http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=blob;f=C4/Members.pm;h=fafc99bb7a5b0279f54af0fe9ba33b86c316f745;hb=HEAD#l746
suggests it is md5_base64.

We probably should salt that.  Anyone want that thankless task?  (I
think you'd need to change all calls to C4::Members::changepassword
too and maybe more besides.)

Sorry I can't remember how to add all barcodes to a label batch.

Hope that helps,
