[Koha] Item Statuses

[Fridolin SOMERS]

No, the LOST, WITHDRAWN, DAMAGED, RESTRICTED statuses are used in 
display and circulation.
They must be used to avoid an item loan.
The NOT_LOAN status must only be used to define :
  - acquisition statuses (on order, ...) with values < 0
  - 0 means for loan
  - available for reference with values > 0

We add precisely this discussion with ByWater during hackfest.

Best regards,
