[Koha-devel] New feature (idea) for Koha 3

Hello,

A new feature that could (should ?) be implemented in Koha 3 :
biblios have the "ISBD" system preference, that contains a personnalised 
  version of the biblio.
My libraries reported that it would be nice (better) to have :
1- 1 specific "template" for each itemtype
2- a specific "template" to show the summary of the biblio in the result 
list (= having a different template for monographies & serials for example)
3- the same thing for authorities. (I must admit that authorities 
details are really awful, it's almost the raw MARC record)

Unless someone declares he is already working on this, I'll do it (me or 
hdl or antoine, depends on who get some time to do this. I think 2 days 
are needed to do something working well)

PS : Other ideas in the same area :
- rewrite the "normal" (=detail.pl), to get rid of non MARC database
- add a systempreference to enable MARC view or disable it in OPAC.

Warning : "template" don't mean "HTML::Template", it means something the 
library can modify
