15:37 kados morning owen
15:38 I bet
15:38 owen I would have been out anyway, because my daughter's sick.
15:39 anyway, what's new?
15:39 kados oh, not much, just got to the office
15:39 running a bit late today, snow and all
15:40 nice job on the UI changes yesterday
15:45 owen kados, are you having the same problems that chris describes in bug 1620?
15:46 kados lemme check
15:48 I can renew from circulation.pl
15:48 so I think it's fixed now
15:48 I'll close the bug out -- chris can reopen if he's still having trouble
16:04 wow, a CGIIRC user, been a long time since we've had one of those :-)
16:04 CGI996: welcome! :-)
16:05 CGI996 IH
16:06 HELLOOOOOOOOO
16:06 01
16:06 CAN ANY BODY HELP ME
16:06 owen Sure, if you turn off caps-lock ;)
16:10 CGI996 I HAVE PROBLEM WHILE INSTALLATION KOHA IT GIVES ERROR  "COULD NOT FIND APACHE EXECUTABLE, AT THE LOCATION SPECIFIED IN THE REGISTRY: \BIN    PLS CHECK TO BE SURE APACHE IS INSTALLED CORRECTLY
16:10 ok
16:10 fbcit g'morning koha
16:11 kados hiya fbcit
16:11 fbcit: spoke with paul earlier today, he may be around to help with your search issue
16:11 CGI996 apache version is apache_2.0.47-win32-x86-no_ssl(2).msi on win98se
16:11 fbcit k
16:11 kados CGI996: I'd recommend writing an email to koha-win32
16:12 CGI996: none of us (that I know of) have any experience running Koha on windows
16:12 owen fbcit, there's plenty just on our roads for you. Then we can keep the pretty stuff on the lawn.
16:12 CGI996 ok
16:13 ok
16:13 ok
16:14 gmcharlt fbcit: mostly been doing a lot of thinking about it
16:15 right now working on a more coherent directory structure to post to koha-devel
16:15 owen CGI996: Do you have the address? http://lists.nongnu.org/mailma[…]stinfo/koha-win32
16:15 fbcit gmcharlt: I would agree that that needs to be standardized first.
16:16 gmcharlt also consider use of something like App::Build instead of ExtUtils::MakeMaker, which is a little too geared to installing just Perl modules
16:18 appears to be relatively new; need to determine if it is stable enough to actually use
16:20 fbcit I notice it is based on Module::Build
16:44 gmcharlt fbcit: yep
17:57 fbcit gmcharlt, kados: it seems that DublinCore is rather limited in its vocabulary
17:58 or maybe I'm lacking in imagination :-)
18:15 kados bbiab
18:34 fbcit gmcharlt: u around?
18:34 gmcharlt fbcit: yep
18:34 fbcit gmcharlt: are you familiar with these guys? http://scla.net/
18:35 gmcharlt can't say that I am
18:35 fbcit it appears that they have some experience in MARC21 cataloging of MP3 files
18:36 specifically with id3v2 related data.
18:37 gmcharlt: am I dense or does dc lack in extensiveness of vocabulary?
18:38 gmcharlt fbcit: yes it does
18:38 but that's its point: to be a least common denominator
18:38 fbcit I see a lack of atomicity when compared to id3v2
18:39 gmcharlt is a summary of SCLA's MP3 workshop around somewhere?
18:39 fbcit so multiple fields/tags of one standard are placed in a single field/tag of DC?
18:40 om
18:40 gmcharlt: http://cats.suffolk.lib.ny.us/powerpoint/MP3/
18:41 gmcharlt fbcit: basically yes AFAIK, although I think having multple dc.subject elements (e.g.,) is fine
18:47 fbcit: alas, doesn't seem to provide even the beginnings of a crosswalk from id3v2 to MARC
18:53 fbcit gmcharlt: on second look they only appear to use the title info from id3v2... :-\
18:53 gmcharlt fbcit: something that might be relevant: http://musicbrainz.org/MM/
18:54 some site also mentions a PicardTagger program for working with id3v2 tags
18:56 same site, rather
18:59 fbcit I'm taking a closer look at the MM site. It might provide more insight into id3v2<=>dc mapping.
19:03 gmcharlt: looks like their using another metadata set (RDF) in conjunction with DC to arrive at their solution.
19:03 gmcharlt right, DC often shows up in RDF in general
19:10 fbcit interesting, DC to MARC crosswalk shows repetition of DC fields for different MARC tags (as you noted earlier)...
19:13 err.. MARC to CD rather
