VuFind Developers Call Minutes: November 1, 2011

Agenda

1. New/Updated JIRA Tickets

  • VUFIND-240 - It is now much easier to use the KStemmer since it is packaged with Solr 3.4, so the ticket has been updated to reflect this.
  • VUFIND-260 - Now that the Solr 3 update is complete, this ticket has been closed.
  • VUFIND-276 - Luke has once again provided an update to his feedback patch.
  • VUFIND-454 - Demian has updated his website indexing patch to work with Solr 3.4.
  • VUFIND-465 - Servilio submitted a fix to a minor flaw in HMAC processing in the new hold-placing code; it has been committed.
  • VUFIND-466 - This is a reminder to investigate using the Extended DisMax handler now that we have updated to Solr 3.
  • VUFIND-467 - This is a reminder to investigate using Xincludes for more flexible Solr local configuration now that we have updated to Solr 3.
  • VUFIND-468 - This patch provides integration with the Flickr API.
  • VUFIND-469 - This ticket requests more configurable date/time displays; now that we have the VuFindDate object, this should be relatively easy to achieve.
  • VUFIND-470 - This ticket requests the elimination of a hard-coded base URL in the config.ini file; that need will be addressed by VuFind 2.0, but if anyone wants to patch 1.x in the meantime, feel free to post a fix here.

2. Solr 3.x Update

The VuFind trunk is now using Solr 3.4. If you have time, please check out the latest trunk, reindex your records, and report any problems you encounter. So far, the transition appears to be fairly seamless.

3. VuFind 2.0 Update

VuFind 2.0 is now subject to continuous integration. Chris has done a lot of work on improving style compliance, and Demian has continued slowly implementing missing features.

4. SciVerse Template App

Demian has finished working with Elsevier to develop a template app for embedding VuFind results inside their SciVerse platform. If your library uses SciVerse and would like to integrate with your VuFind instance, visit this page and click the contact link to customize the template app for your local needs.

5. New Mobile Theme

The jQuery mobile files have been updated to the latest version.

6. Cart Functionality

7. Other Topics?

Next Call

The next call will be Tuesday, November 15, 2011 at 11am Eastern Standard Time (GMT - 5:00). Note that the time has changed from Daylight to Standard in the Eastern zone, so if you are in another time zone, the meeting time may be different for you!
