Koha 1.2.2 has been released. Special thanks (again) to Steve Tonnesen, who drove this release to completion. 1.2.2 is a significant bug squashing release: * checkvalidisbn() routine fixed * upload marc records routine fixed * some improvements to installer.pl and koha.upgrade * subjectsearch.pl was missing in OPAC interface * koha.upgrade wasn't modifying the Z39.50 daemon startup scripts properly * installer.pl and koha.upgrade warn if installing a release candidate * 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 Many people have combined in testing this release, and we expect it to be the best Koha yet! We encourage you to get this new release and give it a spin. We think you'll like what you see. We plan on continuing to improve Koha, and would love to have you come along on this exciting journey. As always, downloads and more information are available from: <http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/koha/> Chris Cormack Pat Eyler 1.2 Release Manager Kaitiaki/Manager the Koha Project the Koha Project

This is not likely to be a one time job. I've speak frankly to you and in main koha list: my goal is to adopt koha from now (1.2.1) in my office of my organization (a nonprofit one, for disabled children), and push the adoption of 1.4.X for all the organization offices in italy, localizing that. > Eventually, those languages that are officially supported will have website > space at <country code>.koha.org... currently, the only language/nation to > have that status is France (fr).

You're in right, but i think that this can be accomplished only if can be found a (illuminated ;) commercial sw house in italy that can actively support and localize koha, making money with support (as katipo do, i think). As a user i can contribute the translation of the manual, of the program but really not support for other, or handling a it.koha.org website. I've just my business... ;-))) -- dott.
