00:00 eythian I need to change that in the intructions, I think it risks creating more confusion.
00:00 ASUSunDevil hmm, I don't remember doing that, I mean I created the /etc/koha/passwd file, but that didn't have any custom database stuff in it...
00:01 BobB joined #koha
00:01 eythian yeah, you don't have to do that
00:02 The instructions make it seem like you do, but you don't
00:03 ASUSunDevil could it be that my user account (username is koha) doesn't have access to the mysql database?
00:03 eythian No
00:03 that's not how mysql works
00:04 ASUSunDevil hmm, playing around at first seems to have mucked up a bunch of stuff then, probably be easier if I just started over again...
00:05 now that know he process, I migh start over
00:05 eythian the problem is the password in the koha-conf.xml doesn't match the password that was used to create the database user.
00:05 ASUSunDevil oh
00:06 eythian I've updated the page about the password stuff to emphasise that it's optional
00:06 ASUSunDevil where does tha koha-conf.xml file live?
00:06 eythian The bit about the languages at the bottom will never work too, I need to give that whole thing a tidy up.
00:07 /etc/koha/sites/instancename/koha-conf.xml
00:09 ASUSunDevil so, if that file /etc/koha/passwd exists, does it force it in some way to use it? Or will it just ignore it?
00:11 eythian I'm not sure
00:11 I haven't looked at the code for it for ages
00:12 ah no, it lets you predefine your passwords.
00:12 so it only works if your instancename is defined in the password file
00:13 but it's only needed in some situations that aren't all that common
00:20 melia left #koha
00:27 ASUSunDevil hmm, ok, I just think my playing around initiall got some stuff all mucked up, so I think I'm gonna try a fresh system and go from there.

02:17 ASUSunDevil Eythian: I reinstalled ubuntu, installed koha-common, all worked fine. Still had the problem with the errors, and figured out that is had to do with the default user that was entered into the koha-site.conf.xml file. Did some mysql magic, changed some passwords in that mysql and make the .xml file match that user account and I was able to get to the admin site at: spllib.la.asu.edu:8080. I went
02:17 through the setup, all works fine, I am able to get into the management interface, now I need to get the opac site to load on port 80, but it's not working. How can I get the public side to show now?
02:18 jcamins_away sudo a2dissite default
02:21 ASUSunDevil excellent! that did it! thank you so much! Could there be some sort of bug in the installer that mucks up the user info that goes into that .xml file? I tried the koha-create several times, but it never worked right...then I started digging into the reason why and ended up being the mysql privileges it set in the xml file didn't match up with mysql...
02:21 eythian ASUSunDevil: it should just work
02:21 jcamins_away I've never had any problems before.
02:22 eythian but I haven't tried in ubuntu for a while
02:22 jcamins_away eythian: ah, true.
02:22 I haven't used 12.04.
02:24 ASUSunDevil I am using 12.04 lts server....not sure if it was something there or not, but that was the trick. Basically I went in to mysql, updated the username and password. Then I granted privileges on the database for that user. Then changed the info in the XML file and it allowed me to log into the management interface and do the rest of the setup...just an fyi...
02:25 jcamins_away ASUSunDevil: what was the password set to in MySQL?
02:26 ASUSunDevil you know, I really have no idea, the one in the xml file was some random password of upper and lower case letters. I just reset it to something that suited me, then changed it to match in the XML file. I tried setting privileges on the database to start, thinking that might have been it. Then did the password and that made it work.
02:26 jcamins_away Yeah, it was supposed to be random.
02:27 ASUSunDevil I'm wondering if there was some reason in 12.04 that the password didn't get set right...oh, another thing was that the host was set to "%", and I changed that to 'localhost' that was the only other change I made.
02:28 You know I can't be sure it was autoinstaller either, this is my first time installing koha this way, so it could have been me, but that is how I fixed it.
02:30 I want to thank ALL of you for helping me troubleshoot it though! You guys are great!
02:32 eythian np :)
02:33 ASUSunDevil Now comes the real fun, configuration and population! ;o)

09:00 i have some qs for koha
09:01 any body her
09:02 magnuse hiya kouider
09:02 kouider hi magnuse
09:02 vfernandes joined #koha
09:02 magnuse this is usually not the busiest time on #koha, but try asking your questions and if anyone feels they can answer, you'll get an answer :-)
09:03 kouider ok thanks maguse what the time to active this chat cus iam from north africa
09:04 magnuse kouider: there are usually more people around when the americans wake up, so in 3-4 hours or something
09:04 there are some people here now too, but it's usually more quiet at this time
09:05 kouider how i can login IRC chat of koha
09:05 magnuse um, you are already loged in here, i think?
09:06 kouider oh thank you brother magnuse
09:07 i have small q how i know my zebra index is working
09:07 magnuse kouider: the simple answer: when you get the search results you expect :-)
09:09 kouider: you could also run something like "ps aux | grep zebrasrv" on the command line
09:10 kouider ok on koha Searching preferences i have chose use the Zebra search engine
09:11 magnuse that's good, koha without zebra is deprecated
09:11 kouider are its right chose
09:11 to work zebra
09:12 magnuse yup, zebra is the right choice
09:12 are you having trouble getting search results?
09:13 kouider some times
09:16 whene i do this line  update-rc.d koha-zebra-daemon defaults
09:16 i have insserv: warning: script 'koha-zebraqueue-daemon' missing LSB tags and overrides
09:24 paul_p joined #koha
09:26 slef kouider: I thought we fixed that ages ago. What version of koha are you using?
09:26 kouider i use debian 6.04 koha 3.8.1
09:27 slef oh wait
09:27 raju joined #koha
09:27 slef don't use koha-zebraqueue-daemon - I think I am right to say that.
09:27 It's deprecated/awaiting-repair
09:28 Use the crontab instead.
09:28 What told you to use koha-zebraqueue-daemon?
09:28 kouider any one
09:28 slef But maybe you can use it without harm, but yes, koha-zebraqueue-daemon is probably missing LSB details.  koha-zebra-daemon should not be.
09:28 raju Serial claim email notice not sending
09:29 kouider but i insall koha like install on ubuntu
09:29 slef raju: are you using the packages?
09:29 raju no
09:30 kouider what packages
09:30 wahanui hmmm... packages is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
09:30 slef raju: can the server send any emails?
09:30 raju some other mails are going except serial claim notice
09:31 kouider give the commends to knowing are zebra work or not
09:31 gaetan_B joined #koha
09:31 slef kouider: pgrep zebrasrv <-- that will show if the server is running
09:32 raju koha@opac://usr/share/koha/opac$ pgrep zebrasrv 1033 27449
09:33 kouider ok idont install Other packages on this wiki
09:33 slef raju: I think you should check if the serial claim notices are being generated. I can't remember exactly how to do that (probably a cron job and a table in the mysql database) and I do not have free time now.
09:33 raju yes its showing in log file
09:34 slef raju: it shows in the cron log entries? Does it show in the mail.log or exim4/mainlog?
09:34 time
09:34 kouider Is there a line I do in Terminal to find out that Zebra is working or not
09:35 slef kouider: pgrep zebrasrv <-- that will show if the server is running
09:37 raju 1033 27449
09:37 it shows 1033 27449
09:37 kouider give me 1613
09:39 what about 1613 its not work
09:40 raju its not showing 1613
09:41 kouider oh allah what i do to work zebra
09:43 help me
09:45 slef no
09:45 sorry
09:45 I mean
09:45 If you get any number, it means zebra is running
09:46 I don't mean I won't help you. I just have to work on other things too, to earn money to live.
09:46 So I am not fast here.
09:46 pgrep shows you the process number of that program
09:47 if you now type "ps 1613" kouider, you should see a line that says zebrasrv and some other things
09:47 or one that starts "daemon ..."
09:47 I would expect two numbers, like raju has.
09:49 If there is only one that starts daemon, it probably means zebrasrv is failing. Check log files to find the error.
09:50 raju ps 1613 : PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
09:51 kouider Thanks I hope a God to help you in all your business
09:54 slef raju: you would need to "ps 1033 27449" from what you said
09:55 more reliably, you can "ps $(pgrep zebrasrv)" and it will figure out the numbers itself
09:56 kouider yes its same 1613
09:56 1613 ?        S      0:00 /usr/bin/zebrasrv -v none,fatal,warn -f /etc/koha/koh
09:56 raju Any solution: enable serial claim mail
09:58 kouider i insall all modules cpan
10:06 raju in Koha 3.6 claim mail is not sent for serial claim
10:10 kouider are there  koha dvd live debian

14:15 Wait.
14:15 I forgot to create the tag.

14:19 jcamins Does anyone see the tag?

14:19 jcamins I don't.
14:19 chris_n: help?
14:19 wahanui it has been said that help is at http://koha-community.org/support/ if no-one here can help.
14:19 chris_n jcamins: what did you do?
14:20 jcamins It's in my repository, but pushing the branch to to git.k-c.org doesn't create it.
14:20 chris_n first question?
14:20 wahanui "What are you trying to do?"  "What is the goal?" or "What problem are you experiencing?"
14:20 chris_n hehe
14:20 lemme check perms
14:20 jcamins git tag -s v3.06.05 && git push kc-rmaint 3.6.x
14:20 chris_n ahh
14:21 git push --tag origin
14:21 iirc
14:21 jcamins Yup, thanks.
14:21 chris_n++
14:21 chris_n the tag goes to the origin rather than to the branch
14:23 its a repo thing rather than a branch thing I think
14:23 jcamins Okay, that makes sense I guess.

15:14 sekjal hi, cait_train
15:16 * jcamins tests release-tool.pl
15:16 * libsysguy tries to burn yui in his proof of concept
15:17 jcamins If it manages to get through the entire release test successfully, I'll add deploying to the tool's repertoire. :)
15:17 slef oleonard: Yes. Damn, yes.
15:18 oleonard EU web users are going to get sick of those notices.
15:18 slef oleonard: and my understanding is that the cart is exempt because it is strictly necessary when it is set... but do we have carts if the user is not logged in?
15:19 oleonard slef: Yes, the cart works independently of login
15:19 slef: It's not connected to the user's identity. It just stores biblionumbers in the cookie.
15:19 slef in the session or another cookie?
15:19 I'll go test it
15:19 oleonard Another cookie.
15:19 cait_train :)
15:20 slef EU web users are sick of website operators trying to spy on them. That's why we have the law. But the industry has been in denial since 2000 or 2002 or some such, and not fixed the infringements, so now the UK has given it teeth.
15:21 * oleonard agrees on the spying issue for sure
15:21 slef I think I'll need to exempt the other cookie from the deletion.
15:21 Any others I may have missed?
15:22 And why doesn't the cart use the session JOOI?
15:22 oleonard JOOI?

15:25 oleonard slef I'm not sure how that would work, the cart using the session.
15:27 gaetan_B joined #koha
15:33 slef oleonard: not saying it would. Just not sure why it wouldn't :)
15:34 chris_n is 254$b really not part of the "title proper"?
15:35 oleonard the session cookie contains a string that matches an entry in the database. The cart cookie is just a long string of biblionumbers. If you wanted to have the cart "use the session cookie" I think you'd be talking about storing those biblionumbers in the database instead?
15:35 chris_n MARC::File::XML includes $a,n,p in that
15:35 jcamins chris_n: that is correct.
15:35 oleonard slef: I also see a KohaOpacLanguage cookie in my browser
15:39 jcamins C is for cookie, that's good enough for me!
15:40 slef oleonard: yes, storing those numbers in the session database (usually database)
15:41 oleonard: hmmm. Is that only set if you switch language?

15:48 oleonard sekjal: And that's the small version!
15:50 slef oleonard: cool. So it needs a warning by the language selector, or a popup.
15:50 damn I've got to try to figure out parsing $cookie just before it is sent to the browser :(
15:50 * slef looks at his next appointment
15:50 jcamins Bother. My Perl release-tool script blows up just before building the packages, but if I run the command manually, it works fine.

16:24 mbalmer evening.
16:24 wahanui i heard evening was better for me - but not too late
16:24 mbalmer interesting discussion about naming of primary keys on the ml
16:24 wizzyrea ASUSunDevil: not that I'm aware of
16:25 jcamins mbalmer: consistency is always a good thing. It will make using DBI::Class that much easier.
16:26 mbalmer yes. and a little bit no ;)
16:26 but paul is right to bring the subject up, we should settle with one form.
16:26 wizzyrea what was that thing we were talking about yesterday, something to do with lists...
16:26 logs?
16:26 wahanui well, logs is http://irc.koha-community.org/irclog/koha/
16:27 wizzyrea ah right, user entered titles that link to searches
16:27 * wizzyrea meant to file a bug, didn't. Will now.
16:31 * chris_n is of mbalmer's opinion that we really ought to use table.column
16:31 chris_n but would settle for #4
16:31 jcamins chris_n: don't we do that anyway?
16:32 sekjal chris_n: agreed, that's how we should reference the columns, for minimal ambiguity
16:32 chris_n jcamins: what code are you looking at?
16:32 :-)
16:32 mbalmer I wouldn't object #4 either.  but being explicit is never a mistake, imo.
16:32 jcamins chris_n: just my own.
16:32 chris_n try being vague with your directory path or xml path or...
16:32 sekjal but I think the purpose of this discussion is more for naming conventions to ease ongoing maintenance, and lower the learning curve to understanding Koha's data structure
16:33 chris_n I do think that foo_id is a bit more informative than just 'id'
16:33 * jcamins yawns. How many times do I have to run the unit tests?
16:33 chris_n but if you have table.id that probably covers most of what foo_id does as well
16:33 mbalmer I do think that <table>.<column> leaves almost no questions about what is being referred to.
16:34 * chris_n hands jcamins a pillow
16:34 mbalmer <table>_<column> is just a convention, whereas <table>.<column> is a syntactically correct, unambigous reference.
16:34 jcamins Okay, I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out how one creates a database using DBI.
16:34 chris_n unit tests should play some relaxing music while they ar running
16:35 mbalmer but since <food> is on the <table>, I have to bail out for dinner ;)
16:35 chris_n lol

17:43 wizzyrea I think the youtube version is pretty high res
17:44 it goes up to 720p
17:47 slef trying to print it... I've been told the youtube is marked as CC-BY-NC-SA... if it is, then I can't use it (we're commercial) but isn't it a derived work of the Koha code so should be GPLv2?
17:49 wizzyrea hm wonder why NC
17:49 anyway.
17:49 I bet you could get *permission* to use it though
17:49 just ask rangi

18:15 night.
18:15 jcamins++
18:15 jcamins datadoctor: now I just have to make it work...
18:15 datadoctor bon nuit!
18:16 What is the main advantage of using the tool - saving time on manual commands?
18:16 jcamins datadoctor: basically.
18:16 datadoctor: every time I make a change on 3.6.x, I run forty-five minutes worth of tasks.
18:17 With the script, it can be automated.
18:17 I'm also working on getting it to manage packages, as well.
18:19 datadoctor: I already have a bash script that does this stuff, but it was getting unwieldy.
18:19 libsysguy sorry to butt in but I have a quick question, i deleted a folder…what is the git command to get it back
18:19 i thought it was reset
18:19 but i was wrong-ish
18:20 jcamins git checkout  folder
18:20 libsysguy doh
18:20 thanks jcamins
18:22 datadoctor Our main issue with installation was PERL updates.
18:22 They had dependencies that required us to rerun the installation scripts over and over again.
18:22 liw jcamins, I'm here now
18:24 datadoctor Because some modules depended on other modules that installed later in the script.\
18:24 jcamins liw: it turned out the problem was that Perl doesn't auto-chomp `shell commands`.
18:25 I was using DEBEMAIL correctly.
18:25 :)
18:25 datadoctor: that's why I use the packages.
18:25 * liw knows no perl :)
18:25 jcamins liw: that's okay, I wanted to ask you what went into DEBEMAIL to make dch not throw a fit and die.
18:25 "Just an e-mail address" is the answer. ;)
18:26 liw jcamins, :)
18:26 * liw is not of much help while he's touring the Italian countryside looking at medieval city centres and earthquake damage
18:27 jcamins Yeah, but you're having a lot more fun, I bet!
18:27 liw possibly :)
18:33 datadoctor jacamins I like the idea of installing from the packages. I am used to doing it from git. If there are many git branches active is it hard to generate the packages?
18:34 jcamins datadoctor: what do you mean? You can only have one branch checked out at a time.
18:35 datadoctor jcamins: Well, I guess that makes sense - you would not be merging branches, just generating from what you have checked out.
18:36 jcamins datadoctor: you merge whichever branches you want to have in your package, then you create the package.
18:38 datadoctor jcamins: I used CPAN to pull my PERL updates on the last install. Does a package install take care of the PERL?
18:38 jcamins Yes.
18:38 datadoctor jcamins: Thanks! I'm still learning about the development process...
18:40 * jcamins discovers that chdir is not scope-sensitive in any way.
18:41 chris_n jcamins: did you write the perdoc first? ;-)
18:42 jcamins chris_n: yes.
18:42 chris_n: well, I did most of the coding first.
18:42 But I wrote the POD while waiting for the task to run.
18:42 datadoctor ;)
18:43 jcamins Since it takes *ages*, that gave me plenty of time for POD writing.
18:52 * chris_n takes the nestea plunge
18:52 chris_n and upgrades his production box from post 3.2.x master to 3.8.x
18:52 jcamins Whoah!
18:52 chris_n all the librarians are on vacation... ehehehe
18:53 yup, thanks to many rehearsals, the db upgraded with only two non-important errors
18:53 jcamins Yay!
18:54 chris_n I'll do my best to keep up this time :-)
19:43 wizzyrea omgosh chris_n, congratulations
19:44 I know that's been a huge project for ya
19:44 * chris_n passes out cookies
19:44 wizzyrea must feel awesome to have it done
19:44 chris_n hmmm... is that legal in the UK?
19:44 wizzyrea biscuits
19:44 wahanui biscuits are almost done.
19:45 wizzyrea or something
19:45 * wizzyrea likes the NZ "slice"
19:45 chris_n ok, if you're in the UK: you'll have to opt-in before touching the cookies ;-)
19:45 wizzyrea oh boy.
19:45 * chris_n looks toward slef
19:47 * wizzyrea casually wonders why a gmail tab takes 64MB of memory
19:48 jcamins wizzyrea: do you *really* want to ask yourself that question?
19:48 * wizzyrea sobs

19:50 wizzyrea that was interesting
19:50 jcamins Heh.
19:50 Woohoo!
19:51 The package building now appears to work!
19:51 chris_n woot!
19:52 while the librarians are away it will play
19:53 its the wrath of the catalogers I worry about
19:53 jcamins Heh.
19:53 * jcamins is a cataloger. FEAR ME!
19:57 * chris_n whips out the dark-chocolate fudge and places it before jcamins
19:57 jcamins :)
19:57 * jcamins is mollified.
20:02 datadoctor Glad to hear you got your packages!
20:03 jcamins datadoctor: well, we haven't quite reached deploying them to an apt repo yet, but it's a start.
20:05 datadoctor Must wait to unwrap the packages...:(
20:06 Oh well, we are upgrading our server hardware before we can even begin to think about upgrading to 3.8.x
20:06 That will happen later this Summer.
20:07 ...and that's when all the custom code requests start pouring in...
20:07 This time around I hope to feed some of our improvements back to the community.
20:07 jcamins datadoctor: yeah, that's what I was just about to say.
20:08 datadoctor !!!
20:08 jcamins (that you should try to get your changes into Koha proper)
20:09 datadoctor I'm still trying to wrap my mind around installing from packages, but committing changes to a git branch.
20:11 libsysguy you can do that?
20:11 datadoctor Not me!
20:11 libsysguy heh i thought I was about to have my mind blown
20:11 datadoctor We currently work from a 3.5 branch that we checked out last year.
20:11 libsysguy whoa…well i guess it could be worse
20:12 i thought i saw earlier where chris_n upgraded from a 3.2 branch
20:12 datadoctor We will be going from 3.5 to 3.8.
20:12 libsysguy but you need new hardware
20:12 chris_n libsysguy: indeed I did :-)
20:12 libsysguy or you're just getting some
20:12 chris_n++
20:12 jcamins datadoctor: packages are easy.
20:13 datadoctor We've got a new server coming our way.
20:13 * libsysguy loves new hardware
20:13 jcamins Basically once you have a git branch that looks exactly like what you want, you run debian/build-git-snapshot, and wait.
20:13 datadoctor Ok...
20:14 So that would generate the git branch from my installation?
20:14 I'm confused...
20:14 chris_n jcamins: we should add that as a clickable link to gitweb
20:14 like the "snapshot" link
20:14 that would be very nice
20:14 libsysguy ^^
20:14 jcamins chris_n: that would be *so cool*.
20:14 libsysguy like a master install button
20:14 chris_n instant deb++
20:15 jcamins Sadly building the packages does take a bit.
20:15 datadoctor [consults ProGit manual] ...thinking...
20:15 libsysguy what if there is an error
20:15 does jenkins just go back to the latest success
20:16 datadoctor http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]es_-_The_Easy_Way
20:16 jcamins libsysguy: if there's an error then someone failed to test their branch prior to pushing.
20:16 libsysguy heh
20:16 jcamins datadoctor: see, very easy.
20:17 datadoctor Luckily I have a three-day weekend to read up on this!

20:19 zioha joined #koha
20:19 jcamins I've been carefully doing chdir('.') prior to trying to delete the temporary directory.
20:20 And my otherwise warning-free script has been complaining.
20:20 datadoctor Where are your relative paths leading you?
20:20 jcamins datadoctor: I maintain that when I ask for the current directory, "." is not helpful.
20:21 datadoctor Is it a bash configuration issue? Or just a fact of Linux?
20:22 jcamins datadoctor: it's Perl being weird.
20:22 datadoctor I see.
20:22 jcamins Since '.' means "the current directory," it didn't occur to me that Perl would consider that a useful response to my calling curdir() to get the current directory.
20:23 datadoctor :)

20:43 * jcamins reads about GND.
21:04 cait joined #koha
21:05 jcamins o/
21:05 cait gnd?
21:05 jcamins Yes.
21:05 In particular, the 079 field.
21:05 I can't figure out what exactly is in it. Is it like authority type?
21:06 cait hm
21:06 Iam sure I can find out
21:06 but might take a moment :)
21:06 have you a link or something?
21:06 jcamins http://www.dnb.de/DE/Standardi[…]ND/gnd_node.html;
21:07 It's hard because I can't read German.
21:08 chris_n and I were discussing how we really need some sort of indication in the MARC record what type of authority we're dealing with.
21:09 I thought that GND might have something like that.
21:09 cait ah
21:09 quite sure it's in there
21:09 in the marc bibliographic or in the marc authority record?
21:09 jcamins Authority.
21:10 We were talking about maybe using LDR/18, since that's not in use.
21:10 cait hm
21:10 isn't the used 1xx field an indicator?
21:10 I think that's how the import scripts work?
21:10 jcamins Yes, but it's not a very good indicator. :(
21:11 Among other issues, name/title authorities can't be identified.
21:12 datadoctor I'm having an end-of-day issue.
21:12 jcamins Wondering why we're still working?
21:12 Good question!
21:12 :)
21:12 datadoctor :) Must go home now. See y'all next week.
21:13 Best of luck with all your projects - and picnics!
21:14 cait jcamins: I think you were right
21:14 079 $b is used
21:14 jcamins :)
21:14 I thought that might be the case.
21:15 I figured if GND already has a field, we might as well use it.
21:16 And I figured GND would already have a field because the DNB is sensible like that.
21:16 :)
21:17 cait :)
21:18 rangi slef: andrew from my work made that, and i think it might be nc because of the song, however i will check on monday

21:25 rangi cool
21:25 * jcamins is trying to automate deploying his packages to his apt repo.
21:25 rangi must be permissions
21:26 ill fix that
21:26 hmm i need to come up with a new whakatauki (proverb) for the release notes too
21:26 jcamins Okay, it doesn't like 3.6-testing.
21:28 rangi ok swimming lessons
21:28 bbl
21:28 jcamins Why doesn't it like 3.6-testing? It was fine with squeeze-dev and 3.6.x.
21:30 Oh. It was stale packages.

23:25 eythian hi
23:26 jcamins Shouldn't you be off doing something fun?
23:26 I think I got my apt repo working finally. :)
23:27 eythian jcamins: So far I've biked across town, done 2 hours of seishinkan training, biked half way back, now I'm going to work on my presentation for a bit once I've cooled down :)
23:27 awesome
23:27 jcamins @later tell chris_n My new release-tool.pl script has been pushed to github.
23:27 huginn` jcamins: The operation succeeded.
23:27 jcamins It only took an entire day!
23:28 eythian heh
23:34 I fear my arms are going to be killing me later today, 2 solid hours of sword work when I haven't really done it in a few weeks is pretty hard on them.
23:35 jcamins Heh.
