ILSDI AuthenticatePatron
by Fitzpatrick, Christopher 27 Feb '13

27 Feb '13

Hi everyone, I've just started working on some "connector" code to extend some functionality of our Koha instance by interacting with another web app we use. I'm wanting to authenticate users to their Koha accounts and it seems like using the ILSDI api would be the easiest way, since it would it would allow me to not have to make a direct DB connection. However, looking at the AuthenticatePatron action, I'm not too comfortable passing username and password simply as clear text GET parameters, so I am trying to come up with some ways to avoid this, as it's not very secure. Limiting IP access to the ilsdi.pl probably does not complete resolve this issue, since the username and password will still be captured in the http logs. I am curious what are some of the security measures others are using when using this api? Thanks for any help! Very much appreciated...best, chris fitzpatrick

My changing role...
by Ruth Bavousett 25 Feb '13

25 Feb '13

To my friends in the Koha community, I have accepted a position outside the library community, and will be leaving ByWater Solutions as of March 8. It has been an incredible almost-five years for me, working on Koha, and getting to meet so many of you virtually and in-person. I say without reservation that some of my best friends on the planet are Koha people, some of whom I have never met in person. I will continue to serve as Translation Manager for the rest of the 3.12 release cycle; I would like to stay involved in Koha after that, so once I see what my workload will look like, I'll decide whether to run for another term. I'll be switching my emails for the lists over to my personal account soon, but if you need me for translation matters, email to druthb(a)gmail.com will be your best bet, going forward. *D Ruth Bavousett* Lead Migration Specialist ByWater Solutions Support and Consulting for Open Source Software Headquarters: Santa Barbara, CA Office: Lawrence, KS Phone/Fax (888)900-8944 http://bywatersolutions.com ruth(a)bywatersolutions.com

My role as QAA
by Travis Elliott Davis 25 Feb '13

25 Feb '13

Good morning. I recently accepted a job at a local software company, and starting on March 18 I will no longer be working full-time on Koha. I would like to complete my term as QAA, but I may not have as much time to devote to the project and I wanted to make sure there were no objections from the larger Koha community. It has been a pleasure working on Koha, and I look forward to staying in touch for a long to come even if my job prevents me from participating after May. Elliott Davis

by samuel desseaux 25 Feb '13

hi, When i create a record, biblio.datecreated and biblio.timestamp (099$c 099$d) are well created in the database but not displayed in the marc file. All seems to be ok but we have to add manually the date. I think it's a question of xsl but, in this case, which file can i modify? Best regards, samuel
