VuFind Developers Call Minutes: January 6, 2014

Attending: Karen Coombs, Chris Delis, Anna Headley, Demian Katz

Agenda

1. Development Updates

JIRA Tickets

  • VUFIND-1018 - This ticket is resolved; VuFind now has a configurable option to activate bulk options (export/save/etc.) on all search results. This is off by default to keep the interface uncluttered.
  • VUFIND-1064 - This ticket (now resolved) offers improved currency code configuration options in config.ini.
  • VUFIND-1065 - This ticket tracks the issue that the export logic currently uses the same value as both a unique identifier for export formats AND the display label for those formats. We should probably separate the label from the ID for improved configurability/localization.

Pull Requests

  • #259, #265 - merged - bug fixes related to recently added hierarchical facet functionality
  • #260 - merged - improvements to the OAI server
  • #261 - merged - typo fix
  • #262 - in progress - This contains Demian's first pass at resolving VUFIND-1062, currently pending review/comments from Anna.
  • #263 - merged - fix for VUFIND-1063 (changed the way messages are displayed after placing a hold).
  • #264 - merged - translation updates
  • #266, #273 - merged - Symphony driver fixes/improvements.
  • #267 - merged - a simple alternate use for the hierarchy fields to track parent-child relationships.
  • #268, #271 - merged - MultiBackend ILS driver improvements.
  • #269 - closed - apparently opened by accident
  • #270 - merged - relaxed XML detection logic in MARC record driver
  • #272 - merged - fixed some problems in the storage retrieval request forms

2. Development Planning

Call Number Normalization

WorldCatDiscovery / OCLC Web Services Update

3. Other Topics?
