[Koha] Koha Digest, Vol 96, Issue 42

[Kivilahti Olli-Antti]

Hello Mr. Maileseni.

First of all you should create a requirements specification of your 
consortial needs.

Initially we didn't make  a proper specification about what we really 
need and what we could agree to on a political scale to unify our processes.
And we got to pay a lot for that.

So set your targets straight first and be ready to make compromises. It 
is way easier for us to help you if you can provide a list of 
requirements in english.

Sincerely yours...
Olli-Antti Kivilahti
