There is a federation of 92 libraries here in Poland called FIDES. I am
closely associated with them.
Just recently a decision has been made to convert all the bibliographic data
into USMARC. The current format is MARC BN. The BN stands for National
Library (in Polish). Even now that they decided to convert to USMARC they
proposed a draft in which they drop "the MARC indicators" because the
software used does not make use of the indicators. Do you think that it will
impede or make difficult to import data without indicators into MARC-enabled
koha as you have designed it?
