Dear Koha community, We currently have the 3.0 version of Koha. It's new to us , and we are just learning the program. We are about to start lots of data entry next week. What are the advantages of the 3.1 upgraded version? Should we upgrade before we start lots of data entry? I know some of you mentioned re indexing once you have upgraded. What does this involve? Thanks for your input. Janet Deavor St. John Catholic School North Charleston, SC 29405
The current stable release of Koha is version 3.00.06 . Koha 3.2 has reached Beta and will be released as stable before too long. In the meantime it is not yet recommended for production environments. How soon do you plan on going live? If you will go live soon, 3.0.6 is probably the way to go. Upgrading later should not be too difficult. Nonetheless there are some significant differences between 3.0 and 3.2 including a new acquisitions module. Re-indexing involves running the rebuild_zebra.pl script with different options and is straightforward if you have command line access.
