11:59 atheia Hi #koha
11:59 I have a question about the difference between 'holdingbranch' and 'homebranch'…
12:00 Intuitively I would think 'homebranch' is the place where an item lives, and 'holdingbranch' is where an item might be currently at (e.g. it might have been sent to a different 'holdingbranch' to satisfy a hold).
12:01 By extension, a branchtransfer changes the 'homebranch' rather than the 'holdingbranch'.
12:01 Is this more ore less accurate?
12:01 oleonard That sounds correct atheia

15:42 AndrewIsh hey guys, quick question. for the module i'm currently building, i need to be performing a barcode search on the catalogue and getting the matching item
15:42 cait hi AndrewIsh :)
15:42 AndrewIsh i've been looking in catalogue/search.pm for some pointers, but that didn't help much
15:42 jenkins_koha joined #koha
15:42 AndrewIsh hey cait
15:43 is there a module for doing this sort of thing?
15:44 there are lots of promising sounding modules being used in search.pm, and my next step was to poke in each one to see what it does, but my laziness got the better of me
15:44 hence this question
15:44 cait i think i wouldn't go into Search.pm for that
15:44 what is it for?
15:45 AndrewIsh sorry, search.pl
15:45 cait I think that circulation uses the database, not Zebra
15:45 but I don't really have an idea where to look - maybe someone else knows?
15:45 AndrewIsh so, we're building a stock rotation feature, as part of that it's necessary to add items to a stock rotation rota, hence needing to be able to find items
15:46 oleonard AndrewIsh: That sounds similar to the lists feature which allows you to add to a list by barcode
15:46 kchris joined #koha
15:46 oleonard Maybe that would be a place to look?
15:46 AndrewIsh oleonard: there are similarities, but it's also different in some ways
15:46 oleonard: ah, yes, good point!
15:50 oleonard: bingo! C4::Biblio::GetBiblioFromItemNumber - thanks! :)
15:50 oleonard Cool

18:32 kchris Does anyone have experience using the SYNC_REPO  variable with Kohadevbox? I have spun up a dev box without it, and now want to test patches. Is there an existing kohaclone directory?
18:35 talljoy joined #koha
18:38 cait joined #koha
18:46 tcohen1 joined #koha
18:48 Joubu kchris: you need to export the SYNC_REPO variable before the vagrant up command
19:01 kchris Joubu: I wonder if I can halt and provision it with that variable now?
19:02 Joubu maybe ssh before and remove what may have been cloned
19:02 tcohen kchris: yes
19:02 kchris I didn't use the variable initially because I was starting from scratch and didn't have an "existing" repo.

20:11 khall_away: anything to add here?
20:11 cait #info 16.11 has entered feature slush
20:11 tcohen I'd like to mention Jenkins
20:11 khall_away Not that I can think of
20:11 tcohen it's been having problems
20:11 to connect to the nodes
20:11 bag tcohen: the floor is yours
20:12 tcohen and is probably one of the reasons some failing tests were not highlighted properly
20:12 i'm sorry for that
20:12 I'm talking to Laurent (from Biblibre)
20:12 cait something to #info?
20:12 tcohen about alternatives to fix it
20:13 cait #info Jenkins is having some problems connecting to the nodes, tcohen is working on it with Laurent
20:13 Joubu (bugs 17537-40 fixes somes tests)
20:13 tcohen #info Jenkins is having issues and tcohen is working on that, a temporary server has been set and tcohen will post to the list, so people notice the failing tests
20:13 cait: you type way faster than me LOL
20:13 cait ;)
20:13 JesseM Hello
20:13 wahanui hello, JesseM
20:14 cait preparing to change topic :)
20:14 #topic Elections
20:14 Topic for #koha is now Elections (Meeting topic: General IRC Meeting, 2 November 2016)
20:14 JesseM #info Jesse Maseto - ByWater Solutions
20:14 rangi #info Chris Cormack - Catalyst
20:15 cait #link https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]i/Roles_for_17.05 Roles for 17.05
20:15 fridolin Laurent is on vacations this week, he will come back monday
20:15 cait the page has filled up the last few days and we have candidates for most of the roles
20:15 tcohen fridolin: thanks
20:16 cait before we start voting, are there questions to the candidates, about the roles or whatever that we should discuss before elections?
20:16 bag I would like to add Joubu to the RM as a back-up (alternate) for pushing code that ByWater has authored
20:17 does that sound acceptable?
20:17 fridolin indeed
20:17 * tcohen doesn't trust him that much
20:18 khall_away Lol
20:18 JesseM :D
20:18 cait me neither, but... ok
20:18 :)
20:18 Joubu I think it may be good to have author + push from different companies
20:18 cait agreed
20:19 khall_away Completely
20:19 rangi yep
20:19 Joubu at the beginning I asked for push access to fix small things
20:19 tcohen I think the bigger the team, the more collisions there can be
20:19 but I think you can manage it
20:19 Joubu or to fix timezone incompatibilities
20:19 if it means something...
20:19 rangi one thing id like to bring up, wrt RMaints
20:19 tcohen +1 from me
20:20 rangi can we please go back to no enhancements being backported
20:20 (or refactoring)
20:20 drojf +1
20:20 rangi we've had a few too many bugs in the stable releases
20:20 cait rangi: that's my plan
20:20 rangi cool
20:20 drojf and i built every single package twice
20:20 not doing that again
20:20 rangi yeah
20:21 cait i will try to be careful and check with devs when not sure about something
20:21 fridolin refactoring indeed is useless for stable branches
20:21 cait yep
20:21 Joubu basically you 'just' need to check the status and the dependencies
20:21 if it's a enh or ft, don't push it
20:21 fridolin sometimes some patches are defined as enhancements but may be considered as bug
20:21 tcohen the caching refactoring was a special case
20:21 Joubu if it depends on an enh or ft not in stable branches, don't push it
20:22 fridolin basicaly I'm ok
20:22 cait I think if we need dependencies for a bug fix we can take a closer look - if pushing them is better than having to write a different bug fix patch
20:22 fridolin there may be some exceptions but mainly branch must be "stable"
20:22 tcohen i wouldn't have backported those, but I understand it was the rmaints call
20:23 rangi yeah
20:23 schnydszch joined #koha
20:23 rangi thats all I wanted to bring up anyway
20:23 cait also some real small enh might be good to have - as frido said, sometimes it's a bit of a grey area with bug or not
20:24 fridolin RMaint is a real job ;)

20:50 indranil, Brooke and David haven't added themselves
20:50 have you been in contact with them?
20:51 thd Indeed, however, I think indrag is OK with inclusion but everyone listed is merely an implied volunteer.
20:52 It is really the support for the proposal which I am seeking.
20:52 Anyone can join in.
20:52 Joubu Is it the same proposal as the one for 3.20, 3.22, 16.05 and 16.11?
20:53 thd Yes, unfortunately all my tame was taken helping my elderly friend avoid eviction for 2 years.
20:53 That is now thankfully over.
20:53 s/tame/time/
20:53 BobB congrats thd, awesome achievement
20:54 drojf i ẃas wondering, can we separate the wiki from the release team? it has not really a connection to release cycle. and you plan to start in february, while release cycle is november to may. its an ongoing task like website etc, we dont have roles for that either
20:54 Joubu yes, congrats. It's good news
20:54 BobB it would be great to have a team of wiki maintainers, but maybe we just elect thd now and add the others when they consent?
20:55 thd It was added to the roles in the past so I re-added this time.
20:55 cait sounds good to me BobB
20:55 BobB I take droif's point too
20:56 but its a role we really need
20:56 thd I had meant merely to indicate that others were willing but the category was missing and might not have put themselves forward without the category.
20:56 BobB yep
20:56 barton +1 for the role.
20:57 drojf we certainly need it and i welcome everyone working on it, i just dont see the connection to the releases

21:04 cait #info dates are June 13 to 17, 12 being independence day in the Philippines
21:04 Joubu I preregister not to have to pay 100$ if I can come
21:04 maybe I should not tell that...
21:05 bag bbias
21:05 Joubu (I can bargain it if I cannot attend, something like 50$ ;))
21:05 schnydszch We're trying to negotiate the venue rental hence the fee. The venue rental is Php100,000.00 per day. We will be presenting in the 17th
21:05 rangi did we find out why we are breaking the tradition of no fee for kohacon?
21:06 schnydszch Or you can help us in making it free :)
21:06 Nigeria charged 150
21:06 http://kohacon15.projektlinkko[…]com/registration/
21:07 BobB schnydszch you need to make a budget for the conference
21:07 rangi yep, and that was unpopular and decided not to do it again, it was free again in greece
21:07 BobB then when you know how much you need we can work out how to fund it
21:07 thd In the case of Nigeria, that was sadly an issue for safety of the venue location.
21:07 bag and it ended up being safe
21:08 BobB Philipinnes has its issues too
21:08 schnydszch We will try to make it free as much as possible. We're waiting for a meeting with the organization registered with the securities and exchange commissi9n of the philippines so we can solicit even local companies
21:08 * rangi will bow out, im not planning to attend anyway so others can decide
21:08 bag yes it does - just looked at the usgov state department - and it is not on the no travel list
21:08 cait #info 10 people already preregistered, please register if you plan to attend (link to the form was send to the mailing list)
21:09 BobB parts of the country are 'no travel' on the Australian advisory
21:09 but the wider problem is an apparent breakdown in the rule of law
21:10 I'll be making bookings, but keeping an eye on that situation
21:10 schnydszch You can help us make it free if you can send us figures to be added for the presentation to ayala museum bosses like cost vis-a-vis proprietary

21:10 schnydszch No worries BobB
21:10 bag singapore airlines has very cheap tickets flying from san fransisco
21:10 cait schnydszch: have you sned out a call for sponsors yet?
21:11 schnydszch Not yet cait. After our meeting with the Association of Special Libraries of the Philippines
21:12 but the form has a clause if they plan or their company plans on sponsoring
21:13 drojf ebsco asked me about sponsorship options
21:13 where should i forward that to? (email)
21:13 schnydszch Are they okay with jusf the name of the volunteers first?
21:14 drojf i don't know what is interesting for them, you have to talk to them
21:14 schnydszch Please email me eugenegf@yahoo.com. info@onstrike.com.ph info@tulong-aklatan.com.ph
21:15 drojf ok
21:16 cait ok, somehting to add?
21:16 otherwise moving on :)
21:16 as we are runnign late, i'd like to not discuss Kohacon18 this time
21:16 schnydszch By the way, we're also waiting for the result of the gra t proposal from the National Commission for Culture and the Arts
21:16 * LibraryClaire says goodnight
21:17 schnydszch Of the Philippines to help us defray expenses.
21:17 BobB you need a budget ... then you know how much you need :)
21:18 cait ok, moving on unless somoene stops me fast :)
21:18 thd cait++
21:18 cait #topic Bugzilla vs. Github/Gitlab
21:18 Topic for #koha is now Bugzilla vs. Github/Gitlab (Meeting topic: General IRC Meeting, 2 November 2016)
21:18 cait petter: still there?
21:18 wahanui there is one... but i don't know it
21:18 schnydszch The last time an international conference was held in the Philippines, it was full of locals
21:18 rangi i have to run out to a meeting soon, but ill quickly note down my thoughts
21:19 not opposed to gitlab (with caveats)
21:19 fundamentally opposed to github (i find telling people they should use FOSS and then using proprietary tools to dev it is hypocritical)
21:19 cait schnydszch: I think locals are good actually :)
21:19 thd rangi++
21:19 wizzyrea rangi++
21:19 rangi the caveats are, that with gitlab .. how do we implement our signoff/qa process
21:19 schnydszch Hence the preregistration. Althougb we can say that we won't accept walk-ins, there will always be those who will not follow
21:20 cait it also means people have to register with a service we can't control
21:20 schnydszch Okay that's all for now :)
21:20 rangi do we end up with gerrit or some other peer review tool? which is arguably much harder to use than git-bz
21:20 those are my thoughts anyway
21:20 tcohen1 we can have our own gitlab setup
21:20 schnydszch We want to control.it to 250 or less :)
21:21 tcohen1 I don't like gitlab, but we could
21:21 cait schnydszch: sorry, running late today - didn't want to interrupt you
21:21 Joubu rangi: harder to use but much more efficient for reviews
21:22 schnydszch I'm done already. The floor is yours :)
21:22 BobB schnydszh typically KohaCon is mostly local people, with varying numbers of international attendees
21:22 rangi Joubu: yep, it does cut down the pool of users signing off tho .. when we need to increase that
21:22 BobB locals are good, as someone else said
21:22 schnydszch Noted BobB
21:22 rangi Joubu: so I see that as the problem that we need to solve .. maybe there are better tools than gerrit now?
21:22 cait before we consider a switch, i'd like to see how we can handle things in our workflow, i have no experience with gitlab, but adding a quick follow up or rebasing for a new dev should be easy to do
21:23 Joubu did not find something else when I had a look
21:23 thd To my knowledge Bugzilla has significantly more features which can be customised suitably than any competing bug tracker.  I do not know why anyone would want to use something with fewer options to turn to our purpose.
21:23 wizzyrea it took years of iteration to get to the process we have now
21:23 changing it will require a similar amount of time.
21:23 rather, changing it to a point where it is as natural and understood as it is now will take that long.
21:24 I'm not opposed to it (though I am opposed to github. full nopetopus.)
21:24 Joubu I think we need to wait for petter to get the pros :)
21:25 BobB its also very important that it be accessible to librarians, not just devs
21:25 Joubu I personnaly find gitlab slower than bugzilla (maybe because I did not optimize it on my server)
21:27 barton How does gitlab compare to bugzilla in terms of searching for bugs?
21:27 cait #info please refer to full logs for discussion - lots of info there
21:28 barton ... that's my only gripe with bugzilla.
21:29 drojf did i miss the part about why we should switch to something else in general?
21:29 rangi drojf: i think petter is not here to talk to that
21:29 drojf ah ok
21:29 cait hm he was there at the beginning
21:29 we might have lost him
21:29 drojf we voted too long
21:30 cait barton: i think bugzilla's search is mighty, we just don't use the same terms often for the same things, that's the issue that makes it hard to find stuff :)
21:30 in my opinion not a thing that a new tool can solve
21:30 barton I can't argue with that...
21:30 rangi maybe the problem is we write bad bug descriptions :-)
21:32 cait i think we have colleced a lot of info
21:32 drojf good night, gotta sleep off the flu. don't change all infrastructure until i'm back :P
21:32 cait or opionins
21:32 let'smove on?
21:32 Joubu We improved it a lot, but we can always do better
21:32 thd Maybe we should add some guidance about how to describe a bug better for easier finding.
21:33 barton thd++
21:34 bag move on
21:34 barton that too.
21:34 * rangi has to go to a meeting at the nz treasury dept .. ill try to fix the world economy when im there
21:34 rangi bbl
21:34 bag well we’ve got that going for us now ;)
21:35 barton heh.
21:35 Next topic?
21:35 wahanui Next topic is a tricky one...
21:35 cait #topic Support provider registration email list
21:35 Topic for #koha is now Support provider registration email list (Meeting topic: General IRC Meeting, 2 November 2016)
21:35 cait sorry, got distracted
21:35 i am not sure who added that
21:35 barton I did.
21:36 bag we jumped over the marketing one
21:36 barton yeah, that's more important.
21:36 cait coming back tot hat
21:36 barton Ah. Ok.
21:36 bag ah ok :)
21:36 cait barton: can you quickly explain?
21:37 barton so quickly, as I understand it, In India, there's a law that says that support providers
21:37 need to register with some governing entity...
21:37 so we get a lot of requests added on the Koha mailing list.
21:38 rangi (not a law, lots of people put 'must be a registered support provider' in their RFP)
21:38 wizzyrea 1 we are not and have never been a governing entity.
21:38 rangi the longest running Koha supporter
21:38 barton It's an important function, but I think that it lowers the signal to noise ratio.
21:38 wizzyrea 2 what rangi said
21:38 rangi indranil only registered this year, because of that RFP madness
21:38 its not a law tho .. just a bad idea
21:38 and now i have to get in a taxi ;)
21:38 BobB they totally misunderstand what the list is - it gives no credit or endorsement of any kind
21:39 cait i think if we limit to a list
21:39 wizzyrea 3 i am glad to have the many eyes on them
21:39 cait it will ge tless eyes on it
21:39 i don't mind them oing to the main list
21:39 barton right ... anyway, I'd like to move that discussion off the koha mailing list.
21:39 wizzyrea oppose that
21:39 the subjects should be filterable if you don't want to see them
21:40 cait i think they hsould not be hidden on a separate list to be honest
21:40 wizzyrea ^
21:40 cait they belong in the ocmmunity channel
21:41 thd cait++ ; wizzyrea++
21:41 Joubu I clicked on some links once, and almost 1 out 2 does not provide a link to k-c.org or any mentions to Koha
21:42 wizzyrea it is an important function that many people check them
21:43 BobB India's a problem - more Koha users than anywhere else on the planet and very few contributions to the project (Indra honourably excepted)
21:44 cait a lot of the support providers listed are not active contributors
21:45 wizzyrea BUT we do not limit people from being listed based on that
21:45 cait not only from india - but i think that's not something we can do much about it
21:45 wizzyrea the only requirements are the ones stated
21:45 cait and if we tried to - what kind of contribution makes it valid?
21:45 to get listed
21:45 Joubu It may be better to maintain a list of active contributors, by company
21:45 wizzyrea we aren't going to try to. I'd drop the list first.
21:45 Joubu (we already almost have it with the dashboard, but only on 1 year)
21:45 cait we also have the git stats
21:46 wizzyrea But I agree with joubu, that list could be helpful as a supplement
21:46 the list of code contributors
21:46 cait not so pretty, but you can see a lot there if you want to
21:47 wizzyrea anyway, next topic?
21:47 cait ok
21:47 any action to take her before we move on?
21:47 thd wizzyrea++
21:47 cait #topic Koha Marketing Group or Committee
21:47 Topic for #koha is now Koha Marketing Group or Committee (Meeting topic: General IRC Meeting, 2 November 2016)
21:47 barton wizzyrea++
21:48 cait last one for today, thx all for being here still :)
21:48 handing over to bag
21:48 bag ok I wrote my notes out - so I will just copy and paste
21:48 then give everyone a minute to read
21:48 I think that we should have a group that is in charge of marketing Koha.
21:48 Plenty of ideas here.  Spotlight libraries that are using Koha and tell their stores
21:48 website content
21:48 blogposts
21:48 press releases
21:48 marketing series on all the great things that Koha already does and has been doing for years (like multi-tenant or webservices)
21:48 Something that would help fight FUD ;)
21:48 Anyways I was thinking that we start a little group or committee that would be interested in doing that.  NateC has volunteered to be the lead on that - get the meetings going - offering a place to host the meeting - so ideas can flow.
21:48 Should we do this?  And how do we start?  Any one here interested in volunteering to help?
21:48 Maybe call it the Koha Informations Group
21:49 wizzyrea sorry bag I have to run but I am for this initiative
21:49 BobB This idea came up at KohaCon14 in Cordoba iirc
21:49 bag yes but we never pulled the trigger BobB
21:50 I think NateC is ready for it now :)
21:50 BobB its a good idea, if there people to carry it forward
21:50 wizzyrea do let me know if you require any things from the website. I've been meaning to do a not-slight overhaul of it anyway
21:50 NateC This could also help with the last issue that was discussed, in that contributing companies are spotlighted more so than those that are not by talking about the devs that were added
21:50 Ive been ready for this for a long time. We don't have a loud enough voice in the global library community
21:50 wizzyrea (nothing drastic, just tidying and adding/removing content)
21:51 bag cool wizzyrea - noted ;)  we’ll make sure that any committee or group works with you :)
21:51 wizzyrea we certainly can't compete with the funding that ebsco has for their not-at-all-revolutionary thing
21:51 bag good luck at your meeting
21:51 wizzyrea ha thanks :)
21:51 bag So should we take this to the mailing lists to look for volunteers?
21:51 NateC wizzyrea: correct, but some social media and press and content is much better than none
21:52 bag that sounds like an action for NateC?
21:52 schnydszch Question on place natehas in mind? Virtual or real place?
21:52 bag virtual
21:52 wahanui i think virtual is available at https://www.virtualbox.org/
21:53 cait we also discussed this in 'Marseille a bit
21:53 bag most likely zoom or hangouts or something like that - whatever we could agree apon that has a low barrier for participation
21:53 cait maybe we just need to rename a few things :)
21:53 schnydszch Haha
21:53 thd We should be just a little cautious about avoiding the effect of advertising for particular support companies in presenting case studies, etc.
21:53 bag very true cait
21:53 NateC basically if I get the blessing from the community I can run with this
21:54 BobB so what is the motion here? That we endorse efforts to form a Koha Marketing group?
21:55 schnydszch It seems I can volunteer on this
21:55 bag ok so cait I think the next action - is NateC takes this to the mailing list and asks for volunteers to join in
21:55 BobB ^^
21:55 schnydszch: awesome!!
21:55 wahanui That'll be NOK 10 for the awesome jar, bag
21:55 bag NateC: I also noticed that David Nind said he would join in too with you
21:55 cait #action NateC to take the Marketing Group idea to the mailing list to ask for volunteers
21:55 bag so you’ve got 3 ;)
21:56 BobB cait +1
21:56 NateC ok am i taking it to the list to create the group, look for volunteers or both?
21:56 cait both sounds good to me
21:56 bag both NateC
21:56 BobB yep
21:56 NateC ok
21:56 cait i don't think someone will oppose the general idea
21:57 NateC until after the fact you mean cait ;)
21:57 bag ha
21:57 ok that’s it cait - move on ;)
21:57 tcohen1 hehe
21:57 BobB two hour meeting, is this a record?
21:57 cait #topic Set date and time for next meeting
21:57 Topic for #koha is now Set date and time for next meeting (Meeting topic: General IRC Meeting, 2 November 2016)
21:58 khall_away Probably!
21:58 cait Joubu: awake still?
21:58 thd Number of items on the agenda may be a record.
21:58 BobB December 7?
21:58 cait yeah, lots of info in the logs
21:59 ok by me
21:59 BobB time?
21:59 wahanui i think time is like a big ball of wibbly wobbly... time-y wimey... stuff. or generously donated to giving support in #koha but if you need more help faster than we can give it try http://koha-community.org/support/paid/
21:59 cait i was hoping Joubu could help me out with a meeting time suggestion
21:59 Joubu erk
21:59 yes
21:59 sec
21:59 cait and i'd like to ask if someone wants to give chairing a try
21:59 Joubu https://framadate.org/3dAEB8zqQLzzTptD
21:59 says
22:00 1 or 2 pm is the best
22:00 cait i will probably be around if any help with the bot is required and there is a wiki page now too :)
22:00 Joubu but it was for dev meetings
22:00 cait 2 utc?
22:00 wahanui 2 utc is unfair to europe, not everyone
22:00 BobB here joubu, or where you are?
22:00 Joubu yes
22:00 JoshB joined #koha
22:00 JoshB left #koha
22:00 Joubu but we will need to find another one to switch with
22:01 cait i think the problem might be not many votes from oz/nz
22:01 Joubu people can continue to vote :)
22:01 bag 2 utc and 14 utc?
22:01 or is 12 hours off bad
22:02 BobB we're 10 hours ahead of europe now, NZ12
22:02 thd 2 UTC had problems of extremely low attendance when we tried for an extended period in rotation.
22:02 cait 2 utc is 3am
22:03 that's in my black zone
22:03 i can get up early... but not that early :)
22:03 Joubu I said 2pm
22:03 not am
22:03 BobB we can never solve this, everyone time is bad in either europe, us, or south asia/oceania
22:03 cait Joubu: can you send a tim econverter link?
22:03 Joubu or you are searching for another one...
22:03 cait is that 14utc then?

22:09 Joubu Thanks cait
22:09 good night/day all!
22:09 thd We should always be prepared to revisit issues, but I think that we are moving away from what had been a good consensus which was least bad for almost everyone.
22:09 BobB cait I can chair when you can't but I cannot offer to do it regularly
22:09 and a european is more likely available for most meetings
22:09 thd s/what/what hours/
