00:41 ebegin I'm trying to figure out what the autorised value is used for on when we edit a MARC Field (not a subfield).
00:42 The screen displays: if you select a value here, the indicators will be limited to the authorized value list
00:43 But selecting an autorised value from the list doesn't change anythink in my cataloging screen... ?!

01:26 darling history page probably wants an update - http://koha-community.org/about/history/
01:26 for the 3.2rc
01:27 good afternoon koha peeps
01:28 robin darling: no, I think the history page ends at the perfect location. On a high note :)
01:30 yhager joined #koha
01:32 yhager Has anybody seen wajasu around here recently? I found him on the irc logs talking about an arch package for koha - and I would like to contact him on this
01:32 robin @seen wajasu
01:32 munin robin: wajasu was last seen in #koha 6 days, 21 hours, 22 minutes, and 34 seconds ago: <wajasu> would be nice to have the utf8 label thing solved.  my librarian edits records to not have diacritics and prints a lebel then edits things back. slow and errorprone workaround.
01:33 yhager robin: cool, thanks. Can munin pass messages when he arrives? (like tell wajasu bla bla bla)
01:33 robin @later tell yhager sure can
01:33 munin robin: The operation succeeded.
01:34 yhager robin: thx
01:34 heh, it works
01:34 robin :)
01:34 yhager @later tell wajasu I am working on an AUR package for koha, and all the perl deps. Let me know if you want to cooperate. yhager at yhager dot com
01:34 munin yhager: The operation succeeded.
01:35 robin yhager: I do the debian packages, if that's useful for anything.
01:36 you might be able to reuse/modify as needed the scripts that are in there.
01:45 yhager robin: most of the work is getting those perl deps packaged. I could use the deb scripts for the other parts though. link?
01:46 robin yhager: they're all in the debian/ subdir in git.
01:54 logbot joined #koha
01:54 Topic for #koha is now Happy 3.2.0 Release Candidate day
01:59 yhager robin: but this should be an interactive step, shouldn't it? or do you just take the defaults (I am sorry, dunno how to read deb packaging scripts)
02:00 robin It's debian magic, I'm not completely sure what it's doing on the inside. I think it probably is telling the makefile to be non-interactive.
02:03 yhager robin: ok, so it probably just accepts the defaults. I was just wondering what is the "right" way to do this
02:04 robin yeah, I think the defaults are all appropriate, and if you need something changed, you can do it as part of the package.
02:09 yhager robin: great, thx
02:24 darling yhager, by the way - pocket sized arm style koha <- very slick
02:24 looking forward to that

06:48 larsw I am entirely sure the national library of aldebaraan is using Koha...
06:48 chris hehe
06:49 larsw hi, paul_p
06:49 chris, nope, hadn't seen that
06:50 paul_p larsw, really ? so that's true. Because I know for sure that the KRL (Klingon Research Library) uses Koha too...

07:23 robin, maybe you could add a comment to the link above to indicate the current status of Koha Debian packaging?
07:25 chris good idea
07:25 theres still an itp floating around somewhere too
07:25 maybe slef knows where it is, i think he commented on it last

07:45 anything you tag #kohacon10 should show up there
07:46 magnus chris: cool!
07:47 chris im hoping to recruit some ppl to do some running commentary during the days too
07:47 for the people who cant make it
07:47 magnus is it "just" twitter or are there other sources?
07:50 chris it only watches twitter automatically, but i can add up to 30 'panelists' who can type into it, and anyone can make a comment
07:50 magnus ah, i see
07:51 i'll probably be twittering a lot...
07:52 chris :)
07:56 magnus chris: ig my memory serves me right there has been talk about video and streaming, how is that going?
07:57 s/ig/if/
08:01 chris and for ppl who dont want to deal with flash or whatever its using
08:01 http://rss.coveritlive.com/rss[…]t_code=7bd531d726
08:01 yeah, not gonna happen
08:01 way too expensive to do live streaming in any useful manner
08:01 but we do plan to video all the presentations, with the speakers permission that is
08:02 magnus cool
08:03 and put them on youtube or vimeo or something?
08:05 chris something like that
08:05 ogv files for download maybe
08:05 ill leave that to the smart people who understand that stuff
08:06 magnus good plan! ;-)

09:44 janPasi hi all
09:44 would someone have time to help me a bit with Koha's search?
09:47 slef Hi. I expect it depends how.
10:01 janPasi Well...
10:03 for example this: http://koha.kepa.fi/cgi-bin/ko[…]biblionumber=3190 can be searched without typing the accents on characters
10:04 however this one cannot: http://koha.kepa.fi/cgi-bin/ko[…]biblionumber=3051
10:05 the latter biblio seems to be "odd" in some other ways too. It has ended up in our system through Z39.50 and it doesn't have anything on 003 field
10:06 if i try to fill a value to 003 field and save, i get "production mode trapped fatal error"
10:06 it also has some really weird characters in 710a field
10:07 but it cannot be fixed because it refuses to be saved
10:07 that's problem number one
10:08 slef If you get "production mode trapped fatal error" then check the error log.
10:08 janPasi i'm not sure how many biblios like this there are in the system at the moment, but it has gone quite unstable
10:08 slef I think accent problems are to do with zebra search engine configuration.
10:08 Are you sure you have everything running in utf-8?
10:09 janPasi well, yes and no
10:09 kmkale joined #koha
10:09 janPasi our system is pure utf-8, but we have some biblios from the national library
10:09 kmkale hi all
10:09 janPasi and that's a real strange bird
10:09 slef Also if the biblio ended up in your system through Z39.50, it might be that the MARC record is corrupt, or that a wrong encoding was declared for it (Z39.50 does not disclose encoding in-band).
10:09 All this is from memory and my memory is not great.
10:09 janPasi national library uses a Voyager system and they form the accented characters weirdly
10:10 Fred joined #koha
10:10 slef Can you get to the biblio through the librarian cataloguing editor?
10:10 janPasi techically it's utf-8, but...
10:10 yep, i can edit it, but not save
10:11 Fred Hi, got a question about overdue_notices.pl and the way it uses patrons emails
10:11 slef janPasi: Can you look at its MARC view and see any corrupt characters?
10:11 Fred: I can't help for an hour. Perhaps someone else can.
10:11 janPasi slef: yes i can
10:12 slef janPasi: you need to delete or correct the corrupt chars. Worst case, it will need the MARC in the database cleaning and I don't have a nice tool for that.
10:13 janPasi that's a bit what i was afraid of... :(
10:13 slef (I've an idea how to make a nice tool for that, but no funding.)
10:13 janPasi the funding is always the problem :D
10:13 slef (I really should open an enh request describing it, so either it will get funding or someone else will just make it.)
10:13 janPasi but how can i correct the characters when i cannot save the biblio?
10:14 slef play with mysql directly (marc and marcxml columns in biblioitems)
10:14 janPasi i have an edited version with corrected characters on my screen, but there is the "production mode trapped fatal error" problem
10:15 slef check the error log
10:15 and/or change DebugLevel system preference while you solve this
10:15 janPasi ok, i'll see about that
10:15 so how can i access zebra's config?
10:16 i also need to make it search some fields that it doesn't search by default
10:16 Fred the script seems to work fine but it does not put email address into 'to_address' table...making sendings failed
10:19 slef janPasi: /etc/koha/zebra in a standard installation IIRC
10:20 janPasi ok, thx slef :)
10:21 magnus or /etc/koha/zebradb to be precise
10:23 slef oh well, I was close :)
10:25 janPasi well... i think i would have been able to figure that out :D
10:25 this is in error log: [Tue Oct 12 13:11:04 2010] [error] [client 84.248.124.46] [Tue Oct 12 13:11:04 2010] addbiblio.pl: Wide character in null operation at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5​.8.8/MARC/Charset/Table.pm line 96., referer: http://koha.kepa.fi:8080/cgi-b[…]=3051&amp;amp;op=
10:26 does it say anything to you?
10:28 Fred left #koha
10:28 slef janPasi: yes, bad encording :-/
10:28 OpenUser joined #koha
10:28 slef encoding
10:29 janPasi: I think if you look at mysql biblioitems.marcxml where biblionumber=3051, it will be truncated.
10:30 janPasi how can i do that?
10:30 i'm logged in mysql as root and using koha database
10:30 but how can i see that?
10:32 OpenUser left #koha
10:32 slef janPasi: select marcxml from biblioitems where biblionumber=3051; again, this is from memory.
10:32 Barrc joined #koha
10:32 janPasi i could pastebin the output, hang on
10:34 http://pastebin.com/TzZW9V6v
10:35 slef janPasi: OK, I was wrong, that looks complete.
10:35 janPasi seems ok by me too
10:35 could it be a problem in marc leader?
10:35 this is what i have in 000: 01111ncm a22002897i 45000
10:36 this is 008: 970702s1992    ru            000 | rus
10:36 slef janPasi: so you need to edit 245$a 260$a and $b 300$a 500$a 505$a 710$b 740$a at least before saving it.
10:36 janPasi but those fields contain only valid utf-8 characters, i think?
10:38 yep, it seems that way to me
10:38 710a is faulty in the pastebin, but it's fixed on my screen
10:39 and so is 245b
10:40 slef janPasi: ok... pastebin claimed to be UTF-8 :-/
10:40 janPasi: I doubt this is a leader problem but I'm not sure what it is without looking more closely, sorry.  A wide character error is almost always an encoding FU.
10:41 janPasi i think it gets confused with that record because it has mixed charset
10:41 or something
10:42 magnus janPasi: i think i have seen errors like this that i solved (?) by editing the leader
10:42 my notes tell me that "00181     2200085   4500" worked but "     nam a22     2  4500" gave errors similar to yours
10:43 i have not gotten to the bottom of that problem yet, though...
10:43 slef I'm bowing out. Happy hunting.
10:44 janPasi ok, thanks for all your help :)
10:44 where exactly is character encoding defined in the leader?
10:44 i.e. which position/value?
10:45 slef @marc LDR
10:45 munin slef: unknown tag LDR
10:45 slef @marc leader
10:45 munin slef: unknown tag leader

10:48 magnus sorry, that was auth, this is biblio:
10:48 http://www.loc.gov/marc/biblio[…]hic/bdleader.html
10:48 janPasi well that's correct then
10:48 a=utf-8

12:59 slef Fred: looking...
12:59 sekjal left #koha
13:05 slef Fred: that's expected behaviour. C4::Letters::_send_message_by_email figures out the to_address from the borrowernumber.  OK?
13:09 Fred yes
13:12 in fact overdue_notices seems to check correctly if there s a email address or no, but does not populate the to_address to make process_message_queue working correctly
13:13 slef Why do you think process_message_queue needs the to_address populated?
13:18 Fred cause value is null, and no emails receiving on testing, but if i write manually the address into to_adress it works fine
13:19 slef is borrowernumber populated?
13:20 Fred yes
13:20 slef Looking at process_message_queue...
13:22 sekjal joined #koha
13:24 slef Fred: I can't see an obvious problem. Does status go to failed?
13:24 Fred: also, do you get a warning when running process_message_queue?
13:24 Fred: finally, what version of Koha is that?
13:26 Fred yep status go to failed but no warning message, i guess it goes to failed status cause process_message did not find any emails
13:27 3.01.00.140
13:29 slef Where did you download that version?  Anyone remind me how to translate db versions to releases?
13:29 sekjal slef: that's about the version for 3.2 beta, I think
13:29 Fred yes
13:30 slef ok, I'm looking at HEAD... I'll switch to rc1
13:31 jcamins_a slef: I think that's around beta 2.
13:31 Good morning, #koha
13:31 slef oh wait
13:31 jcamins_a is now known as jcamins
13:32 slef Fred: do you have an SMTP server listening on your external IP port 25?
13:32 Fred: I'll get you a command to test
13:32 jcamins Wait, maybe I meant alpha 2 (checking...)
13:33 I meant beta.
13:33 There was only one.
13:33 Fred mmm guess so :) was not me installing it, i am not server admin
13:33 slef Fred: try: perl -MMail::Sendmail -e 'print sendmail(To=>"your\@email.address",From​=>"your\@email.address",Subject=>"perl test email",Message=>"test")."\n"; print $Mail::Sendmail::error." - " . $Mail::Sendmail::log."\n"'
13:34 Fred: but replace your\@email.address with your email address, please.
13:38 Fred it works
13:41 slef ok, I'll return to looking
13:42 Fred is it possible that borrowers.email is kind of being protect?
13:44 slef I don't understand the question.
13:46 do you know the borrowernumber?
13:47 try: perl -MC4::Members -e 'print C4::Members::GetFirstValidEmailAddress(1234);' replacing the 1234 with the right number
13:47 Fred ok will try it
13:48 answer for email address is correct
13:52 slef ok, well if you look in C4/Letters.pm you should see that is what it uses
13:53 possible next actions: upgrade to 3.2rc1, run process_message_queue through the perl debugger.
13:53 magnus left #koha
13:54 Fred ok :)
13:55 thanks a lot for your help!
13:56 slef no problems - sorry I can't cure it from here.
13:56 Fred no worry, i got some clues to go on
13:59 wizzyrea oh woot !  I did it right!
13:59 and good morning
13:59 jcamins Good morning.

15:38 slef replied to a PTFS comment on Nicole's blog... I though nengard also worked for biblibre but it's not on http://www.web2learning.net/about-me
15:38 nengard slef when i first left liblime both bywater and biblibre sponsored me to work on the manual - that contract ran out January 1 and I have been a ByWater employee since
15:40 slef oic, no matter, I used myself as an example to rebut the PTFSer.
15:40 jcamins How does one create an ACQ framework?
15:41 Is it just like a regular Framework, with the ID ACQ?
15:45 * owen notices the PTFS supporters never have links associated with their blog comments
15:46 gmcharlt jcamins: that's my understanding, yes
15:46 jcamins Okay, thanks.
15:47 sekjal we need a 'clone framework' button
15:47 wizzyrea ^^^
15:47 that
15:47 slef owen: maybe they're not allowed to have their own brai^H^H^H^Hwebsites.
15:47 wizzyrea yes
15:47 please
15:48 sekjal wizzyrea: added to my list... for what that's worth
15:48 wizzyrea I like your list. Things happen when they get on your list.
15:48 :)
15:49 sekjal :)
15:49 I'm a list-makin' kinda guy
15:52 nengard sekjal and wizzyrea - when you create a new framework it asks which one you want to base it off of - pretty much the same as cloning
15:54 sekjal nengard:  well whatdaya know?  there it is
15:54 nengard :)
15:54 * nengard is the documentation manager - which means she has clicked every possible link in Koha :)
15:54 sekjal it would just be a matter of reordering the workflow a bit
15:54 or putting the creation and duplication pages together
15:55 nengard more important to me is to see a better way to edit framework - easier deletion of fields and subfields etc
15:55 jcamins That is a really confusing way of explaining how the ACQ framework.
15:55 And that is not a sentence.
15:55 wizzyrea but I agree about editing the framework
15:55 it is too many clicks.
15:56 way, way too many
15:56 jcamins The error message it gives you about not having an ACQ framework is very confusing - it doesn't really explain what to do.
15:56 I certainly agree!
15:57 What it means by "the items framework would be used" is "anything that you have set up to display on the items tab in your ACQ framework will show up.
15:57 "
15:57 * jcamins apparently can no longer type
15:58 sekjal I'd like to see the Frameworks a) made easier to edit and b) fully govern the display behaviour of MARC data in the OPAC and staff client
15:58 jcamins I'd also like to see them support indicators.
15:58 Actually, I'd like to see everything support indicators.
15:59 (authorities, etc.)
15:59 gmcharlt sekjal: +1 to making frameworks easier to edit; I disagree about fully governing the display behavior of MARC data, as that effectively locks out XSLT or any other template language without a *lot* of special coding
16:00 jcamins What format is date acquired supposed to be in?
16:00 gmcharlt unless I'm misunderstanding what you meant by the second part of your statement
16:01 sekjal gmcharlt: yes, I understand it would be hard to use XSLT and Frameworks together.  perhaps my idea isn't the best way
16:01 stephane_ left #koha
16:01 sekjal what I want is for librarians to more easily be able to choose what MARC info displays, without having make changes to the codebase (and track those changes for the rest of their system's life)
16:02 perhaps a way to upload custom XSLT, and then select amongst them
16:02 or have the governing XSLT referenced in the 942 somewhere
16:02 ivanc left #koha
16:02 chris_n1 left #koha
16:02 gmcharlt ick (I'd rather not stick yet more presentation metadata into the MARC record)
16:02 but as far as managing XSLT stylesheets
16:03 sticking them in the database and managing them that way could be a win
16:03 sekjal gmcharlt: agreed
16:03 oh, I've got ideas about this....
16:03 gmcharlt we can use memcached during the rendering
16:03 to save on database lookups
16:03 sekjal but if I start rambling, I won't get any actual work done
16:04 jcamins In that case I will save the problems I see with that approach for another day.
16:05 laurence left #koha
16:07 jcamins (although I do agree that the way stylesheets are handled should be changed)
16:10 sekjal what about storing the bibliographic XML (in whatever metadata format, not just MARC), the current stylesheet used, and the output of the application of that stylesheet all in the database together?
16:10 that'd be a lot of data.... but faster to fetch than to render each time, I'd imagine
16:10 jcamins It's an interesting idea, but I think that makes it harder to share stylesheet improvements.
16:11 sekjal the code would have to automatically re-style the HTML any time the XSLT is changed
16:12 rather than the actually XSLT in with the metadata, a link out to the table the XSLTs are stored in
16:12 that's better... normal form and all
16:13 jcamins I think it would be best to compile the HTML JIT. We have 170k records, but only about 1k are going to be viewed any given month. Why rerun the other 174k?
16:14 sekjal so long as there were the proper allowances made for speed, that makes sense to me
16:14 jcamins Err, make that the other 169k.
16:14 gmcharlt sekjal: I'd rather just stick pre-rendered bib output in a cache
16:14 not in the database
16:14 jcamins Right now we're rendering every record every time.
16:15 gmcharlt that way you only render what is actually used
16:15 jcamins But my major objection is that if you store the stylesheets in the database, how do you merge multiple sets of changes?
16:17 gmcharlt jcamins: build in the ability to do diffs, I suppose
16:17 maybe the workflow would be to have a special class of system-supplied templates
16:17 when a library starts using Koha, they wouldn't use a system-supplied template directly, but would use a copy of it
16:17 then when they upgrade, the copy wouldn't be automatically overwritten
16:18 sekjal gmcharlt:  yes, just like that
16:18 have system supplied, and then local use
16:18 gmcharlt but the librarian would have the option to compare the results with any changes to the system-supplied templates
16:18 and apply changes, if needed
16:18 wizzyrea a la wiki revisions?
16:18 gmcharlt one thing that would help that is a abstracting some of the stuff such as generating search links
16:18 chris_n C4::Git ?
16:18 gmcharlt out of the base XSLT templates
16:19 wizzyrea (trying to imagine how that would look to a user)
16:19 gmcharlt and define a set of base template functions (e.g., koha-build-bib-link, koha-build-subject-link, etc.)
16:19 that are invoked by the display templates
16:20 chris_n how about template objects and link building methods?
16:22 bigbrovar left #koha
16:22 jcamins chris_n: i.e., replace XSLT with a domain-specific bibliographic formatting language?
16:24 That seems kind of horrifying. CSL for MARC?
16:25 * chris_n boggles at the complexity of that thought
16:26 chris_n and the thought of how to merge in improvements coming down the pipe from the main repo on a production system
16:26 recalls the nightmares of keeping custom templates in sync :-P
16:26 * wizzyrea shudders remembering her time as a template syncer
16:27 * chris_n still does time in that regard
16:27 * wizzyrea also remembers the relief of the day that 99% of the changes were converted to jquery
16:29 wizzyrea nengard: are you writing the release notes for 3.2? or is gmcharlt doing that?
16:29 sekjal idea: a centralist Koha template and XSLT library, managed by Git, that can be fetched from through the staff client
16:29 nengard wizzyrea - um - no one asked me to - i thought the RM usually did that
16:29 gmcharlt wizzyrea: I'm writing them
16:29 wizzyrea cool
16:30 chris_n sekjal: I think you'd have to get git involved somehow if the ability to merge templates were to be offered inside of the staff interface
16:31 nengard gmcharlt (or anyone) where do we stand on my comments about the privacy page in 3.2?
16:31 jcamins Yeah, git would definitely be needed.
16:31 gmcharlt nengard: we can kill it
16:31 nengard :)
16:31 k
16:31 sekjal git++
16:32 chris_n hence my earlier line: C4::Git :)
16:32 jcamins And a central repository would help, but I'm not convinced that it would eliminate the problem of dealing with local templates.
16:33 * chris_n can guarantee that it would not
16:33 chris_n and there would be merge conflicts to resolve
16:33 those might drive some librarians mad ;-)
16:33 * wizzyrea is still a proponent of the wordpress widget type organization of OPAC/Staff results
16:33 wizzyrea only cached
16:34 gmcharlt that would actually be an argument for a (very, very, very simple) domain-specific language for the bib display tempaltes
16:34 jcamins Yes, merge conflicts would be a serious problem.
16:34 wizzyrea and detail display
16:35 chris_n gmcharlt: this would allow the library to "write" their "own" templates
16:36 jcamins gmcharlt: provided it was simple (e.g., object-oriented is not simple), I can see the benefits.
16:36 chris_n but would we then have to write some sort of template editor?
16:36 jcamins Definitely.
16:36 How many people have ventured to adjust the ISBD syspref?
16:36 gmcharlt chris_n: not to put *too* much abstraction, but I think, practically speaking the basis might be starting with creating a code framework that allows hooking in multiple template/render engines
16:37 with the initial one, for backwards compatibility, being the status quo

18:08 chris_n very lazy, I know
18:10 jcamins chris_n: that's only possible if you use the standard Cutter table.
18:10 And have a computer...
18:10 Also, that probably requires you to have OCLC, doesn't it?
18:11 chris_n no, its a stand-alone app
18:11 and has a couple of mode iirc
18:12 jcamins The need for a computer is fairly absolute, though.
18:12 chris_n http://www.oclc.org/dewey/support/program/
18:13 jcamins Nifty.
18:15 Those are definitely Dewey Cutters.
18:15 (as suggested by the URL, of course)
18:21 collum When I went to Library School Gopher was the most popular app. :)
18:21 jcamins Hm.
18:22 Is there any reason to use a CONCAT with a GROUP BY clause, instead of just listing all the relevant fields separated by commas?
18:26 Huh.
18:27 7144 versus 94 records.
18:29 That was unexpected.
18:33 briceSanc How does the translation files .po work ? Do they copy the EN folder from a template to create an fr-CA folder ?
18:35 If the folder fr-CA already exist : What happens to the files in the fr-CA that are not in the EN folder ?
18:36 Are they deleted?
18:40 wizzyrea I'm confused, what now?
18:40 (the manual url's are a mess, simply bc of the way they are integrated with wp)
18:40 jcamins wizzyrea: slef fixed it.
18:40 chris_n briceSanc: that's probably a question either for the list or chris
18:40 wizzyrea (and we're working on it)
18:40 What was the problem?
18:40 jcamins It wasn't in the URL.
18:40 It was the link to the URL.
18:40 From the documentation page.
18:41 briceSanc ok
18:41 jcamins Okay, that was completely incoherent.
18:41 Let me try again.
18:41 wizzyrea lol
18:41 jcamins The problem wasn't in the manual.
18:41 * wizzyrea is listening intently
18:41 jcamins It was the link *to* the manual, from the main documentation page.
18:41 chris briceSanc: not deleted
18:41 wizzyrea oh, did it not work?
18:42 or it was just not the pretty url
18:42 chris But they will be replaced if they exist
18:42 jcamins It was not a pretty URL, and my web browser threw a fit when it redirected.
18:42 Strangely, hitting enter on the rewritten URL worked fine.
18:43 wizzyrea does anybody know, if you anonymize the circ history for a patron, does the circ also go away from the item's circ data? or does it just not have a name
18:43 ohhh
18:44 chris briceSanc: that help?
18:44 jcamins Useful fact: CONCAT doesn't like NULLs.
18:44 briceSanc chris, a little, thanks :)
18:44 jcamins Which means we have >7100 probable duplicates.
18:45 (duplicate records, that is)
18:45 briceSanc chris, it's because, we made change in the fr-CA template instead of EN :S
18:45 wizzyrea err scratch that last question
18:46 chris briceSanc: oh yeah if you do that then regen the tempaltes from the po files you change will get overwritten
18:47 briceSanc ok it's what i think...crap...
18:47 that help !
18:49 ok, thanks for your answer, i go back to my code in order to store it in the good folder

18:57 owen What does the "send questions" thing do?
18:58 nengard will it be able to handle us all

18:59 chris Not a lot I can do if it cant
18:59 jcamins You can gnash your teeth.
19:00 :)
19:00 chris :)
19:00 nengard hehe
19:00 just curious
19:01 chris I've been getting good practice at that
19:01 owen: if you sent a question I won't see it til I get to work :)
19:01 It was ok at linuxconf
19:02 So should be
19:02 Which reminds me I need to call si today

19:07 owen Wouldn't you know my attempt at fixing Bug 5281 would work in everything bug IE
19:07 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5281 trivial, P5, ---, brice.sanchez, ASSIGNED, "Check in" then "Renew" checkboxes checked in the same time
19:07 owen IE--
19:08 pianohack ie--
19:08 @karma ie
19:08 munin pianohack: Karma for "ie" has been increased 0 times and decreased 10 times for a total karma of -10.
19:08 owen Is karma case-sensitive?
19:08 @karma IE
19:08 munin owen: Karma for "IE" has been increased 0 times and decreased 10 times for a total karma of -10.
19:09 owen It could be an amazing coincidence
19:09 jcamins IE--
19:09 @karma ie
19:09 munin jcamins: Karma for "ie" has been increased 0 times and decreased 11 times for a total karma of -11.
19:09 jcamins Nope.
19:09 Not a coincidence. ;)
19:09 pianohack The only problem with that output is how positive it is
19:09 ie--
19:10 For helping to make web development an impenetrable, nondeterministic morass
19:11 jcamins ie-- # for being so bad that using Safari 1 with koha seems like a good idea
19:11 pianohack: better?
19:11 tcohen left #koha
19:11 pianohack much :)
19:11 jcamins It seems to me it should be possible to get a count of items created by month.
19:12 Maybe GROUP BY YEAR(items.dateaccessioned), MONTH(items.dateaccessioned)
19:14 pianohack That should work
19:14 jcamins 1949-06?
19:14 2001-01?
19:15 Heh.
19:15 I think we have some bad data.
19:17 pianohack at first I was all "wut?" and then I was all "oh yeah, relational databases hadn't been invented in 1949"
19:17 chris hehe
19:17 jcamins And we started creating item records in November 2009.

20:19 wizzyrea coveritlive is pretty robust
20:19 a lot of news organizations use it for local events
20:20 chris yeah, i like it has the rss feed
20:20 wizzyrea sorry, i'm reading backlog
20:20 chris cos you can archive that way, also it has xml
20:20 export
20:28 jcamins Is it possible to push to a repository without adding it?
20:28 for example: git push git@github.com:amnumsoc/koha.git
20:29 (leaving aside for a moment the fact that the URL is GitHub and not Gitorious)
20:30 indradg joined #koha
20:33 chris yes it is
20:33 jcamins Cool, thanks.
20:33 chris if that repository is set up to accept pushes from you :)
20:34 jcamins Right. That's why I say "read the documentation before trying this at home."
20:34 But I figure if that will work, it will work regardless of whether or not the person following the instruction has set up a remote with the same name I would use.
20:35 And I'm not explaining how to set up a git repository from scratch.
20:35 chris cool

21:09 chris what version of koha CGI879 ?
21:10 CGI879 3.0.2
21:10 darling you should probably return it immediately and hope the fine isn't too much
21:10 * darling is very helpful today
21:11 CGI879 no....this is not my problem...
21:11 my return date is 1990 not 2010
21:11 chris whats the system clock on the server say?
21:12 and is it return date, or the date due?
21:12 CGI879 return date
21:13 chris so when you return the item it says it was returned in 1990?
21:13 or when you issue it, it says it is due back in 1990?
21:13 CGI879 yes...automatically
21:13 chris which one?

21:52 * jcamins would just like to reiterate his extreme lack of desire to be involved in non-profit management.
21:52 jcamins (it's quarterly report time!)
21:53 chris ahh yeah, i still vote for spi or software freedom conservancy, or hlt who has time for that :)
21:53 jcamins My cat agrees.
21:54 ;)
21:54 It's not that I don't think non-profits do important things.
21:55 chris yeah :) i just see it as smarter to make use of existing structures
21:55 if its good enough for debian, good enough for me

21:59 robin The latest SFLC podcast talks a bit about projects and the conservancy

22:01 CGI879 left #koha
22:02 robin Oh no! that means there are no mitigating circumstances? :)
22:02 jcamins No, it means I have good news.

22:05 robin insufficient metal for working to.
22:06 chris heh
22:07 robin erk, and that reminds me I forgot to bring my USB soundcard in, I think that the onboard audio on this computer is doing bad things to the sound and want to compare it.
22:32 yhager_ left #koha
22:40 slef SFLC, time to make podcasts? They're not doing enough work ;-)
22:40 robin: is the driver snd-pcspkr?
22:41 robin slef: heh no. But onboard sound is traditionally pretty terrible.
22:42 Braedon joined #koha
22:43 slef I know. I use some C-Media USB device for telephone even.
22:45 robin Yeah, I have a creative something-or-other, got it so I could get 5.1 from a laptop, but after using it for music, I could no longer stand the onboard let's-play-this-through-mud-first onboard HDA thingy

22:53 slef @marc 440 a
22:53 munin slef: Title
22:54 robin that could do with providing more detail really
22:54 chris what!
22:54 how many titles does something need
22:54 @marc 245 a
22:54 munin chris: Title
22:54 robin Field 440 - Series Statement/Added Entry-Title [OBSOLETE, 2008]
22:54 chris @marc 700 a
22:54 munin chris: Personal name
22:54 chris @marc 100 a
22:54 munin chris: Personal name A surname and/or forename; letters, initials, abbreviations, phrases, or numbers used in place of a name; or a family name.
22:54 chris make up your mind!!
22:55 robin actually, the more I use it, the more the ideas behind MARC make sense. I just still don't like the implementation.
22:56 chris the basic idea is kinda flawed for today, trying to make it do FRBR is kinda hard
22:57 but as a storage and interchange format for 1970
22:57 it was fine :)
22:57 robin FRBR?
