Hello all,
this is the final reminder that we're going to be having our (irregularly
scheduled) irc meeting today at 2200 GMT. Due to a job interview
(yay!!!), I'll not be able to attend (boo!!!). I'd expect that you'll not
miss me too much. Perhaps Si or Nick can conduct the meeting.
I'd recommend something like this for the agenda (if I've missed
something, please speak up). This does look a little bit long, if it's
too long, perhaps we should hit part of it this week and part via email.
:::proposed agenda:::
Coding Issues
Templating issues
finding ppl to help paul with 1.4
possible shift to savannah
new developers
ewan's work on documenting Koha Requirements
creating Bundle::KohaSupport for installing needed Perl modules
Is this something we ought to pursue?
Nelsonville Public Library projects
Is this kind of involvement a good thing? (I think so) How do we
integrate projects like these? How do we encourage more libraries
to do the same kind of thing? Is there a better method than RFPs?
(Maybe posting a bounty for successful completion of certain
milestones?)
Translations
templating
Tools
OK on "2 person" rule for a supported translation
translations list
Documentation
Ideas/suggestions, comments on update procedure
Installer vs. manual
Current "open support topics":
stand-alone machines/semi-standalones,
windows config.
New document idea -- 'Migrating to Koha'
Should we put together a guide to migrating to Koha? I'm thinking
that it should start out with general issues, then move on to
specifics on a system by system basis.
Misc
Features timetable
Handling support
When to start deprecating work on 1.2.X and shunting ppl to 1.4
Oct 23-24 Ohio Library Association Meeting
Nelsonville is going to be making a report on using Open Source in
libraries, and will be featuring Koha. How can we help them?
Publicity
Linux Journal has expressed interest in a story about libraries
using Koha. They've requested pictures and have offered up cover
story status for a sufficiently compelling piece/picture. pate
will work on outlining and writing, but would like to drop in
some interview bits and some timelines from successfule
implementations (input/advice/criticism/etc. welcomed).
Press Page
Do we want to put a press page (contacts, links to stories, etc)
on www.koha.org?
