So. It's happy holiday time of year - I propose that we all get together on 22/23 December in the Koha IRC channel, maybe setup some Hangouts (or other video link) and have a jolly good time at this jolly good time of year. What do you think? lrea(a)nekls.org

Hackfest in Europe 2012 in march !
by Paul Poulain 08 Dec '11

08 Dec '11

Hello world, Last year, BibLibre has hosted a week of hackfest, where a lot of european people came to hack Koha. It was a very good week, so we decided to host a new one next year ! Last year, it was close to the release, maybe a little bit too close. So, for 2012 edition, it will be earlier. Last year, we had people coming from Germany, United Kingdom, Spain, Norway. So, for 2012 edition, we hope to have more countries coming. We will warmly welcome ppl from Italy, Netherland, Croatia ! (If you want to come from NZ, US, AUS, IN, or anywhere in the world you're welcomed too, but it may be more expensive...) So, ask your boss, book your flight/train, and join us *** from monday, march 19th to friday, march 23 *** As last year: * the day start by 5-10 minuts meeting to assign tasks/goals. We work in groups of 2-3 dedicated to a given task = signing-off patches, testing, translating, fixing bugs, developing features,... * we work hard, and usually have a lot of things to eat or drink * the lunch is organised by BibLibre (one day pizza, one day sushi, one day, we have vegies at BibLibre so you'll be welcomed ;-) ), we share the fee (10€/lunch last year) * We're close to the center of Marseille, there are many hotels, from very cheap to very expensive ! If you plan to come, drop a mail to kim.nguyen -at- biblibre.com ! Disclaimer: this week is made for developers, it's not the place where you can discover Koha. For this, you'll have to wait a little bit, and go to the KohaCon11, in Edinburg, in June ! -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08

on Bug 6802
by Tomas Cohen Arazi 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Hi, I've just heard of bug 6802, we are having some issues with that as it is holding a University from finishing its Koha official deployment. I'm willing to work on that, and would like to ask if something like this would be a good solution: somehow wrapping the "saveitem" block within if (C4::Context->preference("IndependantBranches")) { my $userenv = C4::Context->userenv(); unless (($userenv->{'flags'} == 1) or ($userenv->{'branch'} eq $item->{'homebranch'})) { # ERROR HANDLING CODE HERE } } might or not work. Hope we start a good discussion on this... Regards To+
