Write good commit messages
by Jonathan Druart 31 Jan '20

31 Jan '20

Hi devs, This is a gently reminder about the bug report titles and commit messages. At the last dev meeting we discussed if we should or not reinforce, at QA and RM step, the coding codeline about how commit messages are written. We voted yes :) Can you please read again the following wiki page:https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Commit_messages And especially the "examples" section: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Commit_messages#Examples The main point is: the bug report title must describe what the bug is, while the commit title must describe what the patch does, so most of the time you must not copy the bug report title to the commit title. Previous message to the list: https://lists.koha-community.org/pipermail/koha-devel/2017-August/043991.ht… Cheers, Jonathan

Global Bug Squashing Day - February 14th 2020
by Renvoize, Martin 30 Jan '20

30 Jan '20

Hi All, At the last Koha Developers Meeting, it was proposed that we bring back regular Global Bug Squashing Day events to help keep the bug queue moving along and encourage more people to get involved. As such, we are arranging such a day to take place on the 14th of February. We hope to see some new names added to the list of contributors: Testing, Signoff, Quality Assurance, Patch Writing, Documentation additions all count, and there will be friendly developers available to help throughout the day on IRC <https://koha-community.org/get-involved/irc/>! If you have always wanted to get involved now is a good time, so spin up a devbox, try out a sandbox, or just visit us in IRC and ask everything you wanted to know about Koha and we will help as best as we can. Please see https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/2020-02-14_Global_bug_squashing_day for more information. *Martin Renvoize* <https://www.ptfs-europe.com> Development Team Manager Community Release Manager (19.11, 20.05) *Phone:* +44 (0) 1483 378728 *Mobile:* +44 (0) 7725 985 636 *Email:* martin.renvoize(a)ptfs-europe.com *Fax:* +44 (0) 800 756 6384 www.ptfs-europe.com Registered in the United Kingdom No. 06416372 VAT Reg No. 925 7211 30 The information contained in this email message may be privileged, confidential and protected from disclosure.

Signoff request for bug 21190 [GDPR logging]
by Marcel de Rooy 30 Jan '20

30 Jan '20

Hi, See bug 21190. https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=21190 GDPR: Log successful/unsuccessful login attempts [part 1] Some people asked for it. I wrote something. I do not really need it myself. I waited three months, but to no avail. This is my last resort ;) If you are interested in such changes, please test and signoff. If no one is, I will not keep waiting but just happily close the report. Thanks, Marcel

External Independent Security Audits of Koha
by dcook＠prosentient.com.au 28 Jan '20

28 Jan '20

Hi all, Sending this first to the dev list, and might send to the general list depending on responses. Has anyone in the Koha community commissioned an external independent security audit of Koha? I know people do their own pen testing and security audits, but has anyone paid for an external independent firm to certify Koha? Apologies for the vagueness. I'm asking this question on behalf of someone else. I don't think it's a source code audit (like has been done for open source encryption software like TrueCrypt). Rather, I think it's an audit of an implemented Koha. Of course, any audit of an implementation would be implementation specific, so I'm not quite sure of the intentions behind the original question, but there you have it.

hackfest 2020 in Marseille, registrations are open !
by Paul Poulain 27 Jan '20

27 Jan '20

Hello everyone, almost everything is in the title : you can register for the hackfest by sending me an email. As announced previously, it will take place in BibLibre office, Marseille, France, March 23-27 Some explanations for those who need them: * the hackfest is NOT a developer week. it's a week for anyone willing to contribute to Koha, whatever the kind of contribution (testing, documenting, ...) * the hackfest is free of charge (but you'll have to deal with your traveling costs, of course) * you can come for 5 days, or less. Don't come for 1 day, it's useless. coming for 2 days is very frustrating. Coming for 3 to 5 days is perfect ! * 40-45 ppl fit in our office. If we're more than this, we'll have to book an additional room [thanks to the company just next door] So register as soon as possible * there's no schedule, everyone comes with it's own ideas/goals/expectations * that's not a training session * if you need an official invitation, just ask by email Hoping to see you next month !!! -- Paul Poulain, Associé-gérant / co-owner BibLibre, Services en logiciels libres pour les bibliothèques BibLibre, Open Source software and services for libraries

Koha plugin MRPP
by Fridolin SOMERS 22 Jan '20

22 Jan '20

Hi, I'd like to present a small plugin of my own : https://github.com/biblibre/koha-plugin-mrpp A library asked for this to be able to fastly add a lot of records into a list. Full Javascript so its neatly a hack \o/. Can be a performance killer that's why it's only for staff interface. Best regards, -- Fridolin SOMERS <fridolin.somers(a)biblibre.com> BibLibre, France - software and system maintainer

Missing optional Net::Z3950::SimpleServer dependency causes ~/koha prove t to fail
by dcook＠prosentient.com.au 21 Jan '20

21 Jan '20

Technically, Net::Z3950::SimpleServer is an optional dependency, so the test suite probably shouldn't fail if it's not installed? I'll just look at installing it, so it shouldn't be a big drama, but just wondering what people think about this.

Would this be interesting too for containerization? Make it possible to run Koha in Docker without cap-add's ?
