Pity, since my library has overdue charges, proper (and automatic) handling of holidays etc. would be very nice touch. why is it a pity ? Koha 3.0 is not that far : i've started deploying it in france (1 librariy done, 3 to come soon), i'm working hard on fixing reported bugs. I hope that a public release can occur in september (although with probably some RC (Release Candidate) warnings)
Unfortunately, I can`t wait till september, not to mention the 'mainstream' version of Koha is rather unsuitable for Polish libraries, mostly placed in old buildings, divided into branches with separate locations, collections, desks, and sometimes different borrowing and charging policies. I cooperate with Wojciech Zatorski, who is working on a 'university' version, heavily modified compared to the 'mainstream' one, but thought that something as obvious as holiday handling would be already included in 'standard' Koha. As I said before, there`s no need for a GUI, a table with dates to skip and a couple lines of code would be plenty enough :)
Hi As paul said its in the rel_2_2 branch of cvs and in the HEAD, you are welcome to check the code out yourself and install it, if waiting for a new version of 2.2 or 3.0 won't do. IE the code has all been written. Chris -- Chris Cormack chris.cormack@liblime.com VP Research and Development www.liblime.com LibLime +64 21 542 131
