My organization has been wanting to use Koha for some time now and I have been holding that project off for a few months as version 3 release seemed eminent.
A 3.0 release is eminent, but Windows compatibility for it is necessarily secondary until that happens.
Is there really not going to be a v3 release for Windows anytime soon?
I don't think Chris has any incentive to mislead you here. The problems are well documented at the wiki he linked: http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:installation:win32:koha_3_win32_installe... So yes, it seems like it will be some time before that is polished off. On the other hand, a couple of skilled people dedicated to it could likely resolve the major issue outstanding. The main snag seems to be XML::LibXSLT . In the meantime, I would recommend you experiment with a stock debian installation of Koha. You can run it in a virtual machine if the underlying system cannot be altered, or must run Win32 as a matter of policy. That way you shouldn't have to wait to evaluate most of the features. --joe
