Integration of BibLibre features for 3.2
by paul POULAIN 31 Aug '09

31 Aug '09

Hi Galen, I was wondering where we are going with 3.2 integration : - i've submitted 79 patches for new_acq some months ago. What's the status of those patches ? We have made some/many improvements, that have not be submitted anywhere yet (it's on our local repo). I would be very happy to submit them, but don't know where to put them yet. - the other features are on http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=shortlog;h=biblibre-integra… There are a lot of patches all around, and I was wondering how/when they are supposed to reach 3.2 repository. I think delaying too much integration of patches results in slowing the release. BibLibre faces a lot of added work to deal with multiple repository (we have one for new_acq, one for other features -sponsored by Aix-Marseille Universities-, one for 3.0.x, ...). And, more important probably, the community suffers from not knowing exactly what has been done and how. I think what we should do now is : integrate all our (BibLibre) patches into the 3.2 repo as soon as possible, open widely the repo, and let everyone play with it ("Release Soon, Release Often"). I'm sure other developers from Chris C. to PTFS, Tamil, PTFS-Europe, ByWaterSolutions,... will be very happy to test & play with all those patches. If some other people have "finished" or "almost finished" features, they should be added as well. It's not a matter of putting BibLibre 1st, it's just a matter of being agile ! cheers -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08

Question/Suggestion for Development
by Nicole Engard 26 Aug '09

26 Aug '09

With all of the new system preferences we've been adding and those that have been asked for, I'm wondering why we don't have check boxes for preferences instead of just ON & OFF. An example: For Amazon we have a bunch of preferences : AmazonAssocTag AmazonCoverImages AmazonEnabled AmazonLocale AmazonReviews AmazonSimilarItems AWSAccessKeyID AWSPrivateKey Why not change it to AmazonAssocTag AmazonEnabled - and choose from AmazonCoverImages, AmazonReviews, and/or AmazonSimilarItems AmazonLocale AWSAccessKeyID AWSPrivateKey I thought of this when I was thinking of people asking to have preferences to show different messaging options and to have the ability to decide which tabs are visible in the OPAC on the patron record. Instead of having 6 on/off toggles for each type of message that patrons can receive why not just one preference with 6 check boxes - pick which ones you want. The same for tabs that appear on the patron record in the OPAC? Seems like a nice way to consolidate our system preferences and make it easier down the road to allow for customizations in what shows and what doesn't. I'm just wondering if this was ever considered, if it's possible, or if it's just a silly suggestion :) Thanks Nicole

Koha Suggest
by Pablo A. Bianchi 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

Hi! I wish to know what developers think about adding something similar to "Google Suggest" feature to Koha: http://labs.google.com/suggestfaq.html How much difficult is to add this? How much more server resources it takes? I think would be really awesome to add this to a lot of Koha input fields: OPAC search box, on some fields of catalogation form (mainly access point fields, author, title...). I'll probably create a ticket with this suggestion on bugs.koha.org. Regards, Pablo PS: This was inspired on editing genre and artist fields on Amarok 1.4 audio player :P

Dear all, my name is Cristian. I work at Milan university-computer Science Library. We are planning to install Koha and use it as ILS. I would like to ask you some questions: - which are the differences between Koha 3.0 and 3.2? I could not find a document about what's new in Koha 3.2; - is a manual about Koha available as PDF or in another printable format? Thanks everybody for any help, All the best Cristian
