| 13:51 | dewey | you are helping us LibLime folk with something at the moment |

| 13:51 | dewey | OK, kados. |
| 13:51 | kados | :-) |
| 13:51 | hdl: what's up? | |
| 13:52 | hdl | hi busy. |
| 13:52 | kados | hehe |
| 13:52 | not really today | |
| 13:52 | hdl | I was working on installer (at last.) |
| 13:52 | kados | ahh, great! |
| 13:52 | hdl | 1st : |
| 13:52 | adding syspref Version. | |
| 13:53 | kados | hdl++ |
| 13:53 | hdl | (But it will be in updatedatabase) |
| 13:53 | kados | (and in sql defs I hope?) |
| 13:53 | hdl | And devs should consider upgrading it on each release. |
| 13:54 | kados : not yet. | |
| 13:54 | kados | ahh, I see |
| 13:54 | hdl | But shoudl also. |
| 13:54 | paul | hello kados & al |
| 13:54 | hdl | Two questions : Do you want to redirect opac to install page when not web installer is not processed? |
| 13:55 | hi paul | |
| 13:55 | paul | kados: if you're not that busy, feel free to give us some news of YUI ? |
| 13:55 | hdl | paul +++ |
| 13:55 | kados | sure |
| 13:55 | paul | I should commit a HUGE circualtion commit before leaving. |
| 13:55 | kados | first I will say, ++ on your email |
| 13:55 | I just read it | |
| 13:55 | paul | you can answer as well ;-) |
| 13:55 | kados | I will shortly :-) |
| 13:55 | regarding YUI ... | |
| 13:56 | ryan and I have spent much time analysing Koha from a usability standpoint | |
| 13:56 | and we have found that most functions can be broken down into several catagories: | |
| 13:56 | upper-level nav (cataloging, circulation, administration, etc.) | |
| 13:56 | (to go to each major module) | |
| 13:57 | 'actions' such as 'create new borrower', 'delete borrower' | |
| 13:58 | hdl | second : what could we do to make installer more version aware that is : A version 3.0 is installed and we have here version 3.1 so lets do 3.0 to 3.1 ... |
| 13:58 | kados | 'views' such as simple / detail / fines, etc. |
| 13:58 | hdl++ | |
| 13:59 | hdl: yes, that's a great idea | |
| 13:59 | paul: the final type is 'sub-nav' elements that are 'places' within each upper-level nav | |
| 14:00 | what we are doing is breaking down every 'link' or 'button' in Koha and categorizing it into that scheme | |
| 14:01 | and that will make the process of building the interface quite simple | |
| 14:01 | anyway ... I should go to the office now | |
| 14:01 | hdl | (sorry to disturb... great idea but little thoughts about how to realize with the current structure.) |
| 14:01 | kados | hdl: yui makes it quite simple to realize |
| 14:02 | hdl | are you planning to commit members soon ? |
| 14:02 | kados | yes |
| 14:02 | it has undergone two revisions | |
| 14:02 | the first revision was before we had the 'breakthrough' | |
| 14:02 | of how to best categorize | |
| 14:02 | now that we understand that, I'm almost done with the second revision | |
| 14:02 | (in fact, the same process happened with the search API) | |
| 14:03 | hdl | (I was talking about installer handling updating) |
| 14:03 | kados | ahh |
| 14:03 | hehe | |
| 14:03 | sorry | |
| 14:03 | yes, I have an idea | |
| 14:03 | the koha code should store a version string somewhere | |
| 14:03 | as well as store in the db | |
| 14:03 | so that the installer, if it finds a db, can check the version string, and then compare to the one in the code | |
| 14:04 | (perhaps you can give it a path to the code for the upgrade when starting or sth) | |
| 14:04 | hehe | |
| 14:04 | what would be really cool, though probably not very platform independent | |
| 14:05 | would be to allow someone to download the new version on their desktop | |
| 14:05 | hdl | yes. |
| 14:05 | kados | then, to upgrade, go to installer, and click on 'upload new version' :-) |
| 14:05 | but it's not platform independent I'm afraid :/ | |
| 14:05 | anyway, I should go to the office | |
| 14:05 | I'll bbiab | |
| 14:05 | hdl | ok. |
| 14:11 | paul | hdl : ton tel stp |
