Time Nick Message
00:06 dcook Yeah, that's a lot of what I do :p
00:07 dcook I'll be glad when I'm done this OAI client so I can upstream it
00:07 dcook Then hopefully work on upstreaming other changes... or work on fixing the query building
00:14 wizzyrea well it is just not every day you get a 500 error from youtube.
00:20 dcook oh nose
00:20 dcook someone broke the intertubes?
00:21 bag hey anyone have this problem? A SIP2 self-checkout isn't respecting the holidays entered on the calender (but like everything - it's sporadic - during time periods of the day)
00:21 dcook bag: Haven't heard anything but you never know...
00:21 bag hmmm... maybe the it's the time settings - you know JesseM like that 12hr vs 24hr
00:21 bag thing
00:22 bag nah probably not
00:54 dcook wizzyrea: In addition to having "OVerdue notice/status triggers" move from Tools to Admin, it would be great to move "Notices & slips" too
00:54 wizzyrea yes, agreed
00:54 wizzyrea and configuring holidays
00:55 dcook Actually, there's a fair number of "tools" that aren't tools
00:55 wizzyrea yes.
00:55 dcook It might make more sense to break up the administration area into more distinct sub-categories
00:55 dcook Rather than having one epic page
00:56 wizzyrea Notices & slips, overdue notice/status triggers, calendar, csv profiles, task scheduler
00:56 dcook The "Additional parameters" should probably be under "Catalog" as well..
00:56 wizzyrea well not the task scheduler
00:56 dcook The task scheduler is probably still a tool yeah
00:56 bag I love THE epic!
00:56 dcook hehe
00:56 wizzyrea if it's "set up" it should be in admin
00:57 wizzyrea if it's "manage" it should be a tool.
00:57 dcook ^
00:57 bag oh whoops dcook I was off topic :P
00:57 * wizzyrea thought of beer
00:57 dcook Mmm beer
00:57 wizzyrea which probably says something about my state of mind today.
00:57 dcook Although administration does imply administering
00:57 wizzyrea Administration -> Configuration
00:58 dcook Ooooh
00:58 dcook I like that
00:58 wizzyrea or Settings
00:58 wahanui Settings are in there
00:58 bag yeah beer sounds excellent - but I'm a month of no drinking which ends Saturday :D
00:58 dcook All stuff that should be done once really
00:58 wizzyrea well, nobody ever goes in there just once.
00:58 dcook True. Things get tweaked over time.
00:59 wizzyrea There would probably be a mutiny if we changed the name.
00:59 dcook Sadly yes :(
00:59 wizzyrea could do it in stages
00:59 wizzyrea move the tools, leave a message "hey, some things have moved, check in Administration"
01:00 wizzyrea remove the message, change the name of administration to "settings" or something.
01:00 wizzyrea only show the message to superlibrarians, etc.
01:00 wizzyrea force a news item "hey, we did stuff"
01:01 dcook Not a bad idea
01:02 wizzyrea good things about kombucha, it's tasty
01:02 dcook Although as long as the help and manual are up-to-date..
01:02 wizzyrea bad things about kombucha... slimy blobby things.
01:03 wajasu got to feed your motha
01:03 wizzyrea on a related note, I am now covered in kombucha.
01:03 wizzyrea because that was a texture my mouth disagreed with.
01:04 dcook lol
01:04 wajasu pour through a coffee filter if you don't like the growth
01:04 dcook Can't say I've ever had it. Not sure I want to.
01:04 wizzyrea wajasu: good advice
01:05 wizzyrea the one I'm having is feijoa flavoured, quite nice.
01:06 wajasu also if you want cheap grolsch style bottles to store it, look for some cheap similiar bottle at an ALDI (if you have them nearby)
01:09 bag alright later peeps - I'll be back for the meeting in a few hours - hopefully catch all you wonderful people tonight :D
01:10 wizzyrea this is a commercial one
01:10 * wizzyrea is not brave enough to make her own kombucha
01:12 ibeardslee Wow .. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kombucha ".. in rare cases, to serious side effects and deaths"
01:12 eythian from spillage?
01:12 wajasu imy 1st two batches got tainted and grew mold. smelled bad, so had to start over. third batch worked (used coffer filter over jar top). too much work and time.
01:13 eythian it sounds terrible
01:13 eythian and looks pretty gross too
01:13 wizzyrea I suspect this is why they put it in brown bottles.
01:14 wizzyrea this one I have is pretty ok though.
01:14 wizzyrea to be honest, I didn't realise it was a real kombucha when I bought it
01:14 wizzyrea I saw "feijoa" and my brain turned off.
01:15 wajasu i put my scoby in the fridge for next year :)
01:15 eythian did you get it from haere mai?
01:15 eythian that sounds like the sort of place you'd find something like that
01:15 wizzyrea no, from nic nacz
01:15 wizzyrea nic nacs
01:15 wizzyrea they have many kinds of strange drinks.
01:22 * dcook will stick to his water and iced tea he thinks
01:42 eythian http://search.cpan.org/~ferreira/Carp-Always-0.13/lib/Carp/Always.pm <-- oh handy
01:44 rangi ohh yes that is handy
01:54 schnydszch anybody here from biblibre?
01:54 rangi id doubt it, given the time
01:56 wizzyrea I certainly hope they are sleeping :)
01:56 schnydszch it's okay I wanted to feel attending koha meeting. If my timer is right, that's three hours away right?
01:56 wizzyrea 4 hours I think
01:57 eythian wasn't it at 6 NZ time? Or was it 7?
01:58 rangi it 0500 utc
01:58 rangi so i think thats 6pm nz time
01:58 rangi and the next one is at 2100
01:58 rangi we repeat them so people can attend one or the other
01:59 wizzyrea well gosh, when I said 4 hours I didn't realise it was 14:55, so you're right, 3 hours SORRY
01:59 rangi i liked it better when we were +12
01:59 rangi easier to work out
01:59 wizzyrea my brain computer is broken today.
02:00 * wizzyrea blames the kombucha
02:01 schnydszch it's 10AM here, so that's gonna be 1PM
02:02 schnydszch i saw that Kombucha wiki, when it says food and bacteria, did not read it further
02:02 wizzyrea hehe
02:09 eythian http://elasticsearch.koha.catalystdemo.net.nz/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl <-- there is now an elasticsearch server up and running
02:10 wizzyrea oh look at that it even works!
02:11 * dcook takes a gander
02:11 dcook "It's gonna be weird."
02:11 dcook hehe
02:12 dcook I really hope I'm able to find time someday to switch us over to using the QueryParser...
02:12 dcook Although I think that would make life potentially harder for eythian
02:12 dcook Or possibly easier I suppose
02:12 eythian hmm, well if you fit into my querybuilder api, then it's all good :)
02:13 dcook hehe
02:13 dcook I guess so
02:13 dcook I'm really keen to find a way to make QP work without requiring any syntactical changes in the templates
02:13 dcook (while also supporting the QP syntax)
02:14 dcook Or if I need to make those changes, I want to do them soon so that it's not an issue for ES
02:22 wizzyrea one thing I've noticed, search "fish" order by author a-z - why is Big Fish result 2?
02:22 mtj woah, awesome eythian :0)
02:22 eythian wizzyrea: because august comes after adams
02:22 eythian It's the alphabet ;)
02:23 wizzyrea mmm but why august and not wallace?
02:23 eythian Because it has multiple authors, and it's sorting them as well, I guess.
02:23 eythian (it splits them up for indexing.)
02:24 wizzyrea aha, interesting
02:24 wizzyrea I accept your explanation, assert that it will still befuddle librarians.
02:24 eythian oh, it sorts them according to the sort request
02:24 eythian so if you invert the sort, it comes first still
02:24 eythian probably because of Zanuck Company
02:25 wizzyrea hehe
02:25 dcook Tricksy
02:25 eythian well, it's not a terribly hard thing to change if we want to.
02:25 dcook Yeah, there's really no reason to privilege August over Wallace
02:25 cjh so it is always sorting by the best case, heh
02:25 eythian cjh: exactly
02:25 * eythian steals that phrasing
02:25 wizzyrea is that the kind of thing you want us to point out?
02:25 * wizzyrea wants to be helpful, and not annoying
02:26 eythian eventually perhaps, probably not right now
02:26 wizzyrea what is helpful now?
02:26 eythian I think it's more useful when almost everything is done and there's just polish needed
02:26 eythian hmm
02:26 eythian code that makes authority searching work ;)
02:27 wizzyrea what I'm hearing is "keep your grubby hands off of it and be quiet until I say do stuff"
02:27 wizzyrea in nicer words.
02:27 wizzyrea :)
02:27 eythian roughly :) though, I might create a thing for little weirdnesses like that, so do bring them to my attention.
02:27 eythian also like the broader/narrower/related subject searches not working
02:27 wizzyrea yeah, I noticed that one
02:27 eythian (which is odd, I thought I'd implemented that)
02:28 wizzyrea and I noticed there were no authority searches :P
02:28 eythian yeah, they should be getting indexed, but not searched yet
02:29 wizzyrea hm, this test data should be sure to have some items that aren't available
02:29 mtj interesting -> http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/analysis-lang-analyzer.html
02:29 eythian the database has no users currently, so that's tricky :)
02:29 eythian feel free to fix that if you want :)
02:29 wizzyrea I MAY JUST. :)
02:30 eythian mtj: I'd be interested in experimenting with that
02:30 mtj yeah, an impressive list already
02:34 dcook Hmm, how many records in this catalogue, eythian?
02:34 dcook ~500?
02:34 eythian 8679
02:34 eythian hmm
02:34 dcook Ahh
02:34 eythian 8639
02:34 dcook 8639
02:34 dcook Just tried a local-number:*
02:35 eythian the database count and the number indexed differ.
02:35 dcook Z for Zachariah, eh?
02:35 dcook Weird book
02:35 eythian That might be important
02:35 dcook Maybe :)
02:36 dcook Hmm, what sort of speed differences should there be?
02:36 dcook I'm getting 8639 results in about 5 seconds with ES
02:37 dcook Getting 19897 results in about 5 seconds with Zebra on a different system
02:37 eythian probably not much, koha itself will have a bigger overhead.
02:37 eythian this is not a production ES install running here :)
02:37 dcook Excellent
02:37 wizzyrea that probably has more to do with the hardware :P
02:37 dcook Those were my two thoughts as well :)
02:38 * dcook wants an extra server at work just for him to play with...
02:38 mtj eythian: wow, it looks like ES can use lucene lanaguage-analyzers too
02:38 dcook ES is pretty rad
02:38 eythian ES requires three servers for production
02:38 eythian well, a minimum of three
02:39 dcook ^I've been wondering about that
02:39 dcook Why's that?
02:39 eythian data safety, mostly
02:39 dcook I was just about to ask besides redundnacy
02:39 eythian it's less important for Koha where you can regenerate everything
02:39 eythian it'll also be faster under load
02:39 eythian well, that's just saying it'll scale better
02:39 eythian which it will
02:39 dcook Hence all the load balancing stuff you've been doing as well, eh?
02:40 dcook Would love that..
02:40 eythian Nah, ES does it automagically.
02:40 dcook Oooo :D
02:40 eythian That's planning for it in a cloudy cloud type environment
02:40 dcook I would love that for some of our million record catalogues..
02:40 dcook Righto
02:40 eythian yeah, it'd be good on them
02:41 eythian I'd like to make the indexer multithreaded to work well on big systems
02:41 dcook So in production you'd have three dedicated ES servers?
02:41 eythian I'm not going to just yet though
02:41 eythian yeah
02:41 eythian maybe not for koha, but in general for ES
02:42 eythian if we ever put things into ES that are only in ES, then definitely
02:42 dcook Yeah, using ES for storage would be interesting
02:42 dcook I think the paranoia in me would struggle with it a bit
02:43 dcook Yet not having records in a million places...
02:43 * dcook looks in biblioitems
02:43 dcook We still have the MARC blob, eh..
02:43 * dcook wishes that he could scale himself
02:43 dcook Three dedicated dcooks
02:44 eythian heh
02:44 eythian yes, we still have MARC there
02:44 dcook I can never remember what that one is for
02:55 dcook It's actually kind of neat harvesting records from several different Koha instances per day via OAI...
02:55 dcook Some might only add/edit a couple records, and some are crazy busy...
02:57 dcook Hmm... no idea why these records are getting selected now though..
02:59 dcook Mmm biblioitems timestamp isn't the same as the biblio timestamp
03:04 dcook bug 11891
03:04 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11891 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kyle, Pushed to Master , Make Koha::Schema use C4::Context->dbh
03:08 dcook bug 12725
03:08 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12725 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, m.de.rooy, Pushed to Master , Show RDA tag 264 on Intranet Results and Detail XSLT view (MARC21)
03:08 dcook Huh..
03:09 wizzyrea hm, if you turn off email in Koha, does it still email lists and things, or does it not send any email at all? Also, how did I not know this before.
03:10 dcook wizzyrea: That's a good question
03:10 dcook I mean the first question
03:10 wizzyrea hehe I read the intent of that :)
03:10 rangi lists will still go
03:11 eythian there are some things that don't use the mail queue
03:11 eythian some bad, naughty things
03:11 rangi anything that doesnt use the queue
03:11 rangi lists/carts
03:11 rangi i think is about it nowadays
03:11 eythian passwords
03:12 rangi ah yeah, we should just accidentally stop it sending those at all
03:12 rangi or at least timelimit them
03:12 wizzyrea passwords!
03:12 wizzyrea oh. right selfreg.
03:12 rangi self reg is tokens
03:12 rangi its the feature you can switch on
03:12 rangi for staff side
03:12 wizzyrea oh right
03:12 rangi that emails people when you make their account
03:12 rangi its bad wrong and evil
03:13 dcook bug 12725 looks weird...
03:13 * wizzyrea imagines rangi slipping with his code scalpel "oops I nuked your password sendy-thing!"
03:13 rangi but at least its off by default
03:13 wizzyrea yeah true.
03:13 wizzyrea so bad and wrong.
03:13 wizzyrea ok thank you all for your excellent advice.
03:13 * dcook doesn't want to know how many people have it turned on..
03:13 dcook The password thing not the 264 thing
03:14 rangi if you really wanted all mail off, you could switch off postfix :-)
03:14 wizzyrea suggestion mails I reckon wouldn't go out
03:14 wizzyrea those are queued.
03:14 wizzyrea and hold placed emails
03:14 rangi yeah
03:14 rangi yep
03:14 wizzyrea right thanks
03:16 dcook rangi: Did you get Koha::Email in?
03:16 dcook I thought I saw it the other day
03:17 rangi yep, it should be in master now
03:17 rangi all it does is handle the headers so far
03:17 rangi return path, reply to, from etc
03:17 rangi but it does it consistently
03:17 wizzyrea and boy do we like consistency
03:20 bag hola
03:20 wahanui niihau, bag
03:20 wajasu hopefully it will set the charset to utf8 for header Subject, and Attachment filename.
03:21 rangi yep
03:21 wajasu yeah!
03:26 dcook Coool beans :)
03:26 dcook Cool*
03:26 dcook No three Os in this house
03:26 dcook which is actually an office...
03:28 dcook All right, I'm going to experiment more with DBIC
03:28 dcook Whenever we talk about DBIC and kohastructure.sql, we say "for now", but I don't know if anyone is actually planning to deprecate kohastructure.sql...
03:35 dcook Hmm, not as automagical as one would hope
03:41 wizzyrea ^ probably explains it's lack of wide adoption
03:42 dcook Oh, I meant in terms of deploying the schema
03:42 dcook DBIC itself is actually pretty decent :)
03:42 dcook A bit scary at first
03:47 dcook Hmm, looks like the deploy() method generates the SQL...
03:48 dcook But that would just be to dump the whole schema I think
03:48 amit_ heya chris_n
03:48 amit_ hi rangi
03:49 dcook Oooh. I see that we have the Perl module there...
03:52 dcook No idea why we have a Koha::Schema and a Koha::Database...
03:53 AmitG chris around?
03:53 mtj hey #koha, is there a good koha-master for testing, on the webs?
03:53 AmitG hi mtj
03:54 mtj yo AmitG
03:55 mtompset Koha::Email?
03:55 mtj ill try the BL vm's - for a start
03:56 mtj does anyone have problems with the shelfbrowser in bootstrap, for non-EN langs?
03:56 mtj opac shelfbrowser, specifically
03:58 mtj the left/right buttons are giving me 500 errors
03:58 mtj "NetworkError: 500 Internal Server Error - http://mykohaxxx/cgi-bin/koha/svc/shelfbrowser.pl"
03:58 eythian that's not something I would expect bootstrap to cause
03:59 mtompset I would check log files if you are getting a 500.
03:59 eythian dcook: oh, apparently we are getting rid of biblioitems.marc
03:59 * mtj switches themes...
03:59 mtompset getting rid of biblioitems.marcxml?!
03:59 dcook eythian: sweeeet
04:00 mtompset how?
04:00 wajasu whoa!
04:00 eythian mtompset: try re-reading
04:00 dcook Darn, eythian
04:00 dcook I was going to say after we invert the OPAC
04:00 eythian heh
04:00 dcook Or dismantle the flux capacitor :p
04:00 eythian sorry :)
04:00 mtompset oh.
04:00 dcook Although getting rid of biblioitems.marcxml would be cool too...
04:00 * mtompset is pleased at a duplication removal.
04:01 dcook I think I see the purpose of Koha::Database now as handling the connection..
04:01 mtompset dcook: The problem with everyone having different standards is you need a place to dump values that don't make it to fields.
04:01 mtj hum, bug happens with prog theme too
04:01 dcook mtompset: O_o?
04:03 mtompset Every possible MARC field/subfield is not represented in the physical data structures.
04:03 mtompset marcxml is a good catchall.
04:03 dcook o_O
04:04 dcook Sorry. Not following. I'm going to go try to explode my server now :)
04:05 dcook Hmm, depending on which documentation I choose to follow...
04:05 mtompset Liblime's? ;)
04:06 dcook nah, it's all DBIC documentation
04:06 dcook But the Cookbook seems slightly different to the POD for the classes
04:06 dcook I think I get it though
04:06 dcook Seems a shame not to take more advantage of DBIC for managing upgrades
04:07 dcook Mmm, I think I understand now
04:07 dcook create_ddl_dir() will give you a dump of the whole database
04:08 dcook But if you've included verisons in your code, and in the method call, you can get "diffs" for upgrading too
04:08 dcook Which can be managed more automagically by DBIx::Class::Schema::Versioned
04:08 dcook Or in a pinch, manually
04:10 dcook All right. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-W6as8oVcuM
04:11 dcook Bollocks
04:11 dcook DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::create_ddl_dir(): Can't create a ddl file without SQL::Translator >= 0.11016
04:11 dcook I had a feeling that might be a problem
04:11 eythian not bollocks, butts.
04:11 dcook hehe
04:11 dcook indeed!
04:11 dcook I should really keep my story straight
04:14 dcook I foresee perhaps one other problem... but fingers crossed
04:14 dcook Hmm, no warnings or errors, but that was too fast...
04:14 dcook Then again..
04:15 mtj well... i cant replicate my bug on BL koha (3.17.00.016)
04:16 mtj bootstrap and IT lang - thats good :)
04:16 dcook Hmm, I wonder how it decides what order to do..
04:17 dcook 480 differences between the dumped file and kohastructure.sql
04:17 dcook But how many are just because they're in different spots in the document..
04:18 eythian mtj: see the link to Carp::Always I posted, run the script from the command line with that loaded, it'll give you a stack trace when it dies.
04:20 mtj will do eythian
04:20 dcook I suppose the way to do it would be to create a new schema using this dump... then dump it using mysql and see how that compares against kohastructure.sql...
04:20 Oak @seen tcohen
04:20 huginn Oak: tcohen was last seen in #koha 6 hours, 28 minutes, and 41 seconds ago: <tcohen> jcamins++ # liguistic aid
04:20 dcook maybe
04:20 mtj fyi, i cant see your previous post eythian
04:20 Oak tcohen++
04:20 eythian <eythian> http://search.cpan.org/~ferreira/Carp-Always-0.13/lib/Carp/Always.pm <-- oh handy
04:21 * Oak waves
04:21 mtj ah, i see it now :)
04:24 * mtompset waves back to Oak.
04:27 mtompset Did anyone see my inquiry that circles about C4::Letters::EnqueueLetter?
04:27 mtj does anyone have a method for building langs, for a koha-gitify koha?
04:28 mtompset wouldn't it be the same after you make it a git?
04:34 mtj nah, koha-translate doesnt work for gitify setup
04:34 mtj ...assumes /usr/share/koha
04:35 dcook Hmm, I don't think SQL::Translator likes "double precision" in itemtypes...
04:35 RTerrenal hello everyone
04:39 mtompset Greetings, RTerrenal. :)
04:39 mtompset Glad to see you online here, Ryan. :)
04:40 mtj looks like koha-translate could be patched to take non-default paths, pretty easily
04:40 mtj hiya RTerrenal
04:41 mtompset Ryan, where's Eugene?
04:43 RTerrenal idk
04:43 Oak wdk
04:45 mtompset He said he is here, but I don't know his nickname.
04:46 mtompset Hopefully we can pull in a Filipino contingent today. :)
04:47 bag :)
04:48 mtompset Ryan, have you read the agenda for the meeting? http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/General_IRC_meeting_19_November_2014
04:48 RTerrenal reading now
04:54 mtj how do people feel about getting the koha-* CLI tools working with koha-gitify?
04:54 mtompset I'm indifferent, though I can see a benefit for those who actually use koha-gitify.
04:56 * cait waves
04:57 bag heya cait
04:58 cait heya
04:58 cait are we having a meeting or can i go back to sleep? :)
04:59 bag I think we are having a meeting
04:59 cait :)
04:59 mtompset I count 1 minute to meeting plus or minus a minute. :)
04:59 cait ok
04:59 cait i better go look for the agenda :)

05:36 cait i think we don't have a strict rule currently
05:36 * rangi is sorta here dealing with kids
05:37 bag IMO mtompset I think as long as you volunteer - then lets give it a shot

05:37 mtompset AMEN!
05:37 mtompset We should all do signoffs.

05:37 rangi All the qa team including Christopher Brannon have my vote
05:38 rangi Bbiab
05:38 bag he wants to start small - not QAing the large patches - but the smaller ones
05:38 mtompset Okay, given that clarified criteria, and rangi's vote of confidence... I'm +1 for all.

05:45 cait #agreed Release Maintainer 3.16: Mason James
05:45 bag yeah that would
05:45 mtj heh, indeed mtompset :0)
05:45 cait first part of the meeting is done with elections now :)
05:45 cait we almost got a release team!
05:46 cait koha++
05:46 cait #topic Establish a roat map for Koha
05:46 cait sec
05:46 cait #topic Establish a road map for Koha
05:46 mtompset ^roat^road^
05:46 cait can't leave that typo in
05:46 mtompset :)
05:46 cait BobB: do you want to explain a bit?
05:46 BobB this arose on the sidelines of KohaCon14
05:47 BobB we used to have release specific roadmaps, like this:
05:47 BobB http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Roadmap_to_3.12
05:47 BobB but if features were held up it got messy
05:47 BobB so now
05:47 cait #link http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Roadmap_to_3.12
05:48 BobB #info the idea is to have a road map that is not time linked,
05:48 BobB #info not linked to any one release
05:48 BobB so it becomes a bit of a strategic plan for the code, if you like
05:49 BobB #info so people can see what is coming up, but not necessarily when it might get there
05:49 cait so more.. general things we work towards to than a schedule?
05:50 mtompset functionality plans?
05:50 BobB #info The suggestion is to include both proposed new features and also plumbing improvements
05:50 BobB #info It was suggested the Road Map could have just a brief description of each proposal ...
05:51 BobB #info with a link to a separate page where the full RFC might be
05:51 BobB that's it
05:51 Oak an aerial view :)
05:51 rangi the idea is its reevaluated after each major release
05:52 BobB oh yeah, thx rangi
05:52 BobB #info It was also suggested ..
05:52 cait #info the idea is to reevaluate after each release
05:52 * dcook likes this idea
05:52 rangi so its not fixed, always moving, more of a aspirational list than a roadmap
05:52 cait sorry BobB
05:52 BobB #info that the meeting after each major release could consider updates to the road map
05:52 cait I'd like to try it :)
05:52 BobB #info but that its maintenance can also be a continuous process
05:52 bag +1
05:53 cait but i think then the next question would be - how do we get started?
05:53 mtompset from bugzilla?
05:53 cait hm I think as we are collectiing more general ideas, there might not be bugs
05:53 cait or many bugs :)
05:53 rangi cait: we dont have to decide that til after the release
05:54 BobB there might be big bugs, but certainly not every bug, or even close
05:54 cait thought we could collect some ideas
05:54 rangi for now, lets focus our energy on it, and people can write notes and we can look at them post release
05:54 cait sounds good to me
05:54 rangi so part of the release process can be a retrospective meeting
05:55 Oak yes!
05:55 rangi what went well, what didnt, what can we do better
05:55 cait #idea Have a retrospective meeting as part of the release process
05:55 rangi and update the roadmpa at that
05:55 cait +1
05:55 Oak +1
05:55 cait i like that
05:55 BobB #idea so we could endorse the idea today, and list it for more discussion at the next meeting?
05:55 rangi sounds good to me BobB
05:55 bag maybe at the next meeting - we do it
05:55 mtompset Actually won't the next meeting be after the release?
05:55 cait i think the general response was positive - souns good tome too
05:56 BobB exactly mtompset
05:56 mtompset So it aligns nicely.
05:56 BobB :)
05:56 cait first retro and road map meeting than?
05:56 cait moving on?
05:56 BobB yep, ok
05:56 cait #idea use the next meeting to have more discussion, past and future on the road map
05:57 * mtompset likes that idea.
05:57 cait #topic Establish new roles within the release team
05:57 BobB #info This arose from the same discussion
05:58 BobB #info the proposal is to establish a Wiki Maintainer as a member of the release team
05:58 BobB #info and a Communications Manager
05:58 mtompset The agenda says curator nor maintainer. ;)
05:58 BobB #info peeps thought these might be available to Librarians rather than developers ...
05:58 mtompset ^nor^not^
05:58 BobB #info who are busy enough already
05:59 BobB oops big correction, gives a whole different sense of, thx mtompset
05:59 rangi i like the idea, finding volunteers would be the trick, but we can ask and see if anyone does volunteer
05:59 BobB #info /Wiki Manager/ Wiki Curator/
05:59 mtompset What is the idea for a communication manager?
06:00 rangi pretty much what coms do at any organisation
06:00 rangi press releases, get info out about the releases to places like librarytechnology.org etc
06:00 BobB I mailed the list about it but don't have that to hand ....
06:00 cait nudge people to get their news into the newsletter.. on the blog... write something up etc
06:00 rangi they dont have to write it, but they can learn who to ask to write things, and then where to send them
06:01 BobB liaise with the newsletter eds, bash people to write articles, etc
06:01 mtompset Isn't that part of what the newsletter folks are doing? or is that something more than that?
06:01 BobB rangi ++
06:01 cait mtompset: i think reaching into other media/places a bit more
06:01 BobB its broader imo
06:01 mtompset A Koha Evangelist?
06:02 rangi no
06:02 rangi thats a whole other thing
06:02 cait help us do good things AND actually talk about it? :)
06:02 BobB a coordinator of stuff that is already happening, and a stirrer to make more stuff happen
06:02 rangi yes
06:02 mtompset Public Relations person?
06:02 BobB but not to do stuff, oneself
06:03 BobB necessarily
06:03 Oak when you choose that person, i can be his/her assistant.
06:03 BobB Oak +1
06:03 bag Oak +1
06:04 BobB #info, if agreed to, these roles would be defined and advertised on the list: a call for nominations
06:04 rangi you know when you see somethign come across the list, 1000 libraries in turkey using koha .. someone who follows that up, finds out more info, gets it more widely circulated etc
06:04 rangi more like a journalist than a pr person ... we dont expect them to actually lie ;-)
06:04 mtompset Okay, I think I got it.
06:04 Oak i feel like i can do that.
06:05 mtompset both journalists and pr people lie, rangi. Fox News. ;)
06:05 cait :)
06:05 Oak Fox News.... really bad example
06:05 bag awesome Oak !!!
06:05 rangi i think calling people on fox news journalists is a huge disservice to journalists :)
06:05 rangi thats pr people and pr people :)
06:05 mtompset true, true. :)
06:05 cait Oak++ :)
06:06 rangi should we agree on the positions?
06:06 rangi minute that at least
06:06 mtompset but back on topic... yes, let's put that out on the list for a call for nominations.
06:06 BobB if we find people to fill them its a win, if we don't nothing is lost
06:06 rangi *nod*
06:06 bag +1
06:06 schnydszch media as in TV, newspaper and radio?
06:06 schnydszch *other media
06:06 cait ok, any veto?
06:07 bag I think part of the call for volunteers - will be they get to help create and shape this role too
06:07 BobB good point bag
06:07 Oak yes! i was thinking same thing.
06:08 cait what can i put in the agreed?
06:08 cait #agreed Look for a Wiki Curator and Communication manager
06:08 BobB yep

06:39 Malik____ how to take schedule backup of koha
06:39 schnydszch good night to all that's about to go to sleep. Good day to others! :)
06:39 Malik____ can any one tell me
06:40 mtompset Malik____: There is a cronjob installed by default for a package installation that does 2 days automatically.
06:40 Malik____ but i want hourly backup
06:41 schnydszch set the settings to do it hourly
06:42 rangi just write a cronjob that dumps the db every hour
06:42 rangi bearing in mind it will lock tables etc as its doing it
06:42 Malik____ ok got that
06:42 rangi so will cause lock ups/ go slows while you are doing it
06:42 mtompset schnydszch: The backup script is written for daily purposes, there is nothing hourly. A DB dump hourly is quickest and easiest.
06:42 rangi doing a full backup when the library is in heavy use is not a good idea, if you want it for hourly
06:43 rangi id suggest doing actual replication
06:43 rangi and nightly full dumps
06:43 schnydszch as they say yeah it's a bad idea to backup hourly
06:44 schnydszch okay, I''m setting some cron jobs on mine through webmin, it's easier to manage through an interface :)
06:44 rangi https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/replication.html
06:54 Malik____ hello to all i am working with sms configuration in koha so can anyone tell me that how it is possible to send notices to patrons in SMS
06:57 mtompset Have a great day, #koha schnydszch RTerrenal rangi mtj Malik____ dcook
06:58 schnydszch Malik: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Use-the-SMS-Send-driver-to-send-SMS-messages-in-Koha-td5727805.html
07:01 schnydszch you enable in sms send driver in global system preference the driver for sending your SMS (SMSSendDriver)
07:01 Malik____ i have tried these but i am working with GSM device is it possible to configure this device with koha on ubuntu
07:01 mtj you need to choose a good SMS company Malik____
07:02 schnydszch I haven't tried it. I actually wanted to test this, however there are none yet in the Philippines.
07:02 Malik____ in GSM device i am using a mobile phone company
07:03 mtj ...choose a company, that has a working driver for perl
07:03 Malik____ i have tried but there API are not working in Pakistan
07:03 mtj ok, then you have a problem
07:04 Malik____ what
07:04 Malik____ i think GSM has drivers those are compatible with pearl
07:09 mtj Malik____: clickatell.com looks good for PK
07:10 Malik____ ok let me check
07:10 mtj https://www.clickatell.com/test-sms-gateway/
07:11 mtj ...and has perl driver too
07:11 mtj http://search.cpan.org/~nobull/SMS-Send-Clickatell-0.02/lib/SMS/Send/Clickatell.pm
07:14 Malik____ nice and thanks now i will start working with Clickatell
07:14 littleboss hello can help fixing the install for this dep on koha 3.16 Template::Plugin::HtmlToText
07:16 Malik____ quite:
07:24 mtj littleboss: you are installing koha using packages, yes?
07:26 mtj http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.x_on_Debian_Squeeze
07:36 mtj hmm, i think Malik might be better off using this...
07:36 mtj http://search.cpan.org/dist/SMS-Send-DeviceGsm/lib/SMS/Send/DeviceGsm.pm
07:36 mtj with his GSM box
07:37 mtj i see Joubu had some problems with koha and clickatell, and needed to patch
07:44 reiveune hello
07:44 wahanui hello, reiveune
07:44 * cait waves
07:44 * cait runs off to work
07:55 alex_a bonjour
07:56 eythian [off] I hope my snarky reply about the cataloguing interface wasn't too snarky. We shall see.
07:58 rangi [off] i was gonna reply to it, but hadnt got round to it
07:59 Joubu hello #koha
07:59 rangi [off] seems not too snarky to me
07:59 rangi hi Joubu
08:01 eythian hi Joubu, alex_a
08:02 Joubu eythian: I will try to have a look at your new syspref cache patch
08:03 eythian Joubu: thanks :D
08:03 littleboss mtj: Yes
08:04 Joubu mtj: I had problems with clickatell? Hum, it had to be someone else, I don't know what is clickatell :)
08:04 * eythian makes like a tree and leaves
08:06 mtj Joubu: https://www.mail-archive.com/koha-devel@lists.koha-community.org/msg06687.html
08:06 littleboss mtj: Had to step away
08:06 littleboss mtj: pachkages yes
08:07 Joubu mtj: ha yes :) I forgot this email
08:07 mtj aah Joubu, you made a general SMS patch? - not a patch for clickatell
08:08 mtj littleboss: # apt-get intsall libtemplate-plugin-htmltotext-perl
08:08 Joubu mtj: that's it, I did not write this module (Clickatell.pm)
08:08 mtj ok, got it :)
08:08 littleboss mtj: have an error on that
08:09 littleboss mtj: all the other modules install
08:09 mtj hmm, ok
08:09 mtj paste?
08:09 wahanui i think paste is found at http://paste.koha-community.org
08:09 mtj littleboss: paste error there ^
08:11 littleboss mtj: E: Package 'libtemplate-plugin-htmltotext-perl' has no installation candidate
08:11 littleboss mtj: Package libtemplate-plugin-htmltotext-perl is not available, but is referred to by another package.
08:11 littleboss This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
08:11 littleboss is only available from another source
08:12 mtj you have some mistake with your apt sources , i think
08:13 littleboss mtj: what would be the work around
08:14 littleboss mtj: :)
08:14 eythian there is a version of libtemplate-plugin-htmltotext-perl in all the Koha repos.
08:14 * eythian is not good at leaving but it really doing it now
08:14 eythian littleboss: it sounds like you might not have the Koha repo sources added correctly, I'll let mtj help with that :)
08:15 mtj littleboss: are you following the good install instructions?
08:15 mtj -> http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.x_on_Debian_Squeeze
08:17 mtj 'To get the stable 3.16 release, add this to a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list file:'
08:17 mtj deb http://debian.koha-community.org/koha squeeze main
08:17 mtj .
08:18 mtj i think you miss this step? ^
08:18 Joubu rangi: do you know when the spliter update its data?
08:18 Joubu rangi: I don't see patches I sent recently
08:25 littleboss mtj: yes
08:25 littleboss :eythian bn checking it out in vain
08:26 littleboss mtj: let me try tht will get back to you asap
08:27 mtj no probs littleboss
08:27 mtj ..you can always create a new linux VM, to test :)
08:28 * cait waves
08:30 littleboss mtj: true
08:31 rangi Joubu: it should be running every morning, it might have died for some reason, ill check
08:31 rangi just ran it manually, look better now?
08:32 Joubu rangi: yep!
08:32 Joubu So what the problem?
08:33 rangi not sure, the cron is set up, ill set it to mail me instead of > /dev/null so i can see if it throws an error
08:39 schnydszch hi sophiem of biblibre, i have question regarding koha-drupal koha connector
08:44 schnydszch please correct me if I'm wrong, is the Koha connector module in drupal for UNIMARC only?
08:45 paul_p jajm ^
08:47 jajm schnydszch, hi, the koha connector is very configurable, but maybe some things are UNIMARC only, like 200$a for the title (but that could be changed easily in the source code)
08:52 schnydszch so the koha.conf in one of the files in the module needs to be configured. However, when I run the drush opac-harvest I get this WD OPAC HARVEST: Can't determine the content type for record
08:52 schnydszch WD OPAC HARVEST: Can't determine the content type for record
08:53 schnydszch is this related to the koha connector not configured for UNIMARC? or another thing
08:55 schnydszch i'm testing this in Koha 3.16.4 drush version 6.2.0 and drupal 7.28. hi paul_p :)
08:56 paul_p schnydszch (the author of the connector is jajm, not me. I'm jajm boss ;-) )
08:57 jajm schnydszch, you need to configure the content types for your opac server, in drupal admin
08:58 jajm schnydszch, https://www.drupal.org/node/1780226
08:58 schnydszch I've already configured. do i need to configure them all. I only configured one field
08:59 jajm it seems that the rule you set doesn't match
09:00 schnydszch the itemtype is 995. however the field for itemtype is 952
09:00 schnydszch as i see in the mapping
09:02 jajm schnydszch, what do you have in koha.conf about itemtype ?
09:04 schnydszch by the way, wheke.org is down, this was presented in Koha Con '13 :)
09:05 jajm schnydszch, hmm... wheke.org is still up for me
09:05 schnydszch it's inaccessible for me. right now, itype is 995
09:06 schnydszch it was the default
09:06 schnydszch http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/wheke.org
09:07 jajm schnydszch, maybe it's a bad idea to use an item field for guessing the content type, there could be multiple different values, also we never used an item field for that, so you probably found a bug
09:11 schnydszch oh.. one question further. Is the koha-restful needed to be configured? or ILS-DI is enough?
09:11 schnydszch I was thinking that could be one of the reason(s)?
09:29 mveron hi #koha
09:31 * mveron neded quite a time to find a three line fix for Bug 10956 freezing browser while highlighting...
09:31 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10956 major, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, Needs Signoff , Series of OPAC searches can cause a browser crash
09:34 Joubu mveron: I have already fixed that!
09:35 Joubu weird, let me check
09:35 mveron Joubu: Fixed in master?
09:35 Joubu at least submited a patch!
09:37 jajm schnydszch, koha-restful is not needed for opac-harvest, it uses ILS-DI GetRecords
09:38 mveron Joubu:I searchd Bugzilla first, but did not find anything. That's why I worked on it. Do you rmember the Bug number?
09:39 Joubu mveron: 9419:
09:39 Joubu bug 9419
09:39 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9419 minor, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, CLOSED FIXED, The highlight feature can cause a browser freeze
09:39 Joubu the patch fixed opac-results only...
09:40 Joubu mveron: maybe it could be good to have the same function
09:41 schnydszch jajm, okay. I have a item type RETRATO in Koha ILS. In Drupal, I have content type retrato. i tried in field value "/^RETRATO$/" and "/RETRATO /" But still giving me WD OPAC HARVEST: Can't determine the content type for record n° 19 [warning] coming from filipinas_library server. Title: . Switch this record when I issue drush opac-harvest --from=1 --to=20 --print-id -v
09:42 Joubu mveron: see bug 8646 too
09:42 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8646 minor, P5 - low, ---, robin, CLOSED FIXED, Certain search terms cause browser "script taking too long" error
09:44 jajm schnydszch, as i said, maybe it's not possible to use an item field for that, could you try with another field ?
09:45 schnydszch can somebody using 3.16.4 confirm if they're getting the same. In circulation and fine rules, heard due date is non editable. Whenever it is edited it sets to None define. i've also tried this with bywater's http://intranet.bywatersolutions.com/cgi-bin/koha/admin/smart-rules.pl which is 3.17.x Please confirm. Thanks!
09:45 schnydszch jajm, okay i'll try
09:52 littleboss schnydszch: how did you get past Package libtemplate-plugin-htmltotext-perl is not available error in 3.16.4
09:53 littleboss schnydszch: building a test env to handle this any suggestions ?
09:57 schnydszch littleboss, is this for koha-restful? if it is, I was not successful installing it
10:01 littleboss schnydszch: from here http://download.koha-community.org/koha-latest.tar.gz
10:01 schnydszch jajm, i've tried with books field value "/^BK$/" and only mapping is ISBN because it was the only field I can edit on the fly (from 010 to 020). I'm still getting the same error
10:02 schnydszch by the way, koha installation is debian package
10:03 littleboss running it on ubuntu :)
10:03 jajm schnydszch, on which field do you try to match '^BK$' ?
10:04 schnydszch Books content type
10:04 schnydszch jajm, "/^BK$/"
10:04 schnydszch jajm, Books content type
10:04 littleboss schnydszch: stuck at web installer step 1 because of Template::Plugin::HtmlToText
10:06 schnydszch littleboss try cpan
10:06 jajm schnydszch, Books content type corresponds to a MARC field in koha.conf, do your Koha records have 'BK' in this MARC field ?
10:07 littleboss schnydszch tried it
10:07 littleboss schnydszch let me share the error
10:07 schnydszch littleboss, you can follow this http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.x_on_Debian_Squeeze I'm not sure if it's doable in Ubuntu
10:09 schnydszch yes it's in 952$y
10:09 schnydszch which is the itemtype
10:09 jajm schnydszch, an item field ?
10:10 schnydszch yep
10:10 schnydszch i edited 995 to 952
10:10 schnydszch ; Itype biblioFields[itype][label] = 952 Items type biblioFields[itype][description] = "items type in 952\$y marc field." biblioFields[itype][get][0][value] = '952$y' biblioFields[itype][default] = 'INC'
10:12 littleboss schnydszch thnks for the heads-up

10:12 jajm schnydszch, try with a non-item field, a non-repeatable one if possible
10:13 schnydszch littleboss, yeah never experienced that as of late since using the debian package
10:13 schnydszch jajm, okay i'll try to look at my marc records
10:13 schnydszch how about control field?
10:13 wahanui control field is number ?
10:14 littleboss mtj it installs but the recheck still fails
10:14 schnydszch 001 I mean
10:14 schnydszch control no
10:14 littleboss schnydszch it has funnyly installed but the the recheck still fails
10:15 schnydszch you passed through koha web installer
10:15 schnydszch ?
10:15 littleboss yes
10:15 littleboss downloaded the kohalatest
10:16 littleboss installed. bn doing that on past installs
10:17 Joubu mveron: yes I saw. That's why I suggested you to use the same code
10:21 schnydszch jajm, probably this error above the message will help (?): Undefined offset: 0 koha.inc:456
10:22 schnydszch somewhere along the line 456: // Title information. $bib['title'] = ''; $title = $this->get(array('value' => '200$a'), $bib_info_marc); $bib['title'] = $title[0]; if (!$bib['title']) { $bib['title'] = ' ';
10:23 jajm schnydszch, hmm, which version of koha-connector do you use ?
10:24 schnydszch koha_connector-7.x-2.x-dev
10:26 jajm schnydszch, and which version of opac ?
10:27 schnydszch opac-7.x-2.0
10:27 jajm schnydszch, you should probably upgrade to 3.x-dev for both
10:27 schnydszch okay jajm, i'll try
10:28 jajm koha-connector 3.x-dev was not visible on drupal.org, but i just fixed that
10:31 schnydszch okay thanks, I'm trying it now. I downloaded it already

13:48 bigbrovar Hi guys. after setting up koha instance for my school (on our intranet) it worked fine so we proceeded to do a setup on linode everything seems ok.. exporting marc from the intranet version to the version on linode went well without problems.. however when I did test to put a book on hold I get this error "Sorry, none of these items can be placed on hold." " No available items"
13:49 bigbrovar this is even when the item information are displayed and the item is marked as available. I crossed check the circulation and fine rules and have the default all setup
13:50 cait bigbrovar: check allowonshelfholds preference
13:50 ashimema so does it work on your intranets installation?
13:50 cait bigbrovar: also make sure that you have the number of reserves in the cirulation rule not empty, but with a number
14:00 bigbrovar cait: Thanks alot. I will do just that
14:01 bigbrovar cait: That as it. placing holds now work
14:05 schnydszch__ Thank you very much jajm for the Koha-Drupal integration. I'll configure and read further. I'll try to remap koha.conf UNIMARC to MARC21 and share it. Cheers! :)
14:10 Joubu oleonard: what do you mean by "broken" in bug Bug 13289?
14:10 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=13289 blocker, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Calendar with weekly repeating holidays completely broken by DataTables upgrade
14:11 Joubu I get really weird behaviors on the page too
14:11 oleonard Joubu: I mean the page doesn't load at all
14:11 Joubu yep, same here...
14:11 Joubu outch
14:12 oleonard Joubu: Before you get too deep into that problem I have a question about Bug 13288
14:12 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=13288 major, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Needs Signoff , Saved reports tabs broken by DataTables upgrade
14:12 oleonard The patch works, but there seems to be a noticeable slowdown with loading each tab
14:13 Joubu how?
14:13 Joubu I didn't notice that
14:13 oleonard When I test it before the DataTables upgrade, clicking each tab brings up the contents of the tab almost instantly
14:13 Joubu but I don't have a lot of report (something like ~30)
14:14 oleonard After the patch it takes about one second for the tab to switch
14:14 oleonard So: Click the tab... Wait one second... The tab switches.
14:14 Joubu hum...
14:14 oleonard I have 31 reports in all
14:17 tcohen mtj++
14:22 Joubu oleonard: repeatable holidays: it comes from the document.write into a td (...)
14:22 Joubu oleonard: Which is really dirty
14:22 Joubu But I don't know how we could fix that
14:24 oleonard I'll take a look and see if I can get any ideas Joubu
14:31 Joubu oleonard: ok patch sent

21:34 thd cait: There is one more category added.
21:34 cait #agreed Bug Wrangler: Magnus Enger
21:34 cait yes
21:34 cait i am not sure how to deal with that
21:34 cait because the nominations were added after the first meeting today
21:35 drojf not that i don't like the category but i think we should vote that next time then?
21:35 thd The first meeting can vote again next month.
21:35 cait i am not sure it would make sense to split like that
21:35 cait i'd like to not spread out a vote over a month :)
21:35 thd cait: OK, I agree.
21:35 cait i don't think people won't be voted
21:36 cait did you plan to start right away?
21:36 thd cait: no, you should read my proposal.
21:37 cait i haven't yet to be honest
21:37 cait didn't have the time
21:37 thd However, the whole role should be open to everyone always.
21:37 BobB hi cait, I can speak to this
21:37 wizzyrea Personally, I think if they are volunteering, and they want to do it, they should.
21:38 drojf i don't think postponing the vote should/will keep anyone from volunteering on things
21:38 barton wizzyrea++
21:38 BobB #info the first meeting decided to advertise the role on the list and call for nominations
21:38 cait I think so too
21:38 cait we don't keep people from cleaning up the wiki now :)
21:38 BobB #info Then there were no nominations, now there are
21:38 wizzyrea yeah, vote next time, if it really requires a vote?
21:38 BobB #info So I think it still needs a short note to the list, but now ...
21:39 wizzyrea I guess that's the part I don't understand, why it actually needs a vote?
21:39 BobB that note can point to the wiki and existing nominations
21:39 thd I wrote the entry in plural form like bug wrangler.
21:39 BobB and we vote at next month's meeting
21:39 BobB in the meantime, of course, those willing continue
21:39 barton makes sense, BobB.
21:39 cait wizzyrea: i think because we want to give it a more official touch :)
21:40 wizzyrea as you wish
21:40 cait the same as for other roles
21:40 cait #info official elections for Wiki curator to take place next meeting
21:41 BobB cool
21:41 cait we got a release team!
21:41 BobB well done cait and thank you!!!! to all team members
21:41 cait #topic Establish a Road Map for Koha
21:42 BobB #info this arises from a discussion on the sidelines of KohaCon
21:42 BobB #info Until at least 3.12 we had a roadmap that was time (release) based
21:42 BobB #info the idea is to re-create the roadmap, but not time based
21:43 BobB #info so it serves a little like a strategic plan for the code, less formal
21:43 BobB #info we suggest taht the first meeting after the Release should review the release and discuss updates to the roadmap
21:44 BobB #info but maintaining the roadmap can be a continuous process, of course
21:44 BobB #info the other idea was that items in the roadmap would be described in just a few lines ...
21:44 BobB with a link to another page providing a full RFS
21:44 BobB that
21:44 BobB 's it
21:45 BobB #info with a link to another page providing a full RFC
21:45 BobB even
21:45 bag thanks again BobB
21:45 thd BobB: You seem to be describing a wiki.
21:46 BobB it would of course be a page on teh wiki
21:46 BobB on phone
21:46 cait I think we had talked about the wiki too in argentina when discussing this
21:46 wizzyrea https://www.drupal.org/roadmap I would like to see a page like this
21:46 wizzyrea on our website
21:47 cait i think maybe draft on the wiki
21:47 cait and when we have a stable state we could move it to the website?
21:47 cait or have a link
21:47 wizzyrea https://core.trac.wordpress.org/roadmap or something like this
21:48 wizzyrea the dashboard does some of that
21:48 mario +1
21:48 bag I think for now we are just trying to get it going again
21:48 wizzyrea I'm suggesting ways in which it could be done ;)
21:48 bag the process and what it's like will come with time :) for now - yes let's do it or not
21:48 cait #link https://core.trac.wordpress.org/roadmap
21:48 wizzyrea Koha needs a roadmac
21:49 thd Is wiki content ever stable?
21:49 wizzyrea roadmap.
21:49 cait #link https://www.drupal.org/roadmap
21:49 cait i am pro trying a roadmap, but i think we need tomake sure it's not a promise
21:49 cait for a certain release or date
21:49 cait well looks like a promise
21:50 wizzyrea https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:Roadmap
21:50 wizzyrea bugzilla has a nice, wiki based, example.
21:50 drojf when the roadmap is discussed after releases it may be a good moment to transfer a current state from teh wiki to the website
21:50 cait #link https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:Roadmap
21:50 wizzyrea which makes use of the internal bugzilla priorities
21:50 BobB back
21:51 bag welcome back BobB
21:52 cait the first meeting suggested discussing the road map more at the next meeting, which will be shortly after release I think
21:52 BobB indeed cait
21:52 bag yeah lets do the roadmap next meeting :D
21:52 cait also to 'Have a retrospective meeting as part of the release process'
21:52 drojf did you vote yes or no in general for a roadmap in the first meeting?
21:53 thd Sadly, I am unlikely toi be able to attend the next meeting but I will read the logs and any discussion on the mailing list.
21:53 cait we could collect examples on the wiki until then, or on the next agenda
21:53 cait i think it got positive response
21:53 BobB will keep you posted, thd
21:53 cait BobB and bag were there too this morning, so I hope they correct me :)
21:53 thd My specific proposal for the wiki was mostly related to other maintenance issues.
21:53 cait well ... when i got something wrong :)
21:54 BobB it got positive response withut a formal vote
21:54 wizzyrea it's a good idea.
21:54 drojf i think it's a good idea
21:54 bag there were no objections is maybe a good way to put it
21:54 drojf yes, exactly :D
21:55 cait ok, so going to add ideas to next meetings agenda?
21:55 bag cait++
21:55 BobB yes please
21:55 cait #agreed We will gather information and ideas for the road map on the next meetings agenda
21:55 cait #topic Establish new roles within the release team
21:55 cait we already heard a bit about the idea of having a wiki curator i think
21:56 cait the other idea is having a communication manager
21:56 cait BobB: could you explain?
21:56 thd One of the key things I examine for any software project which posts one is the development roadmap.
21:56 BobB yeah I think we have resolved wiki curator for now?
21:56 cait thd: i think the danger is that we can't give guarantees formost things - as we are on time based - hope we can avoid wrong expectations
21:57 thd I also prefer feature based releases but that has not worked as well for the project.
21:57 drojf i understood the roadmap to be not time/releasebased so i see no problem there
21:57 BobB thd that is a core aspect of the proposal - the roadmap will not be time based
21:57 bag drojf++ good comment
21:58 wizzyrea A statement of "these are the things we're working on, but we don't know when we'll get them done"
21:58 wizzyrea or "these are the goals we have for the project"
21:58 wizzyrea and maybe a statement of priority.
21:58 BobB yes, prominently
21:59 BobB or just whether it is being worked on now or not
21:59 cait should we omve on to Communication Manager?
21:59 BobB #info on the sidelines of KohaCon there was discussion about adding a Communications Manager role to the release team
22:00 bag yes let's move on cait
22:00 BobB #info this is to be a coordinating role, more than a doing role
22:00 BobB we thought it would be a role a librarian could fulfill, rather than a developer,
22:01 BobB so that it does not consume development time
22:01 BobB but is active in seeing the project is promoted more than it is now
22:01 BobB So: prompting other people to write stuff,
22:01 BobB liaising with the (excellent) newsletter team
22:01 bag BobB: is this written up anywhere? or waiting for vote and then forwarding to mailing list?
22:02 BobB its in the minutes of the first meeting I guess
22:02 BobB not elsewhere, in any great detail
22:03 bag ok cool - I have some people in mind
22:03 BobB I don't have anything to hand bag
22:03 thd Is this the role Kahtiki [please correct my spelling]?
22:03 BobB I think the question is: do we endorse the role
22:03 BobB if so, it can be fleshed out and call for nominations put out to the list
22:03 drojf is it supposed to be some kind of official spokesperson to direct inquieres to?
22:04 bag BobB: no worries - I'm thinking a phone call will work from me (of course)
22:04 bag drojf: nope
22:04 bag thd: no
22:04 BobB droif not necessarily, but it could be if the community had that level of confidence
22:04 BobB so maybe that could come later
22:05 drojf ok
22:05 cait i think we started with a discussion that we do great things, but don't tlak about it
22:05 cait and trying to think of ways how we could make that happen
22:05 BobB Stuff gets on list but not pushed as a press release e.g. to Marshall Breeding
22:05 wizzyrea we should ask marshall breeding to publish our newsletter.
22:06 drojf makes sense. thinking of the excellent video that was done in argentina… we could probably have more things pushed to the outside world
22:06 bag rangi had a few good things to say in it too - check the logs
22:06 BobB we just found out there is a union catalogue in Argentina with a thousand public libraries: wow! but who knows that?
22:07 bag the idea is someone to help us all promote koha better (not protect it)
22:07 bag but not an evangelist
22:07 BobB the closed source systems have marketing departments, we have word of mouth :)
22:07 cait orthe public libraries in greece
22:08 BobB or phillipines or turkey ...
22:08 bag sort of more a journalist
22:08 bag yeah what cait and BobB are saying
22:08 cait turkey... not greece, although who knows? :)
22:08 BobB more to pull stuff together and to get it out there, rather than to do stuff oneself
22:09 bag and of course whomeever volunteers for this - will help create and shape the roll
22:09 drojf BobB: i think that may have to do with the "free & open" thing. you can get every information you would ever like to have about koha by yourself. that is not the case with proprietary systems. but we should not assume that everyone will know that and/or want to go looking for all the things themselves
22:09 cait should we have a quick vote to see if people like the idea?
22:09 bag yup good point drojf
22:10 BobB exactly droif
22:10 bag (voted this morning)
22:10 wizzyrea I like it, but I don't know if it's going to be economically possible for a volunteer to do what you are asking.
22:10 cait i think if we got a bit more done than now... already a win
22:10 cait and maybe it could grow into a team?
22:10 BobB if they do a bit, its more than now :)
22:12 BobB We can put it out to the list, if there is not response, nothing is lost,
22:12 cait ok, quick like/not like vote?
22:12 BobB but if someone comes forward, its a win
22:12 rangi http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Release_Announcements <-- david nind did this
22:12 cait +1 like it
22:12 rangi and used to, (still does some) update stuff
22:12 rangi i think thats a good start
22:12 cait yeah that's pretty cool
22:12 bag right thank you for saying that cait and BobB - more is better than nothing and being overwhelmed
22:13 drojf +1 i like it too
22:13 eythian actually even someone sending notices about releases to the places that are likely to publish that sort of thing would do good.
22:14 cait first meeting agreed to have BobB send something to the mailing list
22:14 cait i thik as we heard no 'no' - we can do that?
22:15 bag yuppers
22:15 cait #action BobB will email the mailing list about the new roles
22:15 BobB ok
22:15 cait #topic KohaCon15
22:15 cait gbengaadara: still around? :)
22:15 gbengaadara yup
22:16 gbengaadara #info kohacon15 will be between 19th - 25th October 2015
22:16 bag heya gbengaadara
22:16 gbengaadara hi bag
22:16 gbengaadara #info Conference 19th - 21st, Hackfest 23rd - 25th
22:17 gbengaadara Done some update to http://kohacon15.projektlinkkonsult.com/ after the first meeting
22:17 gbengaadara Attempting to edit the wiki pages
22:17 rangi excellent
22:17 gbengaadara but still finding my feet
22:18 * BobB has to leave now, apologies
22:18 barton BobB++
22:18 cait BobB++
22:18 barton nice explanations earlier.
22:18 bag later BobB
22:18 bag good work gbengaadara
22:19 bag adding the airport info like rangi asked is key :)
22:19 rangi yep he has :)
22:19 cait #info http://kohacon15.projektlinkkonsult.com/ updated now :)
22:19 gbengaadara Should have some info in the kohacon15 page on the wiki in a couple of days too.
22:19 bag anybody have recommendations or comments for gbengaadara
22:20 cait not right now - looks pretty good :)
22:20 cait maybe we should add a short note to the website about KohaCon15 if we haven't yet?
22:20 gbengaadara will keep info coming and updated.
22:21 drojf website is looking good, thanks gbengaadara
22:21 gbengaadara cait: that will be great
22:21 cait wizzyrea: coudl we add a link to the other site for now?
22:22 wizzyrea Sure
22:22 cait #action adding a note/link to the kc website about kohacon15
22:22 gbengaadara thats all info for now on kohacon15
22:23 cait thx gbengaadara
22:23 rangi thanks gbengaadara
22:23 cait #topic Koha on FLOSS weekly
22:23 magnuse just an idea from me, that i wanted to put out there :-)
22:23 * magnuse is not volunteering
22:23 cait aaah there you are :)
22:24 cait it fits into the communication manager idea...
22:24 drojf i watched the evergreen episode earlier today. wouldn't hurt if anyone wants to do it
22:25 cait i think the hard bit is finding the volunteer
22:25 magnuse yup
22:26 cait hm not sur how to get thi smoving for now
22:26 magnuse nah, just consider the idea aired, and move on :-)
22:27 drojf let the communication manager handle it ^^
22:27 cait ok
22:27 cait we had no actions form last meeting/they got all done
22:27 cait so jumping over that
22:28 cait #topic Set time and date of next general IRC meeting
22:28 cait we have a suggestion for 17th from the first meeting
22:28 magnuse good night or other time of the day, #koha!
22:28 thd I suggest an earlier time
22:28 dcook Mmm, I thought I'd missed this meeting
22:29 wizzyrea gbengaadara: http://koha-community.org/kohacon/kohacon15/
22:29 thd The first meeting time a UTC 5 is a poor time for Europe.
22:29 cait for europe a bit earlier would get more attendance
22:29 cait i think
22:29 cait well it's problem, if we don't do much earlier, we will still be outside of work time - so not sure
22:29 gbengaadara wizzyrea: thanks
22:29 thd This second meeting time should be a good time for Europe if the first one cannot be.
22:30 bag yeah can we shift the timing of things a bit - missed ashimema and paul_p and such
22:30 cait hm what about keep this time - for nz and australia
22:30 thd UTC 18.00 would be somewhat better for Europe but perhaps not enough better.
22:30 cait and move the first by 2 hours
22:30 cait or 3
22:30 cait 9 am is a good time in europe - not usre if uk is -1/+1
22:31 cait 8 and 21?
22:31 wahanui 29
22:31 drojf lol
22:31 thd Is 9 am not a problem with many working people in transit?
22:31 cait normally at 9 most should be at work
22:31 cait i think
22:32 cait drojf - what do you think?
22:32 cait or 9 and 21?
22:32 wahanui 30
22:32 cait wahanui botsnack cookie
22:32 wahanui thanks cait :)
22:33 cait any opinions?
22:33 cait gbengaadara: what time was better for you?
22:33 gbengaadara 9 is ok
22:34 cait i am bad with timezones, so someone needs to check if i am making bad suggestions :)
22:34 cait suggestion would then be: 17th december, 9 and 21 utc
22:34 cait ok?
22:34 gbengaadara If I miss one I should be able to make the other
22:34 gbengaadara ok
22:34 drojf got disconnected
22:35 cait can i get some +1 -1?
22:35 cait or is everyone asleep now? :)
22:35 thd BobB: Is that good?
22:35 thd +1
22:35 rangi +1
22:35 cait #agreed december 17th - 9 and 21 utc
22:35 gbengaadara +1

22:35 drojf i said 9/21 would work for europe, either one or the other. that didn't gegt through it seems ^^
22:36 bag thd BobB had to step out
22:36 eythian that was a long meeting
22:36 cait a bit - the elections make it long
22:36 bag not too bad 35 minutes - I think this mornings was longer-ish
22:36 cait bag: 1:35 :)
22:36 drojf 95 minutes
22:36 bag doh
22:36 drojf heh
22:37 cait but it's good it felt shorter to you :)
22:37 bag I love this stuff
22:37 bag always seems short when talking koha
22:37 cait bag++ :)
22:38 * eythian wonders if master will build today
22:39 bag hey eythian did you see the comments from tomas on http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11998
22:39 huginn 04Bug 11998: major, P5 - low, ---, robin, Needs Signoff , Syspref caching issues
22:40 eythian I did, will look at it today.
22:40 eythian actually, will do that now while this tries to build
22:42 wizzyrea http://koha-community.org/about/ > any objections to that? I already cleared it with tcohen
22:43 bag wizzyrea++
22:44 wizzyrea May do a news item about it as well.
22:44 rangi cool
22:45 cait i like it
22:45 cait wizzyrea: news_item++ :)
22:46 cait wizzyrea: tiny typo in the ibadan link - missing :
22:46 wizzyrea ah thanks
22:47 * eythian notes that master still fails to build.
22:47 rangi theres a bunch of patches that need sign off
22:47 rangi that fix the db dependencies
22:47 wizzyrea heh, no, there was an extra http: on there.
22:48 cait ah, browser made something weird of it then :)
22:51 * eythian thinks git-bz needs a thing that says "apply the patch on this bug, and the patches on all the ones it depends on."
22:52 dcook ^
22:52 cait eythian: you could make it do that...
22:52 eythian I don't really know python well, but also don't have time
22:52 cait and while yo uare on it... can you make it work with a non ascii character in the commit message and doing git bz attach -e?
22:52 cait that would save me a ton of time
22:53 eythian ha ha python is stupid
22:53 eythian actually, an easier thing would be to allow a list of bugs to be passed. Even that doesn't work.
22:56 eythian oh, I had an old version of master.
22:57 dcook Keep meaning to take a look at ol' python
23:03 wajasu ethian: i was going to get my docker kohapatch have a way to give a list of patches, maybe query the depends on, and create a branch with them applied upon instance being run
23:03 wajasu when i signoff and code needs a tweak to pass QA code format rules, can I amend a signoff patch to tweak it, then signoff the tweak, to prevent QA fail?
23:16 wizzyrea @marc 008
23:16 huginn wizzyrea: This field contains 40 character positions (00-39) that provide coded information about the record as a whole and about special bibliographic aspects of the item being cataloged. These coded data elements are potentially useful for retrieval and data management purposes. []
23:21 eythian oh hey, tests passed
23:21 eythian wtf
23:22 eythian then why did the build fail
23:22 eythian oh, dependency issues
23:22 dcook "...potentially useful for retrieval and data management purposes"
23:22 dcook lols
23:23 eythian no, typo in debian/control
23:23 eythian ohh
23:23 eythian no
23:25 dcook http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfLcC1o85bo
23:26 eythian no, the opposite.
23:26 eythian the dependecies have been broken.
23:26 eythian (easy enough to fix though I expect)
23:27 dcook I don't have any more videos or images to express "I hope so"
23:28 eythian well, KMFDM just came on. That's a good start.
23:29 dcook I totally haven't listened to them in ages..
23:29 eythian neither
23:29 dcook Mogwai just came on, which... I listen to them probably every other day, so that's less remarkable
23:30 eythian I think this afternoon might have to be a 90's industrial afternoon. It's got that kind of feel to it.
23:30 eythian but first, curry time while debian/control regenerates.
23:30 dcook Mmm curry
23:30 dcook Alas, it's only morning
23:31 * drojf listens to wellington death metal :D
23:33 drojf or maybe that isn't true and it's auckland
