00:12 dcook Downside of touchscreens...
00:13 Trying to input passwords that you only remember through muscle memory is a real pain...
00:18 wizzyrea oy.
00:19 the NSA isn't on furlough.
00:19 NSA is still operational.
00:19 They are considered "essential"
00:19 dcook The military is also still being paid

02:05 * dcook pokes Xchat
02:05 dcook Be good.
02:08 tcohen joined #koha
02:17 banana left #koha
02:26 * eythian now wonders who Aaron O. is.
02:27 rangi hmm?
02:28 eythian <banana> Aaron O. - online?
02:28 rangi ahh :)
02:28 * wizzyrea wonders who banana is
02:29 jcamins rambutan
02:29 wizzyrea ah
02:32 rangi hmm tweetbot is broken again
02:33 eythian nah, it's a glitch in the matrix
02:41 tcohen how can I administer some eye drops to my cat Florencio?
02:42 jcamins tcohen: sedative?
02:42 Chain mail?
02:42 dcook Two person team?
02:42 One person wrap him in a towel and hold him close to their body
02:42 Person two hold eye dropper and eyelids
02:43 wizzyrea put the cat in a pillowcase
02:43 head out
02:43 or
02:43 use the binder clip trick
02:43 dcook Binder clip trick? That sounds horrible
02:43 jcamins Oh, yeah, the binder clip trick is a good one.
02:43 wizzyrea http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3t1XPYVbsSo
02:45 tcohen i guess the two person team should work
02:45 dcook That is horrifying...yet intriguing...
02:45 wizzyrea lol.
02:46 tcohen florencio doesn't surrender to the clip trick
02:46 (not always)
02:46 wizzyrea mom cats carry their babies like that, kitties know to go limp when pinched in that way
02:46 florencio is a good name for a cat
02:47 dcook Admittedly, I haven't had to use eye droppers, but we usually wrap Starbuck in a towel to incapacitate his limbs, then that person holding the towel holds him close and the other person gives him meds
02:47 wizzyrea I think, if it worked well on your cat, the amount of time that the clip is on probably is less irritating for the cat than the procedure being administered.
02:47 dcook Hmm, good point, wizzyrea
02:47 Starbuck is a little stress ball...
02:48 wizzyrea I had a cat with poor rear end hygiene, to wash her rear we had to put the front end in a pillowcase
02:48 so she couldn't see the water.
02:48 and that seemed to go fine.
02:48 since you need front end access though, that wouldn't work for you
02:49 tcohen i've just read that some people suggest to do it from behind, gently moving his head up
02:51 dcook Mmm
02:51 We used something similar when giving pills
02:52 Plus the towel for good measure :p
02:52 Did the vet give you any tips?
02:53 tcohen they told us to use a towel
02:53 rangi someone tweet something else
02:53 im bored of that highlighting all the time
02:58 wizzyrea lol.
03:02 there you go.
03:02 dcook !
03:02 That's awesome!
03:02 wizzyrea++
03:02 * dcook would be keen to hear more about that
03:03 wizzyrea bug 10944 >.> needs signoff even!
03:03 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=10944 minor, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, Needs Signoff , Mixed content warnings in opac results and detail with Amazon images on https
03:03 wizzyrea and that doesn't fix it in the user pages, I'm getting ready to do that work now
03:04 dcook Hmm...
03:05 How long ago did we start using "using_https"?
03:05 wizzyrea i think it is not in 3.8
03:05 3.10 probably
03:05 dcook Tabarnac..
03:06 I imagine that one might be sandboxable though..
03:06 wizzyrea if the sandboxen use https
03:06 dcook Right, that would make a difference
03:06 Durr
03:07 Ah, but you give good instructions
03:09 On that note, I should grab lunch
03:36 wizzyrea ping mtj
03:37 question for anyone really
03:38 is there a preference on ssl images, that we use using_https or simply replace standard content with https content where we can
03:38 afaik there is no harm in calling an https image in a page that isn't secured
03:38 and you'll avoid the mixed content warnings (and get the lock) if you *are* using ssl...
03:39 the fixes are easier if we don't have to check for using_https - I don't mind either way
03:49 dcook That's probably an eythian question
03:49 wizzyrea well I asked him :)
03:49 I wanted to know if there were generally opinions about this
03:50 dcook As far as I know, there's no reason not to use the images via SSL
03:50 I think the speed might be diminished a little bit but probably not by much
03:51 wizzyrea speed is the only thing I could think of
03:52 ff23 greatly increases the amount of checking firefox does on such things
03:52 re: http images/things in https pages.
03:52 (of course people who are up to date are running 24 now)
03:53 i am honestly surprised that we don't see more complaints
03:53 eythian I'm not sure how many people routinely deploy https
03:54 wizzyrea maybe a lot of people just set the exceptions and/or live with a broken web
03:54 IE trains people to do that.
03:55 dcook Or don't use https
03:55 IE...*shudders*
03:55 Hmm, gnome3 doesn't look right on the laptop...
03:58 Nowhere near as fancy as my desktop at home..
03:59 wizzyrea video drivers?
03:59 * dcook thinks so
03:59 dcook It says it's the "fallback" experience
03:59 Which is probably why it looks more like gnome2
04:00 I had the same thing happen on the VM I have on this desktop at work
04:04 Oh well. Maybe I'll play around when I'm bored at the airport.
04:04 Hmm the Google snippet for git.koha-community.org says git.koha.org
04:05 As the title
04:10 eythian how odd
04:11 rangi mtj: your bot is broked
04:12 dcook Only 24 minutes to fly from Vancouver to Victoria...
04:12 * dcook goes and actually has lunch this time
04:12 jcamins Didn't dcook say he was going to have lunch several hours ago, back when it was still a reasonable hour for me to go to bed?
04:13 eythian yeah
04:27 @later tell mtj your twitterbot is bust
04:27 huginn eythian: The operation succeeded.
04:34 Oak joined #koha
04:34 * Oak waves
04:54 laurence joined #koha
04:59 * dcook hopes that jcamins is sleeping by now
05:00 dcook tweetbot_, I think you're a bit of a broken record, eh?
05:14 Oak joined #koha
05:16 cait joined #koha
06:12 * dcook wonders if someone should just kick that bot...
06:15 * magnuse waves
06:16 dcook hey ya magnuse :)
06:16 * dcook didn't realize it was already that time of day ;)
06:17 dcook I ended up downloading Virtualbox and installing Wheezy on the laptop
06:17 Just need to download git bz, gitify, install Koha, and I'll be all ready :D
06:22 magnuse hiya dcook
06:22 hehe
06:23 dcook I love that moment when you want to follow someone on Twitter and then you realize that you've actually been following them for ages :p
06:24 magnuse hehe, sounds familiar
06:27 * magnuse needs a new main pc
06:28 dcook Needs or wants? :p
06:29 magnuse needs! definitely
06:29 * dcook wants a fancy new monitor for his home pc...although he rarely uses it...
06:29 dcook Maybe another laptop to increase the number of computers in the house
06:29 magnuse i'm wasting too much time waiting for this one to figure things out
06:30 dcook Time for a new computer! :D
06:30 On a related note, are you going to Kohacon, magnuse?
06:30 I noticed you're a sponsor but I couldn't remember if you were coming
06:30 magnuse no, i get to stay at home
06:30 but i have sposnsored a little, yes
06:31 so y'all gotta have fun on my behalf :-)
06:31 * dcook thinks Norway should host Kohacon15 *nod* *nod*
06:31 dcook I'll...do something on your behalf
06:31 I was going to say have a beer, but you don't like beer, right?
06:32 magnuse ooh, you know me well :-)
06:32 maybe not 15, but 18 perhaps?
06:32 dcook I might have papers scattered on my desk but my brain is a fortress!
06:33 * dcook wonders what version of Koha will exist in 2018
06:33 dcook 5 years...it might have wings by then
06:33 * dcook wishes someone would've recorded people's predictions for the year 2000
06:33 magnuse hehe
06:35 it's weird how i'm always thinking "how could people ever use koha without this new feature?"
06:36 wow http://www.mymodernmet.com/pro[…]rees-slope-point/
06:36 nz++
06:36 dcook hehe
06:36 Yeah, sometimes I wish that all of our libraries were up on 3.12
06:39 reiveune joined #koha
06:39 reiveune hello
06:45 dcook salut reiveune
06:45 magnuse: That's wild!
06:46 reiveune salut dcook kathryn magnuse :)
06:47 magnuse bonjour reiveune
06:47 rangi https://www.blippex.org/
06:47 interesting
06:47 wahanui i guess interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad
06:47 magnuse hm, for some reason my fingers expect xchat to do tab-complete on the word bonjour...
06:47 dcook rangi: Is that the search engine that is getting a lot of press?
06:48 * dcook seems to remember reading something this morning..
06:49 magnuse um interesting results for "koha"
06:50 rangi dcook: http://catalyst.net.nz/node/23581
06:51 magnuse: it learns from what people with the plugin visits
06:51 dcook I was wondering how it was going to track dwell time
06:51 rangi: What am I looking for on this page?
06:53 rangi if you did the postgres course
06:53 you could follow it with
06:53 https://kiwicon.org/
06:55 dcook Sounds cool, but I'll still be in Vancouver
06:55 Thanks for the links and the thought though :)
06:56 11 Nov will be flight hangover rather than Kiwicon hangover ;)
06:56 rangi no worries, ill send you the link when we do the january/feb ones
06:56 dcook Awesome. That would be great :)
06:57 The wife and I have been talking about taking a trip over to Wellington
06:57 Well, maybe NZ in general, but I have a special interest in Wellington, of course
06:58 alex_a joined #koha
06:59 * magnuse recommends nz of all his heart
07:01 dcook It's so close!
07:01 gaetan_B joined #koha
07:01 magnuse not for me, sadly
07:01 gaetan_B hello
07:01 magnuse hiya gaetan_B
07:02 dcook bonjour alex_a et gaetan_B
07:02 You're much closer to Europe though, magnuse :p
07:03 magnuse yeah, that is true. marseille, for example ;-)
07:04 @wunder boo
07:04 huginn magnuse: The current temperature in Bodo, Norway is 12.0°C (8:50 AM CEST on October 02, 2013). Conditions: Mostly Cloudy. Humidity: 77%. Dew Point: 8.0°C. Pressure: 30.09 in 1019 hPa (Steady).
07:04 magnuse @wunder marseille

07:05 lds joined #koha
07:05 dcook When does it usually snow in Bodo?
07:06 samueld joined #koha
07:07 magnuse it can be quite unpredictable
07:07 last winter the snow came kind of early, maybe in november?
07:07 but the last winters before that there was almost no snow before xmas
07:08 so january, february, march are the most snowy months, i guess
07:09 dcook Really?
07:09 wahanui Really is off now
07:09 dcook Intriguing...
07:09 That doesn't sound too bad at all
07:09 * dcook thinks it's snowy in Canada 13 months of the year
07:10 magnuse hehe
07:10 dcook @wunder reno, nevada
07:10 huginn dcook: The current temperature in MidTown, Reno, Nevada is 12.4°C (12:00 AM PDT on October 02, 2013). Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 40%. Dew Point: -1.0°C. Pressure: 29.94 in 1014 hPa (Steady).
07:10 magnuse we can have 6 months of snow, though
07:10 dcook Mmm, maybe it is more similar than I think
07:11 magnuse since we are on the coast, it's normal for the temperature to vary wildly from -10C to +10C through the winter
07:14 everythin you ever wanted to know about the weather statistics for Bodø, but was afraid to ask: http://www.yr.no/place/Norway/[…]8/statistics.html
07:16 dcook hehe
07:19 * dcook wishes that Canadians understood metric better
07:19 dcook All I know is that those temperatures look pretty nice
07:19 magnuse yeah, not too bad
07:19 thanks to the gulf stream
07:23 samueld hi everybody
07:28 magnuse hiya samueld
07:35 kf joined #koha
07:37 kf good morning #koha
07:49 magnuse kia ora kf
07:54 tweetbot_ was kicked by rangi: come back when you are fixed
07:54 kf hi magnuse :)
08:01 dcook Yay rangi!
08:06 kf hi dcook
08:09 dcook hey kf :)
08:09 Hmm, apparently I have 84 people from grad school on my FB...
08:10 * dcook swears he didn't talk to that many different people during that time
08:10 kf so why did you befriend them?
08:12 magnuse it's fun?
08:13 dcook Seemed like the thing to do at the time?
08:13 Everyone else was doing it? :p
08:13 kf aha
08:13 I think I don't have to say more ;)
08:21 rangi hmm i cant think of anything worse
08:21 how about instead of becoming the marc experts, we use the fact LOC is down, to move on
08:22 (re list email)
08:23 kf hmwhich one?
08:24 rangi the main list
08:24 wahanui i heard the main list was at http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
08:25 kf aah
08:25 well first you pretend to be the experts an dmean well, and then you kill it
08:25 rangi heh
08:25 kf i thought it worked like that?
08:27 dcook Yeah, there really isn't much to be gained by becoming marc experts
08:27 Or rather...
08:27 Nothing to be gained by becoming a marc authority
08:28 Same thing, different silo
08:28 As an aside, "promise them beer, and they will come".
08:29 rangi heh
08:29 * dcook tries to imagine a metadata schema that uses beer as an acronym
08:49 magnuse anyone attending the hackfest will be able to hear a bit about how to leave marc behind and emrace current technology
08:52 Bibliographic Encoding and Encryption for Re-use
08:55 dcook Nice, magnuse!
08:55 I like it ;)
08:55 kf :)
09:14 paul_p joined #koha
09:24 rangi magnuse: so we gpg encrypt each record ? :)
09:24 mtj oops, sorry about the tweetbot going crazy before everyone
09:25 rangi magnuse: actually if we could come up with another e ... gpg signing would be pretty sweet
09:25 magnuse hehe
09:26 Exchange?
09:27 rangi hmm
09:28 how about
09:29 Borrowers Encoded and Encrypt Records
09:29 Encrypted even
09:29 magnuse ooh, now we're talking
09:29 kf i'd like that
09:29 rangi where we store borrowers data encrypted with their gpg key so only they can see it
09:29 kf guess our data privacy person woudl too
09:29 hm ah right
09:30 not sure how that would work :)
09:33 rangi well it could just be as simple as we never send it to them without encrypting it first
09:33 since drojf has already done that
09:33 :)
09:34 kf right, sounds good... but ithink it still needs a sign off
09:34 rangi yep
09:35 i was plannign to qa it, so would like someone else to sign off
09:35 ive signed off too many that i now cant qa
09:35 magnuse rangi++
09:36 kf rangi: makes sense, i know the problem
09:36 i think i woud like to discuss an idea for module maintainers again
09:36 thinking about sip and ldap especially
09:37 but for 3.16
09:37 or 4
09:38 hm maybe unimarc
09:39 rangi yeah
09:40 right sleep time
09:40 kf night rangi
09:40 liw sleep well, rangi
09:43 dcook night rangi
09:43 * dcook should head off as well..
09:44 magnuse maybe normarc?
09:48 Oak @later tell Brooke https://soundcloud.com/cityand[…]our-the-hurry-and
09:48 huginn Oak: The operation succeeded.

09:49 dcook City and Colour \o/
09:49 Dallas Green has the voice of an angel...
09:49 hehe
09:49 Ok, I should go too
09:49 Night all
09:49 wahanui goodnight dcook. You'll be back.
09:56 paxed Arggh.
09:56 looks like accidentally uploaded the fr-FR translation file to pootle instead of fi-FI ...
10:00 now how do i cancel all those suggested translations? i dodn't see any way other than manually going through all of them. which is just impossible.
10:03 kf let me take a look
10:04 hm
10:04 it looks like there are only 29 suggestions for 3.12?
10:05 paxed: not sure i see the problem, maybe write an email to the koha-translate mailing list
10:07 paxed i guess there wasn't more than that then, and i went through those and removed the french ones.
10:08 also: this is my first time actually using pootle. and i'm not liking it... but at least it's better than the launchpad translation system.
10:09 kf i guess it's a question of available options
10:09 web based translation systems are not a huge market
10:10 and Pootle is still being developed and quite ok
10:17 paxed i'm a commandline guy. i hate most of web 2.0 stuff
10:33 kivilahtio__ I agree with paxed regarding the translation tools. Pootle is for non-technical people, but the way Koha deals with some translation strings is just beyond non-technical capabilities. Or can a non-technical translator really translate Koha without looking into code?
10:37 kf I think so
10:38 kivilahtio__ bug 7376
10:38 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7376 critical, P5 - low, ---, paul.poulain, Failed QA , Transfer limits should be checked at check-in
10:38 kf lots of the translators are not programmers
10:38 kivilahtio__ is paul_p working in this?
10:38 knock knock paul_p
10:38 kf maybe tr ysending an email if you get no reaction here - not sure how much he is around right now
10:38 * paul_p awakes :D
10:38 kivilahtio__ paul_p: wow I thought you are travelling the world!
10:39 paul_p: commented that bug, I would like to extend the bug
10:39 paul_p kivilahtio__ nope, I was in Rome yesterday & monday, but now I'm back.
10:39 kivilahtio__ paul_p: just asking so I am not stepping your toes
10:39 paul_p yikes, this bug fall in a pit...
10:39 I'll assign it to joubu now
10:40 kivilahtio__ actually I have some urgent stuff with data migration as well, but just curious if this is moving forward?
10:41 paul_p: this bug is a tricky one for sure :)
10:42 paul_p kivilahtio__ nope, because I "lost" this bug (and don't have a minute to dedicate to it). So I assign it to jonathan, he'll have a look
10:42 kivilahtio__ yes, it's a tricky one.
10:48 JDatTeTakere joined #koha
10:58 * kf waves to JDatTeTakere
11:17 paxed kf: unlikely. for example, non-coders have no idea what "%%" in the translation string means. (or at least i saw a comment in the finnish translation about "missing two s from %%" ...)
11:33 BobB_ joined #koha
11:35 * magnuse has never had to look at code to do translations
11:35 magnuse weird characters like %? just copy them over
11:39 paxed well, norwegian is a germanic language, ...
11:40 need to change the word order in the sentence? don't see how a non-coder can do that without trial and error.
11:41 magnuse ah yes, that might be a headache
11:41 paxed also, agglutination.
11:42 drnoe joined #koha
11:42 lds joined #koha
11:44 kivilahtio__ I wonder how they did it Arabics?
11:44 ...with Arabics
11:46 JDatTeTakere Sorry kf...so busy working on my KohaCon13 paper that I didn't notice your wave.
11:46 jcamins I'm sure there are some strings that didn't translate well, but for well-chosen strings, you just have to translate "around" the %s.
11:50 kf JDatTeTakere: shouldn't you be sleeping? :)
11:51 JDatTeTakere: looking forward to meet you soon - we arrive on the same day . well almost, i will be there quite late
11:51 meliss joined #koha
11:52 magnuse hey, i want to meet JDatTeTakere too! ;-)
11:53 Betimi joined #koha
11:53 Betimi Can I ask a question ?
11:54 paxed jcamins: if only it was translating "around" the %s - but i'm irritated how actual TT code gets inserted as %s, or even worse, as actual translatable text...
11:54 jcamins paxed: yeah, that's annoying, but I think not nearly as common as the %s's.
11:56 kf sometimes something slips
11:56 most likely bad constructs int he templates
11:56 feel free to send patches
11:56 I like the %s - they allow me to change the word order/grammar
11:56 Betimi Why I can't delete 2 records from catalog
11:56 even when I click them it doesnt open
11:56 it shows an error
11:56 kf your indexes are probably out of date
11:57 Betimi runtime error: file /usr/share/koha/intranet/htdocs/intrane​t-tmpl/prog/en/xslt/MARC21slimUtils.xsl line 76 element param xsltApplyXSLTTemplate: A potential infinite template recursion was detected. You can adjust xsltMaxDepth (--maxdepth) in order to raise the maximum number of nested template calls and variables/params (currently set to 250).
11:57 kf check if your rebuild_zebra is running regularly or try to reindex
11:57 oh
11:57 not sure about this error
11:57 you can try turning off the xslt view to get a look at those records
11:57 Betimi index is working because when I deleted other things from catalog they dont show more in search
11:57 kf which version are you using?
11:58 Betimi 3.12
11:58 collum joined #koha
11:59 paxed kf: again, you'd have to be a coder to know how the TT code works.
12:00 (and having the placeholder comment as "%1$s: END" doesn't help at all, when the IF/whatever isn't included...)

12:19 I'm looking forward to meeting KF and magnuse in equal amounts.  No fighting over the newbie.
12:19 magnuse but i'm not going to reno...
12:19 jcamins magnuse: you're going to KohaCon?!?
12:19 Aww.
12:19 That's what I thought.
12:20 magnuse ok, i'll stop whining about it now
12:20 JDatTeTakere Oh...you'll have to come to NZ then magnuse
12:20 * jcamins is disappointed.
12:20 kf magnuse was in nz :)
12:21 JDatTeTakere When - for the KohaCon in Wellington?
12:21 magnuse yup
12:21 * kf met magnuse there for the first time :)
12:21 magnuse and i'd be very happy to go there again!
12:21 * kf too
12:21 magnuse that is true
12:21 almost 3 years ago now
12:21 wow
12:21 JDatTeTakere Come and visit Te Takere...we just had our vist birthday.
12:21 magnuse more or less on the day 3.2 was unleashed
12:22 JDatTeTakere First!  Must need to be asleep.
12:22 * magnuse would love to see te takere
12:22 kf yeah, another kohacon in nz? :)
12:22 * magnuse even helped pay for it, a little bit ;-)
12:22 JDatTeTakere I'll bring photos  might be able to do a show and tell for those who are interested.

12:22 JDatTeTakere Which bit did you help pay for Magnuse? ;-)
12:22 kf JDatTeTakere: that woudl be quite nice - we saw the library in levin and stand in front of one of the branches I think
12:24 JDatTeTakere What was the ground floor of the old Levin Library is now the Youth Space.  Through a bright yellow door is the rest of Te Takere.  It's massive and very, very beautiful.

12:41 magnuse let's all wish really hard!
12:45 blou Anyone (beside wahanui) that could point me to some philosophical discussion/document regarding the difference between C4:: and Koha::
12:45 jcamins koha namespace?
12:45 blou Might be a bit early for N-A koha# to discuss philosophy before coffee
12:45 jcamins blou: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]oha_Namespace_RFC and http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]amespace_QA_Rules
12:45 blou thank you!
12:45 jcamins Hm.
12:46 That first one has almost no basis in reality.
12:46 coding guidelines?
12:46 wahanui coding guidelines are http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Coding_Guidelines
12:49 blou Lot of direction toward Koha:: and the way to modify it, but no explanation on C4.  I know it's the "original", but do we
12:49 1) try to make it disappear
12:49 2) leave it at peace
12:50 3) it's ok to add stuff in it.
12:50 The Calendar "class" really started the confusion... :)
12:51 ... the questionning.
12:54 NateC joined #koha
12:58 kf blou: where there is already a module, like Koha::Dates use that I woudl say
12:58 if you add a new module, do it in Koha
12:58 ideally
12:58 and else you can still add to C4 - what do you want to do?
12:58 (and that's how i understand it, but jared might disagree :) )
13:01 jcamins Koha:: should be used whenever possible, but code going into Koha:: should not have any dependencies on code in C4:: (other than C4::Context, C4::Boolean, and C4::Debug).

16:11 kivilahtio__ kf: Even when migrating patrons, my defined borrowernumber is ignored in C4::Members::AddMember  and  C4::SQLHelper::InsertInTable. I think it is deliberately left out, as there is code which deliberately removes it :)
16:11 kf: But I got it fixed no less. It is an interesting journey inside the legacy C4 modules
16:12 kf: But I just don't understand why primary keys shouldn't be migrated?
16:12 kf: nevermind that. It hopefully wont be an issue in the future
16:12 kf hm there are a lot of good presentations on migrating koha I think
16:12 oleonard kivilahtio__: Probably because one should let the database handle its own primary keys, since they are meant to be for "internal" use
16:13 kivilahtio__ kf: Migrating patrons and thei outstanding fines, circulations and reservations as well?
16:13 kf http://de.slideshare.net/druth[…]tionkudoscon-2011
16:13 this is one of them
16:13 well more abut the basics
16:13 but we have migrated all thos ewithout any primary keys :)
16:13 kivilahtio__ I understand if you only migrate biblios and items inside the biblio record
16:13 kf: then maybe I am doing something horribly wrong
16:14 kf not sure if it's wrong, we are of different opinion there
16:14 we let koha handle it's own numbers, and prepare the data in a way that we can load it - it's a different approach
16:15 kivilahtio__ kf: ah using barcodes
16:15 kf: that is a pretty good idea.
16:16 kf: I'll try doing that in my next phase. We had huge issues in calculating our barcodes from our legacy system, so maybe thats why I havent thought about that at all
16:16 but that was one great diashow
16:17 kf thre are more, pretty much evey kohavon the last 3 years i think
16:18 kivilahtio__ how about field 001 duplication? if our legacy system has analytic records linked in field 001 -> 773w, then field 001 has value of 4054. At some point new biblios try to share the old 001?
16:19 kf: so say we migrate 4050 biblios, when our librarian adds the 4054th biblio to the catalog, where does the field 001-number come from?
16:21 kf you could set it to the biblionumber, there is a patch for doing that
16:21 currently koha doesn't generate one
16:21 have to run! :)

20:06 If I use firefox with javascript disabled, the clicking the plugin icon does not popup a window.
20:06 tcohen seems reasonable

20:08 jcamins Well, at least the Unshelved people appreciate that their badges are absurd: http://www.unshelved.com/2013-10-2
20:08 oleonard IE doesn't respect your "scripting disabled" setting mtompset?
20:08 mtompset Perhaps I should restart it then try...
20:09 oh right... the whole tabs thing doesn't work if I restart.

20:47 cait1 we should name it
20:47 wizzyrea rangi++
20:48 jcamins cait1: "Dotty"?
20:48 cait1 jcamins: ?
20:48 tcohen is bot subject to bribery?
20:48 jcamins For a name.
20:48 cait1 oh
20:48 why dotty?
20:49 pianohacker Hmm. Who's petter? I think we're on the same flight from denver :)
20:49 jcamins 'Cause it's kind of like "Dobby" and kind of like "Bot."
20:49 wizzyrea dobby isn't a bad name actually
20:50 helpful house elf :)
20:50 rangi pianohacker: you should note that, he is from oslo public library
20:51 they are doing some funky cool things
20:51 pianohacker: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]for_presentations
20:52 pianohacker okay, cool. Hopefully we're actually on the same flight, and find each other
20:52 rangi *nod*
20:52 jcamins Look for someone from Norway.
20:52 wizzyrea rangi: what would be a good maori name that implies helpfulness/care?
20:52 rangi unlikely that there are 2 flights that land at the same time from denver
20:52 pianohacker hmmmm. Really wish I were staying for the hackfest...
20:52 rangi wizzyrea: manaaki
20:53 wizzyrea ^^ is what we should name our bot
20:53 rangi http://kupu.maori.nz/ShowKupu.aspx?kupu=224
20:53 wizzyrea thanks :D
20:54 pronounced how it looks?
20:54 rangi mah nah key
20:55 jcamins wizzyrea: my favorite response to that is "yes, if you pronounce things like they're Maori (or whatever language)."
20:58 wizzyrea that works for languages that use a latin alphabet I guess.
20:59 jcamins wizzyrea: I've heard people use that for other alphabets, too.
20:59 * gmcharlt will rename the bot in exchange for a chocolate fish
20:59 gmcharlt ;)
21:00 wizzyrea mostly that question implies "are there any oddities in the pronunciation that would be different from the language we are having this conversation in"
21:00 * wizzyrea gives gmcharlt a chocolate fish
21:00 makes a note to send some with rangi for the hackfest
21:02 * talljoy makes a note to look for rangi to bum some chocolate fish from.
21:03 rangi wizzyrea: http://www.nzhistory.net.nz/fi[…]tereo/manaaki.mp3
21:05 wizzyrea :D
21:05 thanks :)

21:06 wizzyrea be sure to get the emPHAsis on the right sylLAble
21:06 rangi after the south african corrected me on ubuntu on the eifl-foss webinar, i made a point of correcting him twice on koha
21:07 jcamins Heh.
21:07 rangi 2 can play that game buddy
21:07 wizzyrea oh what is the proper way
21:07 senator deb ee an

21:13 eythian hi
21:14 rambutan hi eythian
21:19 rangi pianohacker: there is a free shuttle to the hotel, so you and petter should be able to catch the same one at least

21:21 rangi 12.15 even
21:21 pianohacker rangi++
21:21 rangi i guess you need to tip tho eh?
21:21 * rangi doesnt understand your funny customs :)
21:22 wizzyrea for that? I probably wouldn't
21:22 rangi i just walk round giving everyone money
21:22 cos i have no idea what im doing
21:22 cait1 lol
21:22 we better keep an eye on you then
21:22 eythian qr code is <reply>https://lh6.googleusercontent.[…]10-no/JJ71iDv.gif
21:22 wahanui: qr code is <reply>https://lh6.googleusercontent.[…]10-no/JJ71iDv.gif
21:22 wahanui i already had it that way, eythian.
21:22 wizzyrea restaurants, yes; bellhops, yes; drivers of hotel shuttles... probably not
21:23 rangi ah ok
21:23 unless they are cool and play good music in their shuttle?
21:23 cait1 heh
21:23 rambutan depends on if they help you load luggage
21:23 cait1 oh good point
21:23 wizzyrea mmm yes, agreed on that point
21:24 help meaning "pick it up for you" not "open the trunk"
21:24 hankbank joined #koha
21:24 rangi ah ok
21:24 jcamins wizzyrea: you don't need to tip drivers?
21:24 wizzyrea and yea, if they're cool and play good music, nobody will probably turn down a tip
21:24 jcamins I mean, shuttle drivers.
21:24 * jcamins didn't know that.
21:24 wizzyrea I haven't ever observed this, but I'm from the uncultured midwest
21:24 rangi hehe
21:25 too complicated!!!
21:25 :)
21:25 jcamins I know nothing about tipping.
21:25 wizzyrea ^
21:25 cait1 i guess different for cabs
21:25 then for free hotel shuttles?
21:25 wizzyrea I could ask my friend who drove an airport shuttle for a while
21:25 jcamins Yeah, you tip cabs.
21:25 wizzyrea do you?!
21:25 really?!
21:25 wahanui really is off now
21:25 rangi oh yeah you definitely do cabs
21:25 * wizzyrea is never going to new york ever.
21:26 wizzyrea well I've already been there
21:26 rangi i know that one
21:26 jcamins I never take taxis for that reason.
21:26 wizzyrea but I didn't (fortunately) take any cabs.
21:26 jcamins Well, that and that they're just generally expensive.
21:26 rangi i once caught one from teh bus station in toledo, to the hotel by the conference center
21:27 it cost about as much as my flight from nz
21:27 (i exaggerate slightly)
21:27 jcamins Heh.
21:27 wizzyrea well after the conversion you're probably close.
21:27 (I exaggerate slightly)
21:27 jcamins I was talking to someone the other day who took a cab from DC to New York.
21:27 wizzyrea oh my lord.
21:27 rangi wtf
21:27 jcamins I want to say the fair was... $700?
21:28 wizzyrea that seems less than I would have expected. That or it's closer than I think.
21:28 jcamins DC and New York are incredibly close.
21:28 Well...
21:28 maybe not "incredibly."
21:28 rangi yeah i rode the greyhound from nyc to washington dc
21:28 jcamins But I know people who commute.
21:28 rangi that was an experience
21:29 http://web.archive.org/web/200[…]t/confprogram.php  <-- what i was doing in toledo
21:29 wizzyrea ooo
21:30 jcamins 11674*4
21:30 11674 * 4
21:30 wahanui 46696
21:31 jcamins I wonder why wahanui requires spaces.
21:32 wizzyrea cait i've been meaning to ask you about your money on card report - it takes ages to run do you just cron/email that?
21:32 cait1 i guess ^^
21:32 rambutan tan 30
21:32 tan(30 radians)
21:33 cait1 wizzyrea: money on card?
21:33 wizzyrea: help my memory?
21:33 wizzyrea yep sec
21:33 http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Library#Patrons_w.2F_Fines
21:34 cait1 hm
21:34 it's not slow on our small databases
21:35 i think it coudl be made faster maybe?
21:35 wizzyrea i suspect there are a gazillion accountlines entries in this particular database
21:35 no worries
21:35 cait1 sorry, not much help there i guess :(
21:35 wizzyrea is alright
21:38 jcamins wizzyrea: I think there are a couple other things that you tip for in New York but not in the rest of the country.
21:38 I can't remember what things, but I think there are some things.
21:39 wizzyrea it's rather optional to say, tip your hairdresser, they always give you the opportunity but it's not required.
21:39 eythian wizzyrea: check to make sure it's using indicies properly?
21:39 wizzyrea really, if you thought your haircut was really good and you're walking out feeling like a million bucks, then yea a tip is probably worthy.
21:39 hm
21:40 eythian wahanui: tips are weird.
21:40 wahanui OK, eythian.
22:01 mtj hey wizzyrea, did you get your question to me answered, from yesterday?
22:01 wizzyrea oh it was aobut the tweet bot
22:01 he seemed stuck
22:04 thd-away` joined #koha
22:07 mtj ah yep, sorry about that  :/
22:07 wizzyrea :) is np
22:07 mtj i'll test him outta channel for a few days, before i bring him back online...
22:08 wizzyrea twas kind of a busy twitter day for #kohails yesterday
22:08 jcamins mtj: what is the goal of tweetbot, btw? I only ever notice it when it's spamming the channel.
22:09 I presume it's doing something during the NZ day, when I'm not around.
22:09 mtj it queries twitter every 5-ish  mins, and posts #kohails tweets to this channel
22:10 jcamins Ah.
22:11 mtj its goal is to titilate and inform
22:12 …but when my linode vm runs out of disk, it also drives people batshit :(
22:12 jcamins Heh. What else do you run on it?
22:13 edveal joined #koha
22:13 eythian should put nagios checks on it :)
22:13 thd-away joined #koha
22:14 mtj yeah, i know know!
22:14 i might fix it proper this time
22:15 jcamins Go for it!
22:16 thd-away` joined #koha
22:18 mtj but pleease kick him quick, if he ever goes crazy again
22:19 wizzyrea ah ok
22:20 thd-away` joined #koha
22:20 wizzyrea he'll not try to reconnect if kicked?
22:20 NateC joined #koha
22:20 mtj sorry, i think i mean banned, not kicked
22:22 wizzyrea ah okies
22:22 edveal Does anyone know if Koha considers an item as "available" if it is available for pick to fill a hold and another patron wants to place it on hold, yet on shelf holds is off? Is that clear as mud?
22:22 thd-away joined #koha
22:23 rangi no idea, you'd have to test it to see :)
22:23 id guess no
22:23 because onshelf doesnt actually check its on the shelf
22:23 it checks its not on loan
22:24 and it wont be onloan if its just waiting
22:24 wizzyrea ^^
22:24 waiting items are not on loan, and so show as availab.e
22:24 available*
22:24 onshelf holds would disallow further holds
22:24 (if it's off)
22:24 cait1 hm
22:25 edveal Thank you that was what I thought just wanted to verify.
22:25 wizzyrea it'll do that until it's checked out
22:25 thd-awa`` joined #koha
22:25 wizzyrea a librarian can override that though, i think.
