Dear Team,

We have been providing Koha support services including hosting, DB
migration, various hardware integration including NFC technology.

Would like to get listed  as a Koha support service provider at below page.
https://koha-community.org/support/paid-support/random/

Just wondering if this is the correct mailing list to send 
introduction information as instructed below.
https://koha-community.org/support/paid-support/how-to-get-listed/

Aplogies if I have missed something.
Kindly guide us to correct path if this is not the correct list.

Best Regards,
Dileepa

Since our conversion to Koha we stopped using them, but data from previous systems has these indicators filled in. Upon inspection, in most cases the given value is even wrong somehow (0's are 1's etc.). But it doesn't seem to affect indexation.

> The second indicator in field 245, according to the MARC 21 rules, should indeed be used to skip possible articles (i.e. The, Le, La, Les, De, Het, etc.) when indexing. But in Koha, or in our case anyway, these indicators don’t seem to be working. Most of our records have the indicators filled in, but it doesn’t affect indexation. No characters are skipped, even if the second indicator is filled in.
