00:01 tuxayo > CPAN is a bit of the wild west
00:01 > There's no QA
00:01 That might not be a problem if we follow the cpanfile right?
00:02 > I figure inertia will carry us forward on the same path that we've been on for a long time
00:02 If it's reachable to maintain a support with Carton rather than packages, could it become a second major way to installing Koha? In parallel with package install on Debian based systems.
00:03 dcook Well, we're still banking on the CPAN versions being good. The Koha community isn't going to audit each CPAN module I reckon.
00:03 Mmm maybe but there's limited community resources. If someone wanted to support a Carton method, there would be no stopping them though. And if it did become useful, then I'm sure it would evolve.
00:04 At the moment, I think there are still some obstacles, as even in Plack some scripts have to go via CGI
00:04 Until Bug 22417 is finished

00:06 Thanks, that's help setting directions on what to work on this topic ^^
00:07 dcook Oh that reminds me...
00:07 tuxayo: You used to be at BibLibre but now are independent? Can you speak more to that? Happy to do private message if you don't want to talk about it on the public channel
00:08 tuxayo I will do with pleasure, after a call.
00:09 dcook Great :)

01:12 am i getting the time for NZ?
01:12 Oh wait
01:12 Australia
01:13 dcook :D
01:14 So yeah just curious how being independent works
01:14 I recall Jonathan getting funding from BibLibre and ByWater? Is it like that?
01:14 tuxayo > You used to be at BibLibre but now are independent? Can you speak more to that? Happy to do private message if you don't want to talk about it on the public channel
01:15 By default I'm talking about that here if case someone else has feedback.
01:16 > So yeah just curious how being independent works
01:16 For now for me it's the french public unemployment insurance that makes it work ^^
01:16 I will hopefully be able to change that.
01:16 https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]nity_work/Funding
01:17 > I recall Jonathan getting funding from BibLibre and ByWater? Is it like that?
01:17 1/3 BibLibre, ByWater, PTFS-E
01:20 The idea is to work on community stuff were I can be effective. I brainstormed in a "guidelines" page.
01:20 https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]yo/Community_work
01:20 I should rework it to make it more clear as things are becoming concrete.
01:21 And speaking of concrete I'm trying to make reports of community work.
01:21 dcook Ahhh ok. Good to know!
01:22 It's been good seeing how active you are
01:23 BobB joined #koha
01:23 dj joined #koha
01:23 tuxayo The idea is that a support company, library committed to the project or a user group could assess the value of the work done.
01:23 Enough to them fund it.
01:24 irma joined #koha
01:24 dcook Sounds interesting!
01:26 inlibro joined #koha
01:26 tuxayo > It's been good seeing how active you are
01:26 The last month with the release caused a focus on signing off which was very visible.
01:26 I hope that the value of RMaint and UI tests writing can similarly "felt"
01:26 *similarly be "felt"
01:26 dcook It's a good question
01:27 tuxayo Because I think that's has more value and I hope to mostly do that.
01:28 And of course with tasks picked randomly from the needs.
01:28 But these will be concrete enough, I'm not worried about that.
01:30 In the long run I see the following: one chunk of RMaint, one chunk of UI tests (new or maintenance), one chunk of signoffs and one of diverse stuff.
01:31 > one chunk of signoffs
01:31 On tricky stuff like with painful setup. (LDAP, shiboleth, CAS, and other technical patches)
01:34 And maybe also librarian stuff that is though/long to test. I might need to find a volunteer for the library stuff and show stuff with screensharing. Pairing signoffs could be fun ^^
01:35 I'm thinking for example about the revamped circulation rules UI. That kind of patch that might struggle to get tested.
01:39 dcook Yeah that's true
01:40 It's a tough one. I think client hosting, support, and training is where vendors get their income.
01:40 Development, testing, and management is tougher to monetize I think
01:40 Less so development I suppose, but it can still be risky
01:41 Like right now I'm doing some RabbitMQ work but I'm not generating income for it directly. It's mostly to improve some local customizations that we've created over time for support purposes...
01:42 khall joined #koha
01:48 tuxayo > tougher to monetize I think
01:48 Indeed, do you know any other source than vendors, user groups and libraries active in the community to fund community work?
01:50 I hope that this pattern of funded community work could be applied to any software project that and a large enough quantities of full time workers on it.
01:50 Like enough support companies with enough people.
01:51 And I hope that Koha is large enough for at least Jonathan full time and me part time ^^
01:53 When we try to think about the number of full time librarian whole main digital tool is Koha it should be obviously doable. But things aren't that simple.
01:56 In between, there is a saturated marked for software, so not a lot of margin to fund maintenance and indirect tasks like signoffs and RMaint and RM and QA.
01:57 > a saturated marked for software
01:57 And other things I don't know
01:59 dcook Yeah I think that's the thing
01:59 I'm actually often curious about other vendors and their product sets...
01:59 Like I support Koha, DSpace, and a tonne of other apps for other clients
01:59 I'm not 100% on Koha (although years ago I used to just do Koha and a it of Dspace)
02:00 Part of the cost of having lots of skills heh

03:07 Indeed I'm not reachable by that email anymore ^^
03:07 I should ask if I got some interesting emails. Like the one you mentioned!

07:38 Null404 hi all
07:39 cait1 good morning #koha
07:41 Null404 cait1: I think I found a problem with translation: every time when I get: sudo koha-translate pl-PL -u I got .po files for Koha 18.05, but on main system I got 18.11 on test one 19.11 and these two have .po for 18.05
07:42 and on 18.05 this one https://translate.koha-communi[…]ld&sfields=source,target&unit=12516646&offset=0 was fuzzy and untraslated
07:43 and to fix it I need to download new .po to /usr/share/koha/misc/translator/po catalog
07:51 Joubu tcohen: you should have added that we don't really support newer version of DBMS because of strict mode. Focus should be on that if we start to deprecate things.
07:51 I mean, we support it, not "out of the box". We trick to make it work
07:51 and hi #koha
07:52 cait1 Null404: I am not sure I am following
07:52 the po files will update using the templates in your sysem
07:52 they don't know about versions really
07:52 the -u doesn't download anything, it just uses what is in oyur system and compares to the templates there
07:52 if your versions don't match between test/production etc that will lead to inconsistencies
07:54 ashimema @later tell dcook I'm also keen to move us slowly towards cpan and carton.. but haven't worked out how to do it in a community friendly fashion yet.. packages do win us lots of convenience for end users.
07:54 huginn ashimema: The operation succeeded.
07:55 ashimema @later tell dcook.. ptfs-e, bywater and biblibre all support Joubu equally I believe.. the hope was that others would come on board but that's never happened :(.. we don't pay enough between us to match 5 days full time pay.. I think.
07:55 huginn ashimema: The operation succeeded.
07:56 ashimema @later tell tcohen.. did the cpan deps build get the chop on Jenkins.. I thought it was a helpful one to run monthly to see if recent cpan module versions would break Koha and give us a heads up on what we may need to fix around the corner.
07:56 huginn ashimema: The operation succeeded.
07:57 ashimema @later tell tuxayo.. I'd be interested to know if you've thought about going after grants as apposed to trying to get funded by vendors and libraries themselves.. I've often thought we should do more of that as a community.
07:57 huginn ashimema: The operation succeeded.
07:58 ashimema @later tell dcook.. systemd unit files for koha scripts sound great and have been on my list of interest but no time for a while now... also interested in looking at using systemd units as an alternative to at least some of our cron jobs
07:58 huginn ashimema: The operation succeeded.
07:58 ashimema lots of catching up this morning.. lol
07:58 poor huginn
08:00 `Optionally you can add CPAN=1 to pull the latest versions of perl dependancies directly from cpan`

09:04 TimothyAlexis joined #koha
09:16 TimothyAlexis Hello, I'm looking at adding New Patron (memberentry.pl). When saving the record while there are missing, required details, the page will automatically scroll down.
09:17 Here is an example: http://koha.adminkuhn.ch:8080/[…]dd&categorycode=K
09:17 login/password = demo/demo
09:18 Joubu yes, what's the question? :)
09:18 TimothyAlexis Fill in Surname and click Save to see that it scrolls down for "Card Number" to be just outside of view.
09:20 Joubu does it happen even when the warning on cardnumber is not there?
09:20 TimothyAlexis What do you mean?
09:20 Joubu "AutoMemberNum is set to enabled, but cardnumber is marked as mandatory in BorrowerMandatoryField: auto calc has been disabled. "
09:21 this warning does not appear usually, unless you have a config issue
09:22 TimothyAlexis Where are you seeing htat? :D
09:22 that*
09:22 Oh I see
09:22 Joubu under the cardnumber input
09:22 TimothyAlexis: the problem is that language bar
09:23 locally I don't get the warning, and no language selection bar
09:23 and so I see it
09:23 well, it is at the very bottom, not super convenient, but at least it is visible
09:24 TimothyAlexis Yeah I think it should scroll down so that the error is clearly in view.
09:25 When I'm looking at the code this seems to be the standard in jQuery though.
09:25 Joubu https://jqueryvalidation.org/validate/
09:25 search for focusInvalid
09:25 wahanui joined #koha
09:25 Joubu I don't see it in our code
09:26 koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/js/members.js
09:26 328     $("#entryform").validate({
09:26 but maybe there is another parameter in the doc
09:26 or I am sure you will find something on stackoverflow :)
09:26 hope that give you some tracks to investigate
09:27 TimothyAlexis Well
09:27 Hmm
09:27 inlibro joined #koha
09:27 TimothyAlexis am I correct in the conclusion that this behavior is part of jQuery?
09:28 Joubu it's the jQuery "validate" plugin, yes
09:28 TimothyAlexis So if I want to change this, it needs to be modified in there...
09:29 Joubu I see 2 possible solutions: 1. teach it that there is a bar at the bottom, or 2. focus on the mandatory fields but position it at the top of the screen
09:31 maybe https://jqueryvalidation.org/v[…]e/#errorplacement
09:32 TimothyAlexis Could I add this customization to the .pl file to override the default valdation?
09:33 to the .tt file, sorry...
09:34 I'll try it ;) Thank you Joubu
09:44 Joubu TimothyAlexis: in the .js file

10:44 oleonard Hi #koha
10:47 khall_ joined #koha
11:13 khall joined #koha
11:23 TimothyAlexis What I've come to is that there is an invalidHandler
11:23 Thank you Joubo for showing it happens in members.js
11:23 I found the $("#entryform").validate({ there
11:27 I got it working in JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/213sg845/
11:27 But it won't happen in Koha :/
11:27 inlibro joined #koha
11:33 khall_ joined #koha
11:35 oleonard TimothyAlexis: Your goal is to ensure that the focused invalid field isn't hidden by the floating toolbar?
11:36 TimothyAlexis oleonard: Well I want it to scroll more too.
11:36 oleonard More?
11:36 TimothyAlexis Currently it scrolls so that the field is just visible at the bottom.
11:36 Which is why it's hidden by the floating toolbar.
11:38 With scrollTop: $(validator.errorList[0].element).offset().top + 50 the view can scroll another 50 pixels
11:39 oleonard Your JSFiddle code works well for me in members.js if I change "top - 20" to "top - 60"
11:42 TimothyAlexis hmm
11:42 Can you paste it? Maybe I have done some minor thing which I will be able to see.
11:43 oleonard Sure
11:44 pastebot "oleonard" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "modified members.js" (394 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/21717
11:47 TimothyAlexis hmm this is very strange
11:49 AndrewFH joined #koha
11:51 TimothyAlexis *scratches head*
11:51 I'm gonna go for a walk.
11:52 For me it simply does the same thing as before :/
11:53 oleonard TimothyAlexis are you sure it's not a browser cacheing issue?
11:54 TimothyAlexis I thought about it...
11:57 I tried clearing the cache and website data and it's the same.
11:58 Even when I only add the focusInvalid: false,
11:58 oleonard What exactly are you seeing. What's going wrong?
12:00 TimothyAlexis This is what my first 3 lines are for that function
12:00 $("#entryform").validate({
12:00 focusInvalid: false,
12:00 rules: {
12:00 I have removed the invalidHandler function
12:01 So I'm expecting it to not focus
12:01 When I fill out the form and leave a Required field which is outside of view empty, it scrolls to that one.
12:01 Which is very surprising to me.
12:02 oleonard You're expecting it not to scroll?
12:03 TimothyAlexis Exactly
12:03 Like here: http://jsfiddle.net/213sg845/2/
12:05 oleonard I don't understand what you're trying to accomplish.
12:11 TimothyAlexis joined #koha
12:11 TimothyAlexis The goal I'm trying to reach in this instance is to scroll so that the field which has an error is clearly shown on screen. Preferrably at the Golden Section which is about 40% from the top.
12:12 The problem is more evident in the actual page we have, because we have multiple required fields.
12:13 When the e-mail is not filled out for example, it scrolls so that it looks like the borrowernumber is what needs to be corrected, which becomes very puzzling.
12:14 oleonard When you tested the members.js file I pasted what aspect of the process didn't work?
12:15 TimothyAlexis The exact same behavior as before happens.
12:16 I'm sorry, it would be easier if I could show you the actual page but it is prevented by a firewall which I am unable to access.
12:17 It seems like changes I make in members.js don't follow through.
12:19 Joubu TimothyAlexis: open a bug report and attach the patch you are testing
12:19 we will try it and see if it works as it should or not
12:22 TimothyAlexis I'm gonna go for a walk, I need a pause from this. There are very few things that get to me like when I'm doing something ridiculously simple and it doesn't work. Whenever that happens there's usually something I'm missing.
12:22 I'm sorry for having taken up your time with this.
12:23 Joubu it happens to all of us, daily :)
12:24 TimothyAlexis Thank you Joubu.

13:22 Ok no that's standard... so where is this validated then? :/
13:23 I'm done for today. Perhaps I will solve this tomorrow. Thank you guys for taking your time to try and help get this sorted.
13:23 tuxayo Joubu: Now that the release has passed I should work on the tests.
13:23 Thanks for reminder, I was focusing on addressing only notifications from other bugs but I should not only do that.

13:41 Joubu coming from 3.01.00.044, whaou it's a dinosaur!
13:42 oleonard Yeah I tend to forget about it too because I always have it turned off
13:44 cait1 i believe the print icon is a more recent addition von cbrannon
13:46 Joubu I am really sad to learn we have sysprefs to display icons
13:50 cait1 it's about the functionality too
13:51 wizzyrea ^ what she said
13:51 it turns off the functionality
13:51 Joubu I should have added a smiley ;)
13:52 wizzyrea haha
13:52 Joubu I am not literally crying
13:53 cait1 good to know :)
13:54 Joubu should not we remove the pref and have the icon displayed by default?
13:55 lukeG joined #koha
13:59 oleonard Some libraries want it, some don't... thus a pref
14:02 Joubu yes maybe it's too much in the center of the screen to enable by default.
14:02 wizzyrea are you going on a holy quest to eliminate sysprefs?
14:04 Joubu nope, but I either completely forgot the existence of this pref, or never heard about it. I am destabilise to know I have spent so many time without being aware of its existence.

14:54 Michael_A Hi everyone, quick question: I'm a new administrator and I'm trying to figure out where secondary and tertiary ("emailpro" and "B_email") are configured in Koha.
14:54 We have several accounts that have these fields, but they are no longer accessible through the "Edit" function on a patron's account
14:57 tuxayo Michael_A: hi, maybe the  BorrowerUnwantedField system preference contains them?
14:57 cait1 Michael_A: check your system preference borrowersunwanted
14:57 yes that
14:57 they are probably hidden from display
15:00 Michael_A Bingo, thanks!
15:00 Is there a way to clear these out in a batch, or would they need to be displayed, cleared out individually, and then hidden again?
15:01 cait1 these fields are not available in the batch patron edit i think, so sql would be easiest
15:01 or display... clean and hide
15:06 Michael_A Got it. Thanks!

19:08 #topic Review of action points
19:08 Topic for #koha is now Review of action points (Meeting topic: Documentation IRC meeting 4 June 2020)
19:09 davidnind From what I can see (only looked briefly)...
19:09 caroline has been busy adding tasks to Taiga.io
19:09 caroline++
19:09 caroline yes I went through the last version of the release notes and added enhancements and new features to taiga
19:10 it's a bit overwhelming tbh
19:10 the devs are doing so much! (which is good!)
19:10 davidnind yeah, it's always where do we start!
19:11 khall_ joined #koha
19:11 caroline Anyway, now that we're a whole bunch, feel free to go and pick something to do in https://tree.taiga.io/project/[…]hadocs-1805/epics
19:11 #link https://tree.taiga.io/project/[…]hadocs-1805/epics
19:11 davidnind the manual has been updated for 20.11 (thanks Chris!) - so master is now 20.11
19:11 caroline #info check taiga for things to add to the manual
19:12 davidnind Does everyone have an account on Taiga.io? If not we should add you.
19:12 kellym I was unable to assign myself something in taiga
19:13 I have a login and can see tasks, but can’t assign myself.
19:13 caroline I don't see you in the "Team" section, maybe that's why
19:13 wizzycray joined #koha
19:14 kellym My assumption is that either I don’t have the correct permissions?  or I am doing it wrong, but if I choose a module and click on a subtask where it says unassigned, it does nothing.
19:14 DonnaB I don't think I have an account
19:14 magnuse joined #koha
19:15 davidnind #action add kellym and DonnaB to Taiga.io
19:15 caroline I can't remember how to add someone to the team -_-;;
19:15 kellym Also, is there someway that I can find out what I did wrong in my last submission? Who do I go to for this?  I was adding something, got a denied alert and then I am not sure my next steps
19:16 caroline Can you send me or davidnind a screenshot?
19:16 davidnind was that for a merge request?
19:17 kellym I emailed you caroline a few weeks ago, but hadn’t heard back. But I can definitely do that again!
19:18 caroline I'm so sorry! Sometimes I read emails and then forget about responding... Definitely email back if I don't respond
19:18 davidnind I can have a look after the meeting and try and sort things out, if that would suit?
19:18 kellym Cool - and no worries, I know things are busy!
19:19 davidnind I think I jumped ahead in the agenda to what's been done so far...
19:19 so we may as well do that now and then go back..
19:19 koha-jenkins Project Koha_Master_D9_MDB_Latest build #318: NOW UNSTABLE in 5 hr 19 min: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]9_MDB_Latest/318/
19:20 davidnind actually (sorry my chairing isn't that great today!), will stay with action points
19:21 caroline davidnind want to talk about themes?
19:21 #link https://gitlab.com/koha-commun[…]14#note_355587232
19:21 #link https://davidnind.gitlab.io/test-themes/
19:22 davidnind under project updates
19:22 caroline right sorry, I thought we were in projects...
19:22 davidnind #topic Project updates
19:22 Topic for #koha is now Project updates (Meeting topic: Documentation IRC meeting 4 June 2020)
19:22 davidnind I have been experimenting with themes - see issue and link above
19:23 If anyone has nay comments, that would be great
19:23 jzairo I like this theme https://davidnind.gitlab.io/test-themes/p-green/
19:23 I like how the headings stand out
19:23 screenshots look clear
19:23 davidnind I was trying to aim for keeping it simple and clean, with a bit of enhancement
19:24 jzairo I really like it, simple and clean
19:24 davidnind thanks jzairo!
19:24 jzairo davidnind++
19:24 ashimema davidnind++
19:24 Looks nice.
19:24 Marie-Luce davidnind++
19:24 kellym I like that the page of contents  stays!
19:25 davidnind++
19:25 davidnind I would like to change the landing page so that is something like https://docs.python.org/3/ - provides for links to tutorials and specific guides
19:25 caroline davidnind++
19:25 DonnaB I like that one too, my only concern is the color -
19:26 caroline DonnaB how do you mean?
19:26 DonnaB https://davidnind.gitlab.io/test-themes/p-green/ can the color be something other than green? for accessbility purposes
19:26 I've been told that green is bad for folks with color blindness
19:27 davidnind the colours can be changed
19:27 caroline I liked the green b/c Koha is green, but if it's not accessible, then it's not great
19:27 DonnaB we just need to have brendan take a look and let us know if it works for him :-)
19:28 davidnind originally I think the idea was to match the Koha theme as much as possible
19:29 how do we decide on what theme to use? I quite like the RTD theme as well...
19:29 caroline bag around?
19:29 kellym maybe the green could be more of an accent color than a main color, so if someone can’t see it well, they are not missing the content of what the green is on.
19:29 inlibro joined #koha
19:29 caroline I would veto this one https://davidnind.gitlab.io/te[…]xbootstrap4theme/
19:29 just because the sidebar is behaving weird
19:30 davidnind me too - I was quite keen initially to have a bootstrap theme, but I think the one there would need a bot of work
19:30 kellym I like the side bar of that one!
19:30 caroline My faverite is this onw https://davidnind.gitlab.io/te[…]sphinx-rtd-theme/
19:30 davidnind then there were three!
19:31 Marie-Luce me too, I like the highlight in the content sidebar of the sphinx-rtd-theme
19:32 caroline are we enough to vote, do you think?
19:32 davidnind So down to the RTD and PShinxTheme (with colour changes and customisations) (I didn't do any tweaking of the theme settings)
19:32 DonnaB I say yes!
19:32 kellym I like that one too, we had something like that before I believe
19:33 caroline the translated manuals have this theme https://translate.koha-communi[…]A/html/index.html
19:33 davidnind The RTD theme is used on th etranslation site
19:33 DonnaB just noticed the green one doesn't have the side bar, so I would switch my vote to RTD
19:34 davidnind trying to find how to vote commands.. I don't think we've ever voted on anything before!
19:34 kellym yes I like the translation one best
19:34 davidnind all the themes can be customised to some extent..
19:35 tuxayo davidnind: example: http://irc.koha-community.org/[…]0-06-03#i_2254844
19:36 davidnind #startvote Which theme should be change to? rtd,phtyon,pshinx
19:36 huginn Begin voting on: Which theme should be change to? Valid vote options are rtd, phtyon, pshinx.
19:36 Vote using '#vote OPTION'. Only your last vote counts.
19:36 DonnaB #vote rtd
19:37 caroline #vote rtd
19:37 davidnind #vote rtd
19:37 jzairo #vote rtd
19:37 Marie-Luce #vote rtd
19:37 davidnind (although I like the phython one as well)
19:38 jzairo rtd has the best features
19:38 davidnind #endvote
19:38 huginn Voted on "Which theme should be change to?" Results are
19:38 rtd (5): jzairo, davidnind, caroline, DonnaB, Marie-Luce
19:39 davidnind I'll work on this further and make the change for master (which is now 20.11)
19:39 tuxayo davidnind++
19:39 DonnaB excellent! thanks david!
19:39 kellym #vote rtd
19:39 caroline davidnind++
19:39 Marie-Luce nice work!
19:39 kellym sorry got distracted!
19:39 davidnind++
19:40 will this change how documentation is done/process?
19:40 Marie-Luce davidind++
19:40 davidnind # davidnind to update the theme for master to sphinx-rtd-theme
19:40 caroline you forgot action
19:40 davidnind no change to how the documentation is done at this stage
19:40 #action davidnind to update the theme for master to sphinx-rtd-theme
19:41 it wasn't deliberate...:)
19:41 ashimema Awesome
19:41 * ashimema is lurking
19:41 caroline haha I know!
19:41 davidnind I have no updates for my other projects... https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]ists_and_projects
19:42 caroline Me either... actually I will remove my name from reviewing acquisitions
19:42 davidnind I know work is being done on the wiki updgrade, so I think that is getting closer
19:42 caroline I've been working on the index
19:42 I have like less than 10 terms, but still...
19:43 Marie-Luce sorry...I was not able to check the documentation bugs
19:43 davidnind got to start somewhere...
19:44 caroline you'd think with libraries closed we'd have less work, but it doesn't work like that haha!
19:45 davidnind Should we add projects as GitLab issues (where they are not content related) -  I find it relatively easier to keep track of things on GitLab
19:45 caroline sure I donm't mind either way
19:45 with gitlab at least we get notifications :)
19:47 davidnind #info Add projects (non-content related) as issues in GitLab (preference up to person project assigned to)
19:48 #topic What's been done so far
19:48 Topic for #koha is now What's been done so far (Meeting topic: Documentation IRC meeting 4 June 2020)
19:48 davidnind I think we have done some of this agenda item already
19:48 Anything else to add?
19:49 caroline I don't know about you, but I feel like action points, projects and what's been done is kind of the same thing?
19:49 davidnind Should we merge for future agendas?
19:50 jzairo left #koha
19:50 caroline I feel like yeah, what about you?
19:50 Marie-Luce I will start checking those documentation bugs
19:51 davidnind That would be fine with me
19:51 Marie-Luce++
19:51 tuxayo-read-only joined #koha
19:51 davidnind Apart from the latest merge request, everything that has come through has been merged
19:52 #topic Content development guidelines
19:52 Topic for #koha is now Content development guidelines (Meeting topic: Documentation IRC meeting 4 June 2020)
19:52 caroline thanks davidnind++ for merging
19:52 davidnind no problem!
19:53 shall we defer my point about using contractions, as I'm conscious we've nearly been going for an hour!
19:54 caroline also maybe wait for when cait is there, more translation opinions
19:55 davidnind okay, we'll defer
19:55 For priorities, have you got anything to add caroline?
19:55 Pick something and work on it - ideally new system preferences and features
19:55 caroline yup that's pretty much it!
19:56 davidnind :)
19:56 caroline I don't think there's much that has been pushed for 20.11, so work on 20.05
19:56 there's a lot to do
19:56 davidnind yes, very overwhelming!
19:57 I'm conscious that we have several new people on the team
19:58 There was a great session with jzairo via koha-US in May
19:58 Marie-Luce I'm may need some coaching
19:58 davidnind is there any interest in having hands on sessions, via Zoom or Jitsi?
19:59 caroline good idea!
19:59 davidnind I'm happy to do something, even if it is a Q&A sessions - like, how do I do XYZ, basic git workflow commands, etc.
19:59 Marie-Luce that would be awesome
19:59 caroline davidnind++
19:59 davidnind It can be a bit daunting figuring things out until you have a bit of a workflow going
20:00 would be pretty informal, and I can't promise I have all the answers
20:00 Marie-Luce any tips would be greatly appreciated
20:00 DonnaB I'd be happy to set up a Zoom if that would work
20:01 davidnind #action davidnind to organise a 'drop in session(s)' on how to contribute to the documentation
20:01 thanks DonnaB
20:02 does around this time suit, maybe on the equivalent of everyone's Friday's for maybe 1/2 an hour over the next 2-3 weeks?
20:03 caroline isn't our friday afternoon your saturday morning?
20:03 Are you ok with that?
20:03 andreashm joined #koha
20:03 davidnind I'm okay with that
20:04 DonnaB so the first one would be what date/time in UTC?
20:06 davidnind How about next Friday 12 June 2020, 19:00 UTC? Will try Jitsi for the first one, can move to Zoom if we have problems.
20:07 DonnaB sounds good to me!
20:07 davidnind will send something to the mailing list, and happy to do any one-on-one sessions
20:07 I can always talk to myself!:-D
20:07 #topic Next meeting
20:07 Topic for #koha is now Next meeting (Meeting topic: Documentation IRC meeting 4 June 2020)

20:10 caroline davidnind++ thanks for chairing!
20:10 davidnind Thanks everyone, sorry it dragged on a bit!
20:10 DonnaB thanks all!
20:10 tuxayo > happy to do any one-on-one sessions
20:10 These are the kind of things I could help also.
20:10 Not documentation but for stuff like setting up a KohaDevBox, using sandboxes, how to signoff patches.
20:10 And for pair-signing off for patches that are too technical (or just too scary to take alone!)
20:11 Marie-Luce davidnind++ thanks david
20:11 tuxayo Just hook me up on IRC, happy to help and to learn library stuff also!
20:11 davidnind++
20:11 davidnind everything eventually comes back to documentation...
20:12 thanks DonnaB
20:13 tuxayo BTW, what's the place to contact the documentation team between two meeting?
20:13 Like there the mailing list koha-devel to bring development topic between meetings.
20:14 cait there is koha-docs, bu tit doesn't appear to be used much :)
20:14 * cait waves and apologizes for missing the meeting
20:15 davidnind racking my brain, I think you just add their email address and they will get an invite if they don't have a Taiga.io account
20:16 I think you just add their email address, they will then get an invite if they don't have a Taiga.io account.
20:17 caroline ok I will try that
20:17 davidnind sorry about the above ... please ignore!
20:17 caroline I will ignore just 1 line :)
20:17 davidnind any I'm not sure what has happened to my spelling today!
20:17 :)
20:19 with more people, maybe the docs list will get a bit more use... otherwise posting to the general or developer list may work just as well
20:20 caroline I think it worked kellym and DonnaB are now team members :)
20:20 DonnaB yup! I just got an email and am now a product owner.  So fancy!!!
20:20 davidnind caroline++
20:21 was just trying to find email addresses...
20:23 caroline bywater addresses are pretty simple
20:24 davidnind I think they need to be added on GitLab as well as developers, otherwise they can't comment on issues
20:24 tuxayo Thanks davidnind and cait, it's for documenting the system requirements about the OS and database.
20:24 I don't want to left someone out that would like to have a word in this.

21:16 Ok! (can't assign issues but I'll mention them, that will do)
21:17 ashimema Did you use an alias
21:18 The aliases dear by work nicely with additional exports on the line I believe.. I got caught by that at some point.

23:56 huginn dcook: The operation succeeded.
23:56 dcook @later tell ashimema I'm happy to do some work on the systemd side of things. I find I end up doing it anyway just out of convenience. You can see one experimental I did at Bug 22417.
