--- Comment #27 from Tomás Cohen Arazi <tomascohen at gmail.com> ---
I find the idea really interesting. Have a few questions, though:
- Can we do it in Koha::Item::Bundle(s) instead? Most of the C4::Items CRUD
stuffs have been moved to Koha::Item(s) and we have a bunch of handy tools
there.
- Bundles would probably end-up being some kind of meta-item types. I don't see
anything circ-related (for setting circulation rules on bundles). So, is it
going to calculate the circ/hold rules based on one of the items? which? I
would go the meta-item type way to simplify things.
- Bug 24857 is introducing the concept of volumes at biblio level. Which
sort-of have -implicitly- a similar meta-itype: in that case you place a hold
on 'any copy of DVD 2 for Lord of the Rings'. It would be interesting to think
how this dev will interact with that one: we could want to place a hold on the
three LOTR movies (as a bundle), which would mean instead of a specific item,
the bundle could include volume members instead.
- How does checkout work for bundles? You check one item out, it identifies
itself as part of a bundle, and checks all out?
