Hackfest in Marseille, what you missed and what you'll be see soon in 18.05
Hello all, So the 2018 hackfest in Marseille is now finished. It was a great week, with a lot of work, a lot of discussion, a lot of fun. The weather was with us, except on thursday, the evenings were full of beer & happyness. Let's summarize what we made... Koha Elastic Search Our hotest topic, for sure 10 patches written and/or signed off. A lot of work on Elastic Search. BULAC want to go live with Koha+ES with 18.05 [Thank you François and Severine, Bulac, Nick, Bywatersolutions, Alex, BibLibre] UNIMARC & bibliographic transition (FRBR): • default frameworks at install updated [thank you François, Roubaix public library] • script written to update all cataloguing frameworks with new MARC records preparing FRBR (IFLA 2017 fields & subfields) [thank you Julian, BibLibre] • zebra indexes definition started, to be finished [thank you François, Roubaix public library] • XSLT to display those new fields still to do FRBR & ReasonableGraph 3 developers from AltSol, a Greek company working on FRBR and a software called ReasonableGraph (see https://reasonablegraph.org/) showed what they made with Koha & MARC data. They'll keep to work on it, the Koha community may hear of them again in the future. Maybe starting with a plugin that can be compared to the Ebsco EDS plugin: instead of searching in Koha, search would be made on ReasonableGraph database, that is fully FRBR compliant, and present results in a "FRBR way" [Thank you Nikos, AltSol] Translation The french team worked and finished to translate 100% of 17.11, the release notes, and most of the documentation.
