dbs / csharp: Added a comment to bug 1267129. However, as I was thinking it through, I came to the same conclusion I always come to when looking at the "Matches Exactly" option. It's just a terrible search option to use because the user need to know exactly how the title was added, along with any punctuation that was used. |

It seems like you're more likely to have a failed search using that option than you are to have a successful search. |

has also never been a big fan of having the Matches Exactly and Starts With searches available when "Keyword" can be selected since those searches will probably always fail. |

FWIW I agree as well. |

So can we rip those two search options out of the advanced search page then? Of course, after sending the suggestion along to the Evergreen general list for feedback. |
11:42 |
RoganH |
I would vote yes to ripping both out. |
11:43 |
RoganH |
I think there is a population that thinks they will be useful and they will be wrong and frustrated trying to use them and then they think the software doesn't work right. |
11:43 |
kmlussier |
Two of our consortia have already removed them locally, and I suppose it could remain a local customization, but I think it eventually leads to bug reports because they lead to so many failed searches. |

Is there a piece of glue that I am not aware of that teaches the action triggers about "marklongtermoverdue" - I am troubleshooting an action trigger to do that to items that are overdue 28 days - 29 days.

wonders if "gone girl" (without quotes) results in the desired Gone Girl being one of the top hits out of the 208 elaine mentioned. because if it is, then i don't much care if there are 207 other hits, personally |

#1 hit on GA PINES |

(for a default keyword search). Seems fine to me |

hrm. 2.5.1 client at a busy circ desk seems to reliably "freeze" around the same time every day. connecting just now, staff client was using somewhere between 1 and 2 gigabytes of memory, and was hovering at about 50% CPU (may have been pegging a core) |

16:52 |

That reminds me of a question I had about webby last week. I know it's available in preview mode for 2.7. Is it the hope/plan to have webby circ available for production use in 2.next? |
16:54 |
RoganH |
We chatted about that a bit last week. I think there was hesitation to call it "production ready" in 2.next as that might imply certain things for certain users. |
16:55 |
RoganH |
With that said I'm going to put it into production and see what we see. |
16:55 |

this agenda item says it'll be the default when 2.8 is released! [kidding! not official fact!] |

Succeed or fail I'd rather learn from it while folks can fall back on the xul client. |
16:56 |
kmlussier |
The thing is, until people start using it at a live circ desk, we won't really know what all the bugs are, no matter how well we test it. |
16:56 |
bshum |
kmlussier: I'd be reluctant to call webby production ready till we've got more modules done for inter-related workflows. |
16:56 |
bshum |
Basic circ, sure. But people need to often do more. |
16:57 |
kmlussier |
bshum: Sure, but I can think of many libraries that have workstations that are primarily circ only. |
16:57 |
bshum |
People can decide to try and use what they can get. I'm sure we will too. |
16:57 |
RoganH |
kmlussier: precisely, my front desk circ machines I think will be able to use it. Back room no but that's ok. |
16:57 |
kmlussier |
And those tend to be the circ workstations that are also very busy and likely to freeze. |
16:58 |
bshum |
And we did talk about back porting bug fixes through to 2.7 for circ as needed. |
16:58 |
RoganH |
bshum: but not further than 2.7, right? |
16:59 |
bshum |
As 2.7 maintainer, that's on my watch. |
16:59 |
kmlussier |
bshum: Well, I don't think we'll be using webby in production for 2.7 anyway, so that's a good thing. |
16:59 |
bshum |
Correct, nothing prior to 2.7. And we won't backport cataloging to 2.7 |
17:00 |
bshum |
kmlussier: do you really expect the circ client to change *that* much between 2.7 and 2.8 other than us removing the "preview" warning from the notes though? |
17:01 |
bshum |
Seems to me we are more likely to just see more incremental fixes on the existing structure. |
17:01 |
kmlussier |
bshum: The circ web client? Based on the bug reports I'm submitting, I expect to see a big difference in fixes from 2.7.0 to 2.8.0 |
17:01 |
bshum |
So why wouldn't 2.7's circ module be usable in that sense for a circ-only world? Kll |
17:01 |
kmlussier |
Obviously, it will get better as we move along in 2.7 |
17:01 |
* bshum |
shrugs |
17:02 |
bshum |
Bug reports = stuff for backport. |
17:02 |
bshum |
So maybe 2.7.0 isn't production ready. |
17:03 |
bshum |
Oh well, anyways |

Maybe we should just call it a perpetual beta and just go with it. :) |

since the report is "always around the same time", i'm guessing that a periodic restart of the client will be a useful preventative measure. |
