06:10 nicomo hum... you didn't push the BBQ a bit too strong, did you?

11:35 chris_n g'morning all
11:36 jwagner joined #koha
11:41 chris_n hey jwagner
11:41 jwagner Morning, chris_n
11:41 nengard joined #koha
11:41 hdl_laptop hi jwagner
11:42 chris_n and america
11:42 and all
11:42 jwagner Bonjour hdl_laptop
11:44 chris_n heya hdl_laptop
11:44 and an extra good morning to nengard
11:45 nengard aww well good morning to you all too :)
11:46 magnus hm, i was looking for a script to do batch anonymization of readinghistory (to be run from cron), but couldn't find one. did i miss something?
11:49 paul_p hello world
11:50 chris_n howdy paul_p
11:51 * chris_n is glad to see support companies and clients committing publicly to contribute new devs back to the community
11:52 magnus yeah, that was a very good newsletter - looking forward to the described enhancements!
11:53 paul_p mmm... nengard should have fixed my poor english :'(((
11:53 nengard i'm sorry paul - I can still edit it :( I was rushing to get it out on time
11:54 hdl_laptop magnus : there is online
11:54 paul_p nengard, feel free, as i'm sure there are a lot of mistakes/misspelled/misworded/miswhatever things !
11:54 hdl_laptop it is in tools
11:55 magnus hdl_laptop: i know, but i was looking for something to run from cron
11:56 hdl_laptop should be written in cleanup_database in misc/cronjobs
11:56 magnus with the new privacy settings, norwegian libraries will probably have to anonymize at least once a day, and that sounds more like a job for cron than the intranet... ;-)
11:57 jdavidb joined #koha
11:57 hdl_laptop once a day ????
11:57 magnus yeah, cleanup_database might be a good place for it
11:57 chris_n magnus: can you just call the correct script used in the staff client side?
11:58 chris yeah you could just curl it
11:58 with a cron job
11:58 #!/bin/sh
11:59 hdl_laptop chris he would have to be authenticated
11:59 magnus the ideal is that returned loans are anonymized imediately on return - if there was some way to set default privacy to 2 that would probably be best, anonymizing daily is a good second best
11:59 chris yep you can do that with curl
11:59 chris_n you can authenticate too
11:59 snap
12:00 * chris_n thinks chris is up late or early depending on the prospective
12:00 chris late, havent gone to sleep yet
12:00 otoh i now have my dev koha searching the local db and project gutenberg using pazpar2 and groupng the results nicely
12:01 chris_n very nice
12:01 jdavidb chris++
12:01 chris_n is it hard to setup?
12:01 * magnus will look into automating anonymization with curl
12:02 chris chris_n: no
12:02 you just edit hte pazpar2 conf, add another target
12:02 and switch the systempreference to use pazpar2 to search
12:03 the gotcha is, it uses the fieldmapping table
12:03 so you have to populate that
12:03 for at least subtitle
12:04 chris_n does koha have an interface for populating that table?
12:04 chris yep
12:04 in the admin section
12:06 the nice thing is, you could build a union catalogue really easy with it
12:07 where it breaks down, is doing complicated searches
12:08 but for the opac it works well
12:08 * chris_n runs off to try it

14:45 wizzyrea hey nengard: i like the idea of people adding their "what's coming" posts to the newsletter, that's awesome
14:45 nengard i like it too :)
14:45 wizzyrea nengard++
14:45 nengard not everyone reads the RFCs in the wiki
14:45 whereas a lot of people see the newsletter
14:46 wizzyrea ^^ and it would be SO COOL if the rfc's in the wiki were linked from the newsletter. I
14:46 (if existent, of course(
14:46 )
14:46 )
14:46 sorry, I can't leave them open like that
14:46 >.<
14:51 owen :D

14:52 ...
14:54 chris_n rfcs_linked_to_newsletter++

15:04 ;) j/k
15:04 * jdavidb wonders....if he puts a space in the : ), is it no longer a :) anymore, that would cause wizzyrea to twitch...
15:13 * jwagner wonders what poor wizzyrea has done to deserve all this!

15:27 wizzyrea owen: for whatever reason this made me think of you (something about the headline) http://consumerist.com/2010/04[…]em-delicious.html
15:28 * owen growls "They'll eat what's put in front of them and they'll like it!"
15:29 wizzyrea lol
15:30 favorite line: "you’re afraid they’ll balk at trying the store brands, save those name-brand boxes and put the store brand bags inside them." Seriously?
15:31 owen You never know what kids are going to latch on to: the other day my son demanded I give him cereal from the unopened box, *not* the opened one.
15:32 wizzyrea Fair enough, i guess I haven't gotten to the "quirky request" stage
15:32 unless you count going shopping for a blue whale, if you count that we're already there
15:32 * jwagner wonders WHERE one goes shopping for a blue whale....
15:32 wizzyrea "spud, what did you do today?" "I wen shop for boo wale!"
15:33 sitter doesn't know where it came from either. Just loves whales I guess.
15:33 anyway, enough off topic >.>
15:35 jwagner Nonsense.  We LIVE for off-topic!
15:35 owen Lately morning around here have been 100% water cooler
15:35 jdavidb Spud is never off-topic.  But don't tell him that.

16:08 owen Oh no, no more nicomo? Say it ain't so!

16:09 nicomo what do you mean no nicomo? I'm not dying, am I?
16:09 don't scare the **** out of me like that owen
16:09 :-)
16:09 owen I think if the news were that bad you'd be the first to know!
16:10 nicomo or not
16:10 ;-)
16:10 wizzyrea so you are leaving biblibre?
16:12 nicomo well, not right away
16:12 probably july
16:12 it's been a great and fun ride, I have to say
16:12 wizzyrea :( we will miss you
16:12 but not yet!
16:13 nicomo both BibLibre and the Koha community will have a special place in my heat
16:13 heart is what i meant
16:13 that wasn't "a job", more of an adventure
16:13 wizzyrea :D
16:13 nicomo :D
16:14 but I think it's actually a good evolution for BibLibre : that will strengthen the company, and thus Koha
16:18 magnus_away is now known as magnus
16:20 * chris_n wonders if magnus is having to sweep ash off of his porch
16:21 * wizzyrea was wondering the same thing
16:21 magnus chris_n: not yet, just sleet so far...
16:21 chris_n how far are you from the volcano?
16:23 magnus about 1.600 kilometers according to google earth
16:26 paul_p wizzyrea, & owen : hopefully that may mean I'll be more present in the community, as Philippe should take care of some things I was doing. At least that's what I expect (+ we are on our way to hire 3 new ppl in the next weeks)
16:27 which, I hope, you'll consider as a good news ;-)
16:27 wizzyrea I DO, I so do.
16:27 owen I think that's great news paul_p
16:27 wizzyrea ya
16:27 speaking of which
16:28 does biblibre have a feed for news items?
16:28 < would like to add it to the website if so
16:29 paul_p wizzyrea, http://www.biblibre.com/en/blog
16:29 should give you the RSS feed isn't it ?
16:30 owen Yes paul_p, but interesting that the individual post page doesn't
16:31 nicomo -> to fix
16:33 magnus chris_n, wizzyrea: me and the volcano: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms[…]844901199874d79aa
16:34 wizzyrea I like that map
16:34 chris_n a good deal of water between you and it :)
16:34 wizzyrea I didn't realize you were so far north :)
16:34 * owen wishes there were a "me" on that map too
16:36 magnus i think we are quite safe from the actual eruption, yes, but noone knows how long the ash will keep pouring into the air.
16:36 wizzyrea oh yea, you probably won't be scorched by hot lava lol
16:37 paul_p time to leave for me (& go with my 1st son at cell phone vendor :'((( )

17:15 wizzyrea mmm, now that, I cannot get into
17:15 :?
17:15 :/
17:16 nengard left #koha
17:16 jdavidb Most organizing systems start from the mission-and-vision, and that confuses geeky people a lot; Allen starts from organizing the daily ho-hums, and works *up.*  Much more sensible, to me anyway.

19:41 nengard new Koha YouTube Group http://www.youtube.com/group/kohails -- well not new apparently I created it ages ago and never added anything to it - so now it has 26 videos I found on YouTube for Koha - so if I missed any add yours - and feel free to join the group
19:41 I also set one up on Vimeo to be fair - but there is only one video on there ... http://vimeo.com/channels/kohails
19:41 wizzyrea omg, that is awesoms
19:41 awesome, even
19:41 nengard :)
19:41 it's really really hard to search for Koha videos on youtube
19:41 cause there are other kohas
19:41 so i was getting annoyed
19:42 i did my best to find them all
19:42 I'll email the list of course as well
19:42 and do a blog post
19:43 chris_n are there any other vim addicts in the room?
19:43 wizzyrea :D I added it to the links
19:43 chris_n nengard++ # for the videos

20:45 thought wizzyrea was the one that restarted, just before a meeting, due to os updates?
20:45 wizzyrea no sir
20:45 chris nope, wizzyrea is in kansas, and runs the koha-community.org website
20:45 wizzyrea ^^
20:45 (US)
20:46 genji ah... my bad memory again..
20:46 * wizzyrea pats genji
20:46 wizzyrea it's ok
20:47 genji bad thought, a restart could happen, and ops could go to a auto-reconnect lurker.
20:47 chris yep
20:48 not really a problem
20:48 wizzyrea it'd be munin or something
20:49 chris if it became a problem, ie a hostile entity got ops, iptables would fix that
20:50 genji .... #gitconspiracy?
20:50 * magnus just added a couple more koha-funnies to the youtube group
20:51 genji koha-funnies?
20:51 * wizzyrea goes to look
20:53 chris_n chris: yup, after a bit of a tussle figuring out where all the __VARS__ were that needed to be sub'd out :)
20:53 chris ah yep ;)
20:54 chris_n added archive.org as well
20:54 although the results screen wants a little work on formating
20:56 magnus genji: i think someone said the non-english ones were funny... ;-)
20:56 genji huh?
20:56 whats a koha-funny?
20:56 magnus or words to that effect
20:56 chris he missed the koha videos bit i think
20:56 http://www.youtube.com/group/kohails
20:56 genji
20:56 genji haven't seen them.. thanks.
20:57 chris 07:57 < rhcl> some of the foreign vids are funny
20:57 * chris finishes with the context ;)
