Hi, all,

First things first - Joshua: I tried getting to those links you posted in
your July 14th message.

 I don't know what I am doing wrong, but I can't get to them. (I had a
similar problem with the link Ed Estka tried to offer).

 Any suggestions?

I have a few questions that have sort of crystallised out of my (so far
poor) efforts to help out Christian Calle with his Koha questions. Please,
anyone more conversant in Spanish, pitch in. (I'd have better luck writing
him in Latin.)

I played around online with the test version of Koha, not realising that any
changes I made there would remain. I apologise if I've screwed anything up
for anyone.

At the time, I was intending to delineate the complete MARC21 field
structure, but then I thought (erroneously?) that it wouldn't be available
for anyone actually to use so what would be the point.

Now, Christian is asking for a delineation of MARC tag structure (I think he
was expecting that it was included withinn Koha to begin with, which I
understood is not the case), so ....

* Question 1: For his sake and for the sake of others, if I and/or
interested others 'fix' what is available in the test version online, would
it be possible for him/others to simply download it somehow?
