22:46 nengard     gmcharlt - i wsn't sure how to make it more better :) will read the link
22:44 gmcharlt    see http://lists.koha-community.org/pipermail/koha-patches/2010-October/012753.html
22:44 gmcharlt    nengard: your patch for 5326 could be even moar better and go directly to the pref
22:43 * gmcharlt  is going out in search of food
22:20 sekjal      I think I've just done the install wrong...
22:14 sekjal      thanks, that's the same model I've got... looking for differences....
22:13 gmcharlt    the last RedirectMatch likely isn't relevant
22:13 sekjal      thanks
22:13 sekjal      ah

22:12 pastebot    "gmcharlt" at 74.179.111.229 pasted "site conf for a gitweb" (16 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/86
22:12 sekjal      paste.workbuffer.org not up?

22:12 sekjal      but when I enable it, all my sites on the server fail
22:11 sekjal      I have a file
22:11 sekjal      well, I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing wrong
22:11 gmcharlt    sekjal: go for it, what's your questin?
22:10 sekjal      if anyone has experience with the httpd.conf for GitWeb, I'd be happy for an assist.  I'm vexed

20:04 nengard     i too did this in trainig - this was of course in 3.2 beta - not 3.2 final
20:04 nengard     if you changed the value in that preference it showed either 2 or 3 pages
20:03 nengard     cait is saying she showed it in training and it was working (not more than 3 weeks ago)

20:01 nengard     cait saw that you removed the OrderPdfTemplate preference and she (and I) think that it's actually used ...

17:15 brendan     @wunder 93117
16:07 brendan     there are helpful instructions on the wiki -->  http://wiki.koha-community.org
16:07 dafydd      Ah, so I can git update
16:07 brendan     if so you should be able to update the install using git to pull the latest 3.2
16:06 brendan     if you do - the VM and Koha may have been installed via git
16:06 dafydd      I didn't have time to port-forward SSH too :-P
16:06 brendan     sorry not director but directory
16:06 dafydd      don't know - I'm at work right now
16:06 brendan     on the command line?
16:06 dafydd      sweet :-)
16:06 brendan     dafydd - do you have a director titled kohaclone - in your install
16:06 owen        Yes
16:06 dafydd      That'd be my first migration - that'll export my MARC records too, right?
16:05 owen        Hm, maybe you just want to wait until he releases the updated 3.2 VM and migrate your database
16:04 dafydd      I used Kyle Hall's VM, so I should be able to do that through the Admin Controls in root, right?
16:04 dafydd      I'll probably do that tonight
16:04 owen        But that's neither here nor there. I don't know anything about SIP
16:03 owen        dafydd: I would recommend upgrading if you can. We just released 3.2
16:02 owen        Pretty much nobody is here right now :) Almost everyone is in New Zealand for KohaCon
16:02 dafydd      I was doing an integration a month ago or so and the line-endings for logins were LF instead of CR
16:02 dafydd      BTW, are any of the SIP maintainers in here?
16:00 dafydd      I'm going to get my CueCat working before I add more
15:59 dafydd      Just two books so far
15:59 dafydd      68.144.45.146
15:59 dafydd      I think it's 3.0
15:59 owen        That's great--version 3.2?
15:58 dafydd      Just set up my own Koha install at home - it's good stuff
15:57 dafydd      Hi owen
15:57 owen        Hi dafydd
15:52 brendan     bywater's website should be back up now.
15:52 brendan     sorry about that
14:36 rhcl        hey owen
14:31 owen        Hi rhcl
13:52 owen        From this side of it the sleeping thing looks pretty good
13:52 wizzy_m     ok going to give this sleeping thing a go. ttyl; )
13:19 wizzy_m     cool.
13:19 jcamins     Demo's up.
13:19 owen        Working
13:19 wizzy_m     well thats a bummer can u check the bywater hosted demo too plz?
13:18 wizzy_m     ok back
13:17 wizzy_m     brb
13:17 wizzy_m     could be that
13:17 * jcamins   goes to check if they were mentioned on slashdot
13:17 jcamins     Or they've been slashdotted.
13:17 jcamins     Nope, looks like the database is down.
13:17 wizzy_m     here
13:16 wizzy_m     ooo i thought it was the dns hee
13:15 munin       jcamins: The operation succeeded.
13:15 jcamins     @later tell brendan ByWater's website seems to be down.
13:13 jcamins     Okay, now I'm more confused.
13:11 jcamins     It must.
13:11 jcamins     Does the package install Zebra?
13:11 braedon|h   my bad
13:11 braedon|h   o, really?
13:10 jcamins     braedon|h: no, DOM is supposed to be the replacement, for authorities.
13:10 braedon|h   or something...
13:10 braedon|h   hasn't DOM been replaced by something else by default?
13:09 jcamins     We're using a deprecated module for Zebra?
13:09 jcamins     Ouch.
13:09 jcamins     Shouldn't we be installing the DOM module for Zebra?
13:09 braedon|h   more cat antics?
13:08 jcamins     This is odd.
13:08 jcamins     Ummm...
13:07 braedon|h   feat*
13:07 braedon|h   quite a feet of storytelling
13:07 braedon|h   Primer, on the other hand, makes perfect sense, on a number of different complexity levels
13:07 braedon|h   makes it very hard to actually make logical arguments
13:06 owen        Yeah, I wondered if it made sense if I thought harder about it
13:06 braedon|h   and most of the director's explanation has little to no backing in the actual film
13:06 braedon|h   it is rather mystical
13:06 braedon|h   the problem with DD is that it doesn't actaully make sense
13:05 braedon|h   hehe
13:05 owen        ...last week.
13:05 owen        I considered doing that after finally(!) seeing Donnie Darko.
13:05 owen        :D
13:05 * braedon|h spend nigh on 2 years in the Primer forums
13:04 kmkale      :)
13:04 braedon|h   arguing with idiots on IMDB
13:04 braedon|h   o, those were the days
13:04 owen        braedon|h: Like this? http://xkcd.com/386/
13:04 braedon|h   or sleep, for that matter, in my case
13:04 wizzy_m     hope you kbow where those kitty feet have been
13:03 kmkale      hehe
13:03 braedon|h   who can work when there is an internet to explore?
13:03 kmkale      now that thje office is empty I can really work. Or chat ;)
13:03 jcamins     The glass of water I keep by my bedside.
13:02 braedon|h   ... what was the water source?
13:01 jcamins     s/hae/have
13:01 jcamins     My cat spent several hours this morning flicking water in my face, so I can kind of relate (of course, in his defense, I really should hae been awake by then).
13:01 wizzy_m     my son is giggling in his sleep
13:01 * chris_n   thinks gmcharlt must be running a one-man hackfest ;-)
13:01 wizzy_m     its OK: )
13:01 jcamins_a   wizzy_m: sorry to hear you can't sleep.
13:00 wizzy_m     hey jcamins

12:49 kmkale      wizzy_m: :) too many sheeps or not enough in NZ?
12:49 gmcharlt    spud keeping you up?

03:10 ronald      hi
03:10 mason       hi ronald
03:09 brendan     later all
03:09 slef        bbl
03:06 sekjal      alright, all done for the night
03:03 bengard     slef is raising his hand
03:02 slef        I need to connect the other keypad to the phone
03:02 wizzyrea    that is to say, I'm impressed, I couldn't be that fast.
03:01 wizzyrea    nozzed. Nice one.
03:01 bengard     it's pretty well nozzed up
03:01 wizzyrea    i honestly can't believe how fast you are on that phone, slef. It's amazing.
03:01 bengard     I'm not sure glue would do the trick
03:00 slef        I'd've ripped it up and slung it by now, but that's just me :)
03:00 paul_p      slef, hdl fixing descartes setup ;-)
02:59 nengard     slef i agree! it's kind of annoying - but doesn't seem to bother him
02:59 brendan     ha
02:59 slef        someone get bengard some glue to repair that desk?
02:58 slef        laurenthd: descartes is in maint mode?
02:56 laurenthd   edits to apache config files.
02:55 laurenthd   I forgot to add edits.
02:55 wizzyrea    not just fast -- damn fast!
02:55 wizzyrea    lol: it's DAMN fast
02:54 slef        Plack::App::CGIBin
02:54 brendan     :)
02:54 laurenthd   thx brendan
02:53 brendan     the p jumped on the front for me
02:52 brendan     http://git.biblibre.com/?p=koha;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/wip_Plack
02:50 * slef      tries to find that
02:50 laurenthd   or Phttp://git.biblibre.com/?p=koha;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/wip_Plack
02:50 slef        I have not easy web browsing from irc just now.
02:49 slef        so that example is not the only way?
02:49 laurenthd   descartes.biblibre.com:5000/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl for instance
02:48 laurenthd   we donot have to rewrite koha.
02:48 slef        paul_p: yeah, but only in size because real usb Amps is too low, no?
02:48 slef        Ok, was I just distracted by phones while he explained why this isn't like mod_perl and having to rewrite koha?
02:47 paul_p      slef usb to phone is the rule in UE since last month (or something like that) = all cellphone must use usb standard. ecology++ & sustainable++
02:47 laurenthd   slef: I have so many things to hack on ;) Do you have any preference ?
02:46 darling     slef, freaky
02:46 darling     i'll experiment w/that
02:45 nengard     darling i also didn't use it for more than 3 hours .... just fyi ... i can usually get close to 4 hours if i put the brightness down and just watch movies
02:45 slef        charge the laptop while it charges the phone
02:45 darling     my battery's good for about 2 hrs max
02:45 slef        cool thing: usb-to-phone charger
02:45 darling     wow
02:45 darling     't really think on airplanes anyway
02:45 nengard     i never had to charge my laptop - i didn't even kill the battery while on the plane
02:45 darling     can
02:45 darling     will use my kobo on the long flights
02:44 brendan     depends if you can charge the big-laptop on the planes though?
02:44 darling     unless that's the same as tri+edge
02:44 wizzyrea    because it *is* nice to have your real computer with you
02:44 chris       Its beer soon, then tomorrow I want to hack on stuff with people
02:44 sekjal      I really REALLY want to hear this one, so if everyone could take excellent notes....
02:44 darling     quad band I think
02:43 darling     was kind of the answer I wanted
02:43 sekjal      my apologies, all, but I've got to duck out of the room for a phone call
02:43 slef        darling: triband+edge?
02:43 darling     sold
02:43 darling     wizzyrea, good idea
02:43 slef        laurenthd: is there stuff we could hack?
02:43 wizzyrea    then I"d pack the big lappy, and use the phone for the little stuff.
02:43 darling     wizzyrea,  -- if I can get a sim card, yeah
02:43 chris       I'm conserving energy :)
02:42 chris       Its all hacking all the time tomorrow
02:42 wizzyrea    hmm. You have a smartphone that will work in the states?
02:42 brendan     wow giants blow it open 6-0 same inning
02:41 darling     question for recent travellers -- should I haul my gigantic but useful 4core laptop w/me on my next north america visit (sunday) or my pocket sized but elegant email checker netbook with the 6hr battery life? I'll have lot's of bored time visiting relatives and loads of separate flights.
02:41 laurenthd   slef: do you want us to go somewhere ?
02:41 slef        anyone want a sweetie?
02:40 slef        most everyone is in the talks room, almost no collab hacking today
02:40 munin       nengard: Error: "is" is not a valid command.
02:40 nengard     munin is funny
02:40 chris       He=here
02:39 chris       And he comes the author of xml::simple and a bunch of other modules we use
02:38 munin       slef: Error: I haven't seen owen, I'll let you do the telling.
02:38 slef        munin: tell owen I just felt left out not messaging you.
02:37 slef        maybe hackfest talk requirement should be "tell most everyone one new thing"
02:37 munin       nengard: The operation succeeded.
02:37 nengard     @later tell owen i have been corrected - you already know about it :)
02:37 nengard     should have known
02:37 nengard     of course he does!!!
02:36 gmcharlt    nengard: pretty sure he knows about it - http://www.myacpl.org/koha/?p=463#comment-363
02:36 slef        paul_p++
02:35 munin       nengard: The operation succeeded.
02:35 nengard     @later tell owen you might like this - it was talked about at the hackfest http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/
02:35 brendan     unless we all git clone oourselves
02:35 slef        broken? not when I try stuff from old list posts, but YMMV
02:35 paul_p      slef : back to infinite_time ;-)
02:34 slef        old mmm koha does not move as fast as sekjal's lovely ideas
02:34 chris       At least my stuff is now broken
02:34 slef        scattered ack
02:33 chris       Because its scattered and old and mostly broken
02:33 paul_p      chris, agreed ! (and I learned some things today anyway, on PostgreSQL for example)
02:33 jwagner     I thought sekjal had a lot of good ideas.  We've done some work in some of those areas, but certainly a lot more could be done.
02:33 slef        chris: why don't ppl look at the work already done? => less time repeating our work, more time to try helpful stuff
02:33 jwagner     Considering how many people in the room know that,I'm disappointed that no one pointed that out.
02:32 chris       It will be, but ppl came from solomons and pakistan for this, nice to have stuff for them too
02:32 jwagner     To clarify wizzyrea's comments beginning at http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2010-10-29#i_528527 -- I actually made no comments at all during sekjal's presentation.
02:31 paul_p      slef, agreed !
02:31 paul_p      chris, agreed, /me really hoping tomorrow & sunday will be more decision oriented days !
02:31 * laurenthd nods
02:31 slef        paul_p: I think we have fcgi or speedy in places, but koha needs more cleaning to use more

02:29 nengard     is owen here? he might like http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/ - he loves firebug
02:29 darling     ah -- I still need to catch up w/current koha
02:29 slef        robin-: ssl: yeah, well, it's not a real proxy, so no ssl cert

02:28 darling     i want

02:28 paul_p      slef, are you not anymore ?
02:28 darling     chris, yeah, house org to prevent jj from killing me before we head off
02:28 wizzyrea    you missed sekjal's epic "dreams for koha" talk
02:28 robin-      CGI is a real issue
02:28 slef        paul_p: only if you're running it in cgi mode still
02:28 darling     did I miss anything?
02:28 chris       Did you bail home darling?
02:28 robin-      Err
02:27 robin-      paul_p: the start/ shutdown overhead from chi
02:27 laurenthd   paul_p: not only
02:27 slef        mmm, here we go... cgi is default, so we must know stuff all about performance
02:27 nengard     did i spell that right?
02:27 nengard     slef - bengard might need your expertice :)
02:26 paul_p      well... isn't our main perf limit caused by being in CGI mode ?
02:26 robin-      slef: doesn't support SSL :(
02:26 nengard     didn't realize i did it
02:26 nengard     LOL
02:26 wizzyrea    crikey
02:26 slef        nengard: is that why you're sat right up blocking the screen?
02:26 wizzyrea    er more than
02:26 wizzyrea    you might get less than a metaphorical slap with a trout
02:25 nengard     :)
02:25 nengard     slef behind me - got to make sure i don't type about him
02:25 slef        robin-: no breaking my tunnel, man
02:24 * slef      moves
02:24 wizzyrea    it's not warmish over here
02:24 slef        Why's it so hot in the hacklab?
02:23 slef        no, we need to be clean for persistance (=enable performance) but not force it.
02:22 slef        and for leaving people to configure apache
02:22 chris       Yeah we need to fix that
02:22 slef        we suck for cgi being the default still
02:22 sekjal      back to blogging....

01:49 jcamins_a   I am not sure if it's because I'm tired or because y'all are also talking, but I cannot follow this conversation at all.
01:47 slef        so why debate it again? round and round and round
01:47 laurenthd   The problem is that when you look at the code, it still has scars of old times.
01:47 gmcharlt    slef: yes, I believe so
01:47 slef        maybe that decision was lost in the wiki move
01:46 slef        I'm pretty sure we decided to use ODLIS terms by default a while ago?
01:46 magnus      just don't butcher any kiwis! ;-)
01:46 slef        like debating patron/member/borrower
01:45 laurenthd   butcher the wiki ?

01:45 cait        sekjal: cool!

01:45 slef        laurenthd: something back in 2.x
01:44 slef        I'm seriously temopted to go off and butcher the wiki to remove stuff, but I want to hear sekjal's forward-looking talk.
01:44 laurenthd   slef: which patch ?
01:43 laurenthd   gmcharlt: I agree.
01:42 magnus      slef++
01:42 slef        It's not like we need more tools to whinge at us. We need more tools to help us fix stuff.
01:42 sekjal      Possible directions for Koha 4.0
01:41 cait        sekjal: what is your presentation about?
01:41 brendan     sekjal++ #for a good presentation coming :)
01:39 slef        it's bad for perl, being dominated by one gatekeeper
01:39 magnus      yep
01:38 slef        magnus: yeah, they dominate perl in particular
01:38 gmcharlt    laurenthd: but certainly we can make a good bit of progress for 3.4, if not close it outright
01:38 magnus      as well as my head ;-)
01:38 magnus      my office shelf would be rather empty, then...
01:37 slef        tip ORA in it
01:37 slef        you know the crack in time in Dr Who? that erases stuff from history?
01:37 wizzyrea    are you feeling a bit stabby, slef?
01:37 wizzyrea    ooo
01:36 * slef      would shoot most of the animal books if he could
01:36 slef        oh goody an OReilly advert
01:35 slef        mmm, I thought last time I tried to enforce a rule (sql placeholders), laurenthd flamed me, but maybe I misremember
01:35 magnus      hehe
01:35 wizzyrea    lol
01:35 laurenthd   ;)
01:35 laurenthd   first time ever someone tells me i am optimistic
01:34 nengard     no more clicking the wrong link
01:34 nengard     koha.org gone from history
01:34 nengard     slef++
01:34 gmcharlt    laurenthd: that's a little optimistic - work on that bug is at most 50% done
01:33 laurenthd   slef: it can be nearly closed.
01:33 nengard     yeah that's a problem with bugzilla
01:33 gmcharlt    gcollum has done rather a lot with that, of course
01:33 laurenthd   slef: it has been there for a while.
01:33 gmcharlt    because while I am certainly doing some work on that bug (see my bug2505), I assuredly hope that I'm not the only one working on it
01:33 nengard     anyone know how to delete a subset of urls from your firefox browser history-i don't want to wipe it all, just urls that are no longer valid -- aka koha.org
01:32 wizzyrea    no clue
01:32 slef        why is that NEW not ASSI?
01:32 sekjal      I'm going to stay seated, since I've got such an optimal spot
01:32 munin       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=2505 major, P3, ---, gmcharlt, NEW, enable Perl warnings in all modules and scripts
01:32 wizzyrea    bug 2505
01:32 slef        stumbling block is making it easy for people
01:32 nengard     i might have to come take your seat to blog effectively
01:31 sekjal      hopefully my talk won't be complete fluff
01:31 slef        we have thought about whether we want to
01:31 sekjal      thanks, nengard!
01:31 slef        I feel a bit like I've had 2 talks saying we're doing stuff wrong or should be running neater code in the cloud
01:30 sekjal      I think Donovan just wants us to have a more rigourous set of rules... or at least think about whether we want to
01:29 slef        cmon sekjal give us an uplifting talk!
01:29 slef        maybe, yes
01:29 nengard     sekjal i'll do it of course
01:29 wizzyrea    should probably be moved/rewritten
01:28 slef        the CG wiki page is only partial... rest is on kohadocs
01:28 wizzyrea    understandable
01:28 wizzyrea    oh, I don't think he's saying that, just wanting us to not wipe the history
01:27 slef        hrm, apparently not
01:26 slef        so is this guy not liking our current style guidelines?
01:25 sekjal      hopefully that'll be alright
01:25 sekjal      It's going to be a much less techie talk than previous.
01:25 sekjal      I'm up after Donovan.  Anyone willing to blog me?

00:58 slef        sekjal: yeah, main list I think... 1mo
00:53 laurenthd   slef: cant see that email you point
00:53 wizzyrea    blast missed owen again
00:52 sekjal      is this on the list?
00:48 slef        ?
00:47 slef        someone with a decent keyb want to reply poitively to that
00:46 slef        from the dbj college workshop report
00:46 slef        Sourceforge soon.
00:46 slef        distributed to all the participants. This LiveCD will be uploaded to

00:46 slef        Prof. Prasad, DRTC, Bangalore has created a LiveCD with Koha-3.02.00 &
00:43 wizzyrea    oops
00:43 wizzyrea
00:40 slef        np
00:39 wizzyrea    sorry I misunderstood
00:39 wizzyrea    oh oh yes
00:39 slef        yeah but someone needs to make/maintain/test the turnkey thing?
00:38 wizzyrea    yep, catalyst has the charge on that atm I think
00:38 slef        they won't stay up to date by themselves... it  needs to be resourced and maybe automated
00:34 wizzyrea    depends on whether the packages stay up to date I guess
00:34 slef        me neither... not sure how we'd resource this... might it become stale like win32?
00:33 wizzyrea    at least I haven't
00:33 wizzyrea    the original time we visited it was probably in 2008, afaik nobody's looked at it since then
00:32 slef        also a 2008 ubuntu?
00:32 slef        it looks a bit risky, given that libs seem freedom-ignorant sometimes, but support needs freedom to be sustainable
00:30 wizzyrea    more*
00:30 wizzyrea    maybe not anymroe
00:30 wizzyrea    it can be downloaded to a CD iirc
00:30 wizzyrea    it doesn't have to be run on amazon
00:30 slef        why run it on amazon's saas?
00:30 slef        why not just build a livecd with the debs?
00:28 sekjal      download, and run on VM or burn to disc and load on a machine
00:28 sekjal      we can create a fully functional Koha appliance
00:28 wizzyrea    http://www.turnkeylinux.org/
00:28 slef        sekjal: whassat?
00:27 wizzyrea    rather looks that way doesn't it
00:27 sekjal      so, now that we have a .deb package, time to revisit TurnKey Linux?
00:25 wizzyrea    it's pretty epic
00:24 brendan     seems pretty awesome
00:23 brendan     ah cool I've mucked with it a little bit
00:23 sekjal      it's awesome.  can't wait to play
00:23 slef        http://debian.koha-community.org being demo'd
00:22 brendan     yay!
00:22 slef        and we're back
