| 15:29 | kados | Burgwork: hey, just got in |
| 15:30 | Burgwork: what's up? | |
| 15:30 | Burgwork | just wanted to see if you got the email |
| 15:30 | kados | yup, thanks |
| 16:47 | chris | yikes |
| 16:48 | http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=enhistory | |
| 16:48 | this is pretty much all wrong | |
| 16:49 | just to start, katipo isnt a consulting firm .. new zealand is a group of islands ... the list goes on | |
| 16:51 | kados | heh |
| 16:52 | who wrote it? | |
| 16:52 | chris | askress2009 put it up |
| 16:52 | it looks to be screen scraped from somewhere else | |
| 16:53 | Open Source Integrated Library Systems: An Overview/ Eric Anctil, Jamshid Beheshti.-2003 | |
| 16:53 | hmm how to deal with it | |
| 16:53 | kados | looks to be pretty old |
| 16:53 | 2003 | |
| 16:53 | chris | and wrong :) |
| 16:53 | kados | well ... one way to deal would be to place italicized comments in between each paragraph, explaining where it's wrong |
| 16:54 | chris | yeah ill do that |
| 16:55 | kados | Last modified: 2006/09/01 12:21 by askress2009 |
| 16:55 | so whoever askress2009 is ... | |
| 16:55 | chris | yep |
| 16:55 | they did the arabic version too | |
| 16:56 | so ill fix the english one, and hopefully they will fix the arabic one | |
| 16:56 | kados | well they probably subscribe to the rss feed, so I'm sure they'll update it |
| 16:56 | chris | cool |
| 16:56 | Burgwork | can I ask an inflamatory question: why are you guys stuck on doku? why not mediawiki or moinmoin? |
| 16:56 | chris | it works |
| 16:56 | kados | yea, mainly it works and is super simple to install |
| 16:56 | chris | hasnt annoyed us, the end |
| 16:56 | kados | yea |
| 16:56 | Burgwork | ok, just wondering |
| 16:56 | kados | I did try media wiki |
| 16:56 | for the record | |
| 16:57 | Burgwork | moin is probably more applicable |
| 16:57 | kados | but basically, I would be the only one who could manage it :-) |
| 16:57 | haven't seen that one | |
| 16:57 | chris | i wonder why my password got sent hmm |
| 16:57 | kados | would it have any advantages over doku? |
| 16:58 | Burgwork | wiki.ubuntu.com live.gnome.org and wiki.fedora.org all use moin |
| 16:58 | more features, nicer to use | |
| 16:58 | active development. python | |
| 16:58 | http://old.koha.org/about/map/ <-- redoing this interests me | |
| 16:58 | no using googles API, however | |
| 17:01 | kados | what features do they have, how are they nicer? :_) |
| 17:01 | why not google api? :-) | |
| 17:01 | Burgwork | visual look, mostly |
| 17:01 | the google maps look like google maps | |
| 17:02 | that old map has a very nice style to it | |
| 17:02 | very simple | |
| 17:03 | kados | well the class working on this has previous experience with google, so that's part of the reason it was chosen |
| 17:03 | chris | it has a nice interface for placing things too .. but the big thing it misses why we stopped using it was a zoom in/out feature |
| 17:03 | kados | sec, phone |
| 17:03 | Burgwork | is there an implementation being worked on? |
| 17:04 | if you did some fancy javascript stuff, you could preload the images/divs, which would speed up the process | |
| 17:05 | be a bit more work todo initially, but it would be pretty easy to maintain | |
| 17:05 | chris | naw, it does what its designed to do (and that wasnt koha maps :-)) |
| 17:06 | Burgwork | very nice |
| 17:06 | kados | this quarter it's the Koha world map |
| 17:06 | and the google api is ideal because it's so easy to learn | |
| 17:06 | and 10 wks isn't long enough for a class to do much more | |
| 17:06 | Burgwork | well, here is another solution: use one of the open source mapping solutions, like kaMaps and add the basic outline to it |
| 17:06 | then you get your mapping with your zoom | |
| 17:07 | kados | we're sorta already committed at this point to google ... but I hear you :-) |
| 17:07 | Burgwork | yep, no worries |
| 17:07 | something is better than nothing | |
| 17:07 | kados | yea, that's just it mainly |
| 17:08 | right ... well I've gotta jet | |
| 17:08 | meeting and all | |
| 17:08 | talk to you chaps later | |
| 17:08 | chris | cya later |
| 17:08 | Burgwork | cya |
