Hello all, TRANSLATION & ROADMAP =============================== Koha 2.2.3 is almost ready. Translators can/must work on their translation files (.po) You MUST update your translations file & check them. There are at least[*] : 9 new strings and 23 fuzzy in OPAC and 17 untranslated / 29 fuzzy in default librarian template. I plan to release Koha 2.2.3 next monday, so you have almost 1 week do update your translations. Reminder : export PERL5LIB=/path/to/koha ./tmpl_process3.pl update -r -i ../../koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/default/en -s po/default_intranet_your_language.po --exclude=.*unimarc.* ./tmpl_process3.pl update -r -i ../../koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/default/en -s po/default_intranet_fr_FR.po Once you have updated, commit the new po file, i'll take care of tmpl_process3.pl install before releasing. Note : for ppl that don't have cvs access, i can rebuild a .po file and send it by mail. [*] because i'm not 100% sure that my french translation file comes from 2.2.2b, it can be more recent, so there can be more strings to translate. RELEASE NOTES ============================== The release notes should be the following (maybe more, but not less, all what is written here is done & ready) BUGFIXES ***** Critical & Minor mixed === ACQUISITION === * adding supplier info to basket.pl (for order printing) * adding a date filter on acquisition history search === OPAC === * minor fix in subject link (normal view) === CATALOGUE === * it's possible to change a framework type when editing a biblio * (critical) bugfix in authorities : in biblio repeated fields, when you choosed an authority entries, it was copied in all the fields, not only in one. * bugfix : when you duplicate a MARC field (for the 2nd time or more), the last field was duplicated too. * bugfix in subject link, in normal view * bugfix when duplicate authority suspected, the link to see the other authority was wrong. * bugfix in items : the Edit biblio button was wrong. * bugfix when MARC=OFF, subject modifs were not stored in MARC database. * bugfix in z3950 client, for BNF (problem probably due to upgrading of some sofwtare in UNIMARC) === AUTHORITIES === * bugfix in "next page" in authority search (was buggy under certain circumstances only) === CIRCULATION === * bugfix : checking issuing rules under certain circumstances was buggy (reported issuing OK where it should not) * bugfix : renewal by issuing a book again did not work correctly. === BORROWERS === * better management of joining & expiry dates : - dates can be manually typed when adding a borrower. - Empty fields are automatically calculated (joining = today & expiry date calculated from borrower category) - Expiry date can be modified * checking expiry date when trying to issue a book & forbidding issuing when expiry date reached. ** IMPORTANT ** This check was not done before. Thus, you may be unable to issue books where you could before. You can update your database borrower by borrower or with the following SQL command on the server : "update borrowers set expiry='2005-31-12'". You can limit the update to a borrower category with "update borrowers set expiry='2005-31-12' where categorycode='A'" (all SQL commands must be typed without any ") * template improvements & some bugfixes in fines management. === PARAMETERS === * in marctagstructure, next & previous button no more loose frameworkcode & link to default framework IMPROVEMENTS === ACQUISITION === * in history search, a filter has been added on order date. * there are now 2 differents totals : one for rrp column & one for est column === CATALOGUE === * There is also a FindDuplicate feature for MARC Authorities * Dictionnary search : for titles, author & subject, there is now a "dictionnary search". when the user clic on ..., a popup appear, that enable search in biblios as well as in authorities. For example, if user clic on author, and enter "Hugo", he will fing all authors & authority having "Hugo". He then can choose the Hugo he want and run the search with what he has found (& other criteria as well if he want) * it's now possible to change the framework of a biblio * the overduenotice.pl script (that sends a mail to borrowers with late issues) contains the list of late items (title, author) === PARAMETERS === * a new button in marctagstructure.pl has been added : if selected, only actived fields/subfields are shown. Subfields used are in a summary just under the tag. Strongly limits the number of lines shown & more user friendly. * Adding 2 checks in marc parameter checking : only 1 MARC tag must be mapped to item tab and warning if there is NULL in a frameworkcode' === REPORTS === * in "borrowers with no issues" wizard, adding "without issues since" === OPAC === * basket / bookbag sending now has item list and an iso2709 file attached * links to reach suggestions & virtual shelves from any OPAC page * improvements in style sheet for better standard compliance. OPAC works perfectly under opera & konqueror. * added a systempref to define an alternate image as logo (for main page & top-left image on each page) * added a systempref to choose either to show or hide "lost" items. Note that "lost items" can be related to an authorised value list, so does not necessary mean "item definetly lost". Even here, some libraries want to see lost items, and some don't want. This parameter will make everybody happy ! * adding a "complete historyview" for subscription.
