<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">LibLime,
a Division of PTFS Announces “Harley”, a New Stable Release of Koha Available
for Immediate Download</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">LibLime has made available a tested, stable release
of Koha for immediate download at <a href="http://koha.org/download" target="_blank">http://koha.org/download</a>.<span> </span>LibLime assembled Harley to provide many of
the features developed by PTFS over the last 12 months into one stable and
tested release that can be used immediately by libraries world-wide.<span> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">PTFS acquired LibLime in mid-March, 2010 and has
been transitioning the LibLime business into its existing PTFS library systems
and services organization, all of which will operate under the LibLime brand going
forward.<span> </span>While LibLime will be focused
for the foreseeable future completing transition tasks to accomplish its contractual
obligations, LibLime is committed to open source software, and wanted to make a
significant contribution of code made available to the general public in the
earliest reasonable timeframe. Harley provides this code as a tested,
stable release of Koha that is ready for installation.<span> </span>Harley is the first offering provided by
LibLime since the acquisition, less than 60 days ago.<span> </span>LibLime plans to continue to make significant
new Koha functionality available to libraries around the world.<span> </span>Enhanced software development resources and
the adoption of agile software development processes will allow LibLime to
develop significantly more Koha software in the coming year faster and more
reliably than was previously possible.<span> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">This release includes all functionality in Koha as
of October 2009, plus many new features not yet available.<span> </span>Harley is compatible with both 3.0x and
upcoming 3.2 versions.<span> </span>The code for the
individual new features included in this version has also been made available
for download from the GIT repository.<span> </span>The
features in this release were not ready for 3.2, but, pending acceptance by the
3.4 Koha Release Manager, could be included in release 3.4.<span> </span>The software development effort for Harley
has been sponsored by both PTFS as well as multiple library customers.<span> </span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; color: black;">LibLime is the global leader in open-source solutions for
libraries. Rather than sell software licenses for static,
hard-to-customize software products, The PTFS LibLime Division educates
libraries about the benefits of open source, enabling them to make choices
about how best to provide their communities and staff with better technology
services. The PTFS LibLime Division then facilitates deployment of Koha in
libraries by providing outstanding consulting, development, implementation, and
support/hosting for libraries of all types and sizes. PTFS is also the
developer of the world’s leading content management software, ArchivalWare, and
specializes in meeting library personnel staffing requirements, digitization,
and metadata keying services.
