by Pat Eyler 27 Mar '03

27 Mar '03

Ingrid Lacis, the new QA/Testing manager, and I would like to invite everyone with an interest in the QA and testing process to attend a special QA/Testing IRC meeting. We would like to discuss the current user-interface usability of Koha, and work with the 2.0 team to create bug reports/enahancement requests in bugzilla for the issues that we agree need to be addressed. The meeting will be held 1 Apr 2003 at 1200 PST (GMT-7), and should run for an hour or two. We'll talk on #koha at irc.katipo.co. thanks, -pate Pat Eyler Kaitiaki/manager migrant Linux sys admin the Koha project ruby, shell, and perl geek http://www.koha.org http://pate.eylerfamily.org

RE: [Koha-devel] [Bug 169] dateformat not used anywhere
by Anthony Youngman 26 Mar '03

26 Mar '03

Just a minor nit. I've never actually come across dd/mm/yy called metric before. I have heard it referred to as "military" because apparently the US military use it, and I have heard it called European (that's what Pick calls it) because it's used in every European country I know of apart from that Scandinavian one I can't remember that uses ISO. And I would think "metric" definitely is the wrong name for it, because that is generally taken to mean "use a scale of 10 for measurement", which dates certainly don't!
