00:20 dcook eythian: Were you the one that linked that wesome i18n youtube video?
00:20 Maybe it was cjh...
00:20 eythian twas me
00:21 dcook What's the title or link again?
00:21 * dcook is going to include it in an email :p
00:21 eythian it's by tomm scott
00:21 -m
00:21 dcook Beauty. Cheers
00:21 eythian wahanui: internationalisation
00:21 wahanui eythian: what?
00:21 wizzyrea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0j74jcxSunY
00:21 dcook winning, both of you
00:22 wizzyrea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5wpm-gesOY this one is pretty good too.
00:22 dcook Prepare for yet another Zebra email ;)
00:22 I don't know how ES or Solr would do it either though..
00:23 "it" being...
00:23 How to treat "special" characters
00:23 In Danish, å and aa are the same thing
00:23 But they sure aren't in English
00:23 So you might be able to specify that rule at search time, but what do you do at indexing time?
00:23 * dcook 's head explodes
00:24 dcook You also can't map å to a in Danish, I think, as those are completely different characters
00:24 Although for sorting purposes, maybe you can get away with it
00:25 * dcook imagines that Indexdata must be as sick of hearing from him as koha-devel :p
00:26 eythian my hypothetical solution was to note the language the record was in and use that information when ES analyses it.
00:26 not sure if it'd work, I didn't give it a lot of thought
00:28 I don't think I would consider doing full dumps a few times per day any sort of best practice.
00:29 JoshB joined #koha
00:29 cait hm yeah
00:30 wizzyrea sigh.
00:33 dcook The only thing is that records aren't necessarily in just one language :/
00:33 Yeah, I wouldn't do multiple full dumps a day
00:33 I certainly wouldn't consider it "incremental" either
00:36 I'd never heard of incremental MySQL backups though... although it looks perhaps like it's an "enterprise" thing?
00:36 Ah, I guess you could use the binary logs..
00:37 * dcook is going to stop being sidetracked...
01:00 cait bag++
01:00 hm i think we might backup transaction logs?
01:02 dcook I don't know if transaction logs are necessarily that useable though
01:02 I think you can playback binary logs?
01:02 * dcook pretends not to be distracted
01:04 cait heh
01:05 i think you can restore with what we have to a certain hour during a day
01:05 but i might got the name wrong
01:09 * dcook shrugs
01:15 eythian dcook: if records contain multiple languages and you can't flag them on a field-by-field basis, you've already lost.
01:18 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnOE-m-UdQA <-- cait, when you visit Amsterdam again, beware you don't end up on the wrong train
01:21 dcook eythian: Yeah, I think we've already lost as well.
01:21 I guess DSpace does flag things on a field by field basis...
01:21 MARC--
01:21 I'm thinking an intermediary format would be awesomesauce
01:21 But it would have its own challenges... especially as library folk are hardwired for MARC
01:22 Well, except the ones who've never heard of it...>_>
01:22 rangi which is most of them
01:22 people seem to forget that
01:22 wizzyrea ^
01:23 eythian dcook: you saw my talk slide about that...
01:24 (specifically, it was this image: https://eutopialaw.files.wordp[…]syndrome-logo.jpg )
01:25 cait heh
01:29 dcook hehe
01:30 I was thinking about this recently...
01:30 Why do libraries want to use MARC?
01:30 Well, copy cataloguing
01:30 So you need to be able to ingest MARC
01:30 Easy
01:30 Do they really need to be able to export it? Perhaps...
01:30 rangi not really no
01:30 pretty much no one wants it
01:31 dcook Well maybe not "want"
01:31 cait hmm not sure that's true
01:31 dcook But it's a requirement a lot of the time
01:31 rangi national libraries want quality records
01:31 not your locally catalogued stuff
01:31 cait i think it depends on the type of library
01:32 rangi i can't think of anything, other than another library, that would ever want a MARC record
01:32 dcook Ahh, I see what you're saying rangi
01:32 Possibly another system
01:32 Like an aggregator/discovery/whatever thing
01:33 And just for lack of another standard
01:33 rangi yep
01:33 cait use cases i can think of are union catalogs
01:33 rds
01:33 databases
01:33 wahanui databases are not automated.
01:33 cait and i have had all that happen
01:33 rangi yes, just other libraries
01:33 no one else in the world wants it
01:33 cait also... if you ever want to switch to another ils
01:34 rangi then your marc records probably have to be massaged/fixed anyway
01:34 which takes about as long as making them
01:34 * rangi has done a few migrations now :)
01:34 tcohen joined #koha
01:34 cait we migrated only from one system that gave us marc so far
01:34 and it was the fastest one
01:35 the fastest migration
01:35 dcook rangi: I was thinking a bit about bibliographic data and the rest of the world...
01:36 I suppose that's why Worldcat is a thing
01:36 No reason why so many libraries need to have their own copies of Record X
01:36 The library just needs access points for physical and electronic resources
01:36 I need to write a blog post and link it for LODLAM...
01:36 wizzyrea the reason is because of rule 123.
01:36 rangi i dont think there is any need to store it as MARC anymore
01:37 hasnt been for 20 odd years
01:37 dcook Agreed
01:37 Well at least not internally
01:37 tcohen jared set a great starting point with Koha::MetadataRecord
01:37 dcook Maybe serialize it as MARCXML inbetween systems, although even then...
01:38 rangi tcohen: yep, he did, we should revisit that
01:39 * dcook always meant to look at that
01:39 dcook Not me volunteering though :p
01:40 * dcook has his hands full with Zebra and all the other things..
01:40 dcook But yeah, we don't have to use MARC with Zebra either
01:40 We could use any XML format
01:40 I was actually thinking about that too...
01:40 tcohen dcook: leave the MARCXML alone, add other formats :-D
01:41 dcook That's what I mean :p
01:41 Well, MARCXML would have to go
01:41 The only thing I would want is to be able to import/export
01:41 tcohen and why not put patron data there too? (ES or Zebra)
01:41 dcook But not use it internally
01:41 I don't know if there would be any advance to that
01:41 advantage*
01:41 tcohen we end up writing weird code trying to implement some relevance sorting when we have the tools to do it right
01:41 dcook Hmm?
01:41 rangi yup
01:42 dcook What do you mean about relevance sorting?
01:42 tcohen I mean auto-complete features
01:42 rangi we can index users in ES
01:42 tcohen you cannot give them just an alphabetic sort
01:42 dcook Ahh
01:42 tcohen it becomes useless
01:42 cait we coul dindex everything there... and have facets :)
01:42 orders... with facets for the vendor... the date...
01:43 dcook index all the things!
01:43 tcohen I knew a librarian would embrace it :-D
01:43 dcook I wonder sometimes how difficult it would be to separate MARC out..
01:43 Probably a million times harder than my wildest imagination
01:45 rangi i reckon just ingest it, stick it somewhere, and never touch it again
01:45 bag yeah I really want to index users in ES - that’s something coming down the road
01:45 when we’ve got the time
01:46 dcook rangi: I like that idea, although I wonder how many libraries will want MARC out
01:46 rangi the longer we keep showing people MARC, the longer we prolong the problem
01:46 no one should ever see it
01:46 cait true
01:47 it's not for users
01:47 dcook true true
01:47 When I say someone, I mean a library/librarian
01:47 rangi creating MARC records isn't hard
01:48 dcook Creating accurate ones isn't easy :p
01:48 rangi if someone really wants one
01:48 dcook The leader and controlfields can be... less than fun
01:48 Although who really pays much attention to those anyway
01:48 The core content would be easy enough to export as MARC
01:49 And if we have an extensible internal format, it's not necessarily that hard to add new fields if we need them
01:49 * dcook still wishes he understood linked data better
01:49 dcook I think it has to rely on a local cache...
01:49 Otherwise you couldn't index anything
01:50 And then you must refresh your cache from the linked source..
01:50 tcohen dcook: you need to feed a search engine, it is easier to have them locallyç
01:51 eythian search engines need a steady supply of human flesh, after all.
01:51 dcook ^
01:52 tcohen: So you feed the search engine a local cached version... do you also display that local cached version?
01:52 I find the idea of importing linked data interesting..
01:52 Which is probably a uniquely library problem
01:52 Well maybe not..
01:52 But the idea that you'd write your own linked data records for your holdings...
01:52 tcohen dcook: why not think another use cases? like importing a thesaurus
01:52 dcook Because you need to describe what you have/have access to..
01:53 tcohen: A thesaurus is general though, so that should be easy enough
01:53 What I mean is..
01:53 You have Records 1-100
01:54 Or rather... Items 1-100
01:54 And you can get records 50-100 from the national library
01:54 But you have to write your own 1-49 records
01:54 So you write your records... maybe link to the national library for authorized terms or to their thesaurus
01:54 But then you import the other 50-100?
01:55 Who would want your data?
01:55 It's not necessarily unique
01:55 tcohen dcook: do you want them to be searchable from a UI for the end user?
01:55 dcook Of course
01:55 No point having them if the user can't search for htem
01:55 them*
01:55 tcohen you need to grab them, each time you want to index them
01:56 dcook Right
01:56 tcohen i'd have a local cache, probably through OAI sets harvesting or smth like that
01:57 dcook O_o
01:57 So you have multiple caches?
01:57 One for the original record, and one for the dereferenced record?
01:57 The dereferenced record gets fed to your search engine and shown to users
01:57 The original is used to update the dereferenced records
01:58 You get the original records either via OAI-PMH or manual cataloguing or some other method...
01:58 I've been thinking about duplicates with that scenario as well...
01:59 In theory, the URI/IRI for the records you harvest via OAI-PMH will still point to the original source
01:59 But... you're hosting those records now
01:59 So surely you'd need to re-write that
01:59 e.g. <bf:Text rdf:about="http://bibframe.org/resources/sample-lc-1/148862">
02:00 And then how do you serialize that for other people who want to link to your content?
02:00 50-100 are just copies from the national library
02:01 I should put that in the blog post :p
02:09 tcohen dcook: it needs to simplify things, otherwise something is not ok
02:14 cait night all
02:14 wahanui goodnight cait. You'll be back.

04:50 can someone guide us doing it in koha

07:36 is there anything I need to change in config file?
07:36 does anyone know how to solve it?

08:20 but i suspect at least for normarc there is something wrong with the config there, so the only available format is marcxml

20:55 wizzyrea I am sure rangi does
20:55 but I'm not sure who else, maybe the wiki knows
20:56 http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]te_Administration shame - it's not documented. we should find out and write it down
21:02 http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]istration#jenkins.koha-community.org tcohen, for when you find out
21:05 eythian hi
21:11 tcohen joined #koha
21:13 tcohen wizzyrea: in the meantime have some one fire it up should work
21:19 cait me waves
21:19 * cait waves even
21:19 cait oh now i missed tcohen
21:20 eythian it's because you waved wrong
21:20 wizzyrea THERE IS NO WRONG WAVING.
21:20 * Dyrcona waves odd
21:20 wizzyrea nope, still right.
21:23 cait heh thx wizzyrea!
21:25 pianohacker cait: did you see the bug I poked you about?
21:25 cait i was gone all day today
21:25 let me take a look now
21:25 pianohacker oh kk
21:25 it's not urgent, just looking for info
21:25 cait ah
21:25 it hit qa queue after feature freeze
21:26 tcohen joined #koha
21:26 cait sadly - because i'd like to have that too
21:26 we are focusing on bugs for now - until the release is out
21:26 pianohacker so you've been taking a breather? That makes sense
21:26 cait ?
21:26 pianohacker I'll tell them it'll get a look later on once the 3.24 cycle gets rolling
21:27 thank youuuuuu
21:27 cait if breather = break - then nope :P
21:27 just focusing on bugs vs enh for now
21:27 pianohacker heh, well, from big features
21:27 cait because bug fixes still get pushed
21:27 pianohacker thank god ;_;
21:27 thanks for helping me get that rancor bugfix in quickly
21:28 JoshB joined #koha
21:28 cait got a quick sign-off -
21:28 hector++
21:28 pianohacker yup
21:28 indeed
21:34 cait wizzyrea: the list bug sounds bad
21:34 do you know if someone is owrking on it?
21:34 wizzyrea I don't
21:34 pianohacker list bug?
21:34 wizzyrea idk about "bad" but it's pretty annoying
21:34 idk how many people "select all -> add to list"
21:34 i mean, I do that when I'm testing lists because it's an easy way to get a ton of stuff in a list.
21:34 pianohacker a bug number, my kingdom for a bug number
21:35 wizzyrea bug 15203
21:35 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=15203 normal, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , select all -> add to list from a result page in the OPAC gives you double ups in your list
21:35 pianohacker gracias
21:35 that, um.
21:35 wizzyrea note I haven't tried in master.
21:35 cait i think it's OPAC... so bad
21:35 very bad
21:35 hm lt me check that whie the tests run :)
21:36 tcohen joined #koha
21:37 wizzyrea ah yeah, it still does it on master
21:38 cait hm wierd it works ok for me
21:38 wizzyrea hmm
21:38 pianohacker cait: it's not _losing_ data
21:38 cait opac - result list - select all - add to new list?
21:38 pianohacker in fact, it's kindly making sure you have two copies of it!
21:38 wizzyrea pianohacker: can you replicate it?
21:38 it is possible that I have something weird about my db or something.
21:39 pianohacker um lemme try
21:39 cait wizzyrea: i can't add the same records twice...
21:39 wizzyrea it's not explicitly adding them twice
21:39 cait my list stays at 20 entires = 1 result list hm.
21:40 wizzyrea let me look at what's in the database
21:41 "List deleted with success." lol this message.
21:41 that's aside.
21:42 it is definitely displaying double ups on the list result page for me
21:42 and only when select all
21:42 but it's not putting doubles in the db
21:42 pianohacker wft
21:43 wizzyrea was that a wfm or a wtf?
21:44 pianohacker what's a wfm?
21:44 cause the answer may be both
21:44 wizzyrea works for me
21:45 pianohacker oh
21:45 Viktor joined #koha
21:46 pianohacker wizzyrea: can't dup
21:46 cait wizzyrea: hm checing the views again
21:46 wizzyrea that's so weird. I can get it every time
21:47 cait private or public list?
21:47 wizzyrea I tried with both
21:47 cait hm
21:47 wizzyrea http://pix.toile-libre.org/?img=1447883251.png
21:48 * wizzyrea reindexes
21:48 tcohen @later tell rangi is it possible to kick the jenkins server, just in case it wakes up?
21:48 huginn tcohen: The operation succeeded.

21:49 cait wizzyrea: can we tickle?
21:49 wizzyrea yes
21:49 that is fine
21:49 eythian @fish wizzyrea
21:49 huginn eythian: I'll give you the answer as soon as RDA is ready
21:49 eythian hmm
21:50 wizzyrea no I don't want to be slapped by a trout.
21:50 cait wizzyrea: doubles up records in your db?
21:50 wizzyrea >.< yes
21:50 * wizzyrea dumps that database, we are breaking up for good.
21:50 * cait sends chocolate
21:50 cait ... I had a bad bugzilla day yesterday too
21:51 Francesca joined #koha
21:51 wizzyrea that completely explains the database though
21:52 of course it's got the 20 in there. because there were 10 records, twice. Ugh.
21:53 cait hm
21:53 how do i best find hte one suppressed record in my db...
21:53 ah . sql.
21:53 wizzyrea yeah.
21:54 how come normarc isn't an option in the installer, don't we support it?
21:54 just curious
21:54 I don't actually care that it's not there
21:54 but someone might.
21:56 cait hm i think it only appars for norwegian
21:56 Francesca good morning
21:56 wahanui well, it's morning somewhere, yes
21:56 cait i think the normarc sample data/frameworks etc. only exist in the norwegian web installer
21:56 so it doesn't get listed when you run it in another language
21:57 wizzyrea aha
21:58 bless you all for putting up with my dumb questions
22:00 pianohacker that's not actually a dumb question
22:00 I would have been surprised by that too
22:04 cait wizzyrea: ... i just did one of those fail qas where immediaely after you hit 'save' in bugzilla, you know it's your fault
22:04 wizzyrea <sympathy>
22:04 pianohacker I knew it!

22:07 hm go wheel i would translate to drive wheel...
22:07 and i have no idea about into-the-groundening
22:07 eythian that doesn't make it better
22:07 cait we have 'under-the-earth-bringing' tho...
22:07 wizzyrea hm. I'm thinking about how we "hide" setting permissions
22:08 pianohacker ?
22:08 eythian cait: is potato "ground apple" there too?
22:08 wizzyrea I just had the rather daft thought that maybe that function should be a tab on the side
22:08 instead of under "more"
22:08 cait that depends on where you ask people in germany :)
22:08 eythian fair enough :)
22:08 Francesca lol ground apple
22:09 cait wizzyrea: hm not sur aboutthe tab... we already got so many and it only applies to a few users
22:09 pianohacker yeah...
22:09 * eythian notes that "orange" (the colour) in English comes from "orange" (the fruit.) Not the other way around.
22:09 pianohacker the interface could use some love tho
22:09 Francesca interface?
22:09 wahanui it has been said that interface is optional.
22:09 Francesca what for?
22:09 cait eythian: and most of those words are very fitting!
22:10 eythian cait: sure, but not creative :)
22:10 cait pf
22:10 eythian good poing
22:10 cait what's a naked snail in english?
22:10 wizzyrea slug
22:10 eythian what is with "pferd" anyway?
22:10 who puts "pf" like that?
22:10 cait horse?
22:10 wizzyrea permissions is both a function and a view
22:11 eythian also pfepper or however you say it :)
22:11 cait pfeffer
22:11 = pepper
22:11 eythian that's right
22:11 wahanui no it's not.
22:11 wizzyrea Francesca: for the borrower details/circulation pages
22:11 Francesca oh
22:12 cool
22:12 wizzyrea that more menu is a hodgepodge of "stuff"
22:12 * Francesca just pays attention to the idea that something needs prettying up
22:13 cait true
22:13 like the more at the top :)
22:13 wizzyrea I've never been sure why cataloguing was under "more"
22:14 it's 50% of the reason a librarian might use Koha
22:14 cait hm and tools
22:14 wizzyrea (give or take)
22:14 pianohacker yes
22:14 there should be a rancor button in the top toolbar
22:14 instant rancor
22:14 cait with a little dinosaur?
22:14 pianohacker I think the star wars character would make a lumpy, angry icon
22:15 wizzyrea http://images.fun.com/products[…]-rancor-plush.jpg
22:15 pianohacker hehehe
22:15 wizzyrea actually I'd love to fix up the tools page.
22:16 oh there was another thing I wanted to do to the label creator too.
22:16 I wanted to add that "tools" sidebar to it
22:16 to match many of the other tools
22:16 cait ew
22:16 wizzyrea: i'd like that
22:16 maybe add a bug?
22:17 wizzyrea yeah actually that's an omnibus, there are quite a few tools that don't have it
22:17 uneven in application :/
22:17 there are probably tools that aren't listed in the sidebar too
22:19 that... will be a challenge on the "tags moderation" page because of the filters that are already in that sidebar.
22:19 that's going to take some thinking

22:34 buut thats just me
22:34 wizzyrea nah, green is bad for colour blind people
22:35 * Francesca thinks guiltly of the dashboard
22:37 eythian green for differentiation can be bad
22:37 for decoration I think it's OK
22:38 cait yeah red/green as indicators for something are not good
22:38 Francesca thats good
22:39 wizzyrea (I like green for decoration, but not for things like links)
22:39 Francesca mmm
22:42 tcohen joined #koha
22:44 wizzyrea if you looked at me whilst coming in to work today, you'd realise that I actually quite like green, generally. :)
22:45 tcohen khall_away: I love the font awesome icons
22:45 cait i think they appear... clearer?
22:45 wizzyrea they are
22:45 cait somehow
22:45 wizzyrea they scale better.
22:45 cait yeah
22:45 tcohen they look polished
22:46 even if they are… similar
22:46 wizzyrea I think they're vector
22:46 tcohen is that thing…
22:46 cait svg i tink
22:46 wizzyrea ^
22:46 tcohen yes, they are
22:46 cait some look a bit or more different to before
22:46 wizzyrea our designers were asking about adding fontawesome yonks ago
22:46 so they were pretty excited when I told them :)
22:46 Francesca font awesome?
22:47 cait not sure if it's availalbe for opac yet
22:47 wizzyrea it's only a matter of time amirite
22:47 Francesca what is font awesome?
22:47 cait and someone has to do it heh :)
22:47 wizzyrea Francesca could do that :0
22:47 :)
22:47 cait Francesca: svg picture you can use like characters in a font
22:47 Francesca oh cool
22:47 cait ... but someone else can probalby explain it better
22:47 Francesca lol
22:48 wizzyrea google knows everything ^.^
22:48 cait i hope not :)
22:48 Francesca and so does wahanui
22:48 wizzyrea well it knows everything about font awesome :P
22:48 cait okok :)
22:48 Francesca this looks awesome
22:49 wizzyrea I'd hope so, since it's got "awesome" in the name.
22:49 * Francesca makes a note to use font awesome on one of her old webpages
22:49 Francesca lol
22:49 wizzyrea you should do that, and then go through the opac and fix the icons everywhere to use font-awesome
22:50 Francesca I could do that yeah - how do I get to the opac though
22:50 tcohen can we focus on bug fixes? for a couple days?
22:51 we will then revamp the whole project
22:51 bag will take care
22:51 heh
22:51 eythian just rewrite it in java
22:51 Francesca I can do pretty stuff once bug fixing is done
22:51 bag :)
22:51 I’m looking at bugs :)  that’s my day
22:51 tcohen no no Francesca
22:51 the pretty stuff cannot wait!
22:51 Francesca yay!
22:51 wizzyrea ^
22:53 Francesca well let me set up font awesome on my own page first
22:53 then I shall turn my attention to the opac
22:53 wizzyrea yep, that's a sound plan
22:54 Francesca might not get started on the opac till tomorrow though - have choir stuff this afternoon
22:56 I'm looking at this font awesome stuff and wishing I'd known about it before
22:56 its just so awesome
22:56 dcook joined #koha
22:57 dcook Thanks for QAing that bug, cait :)
22:58 You're a legend!
22:58 cait ... when is say it looked just easier than the sip bug next to it... will that destroy that reputation?
22:59 dcook Nah, still a legend :)
22:59 cait it's not quite true either
22:59 dcook That it was easier?
22:59 cait we have fallen for the opacsuppression trap a lot of times
22:59 i think it's a good fix
22:59 wizzyrea Francesca: http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14915 looking at the patches for this might give you an idea of where to start or how to go about it.
22:59 huginn 04Bug 14915: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, Pushed to Master , Use Font Awesome instead of Glyphicons for the staff intranet
23:00 cait it certainly was - i still need to get my sip test enviornment working again
23:01 Francesca wizzyrea: thanks I'll take a look at those
23:02 tcohen Francesca: a good strting point would trying  to make the main submit button on the staff interface match the rest of the interface's style
23:02 Francesca I can also take a look at that - just not right now as I have to do other stuff
23:03 wizzyrea yep, there's no rush really
23:03 Francesca so much fun! so much stuff to make pretty!
23:03 cait Francesca++:)
23:07 dcook cait: I'm glad you liked it :)
23:07 barton|away: I hope that all my Zebra emails have been helpful ;)
23:07 cait: It's unfortunate that the opacsuppression patch is needed, but hopefully that will reduce the number of headaches and support calls over that issue
23:08 bag nice job barton chili
23:12 barton|away dcook: they are 'helpful' much in the way that Mt. Everist is 'big'.
23:12 :-)
23:12 bag gonna run some updates on my computer wish me some lucks (hopefully I return :) )
23:13 cait fingerscrossed :)
23:13 dcook Last time I ran some updates on my laptop, I spent a fair while afterwards re-installing everything...
23:13 So bonne chance!
23:13 * bag knocking on wood and all that
23:13 dcook barton|away: :p
23:14 I think in the future it might be worthwhile to use the Zebra and YAZ from Indexdata's repositories rather than the Debian ones...
23:14 The Debian maintainer for Zebra doesn't seem all that keen on maintaining it
23:14 Perhaps one of us could take over maintaining
23:14 it
23:14 ...
23:14 barton|away hmm.
23:14 dcook I'm going to have a baby soon, so not it.
23:14 :p
23:15 * dcook thinks tcohen is also a legend
23:15 dcook tcohen++
23:15 cait++
23:15 barton|away hm. that's a bit more than I want to bite off.
23:15 dcook I want to do a lot of projects, but I know my limits...
23:15 barton|away I'd vote the same way :-)
23:16 tcohen dcook: i can build a debianzebramaintainerbox vagrant with all you need for maintaining it
23:16 cait wnickc++
23:16 barton|away by the way dcook, your email about zebra logging was a piece of awesome that I wasn't expecting.
23:16 tcohen easy
23:17 dcook tcohen: Well, I am intrigued by the technical aspects... but I think the political aspects would be the tougher part
23:18 I don't necessarily want to commit to a role that I couldn't invest in
23:18 I'm already overworked as it is... although of course right now I'm in IRC, but that's probably a testament to how much work I have at the moment...
23:18 Need a few minutes to breathe between things
23:19 wnickc cait++ all the time
23:19 barton|away @dcook++ all the time, when it comes to zebra.
23:19 huginn barton|away: I'll give you the answer as soon as RDA is ready
23:20 tcohen zebra is ok, but it is no longer a profitable project for indexdata (it hasn't been for a while) so we need to move away from it, ASAP
23:20 it is a legacy project
23:20 for them
23:21 cait kind of a pity.... we finally start to figure out all th things
23:21 and all the mistakes we made...
23:22 tcohen we should've taken advantage of DOM a long ago!
23:22 opacsupression would be a candidate
23:22 calculating vailable items ,et
23:22 c
23:22 many things we do *after* we get the data from Zebra
23:23 I hope we do it right in ES
23:24 cait hope it doesn't take us as long to learn from past mistakes at least...
23:24 tcohen i think zebra will be around for another year and maybe more
23:25 cait i think probably more
23:25 tcohen so probably worth fixing a couple things hm
23:25 cait i'd say so
23:37 ... and when i wake up... someone has magically signed off Bug 14870        - Delete C4/Dates.pm from System please? :)
23:38 the last missing pieces to get rid of C4::Dates for good...
