08:18 eythian hi cait
08:19 if that's even your real name
08:22 cait suddenly so doubtful?
08:23 eythian I heard that suspicion is healthy
08:23 * paxed hands eythian some tin foil
08:24 eythian I'm on to you, paxed: https://www.theatlantic.com/he[…]-thoughts/262998/
08:45 sophie_m joined #koha
08:55 paxed eythian: oh dang
09:39 magnuse huh, anyone ever tried to password protect the intranet with apache basic auth? it's... weird
09:43 oha magnuse: how weird?
09:44 it "should" be fairly transparent. unless you hit some caching issue
09:45 magnuse once i log into the basic auth koha does not ask me for a username/password
09:45 and it says i am the database user
09:45 my basic auth username is displayed in the top right corner
09:46 oha apache sends some headers, maybe koha "honors" them?
09:46 let me check
09:46 magnuse yeah, that must be what is happening
09:47 on the admin homepage i only see lists, authorities and "About Koha"
09:48 oha it does: if ( !$shib and defined( $ENV{'REMOTE_USER'} ) and $ENV{'REMOTE_USER'} ne '' and $userid = $ENV{'REMOTE_USER'} ) {
09:49 i think this might be exploited easily
09:52 magnuse as in security vulnerability?
09:52 if so, would you mind reporting it at https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]t=Koha%20security ? i couldn't explain the problem properly, i think
09:53 and better not talk too much more about it here ;-)
09:53 Infra_3600 joined #koha
09:56 oha i'm trying to replicate it, then i will
09:56 magnuse oha++
09:59 oha with plack it seems safe, probably apache wipe it in front
10:09 cait joined #koha
10:16 petter joined #koha
10:19 oha magnuse: it is safe. apache always intercept those headers. but it isn't if you run it on plack "alone"
10:19 or if you use another frontend
10:20 magnuse ah
10:23 oha but it is meant to work that way, delegating apache for the authentication
10:23 it should be conditional tho
10:24 you could try to set X-Remote-User to an empty string, and avoid the "feature"
10:24 or patch C4/Auth.pm and set it to undefined
10:26 magnuse thanks!
10:57 clrh hi
10:57 (am reading the gdpr log meetting)
10:58 is there a way in bugzilla to classify the bugs rely on the gdpr ? (keywords ?)
10:59 josef_moravec clrh:
10:59 there is an omnibus bug for gdpr
11:00 bug 18081

11:00 clrh great soryy josef_moravec :)
11:00 josef_moravec clrh: some work need to be done, another meeting will be held ;)
11:01 clrh great josef_moravec - maybe a discussion in hackfest next week will see
11:02 josef_moravec i think it will be, but I will not attend to Marseille unfortunately :(
11:02 clrh if something happenned you should see it in bz or wiki :)
11:03 josef_moravec Yes! ;)
11:18 khall @later tell LeeJ take a look at the links on bug 17489. I can POC something in the KitchenSink plugin if you want me to.

13:53 cait clrh: sure!
13:53 clrh++
13:57 thd joined #koha
14:01 oleonard Is there supposed to be a meeting now?
14:01 clrh I think you're right oleonard :)
14:02 * thd thinks so.
14:02 oleonard I guess it's on the calendar but not on the wiki
14:02 thd It is in the wiki.
14:03 But maybe not all the possible wiki pages.
14:03 oleonard Okay, it's not on *this* page of the wiki https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]IRC_Meetings#2018
14:03 thd I never check that page :)
14:04 https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]ting_7_March_2018
14:04 tcohen next meeting?
14:05 thd I did not check to see if there was a reminder to the mailing list.
14:05 tcohen https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]Next_IRC_meetings
14:06 ^^^ that's the page to check
14:07 * oleonard sets fire to the IRC_Meetings page
14:07 thd Yes, tcohen has the best page.  The other list is an archive of links.
14:08 oleonard: The archive page is good for find past meetings but it has been a long time since I filled in gaps on that page.
14:08 * tcohen would set fire to all the wiki with those categories
14:08 tcohen its too complicated to browser
14:08 s/r$//
14:09 NateC joined #koha
14:09 talljoy joined #koha
14:10 kellym joined #koha
14:11 thd tcohen: One long term task I have in mind is to fix alpha sort for meeting pages so that the category finds meetings chronologically.  That would be a big page renaming project which is about last in importance of things to fix.
14:11 Independently, of notice and wiki pages, are there enough people here for the meeting to hold one?
14:11 tcohen the best option is to just drop the automatic sorting using categories and such, and have a normal wiki, then improve
14:12 thd tcohen: What is a 'normal' wiki?
14:12 tcohen a browseable one
14:13 cait joined #koha
14:13 tcohen check this page and tell me how do you feel in front of it: https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]egory:Development
14:14 talljoy joined #koha
14:14 tcohen the data is there, but just complicated to read
14:14 a manually crafted TOC would do better I think
14:15 thd By automatic sorting I meant by date in ISO format.  Something like Meeting_2018-03-07_General_IRC_Meeting not General_IRC_meeting_7_March_2018.
14:16 Freddy_Enrique joined #koha
14:17 thd Yes, I intend to create a manual TOC when I have time to work on Koha again.  Right now I have no time to sleep even while filling in for someone out of the country.
14:17 Meanwhile, anyone else may create a manual TOC.
14:18 Independently, of wiki pages, and mailing list notices, do we have enough people here to conduct a meeting?
14:19 oleonard Is the wiki still running on a really old version of MediaWiki?
14:20 thd oleonard: Yes, the reason is that to move it off Postgres to MySQL may only work for an old version.
14:20 oleonard: If we upgrade we may be stuck with Postgres which is insufficiently well supported by MediaWiki.
14:21 The only migration scripts are even older than the version we are on.
14:21 roch joined #koha
14:21 DonnaB joined #koha
14:22 thd Postgres was chosen in haste as a generally good database choice without enough research when the old wiki was shutdown.
14:23 Doing things in haste always creates problems and I had not seen the MediaWiki page if it existed at the time listing bugs and other reasons not to use Postgres.
14:24 laurence left #koha
14:25 thd For planning to fix the wiki I linked to migrating to MySQL as the next most important step.
14:26 I should have time to go back to working on that this summer.  Meanwhile, others are welcome to try.
14:28 DonnaB joined #koha
14:28 thd http://www.winterrodeln.org/tr[…]PostgresqlToMysql
14:29 oleonard thd you're in NYC aren't you?
14:29 thd Yes.
14:29 oleonard What do you think of the advisability of using a 6-hour layover in Newark to take a train to NYC and look around?
14:30 thd oleonard: I have not taken the train to Newark in a few years so my information may be out of date.
14:32 georgew joined #koha
14:33 thd Infrequent train service and delays in the two trains previously needed had left me worrying that I needed 3 hours to be safe for travelling between Newark Airport and NYC.
14:34 oleonard Sounds like I'll be writing Koha patches from an airport lounge then
14:35 thd Maybe 3 trains.  The terminal shuttle train.  The train or bus between Newark Airport and the Path Train.  Path Train to NYC.
14:36 oleonard: Schedule a 24 hour layover.  Maybe I can find you a place to stay for free.
14:36 oleonard Thanks thd :) It'll have to be next time
14:37 thd So is the meeting now abandoned?
14:38 oleonard We had a very productive wiki discussion and then one about trains. wahanui, please compile the logs for us.
14:40 * thd needs more sleep between the time he has to return to continue filling in for someone who is out of country.
14:41 JoshB joined #koha
14:41 oleonard I love it when a patch starts magically working. I'd better put that in the test plan.
14:48 thd oleonard: The most important thing to understand about the current travails of the wiki is that use of MediaWiki was meant to be one of multiple experimental tests for consideration as an alternative to the then implementation of Dokuwiki.  When the Koha Dokuwiki was turned off as a silly tit-for-tat response to putting up a copy of Bugzilla run by the community, then suddenly the only experiment running became the wiki to which people started ad
14:48 ding content and time testing, planning, correcting implementation blunders was gone.
14:50 m23_ joined #koha
14:51 * thd tries to get some sleep before too many more long hours at work.
14:56 oleonard Surely there's a way to export [im]portable data from MediaWiki...

17:13 huginn mtompset: kidclamp was last seen in #koha 21 hours, 53 minutes, and 36 seconds ago: <kidclamp> I usually just hardcord it into the script honestly :-)
17:13 * mtompset cringes.
17:13 * kidclamp is lazy
17:13 mtompset I understand.
17:14 cait joined #koha
17:20 kivilahtio I anybody using an external logistics optimization system?
17:21 mtompset I recognize those words, but is that English? :)
17:21 kivilahtio mtompset: no idea.
17:21 mtompset: But I hope you also recognize what I am after?
17:22 cait can you give an example? i have no idea :)
17:22 mtompset Sadly, no. Hence, my less than useful comment.
17:23 kivilahtio We are trying to cut down transportation costs, by instead of satisfying the topmost hold in the queue, looking a bit deeper into the holds queue and satisfying the most cheapest transfers to fulfill first
17:23 cait ah
17:23 that woudl be similar to the transportcostmatrix but also changing the order of holds?
17:24 kivilahtio also we are looking at implementing more intelligent transport logics together with a university specializing in logistics
17:24 cait there is something to give local holds (same library) priority already
17:24 but nothing else messing with the sequence I think
17:24 kivilahtio like deeply analyzing "demand" for a particular biblio on a transport route and moving items there pre-emptively to satisfy the predicted/known demand
17:26 cait: pretty much so, transportcostmatrix and order of holds. Maybe we will build or use an external system to run simulations on different algorithms to see how they work with our production data.
17:26 mtompset Sounds like you want a tool to analyze issues and holds and then change the items homebranch.
17:26 kivilahtio mtompset: good idea
17:26 mtompset Sounds like a plugin might be in order.
17:28 kivilahtio But at the first phase I would need a system to run simulations on different algorithms. Planning should we develop it in-house or if anybody is using somekind of a logistics optimization system?
17:28 Simulations would be important so we can have some confidence that the proposed algorithms actually help
17:29 There are a lot of ideas how to improve the logistics, but this project is strictly about developing an algorith to more aggressively optimize the holds queue.
17:35 cait kivilahtio: can't help it but seems unfair :)
17:35 everything that messes with the sequence seems a bit fishy to me
17:35 kivilahtio cait: in a way it is unfair
17:35 cait: but it will make the average waiting time for a reserve to be fulfilled shorter
17:36 so the organization performs better in that aspect, also less time for items spent travelling == less costs
