09:24 Stompro Good morning all, can anyone point me to documentation on setting up a multi brick install?  Or answer some general questions about it?  Does each brick run everything that a stand alone system runs except for the DB?  So each brick runs ejabberd stand alone so to speak?
09:24 csharp Stompro: correct
09:24 mmorgan joined #evergreen
09:25 tsbere I will note that the ejabberd instances need to be able to communicate with one another if you are load balancing between bricks.
09:25 csharp Stompro: a "brick" originally was a "head" which runs apache and 2 "drones" that ran OpenSRF. In our case they were connected by putting /openils on an NFS share shared between the three servers
09:26 tsbere Stompro / csharp: Also, don't you need a common memcache normally?
09:26 Stompro So each brick can be setup with the private opensrf domains like step 7 in the instructions?  http://tinyurl.com/k5twkbp
09:26 Stompro Err, that would be a no.
09:26 csharp tsbere: yep - in our case, we have two non-redundant memcache servers
09:27 tsbere Stompro: I think you will want thinks like private.brick1/public.brick1, private.brick2/public.brick2, etc so they can be set up to communicate with one another.
09:28 csharp Stompro: it's been several years since I actually set up a head + drones brick - we've been running on single-server "bricks" (though technically that's now a misnomer)
09:28 csharp i.e., if it's one server, it's no longer a "brick" ;-)
09:29 tsbere Stompro: I suppose each brick needs potential access to shared storage for things like reporter output, uploading offline circs, etc. I have never set up a "multi-brick" setup so I am not 100% sure what is needed there.
09:29 tsbere csharp: Why can't a single server be a "brick"?
09:30 csharp fwiw, GenaSYS (the cluster build system we use at GPLS/PINES) does the head + drone setup automatically: http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=co​ntrib/pines/genasys.git;a=summary
09:30 Dyrcona Well, if you think about, a single server would be a brick, if you look at "brick" as an atomic unit of build materials.
09:30 Dyrcona A cluster of bricks would be well, bricks.
09:30 csharp tsbere: it can be, but I know the term "brick" was originally used to refer to multiple servers acting as a single entity
09:31 Dyrcona But maybe that's just from doing masonry and carpentry work as a teanager/young adult.
09:32 csharp I'm not sure the term "brick" would have been used if each what-is-now-known-as-"brick" had been a single server
09:32 Dyrcona Well, just don't brick your bricks. :)
09:32 csharp that's all academic though - we still name our servers "brick01-head", etc.
09:33 Dyrcona Or bh1 and bh2 as I've seen at one site.
09:34 Dyrcona S'pose you could consider 1 physical server a "brick" if you're running all the pieces on vms on that server....
09:34 Dyrcona Meh. Words.
09:35 csharp right ;-)
09:37 Dyrcona Speaking of building VMs.... I'm going to build two today to test csharp's changes for Safe.pm.
09:37 csharp it's also worth considering that virtual machines have become dominant enough that it's worth reconsidering cluster architecture
09:37 yboston joined #evergreen
09:37 Stompro Thanks for the info all.
09:38 Dyrcona Yeah, we're buying 5 machines next week and we're considering a couple of different configurations.
09:38 csharp awitter has been experimenting with glusterfs as a way to share a single /openils across a row of app servers
09:39 csharp but we don't have anything like that beyond a bare prototyping phase
09:40 Dyrcona We were looking at running a master ejabberd with slaves (not sure that
09:40 Dyrcona 's the term they use).
09:42 eeevil so, as the guy what coined the term "brick" WRT evergreen and pines I can say that, originally, it meant "a unit of Evergreen that is self contained and can be a load balancing member" ;) ... but, definitions change, of course
09:44 eeevil the reason for head+drone was that, when CPUs were slower and RAM was smaller, it was a GoodThing(tm) to separate apache from opensrf, as they have,  um, competing and non-complementary resource profiles
09:45 csharp eeevil++
09:48 eeevil (and, IMO, it's still a GoodThing(tm) to separate applications with competing resource profiles onto separate servers/VMs/containers/whatever ... but that's not special to evergreen, it's just ye ol' proper resource allocation)
09:50 mmorgan Quick web client question anyone? Do I need to be registered to a workstation to login?
09:50 mmorgan Have a meeting in 10 minutes
09:50 * csharp was able to log into webby without first setting up a workstation
09:51 mmorgan Screen is just refreshing at the login page. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
09:51 kmlussier mmorgan: You can log in without a workstation, but last I saw there were some bugs that appeared if you did not register a workstation.
09:51 kmlussier mmorgan: What browser are you in?
09:51 mmorgan Tried FF and Chrome
09:52 * kmlussier wishes there was a way to require workstation registration in the web client.
09:53 * mmorgan does too, but right now, I'd love to login. Different computer that hasn't logged into it before.
09:53 * csharp thinks it should use a similar mechanism to the selfcheck, which prompts you to register one when you first log in
09:53 kmlussier mmorgan: Sorry! I don't have an answer. :(
09:53 csharp https://<yourhostnamehere>/eg/circ/selfcheck/main
09:54 kmlussier And I guess you can't register the workstation if you can't log in.
09:54 * kmlussier doesn't like that bit either.
09:54 Dyrcona Well, that's the same as the current staff client.
09:54 Dyrcona Your workstation is registered "locally" and in the database.
09:54 csharp mmorgan: I was able to log into webby last Thursday without a problem, but I've seen the same issue you're seeing too
09:55 RoganH joined #evergreen
09:55 Dyrcona Can't register it in the database if you can't login.
09:55 * csharp makes the excuse to his demo-ees that the server is "constantly under development"
09:55 mmorgan Oh! https!! Working now!
09:55 mmorgan Thanks all
09:55 * mmorgan runs off to meeting.
09:56 kmlussier Ah, https. That one gets us all the time.
09:57 kmlussier Dyrcona: I should restate that. It isn't so much that you have to log in. It's that there isn't a quick option to register the workstation right from the login screen.
09:58 kmlussier It just adds a few steps to the workstation registration process. Especially in those places where the login that registers the workstation isn't the same login that will be using the workstation.
09:58 Dyrcona Well, the current staff client gives you the illusion that it is done in one step, but it really isn't.
09:59 Dyrcona Anyway, I get what you're saying, and it might be nice to have it right there.
10:01 eeevil mmorgan: you don't need one to log in, but you need one for it to work correctly (sorry, just saw this)
10:01 eeevil kmlussier: I'll be making it really required soon
10:01 kmlussier eeevil++
10:02 kmlussier eeevil: You don't know how happy that makes me. :)
10:02 eeevil kmlussier: that's good because,  as you know, that's my primary motivator ;)
10:03 kmlussier eeevil: As it should be. ;)
10:25 Newziky joined #evergreen
11:05 yboston bshum: got a moment?
11:06 bshum yboston: What's up?
11:07 yboston Good morining. In a month ESI is upgrading me to 2.7, is there plans for a new point release for 2.7 anytime soon?
11:07 yboston I ask because I was going to build a new EG 2.74 VM to upgrade my custom  TPAC templates
11:08 bshum yboston: Well, in theory, the maintenance releases were scheduled for what, yesterday I think
11:08 bshum But I'll admit, I was on a plane and indisposed to cutting anything.
11:08 bshum I'm still kind of away at the moment.
11:09 yboston OK, I can wait a ouple of days if a new version should come out soonish
11:09 Dyrcona "Kind of away?"
11:09 bshum My recommendation is to build your changes on rel_2_7
11:09 yboston makes sense
11:09 bshum And store the changes as git commits
11:09 bshum So that you can quickly rebase them as necessary
11:10 Dyrcona bshum: What time is it in Hong Kong?
11:10 yboston what year is it?
11:10 bshum And copy/move the commits from rel_2_7 to whatever future based branches you need.
11:10 bshum It's still 2015 over here.
11:10 bshum Anyways...
11:10 bshum It's a twelve hour time difference.
11:10 bshum So it's 11:10 pm, Thursday April 16.
11:11 * kmlussier wonders if an Evergreen release has ever been cut from Hong Kong before.
11:11 bshum I'm in your future.
11:11 yboston bshum: thanks for the suggestions
11:12 Dyrcona bshum: yeah, let me know the winning lottery numbers, will ya? :)
11:13 csharp @quote search future
11:13 pinesol_green csharp: 1 found: #44: "<bshum> Hmm, maybe it's just me, but your..."
11:13 * bshum cracks open a fortune cookie, "Do not mistake temptation for opportunity"
11:14 csharp @quote get 44
11:14 pinesol_green csharp: Quote #44: "<bshum> Hmm, maybe it's just me, but your commits seem to be coming from my future." (added by csharp at 06:54 PM, February 20, 2013)
11:14 bshum Hahaha, love that quote :)
11:14 collum @weather hkg
11:14 pinesol_green collum: The current temperature in Hong Kong Inter-National Airport, Hong Kong is 71.6°F (11:00 PM HKT on April 16, 2015). Conditions: Scattered Clouds. Humidity: 65%. Dew Point: 62.6°F. Pressure: 29.94 in 1014 hPa (Rising).
11:15 collum Just wondering about the temperature.
11:15 bshum It is warm.
11:18 bshum kmlussier: I don't think I've ever cut a release while overseas.  But I know I've pushed git commits before.
11:26 csharp game idea: find the commits bshum pushed from overseas... GO!
11:26 Dyrcona bshum has an advantage on that one. :)
11:27 kmlussier bshum isn't allowed to play
11:27 Dyrcona csharp: Your changes for Safe.pm work for me on Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04. Events still seem to work.
11:27 csharp Dyrcona++ # awesome
11:27 Dyrcona Do you think someone else should look at the branch on Debian and/or Fedora before it is pushed to master?
11:28 csharp I would love to hear from someone running Debian wheezy
11:28 csharp I think we can assume jessie's all good if 14.04 works
11:29 Dyrcona Ok. I'll comment on the bug to that effect.
11:32 Dyrcona csharp++
11:34 bshum yboston: On a more practical note, I was thinking to cut 2.7.5 later next week; give folks some time to test and push on more bug fixes.
11:35 bshum Personally, I'm poking at more stuff for 2.8.1 though. Now that Bibliomation is on 2.8 and all.
11:35 bshum And eating food.
11:36 bshum I mean literally, every time I'm in Hong Kong, it's "hey long time no see" and "you hungry? Eat this..."
11:36 kmlussier bshum: You
11:36 kmlussier bshum: You're eating food at 11:30 PM?
11:37 bshum No, I just got back from eating "dinner"
11:37 bshum Though I'm sure there's snacks or something somewhere just waiting for me.
11:38 Dyrcona That's family...
11:48 kmlussier Bmagic: Just a thought on your two Long Overdue bugs. bug 1440148 looks like a bug fix, meaning it could potentially be in a release soon.
11:48 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1440148 in Evergreen "Long overdue Items out TPAC OPAC display My Account" (affected: 1, heat: 6) [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1440148
11:49 kmlussier And bug 1331174 looks like a new feature and won't be in a release until September at the earliest.
11:49 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1331174 in Evergreen "Long Overdue processing needs org unit settings separate from Lost Processing" (affected: 3, heat: 14) [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1331174
11:49 kmlussier So I would think we would want to sign off on the code in the first bug and get it into master.
11:49 Bmagic kmlussier: sounds like a plan to me
11:49 kmlussier And then the code from the second bug would then build off of that code.
11:50 kmlussier Bmagic: I can take a look at the first one somtime if nobody else gets to it. But I'm a bit low on tuits this week.
11:50 Bmagic The new feature, you mean, would need to be rebased on those bug fixes after they are commited?
11:52 kmlussier Bmagic: Yeah, I guess that's what I mean. I just wasn't sure if that last comment meant you were incorporating the bug fix into that branch.
11:52 Dyrcona yeah, I'm not sure what that last comment means.
11:52 * kmlussier needs to disappear for lunch.
11:53 Dyrcona I took it to mean they were incompatible.
11:53 Bmagic You can use one or the other, but not both. So if the bug fix is commited, then the code for the new feature would need to reverse that commit with it's commit. If that makes sense?
11:54 dbwells joined #evergreen
11:54 Bmagic If you look at the code change for the bug 1440148 - it's very very tiny
11:54 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1440148 in Evergreen "Long overdue Items out TPAC OPAC display My Account" (affected: 1, heat: 6) [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1440148
11:55 Bmagic So, it's not a major deal. I just noticed that long_overdue needed to be included on that line when using the new feature code
12:02 jonadab Rebasing on that commit will give you a chance to resolve that conflict in favor of reverting the unwanted change or whatever, then git rebase --continue and Robert becomes avuncular.
12:07 jeffdavis The fix for bug 1074096 was missing a piece. I have a working branch with the missing bit.
12:07 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1074096 in Evergreen "Advanced Search by Bib Call Number Returns 0 Results" (affected: 3, heat: 18) [Low,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1074096
12:08 jeffdavis The bug is marked Fix Released. I'm thinking I should change that to Triaged and retarget it at the 2.8.1 milestone, would that be the best approach in this situation?
12:10 bshum jonadab: "Robert becomes avuncular"... Hmm, "Bob's your uncle"?
12:10 * bshum wonders the origin of that saying now.
12:11 bshum jeffdavis: That's one way. Another is to file a new bug to complete it and reference the original.
12:11 dbs Robert may become avuncular, but will Dojo become Angular?
12:11 Dyrcona Avuncular often has a slightly negative connotation, as if to imply patronizing tone.
12:11 bshum dbs: That goes in the quote library :)
12:12 csharp @quote add < dbs> Robert may become avuncular, but will Dojo become Angular?
12:12 pinesol_green csharp: The operation succeeded.  Quote #113 added.
12:12 csharp @who is the quote librarian?
12:12 pinesol_green phasefx_ is the quote librarian.
12:13 jeffdavis bshum: ok, thank you. Since I've already added a comment in the original bug I won't bother creating a new one this time. :)
12:14 Dyrcona @who becomes Electra
12:14 pinesol_green chatley becomes Electra.

13:13 dbs phasefx: you permanently deleted the old "acqfest" google doc? Oh no, one part of our history is forever gone!
13:15 phasefx dbs: lemme look
13:15 montgoc1 joined #evergreen
13:18 phasefx dbs: what's the link/reference?  I don't recall deleting anything.  I see a acqfest.docx last modified in February, doesn't look to be shared (and it's not a gdoc)
13:21 dbs phasefx: it's just in my Drive "recent changes" feed
13:22 phasefx interesting.  Can you tell if it's my personal account or esi?
13:23 dbs http://i.imgur.com/6w5gRQ3.png
13:23 dbs no, nothing's clickable in the notification
13:25 phasefx looks like the image from my personal phasefx account.. nothing in my google drive trash :(
13:25 dbs Yeah, it would have been in the Drive trash bin for 10 or 30 days or whatever before being completely purged
13:25 * phasefx had been aggressively reorganizing that drive :(  sorry
13:26 phasefx work related, I've kept QA talk and receipt talk on there
13:27 dbs no real worries here, fwiw; it's just one of the first times I've seen a "permanently deleted" notification :)
13:27 * kmlussier has things in her Google drive trash from 2010
13:30 kmlussier Heh, the date on the oldest file is the day I started at MassLNC.
13:31 phasefx dbs: I think docx is it, I'll share it.  I didn't really delete stuff, just move things from my personal account to my work account, except for what I thought was publically out there like qa and receipts
13:32 * phasefx tries converting it back to a gdoc first
13:32 phasefx so for the IRC logs, acqfest.docx: https://docs.google.com/a/esilibrary.c​om/document/d/1VHLPKQtFiwEyo53Fq3G8jtf​n7XFB1f2rzvzbvuruqAI/edit?usp=sharing
13:33 phasefx has a cool picture of Dan; the real reason he brought it up :)
13:33 * kmlussier clicks the Request Access button
13:33 csharp phasefx: looks like it's locked down (at least I'm getting a "You need permission" page)
13:34 phasefx gah
13:34 phasefx so for the IRC logs, acqfest.docx: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VHLPKQtFiwEy​o53Fq3G8jtfn7XFB1f2rzvzbvuruqAI/edit?usp=sharing  ;)
13:34 csharp phasefx++
13:36 kmlussier phasefx++
13:36 kmlussier Nice pictures
13:37 phasefx with the idea of lots of copies keep things safe, we may want to throw up a digitial repository on evergreen-ils.org :)
13:37 * csharp made a personal copy too

13:41 phasefx I know what it was, I emptied my trash earlier this month.  So moved stuff over, and then deleted.  Had someone pulled up the document while it was in the trash, it would have warned that it was about to be permanently lost
13:47 csharp we may even have a copy of that on our PINES file share, come to think of it

13:59 krvmga if we have to, can we disable that format limiter?
13:59 csharp krvmga: you've seen bug 1438136, yes?

14:01 bbqben Hi all - EOB meeting starting here in two shakes
14:01 kmlussier krvmga: Is it just the All Books limiter or others as well?
14:01 krvmga gmcharlt: are you aware of this for our upgrade?
14:01 * kmlussier quickly finishes her CoC report for the EOB.
14:01 csharp kmlussier: in our case ALL THE LIMITERS
14:01 krvmga kmlussier: everything else seems to be functioning nominally
14:02 gmcharlt krvmga: in a word, yes

14:05 bbqben #topic EG2015 Conference Report
14:06 buzzy greetings from the oregon library association conference! we're in crunch time for conference planning. hopefully you all received the budget earlier today
14:06 bbqben #info http://list.evergreen-ils.org/pipermail/e​g-oversight-board/2015-April/001002.html
14:06 bbqben Hi buzzy - thx for joining us
14:06 buzzy attendance is low, unfortunately. 112 people. nonetheless, we're hoping for a great conference.
14:06 buzzy hi!
14:07 buzzy we're getting last minute sponsors in. we got two gold-level sponsorships in the last week, actually
14:07 buzzy and i'm hitting up vendors while i'm at ola
14:07 buzzy we're working on the logistics and program now, the nitty gritty details
14:08 kmlussier buzzy: I have a question about the budget you sent out earlier.
14:08 buzzy i did want to ask you guys when you'd like to have your eob meeting. we've got some rooms set aside, but if there's a particular day/time that you have the conference meeting, i'll make sure that we set it aside for you.
14:08 buzzy shoot
14:08 kmlussier The food totals there, do they reflect the food & beverage minimum?
14:09 bbqben buzzy, we set to meet 14.05.15 @ 1900 Pacific
14:09 bbqben great if we can find a space with a phone line JIC folks need to dial in
14:09 buzzy no, those are the numbers that we have based on attendance. because attendance is lower than budgeted, we'll be discussing the issue with the venue.
14:09 buzzy i
14:10 buzzy i'll check on that, bbqben
14:10 kmlussier Given that we're so close to conference time, I would like to see a worst-case scenario budget. Basically, if the venue doesn't budge on the minimum, how bad does it look?
14:10 buzzy hold please
14:10 buzzy assuming no further sponsorships?
14:11 kmlussier Also, it appears as if the budget doesn't account for all of the signed sponsorship agreements we have.
14:11 kmlussier buzzy: Yes, assuming no further sponsorships. I don't think we need to see it now if you don't have it ready, but I think it would be good to see all the numbers as they stand now.
14:12 buzzy okay. to which sponsorships are you referring?
14:12 buzzy i was somewhat rushed this morning, given the conference, so i likely missed something. i apologize
14:12 yboston #info yboston is Yamil Suarez - Berklee Colege of Music
14:13 kmlussier It looks like you just have one $4,000 Platinum sponsorship there. But I could be reading it wrong.
14:13 buzzy i will try to send out a worst case scenario budget by monday, if that's all right.
14:13 kmlussier sure
14:14 bbqben any other q's for buzzy?
14:14 bbqben great to see the shuttle lists posted
14:14 montgoc1 Yes
14:15 bbqben #action buzzy will provide worst case scenario conference budget no later than 20.04.15
14:15 bbqben buzzy++
14:16 montgoc1 On the site, the Shuttle Options still say in progress by the link.
14:16 buzzy ah, you're correct, kathy. thank you!
14:16 montgoc1 Can that get removed?
14:16 buzzy yes, i'll ask brent to handle that
14:16 montgoc1 Cool. Thanks.

14:32 bbqben #info http://list.evergreen-ils.org/pipermail/e​g-oversight-board/2015-April/000997.html
14:32 bbqben kmlussier over to you
14:32 kmlussier The committee isn't official, but the members already had the name discussion. So we've revised the proposal to call it Outreach, rather than Public Relations.
14:32 kmlussier I think we need a vote to formally accept the proposal. Sorry, I wasn't thinking of that last time around.
14:33 kmlussier The EOB is also charged with appointing members, so I think we need a vote to appoint RoganH, graced, Amy Terlaga, Ron Gagnon and me to the committee.
14:33 kmlussier That is, if you're ok with us serving on the committee.
14:33 kmlussier I think that's it.
14:33 bbqben kmlussier - thanks. Any discussion before we call these votes?
14:34 kmlussier Almost forgot. Our first real conference call is tomorrow. I'll be posting updates as we go along.

14:42 abneiman kmlussier++
14:43 yboston kmlussier++
14:43 kmlussier We've made a lot of progress on this. I think the big discussion Valerie Aurora wanted us to have was to ensure that the Safety Committee is empowered to make decisions when it comes to people in leadership positions.
14:43 kmlussier Thanks all! :)
14:43 kmlussier We've had that discussion among ourselves (ourselves being Safety Commitee and incident responders), but I just want to put it out there for the EOB to see if there were any thoughts on it.
14:44 kmlussier I think gmcharlt had an excellent idea of having people in leadership roles actually signing off on the CoC and agreeing to sanctions handed down by the Safety Committee. Appeals can be made to the EOB.
14:44 kmlussier So that's the direction we're heading.
14:45 kmlussier Now that I think of it, nearly everyone participating in the EOB meeting today  was already brought into that discussion earlier. :)
14:46 kmlussier I want to polish it a bit more. At some point, either today or via email, I think we need to appoint the Safety Committee reps.
14:46 bbqben kmlussier thanks for looping us all in
14:47 kmlussier I also would like you all to consider my recommendation that we donate $200 to the Ada Initiative as a thank you for reviewing our procedures and meeting with the people who volunteered to be incident responders.
14:47 kmlussier The Ada Initiative has done a lot of great work getting conferences to create and implement Codes of Conduct and depends on donations to keep their operations going.
14:49 yboston My only concern is making sure enough people have copies of these procedures handy during the cnference. I don't expect it would be hard to have copies of the procedures handy in the "registration area"
14:49 kmlussier yboston: They will be in the printed program.
14:49 yboston great
14:49 kmlussier I'm also planning to write a blog post ahead of time. I think we also have some time to talk about them during the Thursday morning session, before the keynote.
14:50 kmlussier I'll need to re-confirm that, though.
14:50 kmlussier I basically want everyone to see the faces of the incident responders.
14:50 kmlussier Given the time, I think we can hold off on appointing Safety Committee members and do it via email. But would we be able to vote on the donation today?
14:51 bbqben any discussion about the donation before we call a vote?
14:51 bbqben FWIW - don't see any policy/guidleines in this regard for us to be aware of, but happy to be corrected
14:53 bbqben hearing none...

14:56 graced Good afternoon
14:56 graced :)
14:56 bbqben indeed
14:56 graced We have two great proposals that the site selection committee reviewed.
14:56 Newziky joined #evergreen
14:57 graced We are ready to make a recommendation but would like to move it to a private discussion with the EOB if that is agreeable.
14:57 yboston fine with me
14:57 graced We wouldn't want the sites to find out the were selected or not selected in this IRC meeting
14:57 kmlussier I'm fine with that.
14:58 bbqben makes sense
14:58 abneiman Sounds good
14:58 graced I'm afraid I will have to ask montgoc1 to recuse himself from that discussion though since he's a proposal submitter.
14:59 montgoc1 No problem.
14:59 graced IF that is agreeable, I will follow up with an email.
14:59 graced Questions or concerns?
14:59 csharp looks like we're all in agreement on that
14:59 bbqben cool, so to confirm graced will follow up with EOB members via email
14:59 bbqben thanks to montgoc1 for bowing out on that

15:02 bbqben :)
15:02 bbqben #Topic New Business - Lanyards for EG2015 etc
15:02 bbqben graced over to you again
15:02 graced I'd like to propose that the EOB consider budgeting for (and paying for)  the new lanyards in bulk and not on a per conference basis.  Since these lanyards tie into the photography policy and will be used for many years to come it makes sense to me to budget for it and buy in bulk.
15:03 graced There isn't really a vendor sponsorship opportunity attached to it any more, so it's a known recurring expense which, to me, makes it unique. And it will be one less thing for local committees to deal with.
15:03 graced Thoughts?
15:03 bbqben graced - quantos deniros?
15:03 graced kmlussier: what were the final numbers?
15:03 abneiman I imagine it's probably far cheaper to buy in bulk, yeah?
15:03 * graced has an accomplice
15:04 kmlussier It's $1,250 to purchase 500 green, 250 yellow, 250 red.
15:04 yboston I like that it also opens up an opportunity to reuse items / reduce waste
15:04 graced abneiman, yes indeed - and most shops have minimums of 250
15:04 kmlussier As a reminder, green means it's okay to take a photo, yellow means a person must ask first, and 250 means no photos.
15:04 graced per color
15:04 bbqben graced 3750 all-in?
15:04 kmlussier With the red and yellow, we're not really seeing a savings because we're getting the minimum. There is a savings with the green.
15:05 kmlussier I expect most people will choose green.
15:05 graced $1,250 I think
15:05 kmlussier Yes, the total for all of them is $1,250
15:05 kmlussier We were thinking they could also be used for other Evergreen events, like the hack-a-way.
15:05 graced Of course we can order more and see greater savings
15:06 graced I will happily volunteer Equinox to ship the lanyards to each conference site and store them between conferences.
15:06 bbqben seems like a no-brainer. Shall we call a vote?
15:06 kmlussier Sounds good to me, but, bear in mind, I'm the accomplice. :)
15:07 csharp bbqben: yep

15:15 krvmga kmlussier: we'll have to see on monday. we may just disable All Books if it's a problem
15:15 kmlussier As far as removing the filter, I think it's a matter of going into your Coded Value Maps and removing All Books for the OPAC format group.

15:18 gmcharlt krvmga: I'm quite sure you'll be fine - there's a workable patch available for testing that can be tested on Monday before you all go fully live
15:18 krvmga gmcharlt: thanks.
15:47 Dyrcona Though krvmga has left, I have loaded the branch in question on my development server and searches with formats don't seem slower than those without.
15:48 Dyrcona IOW, it appears to have helped things.
15:55 kmlussier Dyrcona++
15:56 kmlussier If I had looked at the Ada Initiative site before the EOB meeting, I would have recommended a donation of $256 instead of $200.
15:57 Dyrcona Hah!
15:57 Dyrcona Donald Knuth used to pay that much for anyone who found "bugs" in his books, or maybe it was $2.56.
15:57 Dyrcona No one every cashes the checks, they frame them.
15:58 Dyrcona Gah. typos.
15:58 * Dyrcona hangs his head in shame.
15:58 kmlussier If it were $256, I would actively hunt down the bugs in his books.
15:58 kmlussier Dyrcona: Will you pay me $256 if I find "bugs" in your IRC posts?
15:58 Dyrcona No. :)
16:00 Dyrcona It was bugs in tex, actually. I'm buggy today.
16:09 Dyrcona And, it started at $2.56, 1 hexadecimal dollar.
