Can we assume that since it is being used in a prominent university environment it needs to use LC not Dewey? Just a thought....

koha 2.0.0pre4 is out
by paul POULAIN 22 Sep '03

22 Sep '03

The 2.0.0pre4 version of Koha has been released. It may be interesting for english users to update. French users MUST update : RELEASE NOTES ============= This version of Koha is still in the "unstable" directory, because some bugs are still reported. But it's fully useable and used in (at least) 4 libraries in "real world" : * Nelsonville Public Library, Ohio, USA * Esiee, high school, France * Dombes Abbey, France * Wesford school, France This release fixes a few bugs, and MANY french translation fixes/improvements. BUGFIXES/IMPROVEMENTS --------- * new script : koha/koha/misc/overduenotices.pl This is a script for the use of printing, and emailing overdue notices. The script must be run from the command line Documentation is contained in the script * fix for bug 603 : patron searches are wonky when first letter of first and last name are the same * removing trailing "," in subject. * fixing some bugs in charges.pl, script that fills the categoryitem table. The categoryitem table contains fines for every itemtype-borrowercategory. Still has to be templated and added to admin part of Koha * notforloan bug fix : now, if a specific item is "notforloan" and the itemtype "forloan", the "notforloan" is used. Before this fix, it was overwritted by the itemtype info/ * fixing a bug that deleted the MARC part of a biblio when using full acqui system. Now, when you acquire a book through full acqui system, what you enter during acqui appears in the right MARC fields in MARC editor. FRENCH SPECIFIC --------- More than 30 improvements/bugfixes in french templates. -- Paul POULAIN Consultant indépendant en logiciels libres responsable francophone de koha (SIGB libre http://www.koha-fr.org)

opac-user.pl
by Owen Leonard 17 Sep '03

17 Sep '03

Sorry for the re-post, but I never got a response to this, and I'd really like to know the answer! In opac-user.pl, in the default template, there's a column marked 'Current Loan', with values 'yes' or 'no' (<TMPL_IF NAME="status">) What does that mean? In the vanilla template for the same file, there's this block of markup: <TMPL_IF NAME="renewable"> <A HREF='/cgi-bin/koha/opac-renew.pl?from=opac_user&item=<TMPL_VAR NAME="itemnumber">&bornum=<TMPL_VAR NAME="borrowernumber">' class="padded">Renew</A> <TMPL_ELSE> Not renewable </TMPL_IF> ...but this always returns 'Not renewable'. What condition needs to be met for it to be renewable? Or is something not working? -- Owen ---- Nelsonville Public Library Koha 2.0.0-pre2-R2

Biblio::ILL::ISO
by David Christensen 07 Sep '03

07 Sep '03

Hi all, I've just put the first semi-usable Biblio::ILL::ISO up on the CPAN. Still need to figure out how to handle ASN.1 extensions, and do a whack of interoperability testing with "real" ILL systems.... but it's a start. Thanks for your comments, they are always appreciated. -David Christensen
