Value generators in cataloguing RFC

== Idea ==
Some data in bibliographic and can be added automatically without librarians assistance. There is no need to bother the cataloguer with such a task. Also, sometimes it is better to do things automatically as we van avoid human mistakes then.
This development focus on adding a new possibility of Koha cataloguing system. We could add new modules in Koha namespace, which could act as "value generators".
== Work flow ==
1. The value generator is set by system administrator to a field in bibliographic framework similarly like cataloguing plugins aka value builders are
2. Cataloguer, will see in the editor deactivated field (if it is even visible)
3. When the record is stored, the value in such a field is generated and added to it
4. It should work similarly in items creating and editing too
== Work to be done ==
== Pros ==
* When the generator is activated, it knows the content and other fields and could use them - I can imagine automatic leader and other control fields creation
* It will be implemented as perl modules, and fully testable!
== Cons ==

Vote for Foundation Options (pt 1)

== Results ==

* PDF: 
* CSV: File:Foundation-pt1.zip
== Call for Participation ==
Hello all,
I am sorry for the delay, I was out of town the past few days. Per our meeting on IRC earlier this week (Foundation Forming IRC Meeting, 15 September 2009), I have put together a survey with some foundation forming questions.
* English: http://opensource.web2learning.net/limesurvey/index.php?sid=68645&lang=en
* French: http://opensource.web2learning.net/limesurvey/index.php?sid=68645&lang=fr
The survey was created using the open source survey tool - LimeSurvey - and so it requires that you have JS enabled and accept its cookies. If you don't - you can use one of these PDF versions to view the questions and just email your answers.
* English: http://opensource.web2learning.net/Koha-English.pdf
* French: http://opensource.web2learning.net/Koha-French.pdf
The reason I chose this survey tool was because it would allow for multiple languages, and it allows for some powerful analytics that I can then share with everyone - most obviously it's open source :)
Also - you will see that when ranking options you have to rank all options - so just put the options you don't care about towards the end of your ranking.
This survey will be active for 2 weeks and then I will put up the final survey - that gives us two weeks to do our research.
This survey is open to any and all members of the Koha community - which means anyone with an interest in the future of Koha - whether they are using the software or active in development or not.
Please feel free to forward these links on and share with others.
Thanks

Web standards support RFC

== Web Standards Support ==
The OPAC should validate to xhtml 1((Standards from http://www.w3.org/)) and CSS 2.1 before release. Preferably, the OPAC should meet WCAG 1.
This RFC is motivated by private and public((http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2009-May/018172.html)) reports and is licensed under the WTFPL((http://sam.zoy.org/wtfpl - maybe not safe for work, but in a different way to the NC terms usually used on this wiki. Basically, public domain for the broken EU.))
----
Although I'm not sure if it's been formalized, XHTML validation has been at least an implicit requirement since at least dev_week, as has validation against CSS 2.0. I have no problem mandating XHTML and CSS 2.1 validation for the OPAC; currently, the staff interface //generally// validates against XHTML except for a persistent (and insoluble?) problem specifying autocomplete=off in a way that validates against XHTML.
I agree that WCAG 1 compliance (and for US users, Section 508 compliance) are desirable, and at least one vendor has expressed interest into doing the legwork required to achieve this. The question is this: how far are the Koha OPAC and staff interface out of compliance? Is anybody willing to commit to doing the necessary cleanup?

Website/Interface Design Agenda for 2005-05-26

== Website/Interface Design Agenda for 2005, May 26 ==
Meeting notes for this meeting
=== 1. Koha Website: ===
* What _is_ koha.org?
* How can koha.org be professional enough for libraries interested while still being a useful resource for developers?
** Russ's Design Process (see below)
** Current Koha Site Map(see below)

* Website TODO list
 
=== 2. Koha Interfaces ===
* Default Template Design Process
** (in no particular order) colors, logos, layout,standards compliance, usability, beauty, accessability(screen readers, PDAs, etc.), translations.
*** should we maintain two sets of templates: the 'programmer templates' (stripped-down versions) and the 'official default templates'?
*** should we change the way that templates are designed? (There’s been some talk about using XML markup and different templating systems, etc., but we’d need to investigate it further to determine whether we should switch to something else.)
** see http://wiki.liblime.com/doku.php?id=koha24rmnotes#templating_system
* Interface TODO list
=== 3. Recruit volunteers to do TODOs ===
* this will probably happen along the way
 
=== 4. Roles ===
* should we have an Interface Designer and if so, who?
* are there other roles?
* how will we handle web site design collaboration?
 
=== References: ===
If you"re new to Koha you may find these references useful in evaluating our current designs and design ideas.

Wishlist for KohaCon12

It isn't too early to express wishes, so please add sections below! Ideally, include the name(s) of those interested.
==Archives and Special Libraries==
A forum or panel discussion of archives/special libraries using Koha. What works/what doesn't - workarounds used - that sort of thing. Emphasis on Free and Open Source Software.
==RDF/Semantic Web/Linked Data==
I (User:Magnus) think we need to start thinking about this stuff in relation to Koha. Maybe a (full day) workshop during the hackfest could be an idea? Maybe with someone from Talis to guide us through it?
==Tutorial on Debian Packaging/repos==
Lars Wirzenius (liw) has been mentioned as a good source for this.
Lars is thinking that the dev conf part would be a good fit for this.

Zebra add z39.50 attribute rfc

There are a relatively small number of variables that are tracked by the various files that we use for zebra configuration: 
#Marc field 
#Marc Subfield 
#Zebra index name 
#Zebra Search type 
#Z39.50 attribute
All of these, *except* for Z39.50 attribute are in biblio-koha-indexdefs.xml -- but biblio-koha-indexdefs.xml isn't used directly -- it is transformed using xsltproc and koha-indexdefs-to-zebra.xsl into biblio-zebra-indexdefs.xsl. If we go ahead and store Z39.50 attribute in biblio-koha-indexdefs.xml, then we can modify koha-indexdefs-to-zebra.xsl so that it will not write that information into biblio-zebra-indexdefs.xsl. This will allow us to use biblio-koha-indexdefs.xml as a single point of truth for all information about indexes. 
This way, we can then use biblio-koha-indexdefs.xml for the following: 
*Generate bib1.att 
*Generate ccl.properties 
*Generate pqf.properties (?) 
*Generate record.abs for backward compatibility (?)
:* We should be deprecating non dom config all together, so lets not generate recrod.abs MRenvoize 10:19, 3 September 2014 (EDT)
*Populate `@indexes` in C4::Search::getIndexes, removing the hard coding of index names.
:* I see this point as the biggest 'easy win' here MRenvoize 10:19, 3 September 2014 (EDT)
Because there are actually six *-koha-indexdefs.xml files, perhaps it would also be worth pushing the abstraction a layer further: A single configuration file containing all marc flavors, biblio and auth configuration -- this would eliminate all possible duplication when editing/adding zebra indexes.
== Discussion ==

http://irc.koha-community.org/koha/2014-09-03#i_1562746
tcohen pointed out that *koha-indexdefs.xml is MARC flavor specific, so it can't act as a single point of truth, which barton to suggest using a master yaml file containing both marc flavor and search type (biblio vs. authorities)... all *koha-indexdefs.xml could be generated from the master file.

Letter to the Editor. “Just the Factoids.” New York Times, 9 January. writes to complain about inaccuracies in Mary Dearborn’s Mailer: A Biography (99.8) that he found repeated in a review of the biography in the 19 December 1999 New York Times review by Caleb Crain. He particularly objected to Dearborn saying that he had not read the works of Karl Marx, and states that he “spent nine months in the winter, spring and summer of 1948-49 reading and brooding over Das Kapital.” He also states that he did not, contrary to her biography, share his Provincetown home with Roy Cohn, who lived next door, and attributes this error to Peter Manso, who he characterized as “a bilious ex-friend.” He chastises Crain for linking himself “uncritically to the free-floating authority of a casual biographer looking for ‘biffs’ and ‘whams’ and ‘pows.’” See 02.8.

Der Spiegel interview with Norman Mailer. Transcript, dated 10 October, 13 pp. Publication date unknown. speaks of the stabbing of his wife Adele: “Many years ago I stabbed my wife with a penknife. Up to the time of that act, I had always thought I was a good man, a decent man, and in fact better than most of the species. Suddenly this incomprehensible catastrophe.” Mailer also discusses Wagner and German culture, the Gulf War, Clinton and Monica Lewinsky (he compares Clinton to Ramses II exposing his huge erect penis at religious festivals 3,000 years ago), the Bush-Gore presidential race, Thomas Mann, and modern architecture.

“Tough Guys Don’t Twitch.” Article by Sebastian Smee. Panorama (Complimentary magazine of Ansett Australia Airline), August, 24–29. Account of the joint appearance of and Martin Amis at a New Yorker literary festival in a Manhattan synagogue, hosted by editor David Remnick. Amis begins: “When I read Mailer as a young man, I thought: ‘This guy’s trying to influence me.’ Like every writer of my generation, I’ve had to toil with the unstoppable and unignorable energy of Norman Mailer.” After Amis reads a short story, Mailer is introduced as “the American Balzac” by Remnick, and then reads from his essay “Of a Small and Modest Malignancy, Wicked and Bristling with Dots” (77.7).

“Mailer at Pugnacious Best.” Interview-article by Joel Yanofsky. The Gazette (Montreal), 22 September. Speaking at the Shaar Hashomayim Synagogue in Westmount on 21 September, spoke about “the extraordinary complex burden of being Jewish,” and also about recent media attention paid to a new memoir, Dream Catcher, by J. D. Salinger’s daughter, Margaret. “What did the newspapers all say—that he’s drinking p---,” Mailer said. “We never think, ‘Here’s this sensitive hermit and if he’s drinking urine then maybe there’s something to it. At the end of the evening he concluded, “I can’t even believe I brought up what the newspaper will say tomorrow: ‘Mailer likes drinking urine too.

“Norman Mailer Muses on Cynicism, Writing, TV.” Article by Gloria Goodale. 29 September. Internet. In this article, based on an earlier interview in the Christian Science Monitor and quotes from his upcoming (October 4) profile on the PBS “American Masters” biography series, is quoted on a broad range of topics. Cynicism: “Good, available writing almost always is funny and sharp and biting and cynicism is perfect for that. But cynicism is really a roadblock to becoming a bit of a philosopher.” Intellectuals: “This culture is distrustful of intellectuals. In Europe, everything matters, and they say it with great passion. Here, you can say anything you want, but it doesn’t matter. Nobody is paying attention.” Television: “I love the idea of watching something on television until the moment when I figure out what’s going on, and then I switch to the next show.” Becoming a novelist in the 40s: “We had a much better time back then, because there was nothing more glamorous, more exciting, than the notion of being a major novelist.”

“Advertisement for Himself.” Snippet by Jennifer Greenstein. Brill’s Content, April, 40. provided a blurb for a book, Passionate Sex: Discover the Special Power in You, by Leslie Aldridge Westoff, ex-wife of Mailer’s friend John W. Aldridge. Mailer says in his blurb that he has not read her book, but “if the author delivers one-tenth of what is promised in the title, the book will be the bargain of the year.” Mailer accompanied the blurb with a note to Westoff stating that her publisher can print it or reject it but “no negotiations, please.”

“Haven’t We Seen You Somewhere Before? Norman Mailer’s Visit to Hay.” Article-interview by John Walsh. The Independent, 5 June. Internet. Breezy article about the participants in the annual Hay-on-Wye Literary Festival in Wales. is described as “the Brooklyn roustabout, the Goliath of sexism, the Beelzebub of vanity.” He is quoted on Hemingway, from whom, he said, “I got a notion that went deep into me. I won’t evade the imagery here. I was penetrated by his influence.” Asked if he liked women any better these days, he said that he thought them to be “the finest thing in creation” until the Women’s Movement started, “and I realized they were no better than men—as nasty, as competitive, as ugly.” At the end, he signed books for an hour and was “nice to everybody. Absolutely no side to him,” said one participant.
