01:01 bgkriegel rangi?
01:01 wahanui I LIKE ALMONDS! HAVE SOME NUTS!
01:01 rangi yes?
01:02 bgkriegel bug 7387 needs another sign-off or is signed?
01:02 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7387 enhancement, P1 - high, ---, chris, Needs Signoff , Add Template::Toolkit plugin to allow caching of includes
01:03 rangi i changed the patch, another sign off would be good
01:04 bgkriegel how to you test that?
01:05 rangi you have to have memcached enabled, then edit a template and make a change like in the commit message
01:06 if the page still renders fine, its working :)
01:06 bgkriegel besides, there are tabulation problems :(
01:21 Callender joined #koha
01:38 bgkriegel rangi, I did a followup for the tabulations
01:39 * jcamins throws a whole bunch of leftover ingredients into a pan with some chopped spinach, calls it a meal.
01:39 rangi thanks
01:42 !jenkins build koha_master now
01:42 jenkins_koha rangi: job koha_master build scheduled now
01:42 mtj hey eythian, about?
01:42 jenkins_koha Starting build #1054 for job Koha_master (previous build: STILL UNSTABLE -- last SUCCESS #1051 3 days 10 hr ago)
02:10 dcook jcamins: Me thinks that is more of a meal than dried apricots and macadamia nuts :p
02:12 jcamins dcook: it actually was really good.
02:12 And very filling.
02:13 And it used up the thawed chicken, half an avocado, salsa from druthb, the yogurt, and...
02:13 spinach.
02:15 Not so happy about using up the spinach.
02:16 dcook Spinach is pretty essential. Mmm, leftover meals. I'm starting to think that a real lunch might be an idea sometime soon...
02:19 jcamins And it hasn't been on sale in ages.
02:20 Probably because it's the middle of winter.
02:20 Stupid winter, killing all the leafy greens.
02:22 dcook: bet you missed this while you were in Canada.
02:22 dcook I had forgotten about that!
02:23 Vancouver is pretty nice all year round, but there was a serious lack of spinach...
02:23 jcamins I was talking about the constant food talk, but, yeah, I guess in Australia you also have summer right now. :)
02:23 dcook Don't even get me started on my childhood O_O
02:23 Yep ^_^
02:24 * dcook grew up in the rural prairies. He didn't have fresh mushrooms until he was 10+.
02:24 dcook It has been a while since I heard any food talk on here too
02:48 jenkins_koha Yippie, build fixed!
02:48 Project Koha_master build #1054: FIXED in 1 hr 6 min: http://jenkins.koha-community.[…]Koha_master/1054/
03:28 bgkriegel jcamins?
03:28 wahanui i heard jcamins was too young to be the President of the United States.  Which is a pity, because he had the votes at the 3.12 election.
03:28 jcamins Yes?
03:29 bgkriegel Bug 9412 is self-signed.
03:29 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=9412 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, hugh, Signed Off , add optional_params to C4::Service
03:29 bgkriegel Change to need sign-off?
03:29 wahanui bgkriegel: that doesn't look right
03:29 wahanui joined #koha
03:29 jcamins Yes please.
03:29 bgkriegel ok
03:32 rangi, bug 9611 is signed. I can go to sleep now.
03:32 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=9611 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, Signed Off , Changing the password hashing algorithm from MD5 to more secure Bcrypt
03:32 bgkriegel bye
04:17 mtj peeps, is there a way to use git-bz to append a 'passed QA' string for each patch?
04:18 i know 'git-bz apply -s' adds a 'signed-off by xxx' string...
04:18 i'm looking for the 'passed-qa by xxx' equiv, here…
04:21 hmm, i might just got with a 'signed-off' string - when passing qa, for now
04:28 dcook I think that's what jdruart does
04:29 jcamins: would a separate 'passed QA' string be useful to you?
04:29 mtj yeah, i think so
04:30 to make a distinction between a sign-off and a passed-qa patch
04:30 im just attempting to gbz-attach 5 'signed-off' patches to 9611, and making a nice mess
04:31 i really want gbz to handle a range of commits :)
04:31 dcook You could always add another param to community's git-bz branch :p
04:32 mtj (currently it only handles 1 at a time,  yeah?)
04:32 dcook I don't think so
04:32 I think it's supposed to handle multiples
04:33 http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Attaching_patches
04:33 I don't know if I've ever done it myself though
04:34 mtj ah, it does do a range, after all
04:38 woah, you gotta be smooth to edit/obsolete 5 commits, without a timeout
04:38 but, successful :p
04:39 sure makes the bug history confusing as hell tho :/
04:48 dcook :/
04:49 Could a person edit the commits beforehand using commit --amend, and then just obsolete during git bz attach?
04:49 mtj thats exactly what i did
04:50 its the obselting thats still tricky, that happens for every patch in the range
04:50 so, too slow on any of them, and it fails
04:51 dcook Hmm, that's not good
04:51 mtj the workaround might be to obsolete them before the upload, in bugzilla
04:52 ...then you would be able to skip/avoid that step
04:52 ok, gotta scoot
04:52 dcook Hmm, that's true
04:52 Have a good one!

08:21 * dcook thinks it's pretty cool that ByWater Solutions provides the sandbox for the SLAIS class on library automation :)
08:28 kf joined #koha
08:40 magnuse dcook: the library education in oslo provides each and every student with their own personal koha instance, thanks to the packages ;-)
08:41 guten morgen kf
08:41 dcook hey, kf ;)
08:41 magnuse: that is awesome!
08:42 magnuse: But how does it do that? Does the library education in oslo provide packaged virtual machines, server space, or URLs?
08:42 magnuse i'm not sure about the specifics
08:42 but they have a server where they run it
08:43 so they probably have something like studentnumber.koha.hioa.no or something similar
08:43 rangi the packages make it super easy to run multiple instances on one machine
08:44 * dcook is intrigued.
08:44 kf morning and hi all :)
08:44 dcook I really do need to spin up that Debian vm sometime and play
08:44 But are they just using it as users or as developers?
08:44 magnuse dcook: if you don't know the packages yet they are definitely worth a look!
08:44 bigbrovar_ joined #koha
08:45 magnuse dcook: users
08:45 dcook magnuse: that's what I hear ;)
08:45 magnuse they just get access to the opac and the intranet, no hacking
08:45 dcook I suppose it could inspire hacking on their own in any case
08:45 magnuse they use it for doing homework in cataloguing etc
08:45 yeah, at least they have the possibility
08:45 dcook Mmm, I've helped set up Koha for a college that did that as well
08:46 Yeah, I remember using Horizon and getting frustrated...
08:46 Wishing that I had more power
08:46 Or flexibility
08:47 magnuse koha = power + flexibility :-)
08:47 dcook Yeah! :D

09:09 dcook bonjour, christophe_c
09:09 dcook: Yep. It's been a few years now, but it's probably the ILS that I've used the most (other than Koha now)
09:10 christophe_c hello dcook
09:10 * dcook facepalm
09:10 dcook kf: Yep. It's been a few years now, but it's probably the ILS that I've used the most (other than Koha now)
09:10 Nothing like talking to myself...
09:10 * dcook should probably go home soon
09:10 kf dcook: I supported it for a while
09:13 dcook kf: I seem to remember you mentioning that yesterday :). How did you find it?
09:21 Eeep!
09:21 Must be running along for real this time
09:21 Have a good day at work, kf.

10:34 drojf is there a way to make cataloguing plugins do their thing automatically after i save the record? if i have to click into a field to start the plugin, the values i get (like next free callnumber) might be outdated due to another cataloguer using it. running the plugin in the saving process would at least decrease the chance of running into that problem
10:35 kf hm I think the creation date does that or used to
10:36 and I think dpavlin has done some work on stocknumber calculating like that
10:38 drojf with a plugin? or by manually the calculations into the saving process?
10:38 kf I think with a plugin
10:38 drojf cool, thanks
10:39 oh, my sentence no verb. but you understood me anyway ;)
10:39 kf who needs verbs...
10:40 drojf: the date fields autofill... but not sure if that's the database's doing or the plugins
10:40 hm maybe
10:40 if you made the field mandatory
10:40 ... like it works in cataloguing?
10:42 * kf thinks there has to be a way but no ida how it works :)
10:53 gaetan_B joined #koha
10:55 drojf if it is mandatory i geht a warning and a highlight. but yes, that would be a nice moment to check if there is a plugin available and just run it and save :)
11:02 mtj fredericd++ thanks for the sign-off :)
11:09 kf mtj: are you ever sleeping? :)
11:11 mtj i'm often up at midnight :)

11:51 bazinga joined #koha
11:51 bazinga Hello
11:51 wahanui salut, bazinga
11:52 bazinga Hi wahanui
11:52 just popped in looking for some help
11:53 drojf hi bazinga
11:53 first question?
11:53 wahanui "What are you trying to do?" or "What is the goal?"
11:53 bazinga I have intalled koha and trying to use it
11:54 drojf sounds good so far
11:58 bazinga to my dismay, i have not managed to add new patrons
11:58 kf what version of koha did you install?
11:58 have you defined patron categories in administration?
11:58 And a library? :)
12:00 bazinga yes, i have created a library and a patron category
12:01 and set the library to the one i created
12:01 kf and when you go to the patrons module now, there is no new button?
12:03 bazinga no
12:07 drojf bazinga: so you have never added a user and are logged in with the database user from the beginning? or did it work before and you are using another user account right now?
12:08 bazinga i created a new instance and i am using the database user for this instance
12:10 drojf ok that is odd then. have you set the library to use atm? what does it say in the upper right corner? (something like  NO LIBRARY SET ( Set library ) | koha_koha ( Log out ) | Help )
12:12 bazinga it is set to the library
12:12 drojf what version of koha are you using, on what operating system and how did you install it (=did you use packages?)
12:14 bazinga Could you do me favour and tell me the steps after creating a new instance, just to make sure i have not messed up something on the way
12:14 I am using ubuntu 12.04, and installed it using packages
12:14 gaetan_B joined #koha
12:16 jcamins @later tell mtj I would prefer you signed off on patches rather than marking them "Passed-QA-by." I use Passed-QA-by to indicate a member of the QA team did not apply a patch when QAing.
12:16 huginn jcamins: The operation succeeded.
12:17 bazinga I am not sure how to find out the koha version because i installed it from ubuntu repository and didn't notice
12:17 mtj hi jcamins , i'm still up
12:18 jcamins Isn't it kind of late for you?
12:18 mtj jcamins, ok - so i just add 'signed off by xxx' to my qa-ed patches, yeah?
12:18 drojf bazinga: if you choose "More"->"About Koha" you should find "Koha version"
12:19 mtj yeah, just about to hit the hay...
12:19 jcamins Right.
12:19 git commit --amend -s
12:19 mtj ok, understood
12:19 bazinga oh, thanks it is 3.08.09.000
12:20 mtj hi bazinga :)
12:22 bazinga hello mtj
12:22 drojf bazinga: if you did not use sample data, i think adding a library and a patron category  should be enough to add a patron. but that is what you said you did
12:23 bazinga drojf, i failed to mention i added sample data(libraries, and categories)
12:25 drojf bazinga: it should be even easier then. like, just log in with the database user, click on patrons and then "new patrons". i think that is what you did though
12:26 how does the patron screen look for you? maybe you can make a screenshot?
12:28 bazinga drojf, how can i send you the screenshot?
12:28 drojf you could put it on some image hoster, like http://imgur.com
12:28 jwagner joined #koha
12:29 drojf oh, that does not seem to work
12:29 kf bazinga: sorry, got called away
12:30 drojf its really slow for me, does it work for you?

12:35 drojf back
12:35 bazinga drojf: let's say i somehow managed to add a patron(since you have made the steps clear for me), then there is cataloguing. Could you please tell me the steps for that(since the official manual is not, i think, written for beginners
12:36 drojf bazinga: do you have experience with the MARC format?
12:37 bazinga No
12:37 drjf, newbie for this stuff :-)
12:37 drojf then you will experience quite a learning curve ;)
12:38 nengard joined #koha
12:38 bazinga drojf: I am ready for that since i have to master this :-)
12:38 drojf i'm afraid i am not able to walk you through MARC here, it's a strange beast of labyrinths ;) you could start with looking at the "fast add framework". it has a reduced number of fields
12:39 generally, you will have to see what kind of metadata you need to catalogue for your collection, and find out what goes in which field
12:39 i don't know any MARC introductions, maybe someone else does?
12:40 bazinga drojf: Thanks a lot for your help. I will keep digging :-)
12:46 jcamins bazinga: http://www.loc.gov/marc/umb/ <-- this may help a bit with MARC
12:47 tcohen joined #koha
12:47 drojf bazinga: you're welcome. and feel free to express anger towards MARC at any time, we all do ;)
12:47 marc?

15:47 jcamins_away oleonard: Bootstrap also has a collapsible widget which you might (or might not) find preferable to jQueryUI.
15:47 (that is, the equivalent widget in jQueryUI)
15:49 oleonard jcamins_away: I did not find that. Do you have a link?
15:49 Oh never mind jcamins_away there it is.
15:50 jcamins_away oleonard: http://twitter.github.com/boot[…]ipt.html#collapse
15:50 I'm not using jQueryUI for my other project, so I have no idea how they compare.
15:51 oleonard I believe we don't already have that widget included in our Bootstrap build, so I'm going to try to get it working in jQueryUI first
15:51 ...since we do already have it available in jQueryUI
15:51 jcamins_away Ah.
15:52 In that case, we should use the jQueryUI version.
15:52 * oleonard assumed Bootstrap had its own version and was surprised not to find it.. poor searching
15:52 jcamins_away I hadn't realized that we had a custom Bootstrap build.
15:52 oleonard Yes, for the sake of keeping the file size down
15:52 kf :)
15:53 jcamins_away I didn't even know that was an option.
15:53 oleonard http://twitter.github.com/boot[…]ap/customize.html
15:54 jcamins_away Nifty.
15:55 tcohen jcamins_away: how would u like to present the warning for bug 9659?
15:55 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=9659 minor, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Undefined authorised value category yields empty dropdown menu on SQL reports
15:55 jcamins_away I'm fine with either an alert in-page or a pop-up.
15:55 tcohen should the user be able to run the report anyway?
15:56 (the warning saying a null value will be used for the field?)
15:56 * jcamins_away doesn't have an opinion- up to you. :)
15:56 tcohen ack
16:03 oleonard jcamins_away: Bug 7969 says "pushed to master" but doesn't seem to be?
16:03 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7969 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, Pushed to Master , select all / unselect all on fines page
16:04 jcamins_away Hm.
16:04 No it doesn't.
16:05 Now it is.

16:15 Morthland Hey, I recently upgraded to 3.10,
16:15 I wanted to switch to ccsr, but it's not giving me the option.
16:17 jcamins_away The opacthemes syspref only has one option?
16:19 Morthland ah. Thanks. I was looking at the template syspref

16:51 oleonard ?
16:52 jcamins_away Yes.
16:52 kf jcamins_away: easy analytics - that's tied to the item, right? so I could catalog items for a serial subscription and link each issue/item record to articles?
16:52 jcamins_away kf: right.

16:55 kf jcamins_away: thx
16:55 will have to test that on the train tomorrow :)
16:55 oleonard catalogue/export.pl requires "export_catalog" permission, but its functionality is the same as opac-export.pl isn't it?
16:56 jcamins_away oleonard: I don't know, but that would make sense to me.
16:56 oleonard In fact opac-export.pl seems to have even more formats
17:00 jcamins_away Probably because I added some, and wasn't even aware that catalogue/export.pl existed.

17:48 oleonard Perhaps not an oversight. It doesn't seem to work.
17:50 jcamins_away Perhaps the name was changed to RIS?

19:04 nancyk Ok let's get started
19:05 #topic Overview of proposed schedule and discussion
19:05 Topic for #koha is now Overview of proposed schedule and discussion (Meeting topic: Kohacon plan Feb2013)
19:05 nancyk We have oct 16 - oct 18 as presentations
19:06 #info oct 16-18 presentations
19:06 laurence joined #koha
19:06 nancyk #info roadtrip sat oct 19
19:06 #info Oct 20-22 Hackfest
19:07 anyone have a better or different idea?
19:07 nengard Sounds good
19:07 That's usually how it goes
19:07 talljoy roadtrip++
19:08 nancyk #info i was thinking last year it was 9-4
19:08 nengard You mean time of day?
19:08 9am-4pm?
19:08 nancyk yes
19:08 nengard I forget :)
19:08 talljoy might have been 10am
19:08 nengard but that works - I'd say we wait until we get our speaking proposals in to set the times of day
19:08 we might not have enough to fill 9-4 or we might have too much
19:10 nancyk then we talk to each other , and share info
19:10 #info Brooke wants to go to UNR to see their Makerspace
19:11 maybe we can squeeze that in somehow.  It will take logistics
19:11 cait #info Katrin Fischer - sorry for being late
19:11 nancyk on to next topic
19:12 #topic how many we will be expecting
19:12 Topic for #koha is now how many we will be expecting (Meeting topic: Kohacon plan Feb2013)
19:12 cait not an easy question :)
19:12 talljoy i'll be there.
19:12 nengard I think we need to know the cost of the hotel for sure
19:13 cait I will try to
19:13 nengard All of ByWater will be there
19:13 The entire team
19:13 nancyk #info we are planning on 200 for the first three days and 50 for each hackfest day,  too many?
19:13 nengard I think people need prices and dates so that they can go to their admin for budgeting approval
19:13 cait I think a programme would help too
19:13 or knowing that you will get to speak
19:13 for some
19:14 nengard true
19:14 some places will only pay if you're speaking
19:14 cait I feel like it will probably be bigger than last kohacons... but not sure how much bigger
19:14 yes, especially for some countries outside of the US
19:14 nengard nancyk will the washoe libraries who all voted be there?
19:14 that should give you an idea
19:15 nancyk #info that's up on the site
19:15 #link http://koha-community.org/kohacon13/
19:15 John_Crockett rooms at the Atlantis are $81/night (includes $12 resort fee) + tax
19:15 cait woohoo :) that's affordable :)
19:16 nengard yeah very
19:16 magnuse cheap by norwegian standards :-)
19:16 John_Crockett @nengard, most of the Washoe County staff will be attending the Nevada Library Association Annual Conference which will be held concurrently with KohaCon13 at the Atlantis.
19:16 huginn John_Crockett: I've exhausted my database of quotes
19:16 nancyk #info actually some are $69 plus resort fee and tax
19:17 JesseM joined #koha
19:17 John_Crockett right,  $69 + $12 resort fee is $81
19:17 cait true, paid more for that room in oslo and got no pool!
19:18 nengard hehe
19:18 * talljoy gets out her abacus to confirm that math
19:18 nengard I forget what the room in Bergen was
19:18 nancyk #info we will need 125 for the three programming days and I forget for hackfest
19:18 nengard but Nevada is known for cheap accomodations
19:18 cait nancyk: can you explain?
19:18 drojf it depends on how much tax is whether that is affordable ;)
19:18 nengard @John_Crockett wasn't the idea to hold KohaCon and NLA near each other so people could attend both?
19:18 huginn nengard: I've exhausted my database of quotes
19:19 nancyk #info the hotel will provide free meeting space, internet for meetings 10MB up and down all meeting days.
19:19 nengard oh ... no @
19:19 stilly me
19:19 silly
19:20 nancyk i can get the tax rate information so we all will know the bottom line
19:20 #topic NLA  Nevada Library Association
19:20 Topic for #koha is now NLA  Nevada Library Association (Meeting topic: Kohacon plan Feb2013)
19:21 John_Crockett @nengard, absolutely.  Koha attendees are most welcome to attend NLA speakers and workshops, however we do charge a registration fee of $20 per day.
19:21 huginn John_Crockett: I'll give you the answer as soon as RDA is ready
19:21 nengard John_Crockett I meant the other way around - KohaCon is free so NLA folks can come to ours
19:21 :)
19:21 nancyk #info We are sharing some break time .space with NLA on Thursday and Friday
19:22 cait :)
19:22 John_Crockett yes, Washoe County staff and NLA attendees will be made aware they are welcome at KohaCon workshops
19:22 yes, we definitely want to maximize mingling during breaks
19:22 nancyk #info we did the sharing to get better room rates.  You can also chat with Nevada librarians during the breaks
19:23 #topic Further discussion on presentations
19:23 Topic for #koha is now Further discussion on presentations (Meeting topic: Kohacon plan Feb2013)
19:23 cait I think it would be good to get the call for papers out soon
19:23 nengard Yes - you want me to set that up
19:23 cait so people can start planning and the programme is set early
19:23 nengard like in previous years?
19:24 cait I wouldn't try to ask for special topics I think - maybe have a wiki page again for suggestions what people wnat to hear and just see what comes in
19:24 so um. like in previous years maybe?
19:24 nancyk #info so far we have newbie tips, panel discussions, for hackfest, virtual servers
19:24 nengard I find a form much easier as a program planner to sort through then a wiki page
19:25 but we can have a wiki page where people ask for topics they'd like to see
19:25 but we had an official form for proposals in previous years
19:25 And then that info went on to the wiki once approved
19:25 cait nengard: right, I meant a form to send in your abstract
19:25 but maybe a iwki page for people to note what they would like to hear
19:25 nengard yup
19:25 agreed
19:25 sounds great
19:25 cait sorry :) bit tired
19:26 nancyk #info we are going to get a call for papers ready soon, just wanted any suggestions
19:26 nengard I can get that done today and share the link with John for the conference page
19:26 nancyk you want to do it? I had volunteered for program planning so I can set it up
19:26 I think I still have previous year's templates
19:26 and can just change the date and publish :)
19:27 cait quite sure the one from last year I did for slef shoudl be still around in wordpress too
19:27 nancyk ok nicole, we should talk about getting that out asap
19:28 nengard I can do it now
19:28 be done today
19:28 nancyk great
19:28 nengard be done in a few minutes actually
19:28 nancyk ok
19:29 #topic plans for a trip somewhere fun on saturday
19:29 Topic for #koha is now plans for a trip somewhere fun on saturday (Meeting topic: Kohacon plan Feb2013)
19:29 nancyk #info What do you think about arranging for a bus to and from a couple of locations?
19:30 nengard #info call for speakers: https://docs.google.com/spread[…]2hJQ2U4S3hXX2c6MA
19:31 nancyk ok
19:31 talljoy what kind of locations nancyk
19:31 cait nengard: can you make the fields a bit longer? title is very short :)
19:32 nengard I'll try ... it's a google thing
19:32 don't think they let you change field sizes
19:33 John_Crockett call for programs link added to http://koha-community.org/kohacon/kohacon13/
19:33 nancyk #info Lake Tahoe, either a cruise or just messing around, or Virginia City, an historic  western town
19:33 cait nengard: the link to registration needs an update :)
19:33 nengard already did
19:33 refresh
19:33 nancyk nicole, you are making my head spin
19:34 talljoy she does that to us all.  whirling dervish she is
19:34 * nengard takes it as a compliment
19:34 talljoy as you should
19:34 nancyk #topic Anything else for now?
19:34 Topic for #koha is now Anything else for now? (Meeting topic: Kohacon plan Feb2013)
19:34 talljoy nancyk can you post some interesting sites to visit and ask for interest on the wiki?
19:35 or did nengard already do that?  ;-)
19:35 nengard i don't know a darn thing about NV :) so that's all Nancy :)
19:35 nancyk #info I'll get John C. to do that next week
19:35 talljoy get to it John_Crockett
19:36 John_Crockett I'm on it!
19:36 nancyk #info We also have phone apps for visiting reno
19:36 talljoy cool
19:37 drojf for firefox os?
19:37 nengard oh - phone tips - we needed tips when we went to the UK about how to get our phones to work and where to get sim cards, etc etc
19:37 John_Crockett the Reno-Tahoe Visitors Association link that's on the wiki now is most helpful http://www.visitrenotahoe.com/
19:37 nengard that would be nice for those coming from outside of the US
19:38 John_Crockett great suggestion, we'll be sure to add that
19:38 nancyk #info the phone apps are for apple and android
19:39 #info So I guess we will wait to see what comes in for programs, and I'll get the room tax info out to the list with links
19:40 nengard John_Crockett can you put a blog post on Koha-Community about the conference page and the info on it - and the call for speakers
19:40 or do you want me to?
19:40 jcamins_away If it hasn't been done or mentioned yet, someone should announce the call for speakers.
19:40 nancyk yes please
19:40 jcamins_away Oh, and nengard said that while I was waiting for my keylag to catch up.
19:40 nengard hehe
19:41 nancyk #topic next meeting March 19, same time or another time?
19:41 Topic for #koha is now next meeting March 19, same time or another time? (Meeting topic: Kohacon plan Feb2013)
19:41 nancyk are you tired of meeting at 19UTC?
19:41 John_Crockett @nengard, will do
19:41 huginn John_Crockett: I've exhausted my database of quotes
19:41 cait it's a good time for europe - early evening
19:42 probably bad for india?
19:42 nengard the time works for me
19:42 but it does seem like we're a small group today
19:42 nancyk #info ok March 19   19 UTC for our next meeting
19:43 drojf isnt europe travelling to france at that time?
19:43 nancyk #info I'll be contacting the screeners soon

19:47 tcohen bye #koha
19:49 NateC joined #koha
20:04 oleonard jcamins_away: You going to Reno?
20:08 jcamins_away oleonard: I will go to at least part of it, I think.
20:08 You?
20:08 wahanui You are welcome, I also tried the other - moving js out of translated paths
20:08 oleonard Yes
20:10 I'm missing Marseille Hackfest, so I can't miss KohaCon
20:11 Anyway, I haven't been to a KohaCon since 2008. That's ridiculous!
20:11 * jcamins_away has never been to a KohaCon!
20:12 oleonard At least you were at the last one virtually
20:12 jcamins_away True.
20:13 NateC_ joined #koha
20:13 drojf will there be live streaming?
20:13 rangi 2009 oleonard :)
20:13 drojf best question, too late for meeting :(
20:13 rangi we didnt have one in 2008 :)
20:14 oleonard You're right of course rangi
20:14 rangi drojf: its incredibly hard to set that up and have it work reliably
20:14 oleonard Just goes to show how long it's been :P
20:14 rangi drojf: you basically either need someone who doesnt mind missing the whole conference to look after it
20:14 or pay someone
20:14 jcamins_away Even recording a conference is difficult.
20:15 * rangi bailed for kohacon10
20:15 rangi but we did get everything recorded
20:15 we rented equipment to do that
20:15 jcamins_away And was it easy?
20:15 rangi with a few stationery cameras, its not so bad
20:16 jcamins_away I guess it's the post-recording part that's problematic, when you want to make the video available to people.
20:16 rangi stationary too
20:16 yep
20:16 we had antisirk for that :)
20:16 drojf yeah streaming is probably a lot of work and in the end it does not function properly
20:16 cait and she did part of it at the hackfest I tihnk?
20:16 rangi yeah and sucks all the bandwidth out of the room :)
20:16 cait also utilizing some other macs
20:17 rangi yup
20:17 * oleonard hoards the bandwidth
20:21 rangi http://blip.tv/the-curious-and-wondering-eye
20:21 theres all the kohacon10 ones
20:24 should I offer to do a history of Koha talk?
20:25 cait totally :)
20:25 and do your thing to really confuse them at the beginning :)
20:25 rangi heh
20:27 ill submit 2 proposals they can pick one
20:27 drojf there was a point when i thought i could speak it together with rangi for the edinburgh video. it was my test for the html5 video enhancement, i don't know how often i had to watch the beginning :D
20:27 rangi heh
20:28 NateC joined #koha
20:29 cait heh
20:29 wise choice tho
20:30 jcamins_away I should probably submit a proposal to talk about something.
20:30 I feel like that's expected of the former RM.
20:31 oleonard Like maybe a talk about how obnoxious developers are
20:33 drojf germany opened an "open data" portal, like minutes ago. and it crashed immediately. i'm so proud of my country :P
20:34 rangi heh
20:34 cait lol
20:35 drojf at least java throws nice errors ;)
20:37 germ engineering…
20:37 cait drojf: hm
20:38 drojf: starting to wonder if you are not really serious in your appreciation for this great country's achievements
20:39 yay oleonard is giving memore to qa!
20:39 well... we need sign-offers first of course...
20:43 jcamins_away oleonard: will all the save buttons get replaced with Bootstrap buttons too?
20:44 oleonard We could decide to style all input buttons as Bootstrap buttons if we wanted to. It's a matter of adding a class or two to each
20:45 jcamins_away Is there a strong argument for doing that (or for not doing that)?
20:46 oleonard I would say there is an argument for keeping standard submit buttons visually different from toolbar buttons, but that isn't necessarily an argument against Bootstrap all around because we could do it with color
20:52 jcamins_away NYU is testing Summon.
20:52 oleonard Whassat?
20:52 jcamins_away Ebsco's "discovery layer."
20:53 NYU just implemented a discovery layer two years ago.
20:53 It didn't work on mobile browsers.
20:53 * jcamins_away discovered that. :D
20:54 nudges oleonard enthusiastically... you see what I did there? :P
20:55 oleonard :D
20:55 drojf jcamins_away, discovery layer deficiency discoverer
20:56 jcamins_away drojf: you can simplify that: "jcamins_away, discovery layer user."
20:57 drojf hehe
20:57 oleonard So, a discover layer is what you add when the default search interface sucks? Is that right?
20:57 NateC joined #koha
20:57 rangi the only thing that a discovery layer adds (in theory) is the ability to search databases and your catalogue at the same time
20:58 but yes most ppl use it cos their opac sux
20:58 however so do almost all discovery layers
20:58 jcamins_away rangi: unfortunately, most discovery layers fail to include databases due to licensing restrictions.
20:58 rangi exactly
20:59 its pretty much a fail all round
20:59 you no longer have realtime info, lose features (in koha anyway)
20:59 cait I have been thinking about saying something like that
20:59 because they put my koha presentation in the discovery service session...
21:00 rangi id say discovery layers promise lots, deliver nothing
21:01 http://www.wcl.govt.nz/easyfind/
21:02 nengard left #koha
21:02 rangi http://palmerstonnorth.kotui.org.nz/
21:02 (aquabrowser and EDS respectively)
21:02 try linking to a search result page in either
21:02 oh wait you cant
21:02 1997 called it wants its dumbarse sessions in urls back
21:03 jcamins_away Hehe.
21:03 oleonard Wow yeah
21:03 Dyrcona rangi: You need to convince WCL to use Koha!
21:03 rangi believe me, we've tried
21:03 its TLC CarlX and aquabrowser
21:04 im not happy my rates are paying (in a tiny part) for that
21:04 try finding any of the 4 cd's they have by the the
21:04 :)
21:04 Dyrcona Anyone ever gotten aquabrowser to work with Koha?
21:05 We've had some people ask if aquabrowser works with Evergreen.
21:05 rangi ive never tried, im sure you could, just not sure of the point .. worse search results? :)
21:05 Dyrcona rangi: Next time anyone asks, I'll quote you on that!
21:05 rangi go right ahead :-)
21:06 Dyrcona ot, but I just read something about Mt. Cleese in Palmerston North today.
21:06 * rangi went to university there
21:07 jcamins_away I'm sure Aquabrowser would work fine with Koha or Evergreen.
21:07 It just loads all your records and promptly loses track of them.
21:08 cait: the Taschenbuch thing is music.
21:08 cait that makes sense with the joy stuff then
21:08 rangi i quite like how all your searches for a library 140km away, go to the US and back
21:08 oh wait
21:09 no i dont
21:09 oleonard Wow is that really how that works?
21:09 rangi yup
21:09 ehis.ebscohost.com is 12 hops away from me
21:09 somewhere in the US
21:10 you probably get faster search results
21:10 than someone in the library
21:10 how many hops for you?
21:11 maximep could someone confirm something with me on >= 3.10 ? bug 7437
21:11 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7437 normal, P5 - low, ---, fcapovilla, In Discussion , Baskets become invisible in bookseller's list when all their items are received
21:11 maximep are all orders shown on the basket page or only orders with items not received ?
21:12 Dyrcona rangi: I get 6 hops.
21:12 rangi see, thats just wrong :)
21:12 maximep: i dont know im afraid
21:12 * oleonard gets 9
21:13 oleonard I guess that helps narrow down the geography
21:13 maximep so hard to track down because that code was completly rewritten twice last year :/
21:13 rangi maximep: yeah :(
21:14 maximep having too much activity is a great problem to have :D
21:15 Dyrcona rangi: Catalyst need to create a service like aquabrowser only better, then convince NZ libraries to use it. :)
21:16 rangi like blacklight? or vufind?
21:16 druthb_mobile joined #koha
21:17 Dyrcona yeah, or even better. :)
21:20 cait maximep: on the basket page it should be all- received ones with rcvd in front
21:20 or it used to be like that... still hope it is
