Several people have contacted me recently about working on Koha. With our current push to 2.0.0, I'd like to take a moment to get everybody working in the same direction. First, if you haven't done it yet, please sign up as a developer. This entails several things: * get an account at sourceforge and let me know what it is so that you can have CVS access * set up an account at bugs.koha.org so that you can submit, claim, and resolve bugs in our bugzilla system * sign up for at least the koha-devel list (you may also want to sign up for the bugzilla list, the cvs list, and/or the Koha list -- if you are multilingual, please sign up for the koha-translate list.) Next, please don't work on new functionality for the main Koha system at this point. Until we get 2.0.0 out the door, only Paul will be adding features to Koha (and not many). All of our work should be on bugs. If you want to fix something and don't see a bug report for it, please create one. If you are adding features for you local site, don't worry. Hold on to your changes. Once we've released 2.0.0, we can start folding in new features. The sooner we get the bug list cleared out, the sooner we can release 2.0.0. If you have a bit of spare time, please adopt a bug and put us out of its misery. Getting 2.0.0 done is going to be a big milestone for us. There are a lot of libraries looking pretty hard at Koha right now. 2.0.0 is going to be a big step in convincing them that Koha is ready. thanks, -pate Pat Eyler Kaitiaki/manager migrant Linux sys admin the Koha project ruby, shell, and perl geek http://www.koha.org http://pate.eylerfamily.org
