Support for Koha

Hi Koha Users, I am a US librarian considering Koha. A friend of mine sent me the following email when I shared this and I wanted to check with other libraries to see if this is how everyone handles developments. Are you working on your own or with a support company? Are all new develpments you pay for making it into the public Koha? Thank you for info Cheryl ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Vicki Teal Lovely <vtl(a)scls.lib.wi.us> Date: Thu, Jul 30, 2009 at 9:43 AM Subject: [LibLime-Users] LibLime Users Meeting at ALA To: liblime-users(a)lists.liblime.com Good Morning Everyone, By now you have probably read the announcement that there was a user group meeting at ALA. Debra Denault took notes at this meeting and you will see them below. I was present at this meeting and this is an accurate transcription of the discussion that occurred there. Please keep in mind that no decisions were made at this meeting--it was only the beginning of some discussions that LibLime customers need to have. The email list was created as a forum for us to discuss topics such as these (among other things), so let's start discussing. Joshua Ferraro has suggested that we may want have a meeting to discuss these topics in person--perhaps in a virtual forum. Thanks, Vicki Teal Lovely LibLime Users Group Meeting, ALA, July 13 Attendees: LibLime (Josh, Debra, Maria) WALDO (Rob, John, Becky) Walden University - Michele INCOLSA - Becki Whitaker Highland Park - Jane Stanley SCLS - Vicky Teal Lovely Masscat - Nora Blake St. John's University - Charles ? Josh presents: Why are we here? Challenges we face *Jane Stanley said that she would be amenable to extra maintenance to support the gap between cost and expense of development LibLime user group proposal air dirty laundry expand development exchange get to know other LibLime customers improve communication of software releases improve communication of new and info to LibLime customers LibLime committed to launch a listserv next month 1. Incorporation 2. Membership 3. Funding 4. 2010 users group conference Feedback: John Stromquist - always find emergence of user's group when there is a strategic relationship between customer and vendor. Evaluate vendors performance, encourage them etc which shouldn't interfere with a broader community group. More difficult challenge of funding of future development. Exercise option by searching for solutions to the funding problems for development. Get a funding stream for development through membership dues etc. Jane - Hard for a small library that can only contribute a small amount to get anything done. Perception is that LL is too committed to these large projects to let the small guys have a say. Josh - have membership fee x% of contract value to go towards user group as well as development decisions Vicky - she would hate to see a small library with a small amount of money who has committed money to large pool and not get what they want done ... would prefer to see a) people need to see what dev projects are out there but who is going to keep it up - maybe a user group responsibility b) wishlist - we want this done can we cosponsor. Do not want to be locked into a voting situation. Kudos want to do it on larger scale but no where near being able to do it. John S - lots of ways we can approach this - some money toward larger scale but understand there are small development needs that could exist in parallel. Do a credit against funding toward positive suggestions and central fund could match it. Vicky - can't see their libraries putting there money somewhere where they do not have control over it . Nora concurs from Masscat John S - libraries want to see service out of where their money is going. WALDO sees the benefits of it. Josh - 15% wouldn't necessarily be pooled but can be. But libraries could band with others to do projects separatey. Needs to be a metric by which to measure how participation is going. John S - libraries need to know it's an equitable process Vicky - To Josh - is getting this money what LL needs to make it more stable. Help out others that may not be able to afford something specifically. Get folks together and do it. Josh - How can we make this work? Jane - Can we get a quote for LL and post to the listserv if others would want to share. Vicky - Thinks that would be better than pooling it together. Jane - It's the large consortia versus the little guys and they would have the budget to do things on their own and the small guys need the help. Josh - but WALDO could help in in any situation Becki - value of a group like this would be the method to share what we are doing and important step to be able to share our developments. Vicky - very first step - who's doing what. But we want to work with our vendor Rob - now that we are all shareholders in this and in LibLime there is a risk in sharing the development and that the investment is safe (i.e. from other vendors in the space) Need to maintain a level of discretion in involvement of other groups. Josh - if user group would like to take over and run the development exchange that would relieve our staff. Specification process is a line item. Is there a committment when a request is made for a sponsored project to be done? Vicky - Maybe two lists - one for committed project and one for good ideas and have projects move along a spectrum. Josh - LL is working on a new LibLime website that will have a login for customers to log in access Vicky - Koha bugzilla db - use that for enhancements - ??? how much do LL customers want to share with outside world what will be done. Jane - was told can't pay for bugfixes - Josh - need to figure out membership dues - just do freeform - need to figure out how it all works - can reevaluate this yearly. John - would like to propse some kind of statement of intent or recognition as a open source LL user that there is an obligation to contribute to ongoing development and money needs to be set aside for this so system can continue to grow. Not just a free lunch Vicky - part of their philosophy is we have money for development and they are contributing and they would hate to force any library to contribute to development. Doesn't want it to be part of membership requirements Josh - related to funding we at LL are interested too as we have made a significant investment in Koha and that has been at the expense of profit for us and we want to make sure development is working as sufficiently as possible. Becky - significant improvement in that a customer can be recognized for their contribution. Josh - Any thoughts on a conference? Rob - could be dependent on going live dates etc. John - alot of chatter about the community of Koha by developers need librarian input and we are looking for an organization that talk about library issues. Vicky - too soon to have a conference. Don't think folks could afford it for such a small group. Do a half day for LL users off KohaCon as automation libraries cannot go to ALA. Should be off a kudos annual conference. Jane - how does that contradict our committment to LL. Josh - part of our goal with LL users group is to build stronger legs where we can compete with other companies. Not that we are against all the other competitors - have great relationship with ByWater but there are some out there acting like sharks putting us in a difficult position Vicky - puts us in a difficult position not to be able to share with other community to users and the LL pool is too small in her opinion. Josh - well LL users contributes 97% Vicky - you will cause a rift in your customer base and there are enough that want to work with Koha users that it is going to happen. John - but there doesn't need to be a choice to be made. The kudos committment is a higher level participation. Josh - not saying can't go to the kudos or participate in kudos but we need the LL user's group conference because of other reasons. Kate - what kind of attendence of LL customers - 60% of customers - 100 people Josh - at a LL user group meeting customers can be more open and honest than if at a shared event. Charles - i'm a low level player but what he sees is a .com organization talking to a bunch of .edu organizations with different philosophies. Where/when does this mean a split in the product. Josh - 1. that's already happened . Koha by LibLime different already than what others delivered. 2. getting considerable pressure by sponsored developments to embargoing the code. 3. LL cannot change the philosophy to contribute to the community. Need to have a timed release that gives us a strategic advantage. Nora - this is very upsetting and disconcerting to us. That's not why we joined on. Josh - we would still give you all the community stuff Becky - but that breaks the value of open source Rob - the conditions have changed in being able to support the model. The user community has to answer why are we uncomfortable sharing and how the community is having adverse effect on why we got together in the first place. Vicky - would like to explore more positive ways for getting LL funding rather than break the community model of Koha. Josh - not making it not opensource - but we will hold it back. Nora/Vicky - don't like it - won't fly. Vicky - Kings County is splitting Evergreen to their own code and Vicky has been telling everyone how proud we are not in a position of having to do that. John - Jane - if there is another company underbidding are they sustainable themselves Josh - but this company has deep pockets and can sustain the loss. We have no capital backing Rob - learning a lesson from a shark that may not do much damage but what about the next shark. John - obligation to his consortia members who have contributed 750K Vicky - still share with everyone and want what they have. All of Wisconsin may all become LL customers. Rob - what we are grasping with is it open or not? It's not that it's not open but rather when does it become open. Charles - holding open source back - what period of time do you have in mind Josh - not made a concrete decision on this yet. Not intent to talk about it today but bottom line is the problem is the cost to expense ratio of development and we cannot subsidize it with other services. Vicky - how are those decisions to develop those made if didn't have funding. Becki - if we had known then that 3.2 is not till the fall they would have bought into it back in the spring. If intent is to have a product that there are delays in releasing customer needs to know more concrete dates. Rob - development exchange can address these needs by gathering funding from smaller sources to be applied to these types of big projects. Vicky - instead of you saying it's a good project a library will front it you are suggesting this needs to be done who will front it. Vicky - if you are asking for the money to get closer it needs to be Koha related not other 3rd party projects and the software needs to be brought to a level that other libraries will migrate it to it. John - it's a timing issue Vicky - LL needs to offer stable support and need to prove that we can do it and show evidence it can be done. Do not want to withhold code. It would be a hard sell for me to go back and have my library agree to that. Josh - well of course there is time involved before the customer even approves code - make it longer term quality assurance testing first with customer then LL customers then to the community at large. Other thing that needs to be considered is that LL has been leading the Koha community but there seems to be an uprising amongst other Koha developers so we won't be holding those positions of quality assurance / release management of Koha and that will mean a detrimental effect on the quality of the product - trying to address that eventuality. Jane - do you see LL version diverging from the community Vicky - isn't there a group of folks Josh - yes but release manager has final say and if we lose that capability then what if our customers are not served by the product. We are not dedicated to the Koha community to a fault. Our customers come first and need to have stable good code. WrapUp It's been a valuable conversation. Need to continue the dialog to address. Will establish LL mailing list .. appropriate time to have a group meeting. Meeting adjourned 12:06 p.m. On Thu, Jul 23, 2009 at 10:51 AM, Joshua Ferraro<jmf(a)liblime.com> wrote: -- Vicki Teal Lovely vtl(a)scls.lib.wi.us Software Applications Supervisor SCLS Automation 201 W.

Can not place hold on an item

Hello, I have prepared simplified MARC framework for enterfing new books into catalog (SQL file in the attachment:koha_template_final.txt). I can add a book to the catalog, add item, search for the book but I can't place a hold on it. I tried to add a book using default framework (the complete MARC framework) but the effect is the same. Can you please advice? Entries from error logs below.

Tenth anniversary
by Galen Charlton 05 Aug '09

05 Aug '09

Hi, I just realized that I had created a happy coincidence by picking 6 September as the soft feature freeze date for 3.2. From docs/history.txt: September 6 1999 Work starts on Koha By the power invested in me by absolutely nobody, I hereby declare 6 September 2009 (by New Zealand reckoning) to be global Koha Day in celebration of the 10th anniversary of the inception of this project. My thanks to the Horowhenua Library Trust for initiating our common endeavor, and to all users and contributors past, present, and future for making Koha the exemplar of sharing that it is. Regards, Galen -- Galen Charlton Koha 3.2 Release Manager gmcharlt(a)gmail.com

Hello all, I just want to find out if there are any users of Koha around Kent or London. I have about 3 installations of koha running in Nigeria. I'm presently in the UK and would really like to visit a koha installation here, and rub minds together on this great software. Thanks Olugbenga Adara Mobile: 234-803-3220288 UK Mobile 07554561589

Re: [Koha] Problem adding book with non ascii characters in title

Salvete! >More specifically, what *encoding* of the characters have you tried?

In my experience, combining characters are >less reliably interpreted by Koha and Zebra than composed ones. Then trying to use multiple combining >characters *always* failed for me. Is this a problem with a solution? It seems like a problem with a difficult solution and not an unsolvable problem. It seems like a good one to address slowly but surely, cause if we do it well, I can only imagine that a lot of people would be happier for it. Cheers, Brooke

Evergreen
by Vicki Teal Lovely 04 Aug '09

04 Aug '09

Hi, I want to re-tract the statement that I made at the LibLime users group about the Evergreen code being forked. This was based on a mis-understanding of something someone said. I have since been assured by more than one Equinox employee that there is no intention by King County to fork the Evergreen code. (Whew!) I apologize for making such a statement when I was not fully informed. If you know others outside this mailing list who have received the LibLime users group notes and who may be concerned about this statement--please feel free to share my retraction.
