00:37 munin brendan: The current temperature in Northwest Goleta, Goleta, California is 17.3�C (5:33 PM PDT on July 08, 2010). Conditions: Scattered Clouds. Humidity: 73%. Dew Point: 12.0�C. Pressure: 29.89 in 1012.1 hPa (Falling).
00:48 chris_n pianohack: it appears that the old and new system preference editors are both in the current head
00:48 is that a bug?
00:48 pianohack Not sure. We'll probably need to rip some code out of that to bring back local-use preferences for a bit
00:49 * chris_n was sort of looking at that issue
00:49 chris_n however, it seems that the old code should be removed
00:49 ie. systempreferences.pl
00:49 and friends
00:50 pianohack yup
00:50 chris_n unless they can cohabit nicely
00:50 pianohack They can
00:50 But there's no reason for them to

07:54 frido hello word
07:55 I have a question about search behaviour of KOHA
07:56 paul joined #koha
07:59 frido I noticed that when performing a search on ISBN index, query doesn't contains the ISBN attribut (@att 1=7)
08:00 It is simply the operand
08:00 Is it a normal behaviour ?
08:12 hdl frido: where ?
08:13 on z3950 cataloguing page ?
08:16 frido hie, no simply on OPAC search in header
08:17 I talk about C4/Search.pm
08:42 hdl frido: should be mapped to isbn
08:42 strange
08:46 frido In Search.pm, the ISBN index "nb" is detected and : elsif ( $index eq 'nb' ...
08:46 in this case, $indexes_set is set to 1.
08:47 it meens that the index is already in query (usefull for weighted queries)
08:47 That's why index 'nb' is not in query
08:48 $query .= " $index_plus " unless $indexes_set;
08:49 same behaviour with 'yr', 'acqdate' and 'ns'
08:50 (I use 3.2 alpha 2)

09:28 jransom evening all
09:29 chris hiya jransom, great blog post, hopefully that will finally end the spread of lies
09:29 jransom I tried to make it clear
09:30 because you know sometimes it seems don't understand plain english
09:30 chris it does seem that way
09:31 jransom and wanted it clear that Jane was not involved
09:31 chris yup
09:31 larsw I'm losing contact with the Koha world---could someone give me the url to the blog post?
09:31 chris http://library-matters.blogspo[…]t-for-record.html
09:32 heya lars :) was just talking about you at beer oclock, how we should meet up for lunch again :)
09:32 larsw chris, yes, we should :)
09:33 jransom we have 1 place left on the KohaCon roadtrip if you hear of anyone that wants to join us
09:35 chris ill keep my ears out
09:36 jransom thanks :)
09:36 larsw jransom, well written
09:37 jransom thanks Lars - too tired to pussy foot around and want the lies stopped dead.
09:39 paul hi jransom chris & lars
09:40 FYI : Nimes public library is live (500k items), a PR should be written soon
09:40 chris hiya paul
09:40 congrats!

09:40 cat = catalogue, bib = biblioth�que (library in french)
09:41 jransom Well done you!
09:42 larsw jransom, I've had two employers go bankrupt -- the process is extremely ripe for rumours, and the one things that works to battle rumors is strong, repeated pushing of facts
09:42 paul, congratulations
09:48 frido hdl : do you confirm ?
09:50 hdl frido: I donot know. All I know is that I reported that a patch to detect ccl queries made troubles. But since I was not able to send unit test about that, patch is not reverted.
09:58 frido Ok, thanks
09:58 I may ask this in mailling list

12:30 nengard if i want a count of circ stats for the 4th of july - what is wrong with this line? I'm too tired to figure it out :)
12:30 SELECT statistics.proccode as action, COUNT(statistics.datetime) as count FROM statistics WHERE DATE(statistics.datetime)= '2010-07-04' GROUP BY statistics.proccode
12:31 nevermind
12:31 i'm an idiot
12:33 druthb naah, it's just early.
12:34 nengard SELECT statistics.type as action, COUNT(statistics.datetime) as count FROM statistics WHERE DATE(statistics.datetime)='2010-07-06' GROUP BY statistics.type;
12:34 they didn't want the 4th
12:34 they wanted the first day after the 4th
12:35 and no clue what proccode is
12:37 owen I don't think it is used
12:37 sekjal the statistics table is kind of funky
12:37 owen No I take it back
12:37 It's only used for payments it seems

14:29 nengard owen, not me
14:36 wizzyrea ok, sql nub question
14:36 we have this report
14:36 and we cna't remember why we have this 1=1 construct in there
14:36 SELECT itemtype, items.location, COUNT(*) FROM statistics LEFT JOIN borrowers ON statistics.borrowernumber=borrowers.borrowernumber LEFT JOIN items ON statistics.itemnumber=items.itemnumber WHERE 1=1 AND datetime >= concat(date_format(LAST_DAY(now() - interval 1 month),'%Y-%m-'),'01') AND datetime <= LAST_DAY(now() - interval 1 month)AND statistics.branch LIKE '$TOWN' AND statistics.type IN ('issue', 'renew' 'localuse') GROUP BY itemtype,
14:36 items.location order by itemtype,items.location
14:37 is it shorthand for something?
14:38 jcamins It's a query optimization of some sort, I think.
14:38 owen You sometimes see the "1=1" in a script which is building the WHERE statement in pieces and it's not sure how many "AND"s there are going to be
14:39 wizzyrea ah, thanks you just triggered my memory
14:39 jcamins owen's right, not me.
14:39 In this case, the rest of the query is already optimized.
14:48 wizzyrea it would stand to reason, since we pulled this off of a canned report CSV
14:48 (now I remember, thanks)
14:50 jcamins My most recent bug report could apparently be applied to just about any ILS.
14:55 wizzyrea which bug?
14:55 this isn't the "it doesn't read my mind" bug is it? ;)
14:55 jcamins Bug 4480
14:55 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=4480 normal, P5, ---, gmcharlt, NEW, MARC21 033 tag and Zebra date indexing
14:56 jcamins I had it marked as an enhancement, but it's definitely a bug, because the standard says that 033 should be searchable.
14:56 So I changed it to a bug. Then I thought I'd see how other ILSes implement it. And it turns out they don't.
14:57 wizzyrea HA. well if we get it fixed, then that would make koha the only ils (that you tested) that follows the standard >.>
14:57 in that regard
14:57 jcamins Which would definitely be a good thing from a PR point of view.
14:57 owen I can see the ad copy now: Searches 033!
14:57 wizzyrea of course :)
14:58 kf :)
14:59 jcamins We also are well on our way to doing a better job with 76x-78x fields than other ILSes.
15:01 wizzyrea this is the kind of thing we should leverage for further encouraging the use of koha-community.org
15:01 http://feedproxy.google.com/~r[…]b/~3/Dp7cQYHnvmg/
15:01 harness the power of reddit users :P
15:04 owen I wonder if our sense of the injustice would be shared
15:04 wizzyrea well that is a valid concern
15:05 jcamins owen: was I talking with you about how useful a "duplicate item" button would be?
15:05 Because it looks like I filed bug 4533 almost two months ago and forgot about it.
15:05 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=4533 enhancement, P5, ---, paul.poulain, NEW, Add "duplicate item" link when editing items
15:05 owen I was saying a "Save as new" button would be nice when you have an item open for editing
15:06 Well... at least the bug is there :)
15:06 * owen will keep refreshing the page every minute to see if someone has fixed it
15:06 jcamins Yeah, that's what I was picturing for the "duplicate item" button.

15:36 mib_doj47 no problem.....I will loiter for a while!
15:44 hdl mib_doj47: yes you just have to change the koha-conf.xml to point to the zebra-authorities.cfg iirc.
15:47 mib_doj47 um, its already pointing there though, in GRS-1 mode, is there another zebra-authorities-dom.cfg ??

17:27 icebreake hi all
17:27 i have a query
17:28 one of my friend has a book publishing company
17:28 last night i was talking about koha
17:28 and.. he asked me.. If he can use koha for his publishing business?
17:28 i mean.. as a software in book publishing company... is it possible for him to use Koha?
17:28 the point is.. he don`t need any marc entry there in Koha
17:29 can you guys help me out to find this answer?
17:30 owen icebreake: Koha is designed a library catalog and circulation system
17:31 If that's what he wants, then sure.
17:31 But Koha isn't going to track inventory and sales and stuff like that
17:37 icebreake is there any other open source software for book publishers?
17:37 just asking
17:38 owen I don't think you'll find any book publishers here :)
17:38 icebreake :) i know
17:38 as you people are with open source world
17:38 that`s why asking. :D

18:17 owen Yes
18:17 collum hmm?
18:18 owen collum: So your Zotero saved the title as "Library Mashups: Exploring New Ways to Deliver Library Data" instead of "Library mashupsexploring new ways to deliver library data"
18:18 collum Yep.
18:18 owen What version of Firefox and what version of the Zotero addon?
18:19 I've got Firefox 3.6.6 and Zotero 2.0.3
