Greetings, Thank you to those helped get Bug 14385 signed off. I would love it to be QA’d. But the reason for this email is that I would really like Bug 16690 and the associated bug 17237 too. The whole ‘%’ logic is a mess, and this really simplifies it, and makes it friendlier for when a Remote DB is used. GPML, Mark Tompsett

ppl/company providing dashboard/schema/irc/mana-kb/hea/paste servers, please read this !
by Paul Poulain 16 Sep '18

16 Sep '18

Hello koha-devel, The page https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Website_Administration list all the servers and resources that are managed by the koha-community, with some important informations. There are some servers missing : dashboard, schema, irc, mana-kb, hea and paste. I've added a header for them. If you're managing/hosting one of those services, could you please update the relevant paragraph to have valid information ! PS: I know that BibLibre is responsible for some of them, I'll complete the information, of course ;) -- Paul Poulain, Associé-gérant / co-owner BibLibre, Services en logiciels libres pour les bibliothèques BibLibre, Open Source software and services for libraries

Hi Just for the record... Yesterday I wrote: > When using Koha 16.05 we have set up a script "auth_divibib.pl" to > authenticate against Divibib (a German company that does about the > same as Overdrive).

Reason of the problem was the newly introduced class "Koha::Patrons" about which I didn't know. However I was able to use the new class methods instead of the old ones. I especially liked the new class methods "is_debarred", "is_expired" and "get _age". There was only one problem with the documentation that should probably be corrected: https://perldoc.koha-community.org/Koha/Patron.html actually shows the content of "Koha::Patrons" (with "s" at the end) even though the document itself says the class is named "Koha::Patron". So the file name "Patron.html" and the NAME "Koha::Patron" in the document should probably be corrected. while https://perldoc.koha-community.org/Koha/Patrons.html actually shows the content of another class named "Koha::Patron" (without "s" at the end). So the file name "Patrons.html" should probably be corrected. Both classes do contain a method named "guarantor", the rest is different.
