a few final bug fixes
18:10 LibraryGu  Oh cool.
18:11 LibraryGu  I wonder if there will be a live install CD
18:20 gmcharlt   LibraryGu: yep, I imagine so
18:20 chris      wasabi++
18:22 LibraryGu  wasabi??
18:22 LibraryGu  Oh Ubuntu?
18:23 chris      no, its someones nickname, nothing to do with the live cd, i was just reading scrollback
19:17 * chris_n  decries the advent of more stupidity
19:23 * wizzyrea nods
19:30 LibraryGu  chris_n: whose?
19:31 chris_n    LibraryGu: a reference to what chris was reading that wasabi wrote about
19:32 chris      Back from the bus stop
19:33 LibraryGu  Cheeky
19:36 chris      Gotta love bip
19:39 jcamins    chris: Books-in-Print?
19:39 chris      Naw the software I'm using to do irc proxy
19:39 chris      Larsw put me on to it
19:39 jcamins    Ah.
19:41 jcamins    Whoops... looks like LC is having some encoding issues.
19:42 chris      Morning antisirk
19:42 chris      You are at work early
19:51 joetho     Hello Koha
19:52 anitsirk   hello chris and joetho. good morning. yep. got in early today. and as you can see, i can connect to the channel again. it wouldn't let me yesterday at all.
19:53 chris      Yeah I think I know why
19:53 chris      Too many from the same ip

20:09 joetho     but give the little guy his breakfast first.
20:10 chris      yes you can
20:10 wizzyrea   wooo!
20:10 * wizzyrea contemplates which of the fine local brews to pack to bring to chris ;)
20:10 wizzyrea   since I owe him a lot of beer
20:10 wizzyrea   a LOT
20:10 chris      you can bring as much as you want, but over a certain amount you have to pay duty
20:10 joetho     really. But no rutabega?
20:11 chris      Liquor: Six bottles (4.5 litres) of wine, port or sherry or 12 cans (4.5 litres) of beer. Plus three bottles (or other containers) each containing no more than 1125mls of spirits, liqueur, or other spirituous beverages.
20:11 chris      is the duty free allowance

20:12 wizzyrea   and peanut butter. lol.
20:12 wizzyrea   goldfish crackers.
20:16 anitsirk   yummy. unfortunately, you can't bring the carob bars from a coop with you as they are not sealed but sold loose.
20:18 chris      wizzyrea: laurel is off to the US next monday, so we wont need a huge peanut butter, and goldfish cracker supply, she will undoubtedly bring tons back :)
20:18 wizzyrea   hehehe

20:34 joetho     the Kansas Attorney General once arrested people on an airliner passing over Kansas because they were breaking the stringent Kansas liquor laws.
