New release candidates
by Tonnesen Steve 22 Jul '02

22 Jul '02

I've uploaded two new release candidates to sourceforge: 1.2.2RC4 Fixes minor problems in 1.2.1 RC3 was downloaded over 200 times from sourceforge and I heard few complaints. The changes in RC4 are small and shouldn't cause any new problems. If I don't hear any complaints, I think we should release 1.2.2 based on RC4 tomorrow. Changes in RC4: - installer.pl asks for the location of apache's config file if it can't find it - Fix to updatedatabase script that fixes a problem with full acquisitions - Fixed bad link in detail.tmpl (pointed to intradev.katipo.co.nz) 1.2.3RC5 - major changes: templating and authentication module RC4 was only downloaded 12 times. I suspect that this one needs a lot more testing. I think that putting the release candidates in the koha-unstable project reduces the likelihood of people installing them on production systems but also reduces the amount of testing that gets done on release candidates? Not that I'm complaining. The first effect makes it well worth it. :) Changes in RC5: - Fix to Auth.pm that broke basic authentication feature - Fix to updatedatabase fixes problem with full acquisitions

[Bug 71] New: budget start date is hardcoded in bookfunds() in Acquistions.pm

http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=71 Summary: budget start date is hardcoded in bookfunds() in Acquistions.pm Product: Koha Version: 1.2.2 Platform: PC OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Acquisitions AssignedTo: chris(a)katipo.co.nz ReportedBy: tonnesen(a)cmsd.bc.ca QAContact: koha-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net I propose that bookfunds should return a list of bookfunds whose start and enddates include today's date. Would this cause problems with libraries "fudging" budgets (ie receiving orders a month late, but putting them in the previous year's budget because there's money left)? As I see it, the current setup doesn't allow this either, so we wouldn't be losing functionality. :) ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact.

From the Kaitiaki
by Pat Eyler 20 Jul '02

20 Jul '02

19 July, 2002 To the Koha community; Bon Dia, Well, I've heard a little bit of feedback on modules, and it seems that most of you are leaning toward the idea of using more existing Perl modules and needing fewer Koha specific functions. If you still want to toss in your thoughts, please do -- we need to come to closure on this pretty soon though, so don't delay. I'd still like to hear from people who are using Koha. If you've got a success story (or non-success story), please send it to me (<kaitiaki(a)koha.org>). I'd like to be able to use some of your stories to help publicize Koha. (And if you've had problems, perhaps we can find a way to fix them.) To help get a bit more data about Koha users (how many of you are there, where are you located, etc). We're starting to put together a survey. It will be hosted on the web, and I'll be sure to announce it here. Documentation The librarian specific manual has been written (thanks to Rosalie and her band of merry librarians). Nick has given it a first review, and it is now in the hands of another reviewer (Brig McCoy, who's a new contributor). With this, the manual is basically complete. It's not done though. Look for more information to be included as we go along. If you think we've missed something in our efforts so far, please lend a hand. Translations The French translations are continuing apace. The manual has gone through a first draft and is being reviewed. The French Koha website is nearing completion, and the 'From the Kaitiaki' notes are being translated regularly. A second librarian has contacted me about a Spanish translation. Cristian and Enrique have been meeting together and have volunteered to start translating Koha and providing support to Latin American (especially Chilean) libraries interested in using Koha. Let's wish them well. Community One of the most exciting things happening in the world of Koha is the increasing amount of visibility we're getting. I've recently had email from New Zealand and New Caladonea about articles being written about Koha. I've heard from people interested in seeing Koha translated into Arabic. We've also seen some evidence that Koha is now in use on five continents. We're also starting to get some notice outside the library world, most recently we were mentioned in the Linux Weekly News (in their 'Development Section'). Wow! The future is looking bright. Thanks again to everyone who has been putting time and energy into making Koha into such a great application. Obrigado -pate Pat Eyler Kaitiaki of the Koha Project
