from ISIS to Koha
by paul POULAIN 13 Oct '03

13 Oct '03

Hi, I've a (future ?) customer that want to switch from winISIS to Koha. He sends me lot of exports, but none of them work with classic dumpmarc.pl script of Koha (refused by MARC::Record) Does anyone here know how to setup winISIS export options to get a valid iso2709 file ?

xml
by Benedykt 06 Oct '03

06 Oct '03

Hi, I just wanted to ask whether any discussion was held on using xml for developing koha? www.w3.org says it is good to separate the data from the way it looks (data from html). Do you think that future direction of koha development could benefit from it (like language translations)? Benedict

z3950 script installation bugs
by MJ Ray 06 Oct '03

06 Oct '03

I think I fixed http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39 in this morning's CVS commit. I have made the installer create a z3950-daemon-options file for the .sh scripts, removing the hardcoded /home/paul settings. The processz3950queue script uses C4::Context to get the apache user now. I'd welcome feedback on these changes and whether they work for you. -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and possibly not of any group I know. http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ gopher://g.towers.org.uk/ slef(a)jabber.at Creative copyleft computing services via http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ PM 8/9 Oct: visit me @ AFFS on .ORG stand, at www.linuxexpo.org.uk

Location of includes
by MJ Ray 05 Oct '03

05 Oct '03

Dear all, Should the includes dir really be under the currently selected template, or is the one from intranet-tmpl/defaults/en always used? If the former, can it be calculated inside C4::Output, as updating koha.conf with each template change seems odd? If the latter, I'll fix the installer to point there, but should includes be moved elsewhere? -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and possibly not of any group I know. http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ gopher://g.towers.org.uk/ slef(a)jabber.at Creative copyleft computing services via http://www.ttllp.co.uk/

Koha technical documentation
by Tom Madron 05 Oct '03

05 Oct '03

Is there any technical documentation available for the direction Koha is taking? Particularly I would like to find some description of the way in which the database is being reorganized for 2.0.0. If such documentation is available, where might I find it? I've searched SourceForge to no avail.
