Agenda

1. Development Updates

JIRA Tickets

  • VUFIND-299 - Thanks to Chris' efforts, the advanced search screen now works without Javascript enabled in the Bootstrap3 theme.
  • VUFIND-905 - Chris' improved tagging interface has been merged to master, which resolves this ticket – users are now able to delete their own tags.
  • VUFIND-1105 - This ticket contains some discussion of a possible alphabrowse/call number issue; Tod is currently investigating.
  • VUFIND-1106 / VUFIND-1107 - These tickets share a makefile for compiling LESS files in a different way; this may be useful for some people. VUFIND-1106 is an accidental duplicate and has been closed.
  • VUFIND-1108 - This ticket reports a bug in the TranslatorAwareTrait that was addressed by PR #336.

2. Development Planning

Call Number Normalization

Improved Author Indexing

Demian has been reviewing VUFIND-542, the JIRA ticket addressing more flexible representation of authors in VuFind. He plans on adapting this to a PR for VuFind 2 but would appreciate input from others.

Solr Upgrade?

Demian has updated pull request #306 to the latest Solr 4 version (4.10.4).

Permissions

Demian sent a proposal to the mailing list but has received no feedback yet.

3. Other Topics?

Demian upgraded the wiki to improve security; he also reset most of the user accounts due to the high number of spammer accounts present in the system. Please re-register if you find yourself unable to log in.
