[Koha] Re: MARC support

What is the timeline for the authentication stuff?
I've gone through some of the authentication stuff and it seems deeply
embedded (ie: not modular)
to do this right the authentication should be completely abstracted
from the app and allow a simple drop in authentication replacement. If
this were the case i'd happilly write the ldap stuff. Are there plans to
modularize all this stuff? Thanks....

Wow!, that would be the perfect thing to be in the installation docs
:\
In fact, it's the perfect thing to test during the installation
process. I'll fix this for 1.9.0
seriously, i didn't even think to check CPAN for the module, i assumed
it was part of Koha.
Thanks a lot...
 
Also, do you guys think that koha can handle my library? 90000 books,
maybe a dozen librarians and a couple thousand patrons? I'd have to make
it authenticate to LDAP rather that mysql but that should be trivial...
Thanks again

Without any problems (if you don't plan to install it on a Pentium 100
server :-) )
About LDAP : others also ask for this.
the management team plans to :
* release 2.0 with authentification as it is, through mysql tables.
* add differents auth methods in the 2.1 or 2.2 version
