Hey Mason, I attached 2 files with all tags/subtags of LOC as of today. I wrote a script to download all relevant LOC pages and parse tags/subtags

I have a script that check in database if a tag/subtag is present or has a different legend in liblabrarian/libopac. But the result must be inserted by hand :-(

awesome!. could you put these scripts on a git repo on the web?

I tried to write a script to update the SQL file directly, but failed until now. Another possibility I tested today is update directly in the database and then use a touched dump to regenerate framework files.

We need an automated way to update bibs and authority framework,

yeah, we really do… good news is… from LOC's ecbdlist.html page, it's possible to auto-build a correct default fwrk (i think) http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/ecbdlist.html i have been thinking about using pootle to handle string translations in the frameworks, too so, we have 2 tasks... 1/ a script to build a default MARC21 framework from LOC's ecbdlist.html file 2/ translate default framework strings to various languages via a .po file

but right now I'm stuck with the update of pootle (in translate.k-c)

Perhaps you can do it :-) If I can be of any assistance, I'll be glad.

i cant promise anything soon, but i'll see what i can do

PS: 1) Why we use tag legends in uppercase?, I hate that

yep, me too. this is a bug

2) In SQL file, numbered subtags comes before character ones, in LOC pages the other way

yes, i noticed that too :) i think the important thing is the order that they are display to the user but... Koha's displays this in the wrong order?, so... another bug?

3) In many tag legends we use 2 dashes '--' as separator, in LOC pages only one dash '-'

yes, another bug :)
