VuFind Developers Call Minutes: June 12, 2012

Attending:

Agenda

1. New/Updated JIRA Tickets

  • VUFIND-585 - A patch to address Koha security concerns has been posted here.
  • VUFIND-591 - A patch for applying hidden filters to “more like this” and standard record lookup has been posted here.

2. VuFind 2.0 Update

Demian has updated the Phing build script so that VuFind 2's unit tests can be run using either MySQL or PostgreSQL; this should allow us to better maintain cross-database compatibility. Currently all unit tests pass for both databases, but it is possible to find some PostgreSQL-specific problems by manually interacting with the software. We need to improve our test coverage in order to catch all of these problems; Demian and Chris will work on this.

The jquerymobile theme has been completely ported over and also significantly extended.

The statistics code is making significant progress.

Demian has begun porting the remaining ILS drivers.

Demian has renamed the version number for the initial 2.0 release (due July 2) from “2.0RC1” to “2.0alpha.” Since this initial release is not going to closely resemble the final 2.0 release (due to forthcoming Zend Framework changes), it really shouldn't be called a “release candidate.” However, it will be a feature-complete model demonstrating many of the characteristics of the new VuFind version; it just shouldn't be used in production until it's a bit closer to its final shape!

Demian and Ere had some recent email conversations about version control. Demian is now considering turning on Git in Sourceforge and using that for VuFind 2 development in parallel with Subversion for 1.x. Feedback on this idea is welcome.

3. New Mobile Theme

4. VuFind Developers Summit 2012

5. VuFind Hierarchical Collections Update

6. Open Data / Shared Central Index
