[Koha] A new open source project on Drupal related to sigb (and so koha)

[Claire Hernandez]

Hello,

I am pleased to announce that we contributed a new drupal module called 
opac: http://drupal.org/project/opac Announcement is here: 
http://drupal.biblibre.com/en/blog/entry/biblibre-contributes-the-drupal-opac-module-in-full-projectIt 
evolves a lot but you can begin to test it and give us feedbacks :) The 
first sigb we connected is, of course, koha. It is an other way to 
provide opac and others things around, it is and independant full 
project related to whatever sigb you want.

I would like to introduce a difficulty we encounted: we wanted to build 
on top of Ils-di but not everything can be done with it (and we found 
some bugs). We wonder how to expose koha services to build a significant 
drupal site. Ncip2 is not sufficient for us, so we've made a choice. For 
the moment, we are building a Koha::REST interface. The project is 
published http://git.biblibre.com/?p=koha-restful;a=summary but not yet 
submitted to the community. You can have a look and tell us what you 
think. If you want to send us patches, please do it, if you prefer I 
could clone it in github but the risk is that the project wont be up to 
date everyday.

Regards,
Claire.
