The Koha namespace is for Perl modules that meet the following mandatory
conditions:
* use "strict" and "warning" pragmata
* include valid POD
* include complete and functioning documented test cases
* not create circular dependencies
* use Object Oriented (OO) style everywhere possible
* minimize exports
* maintain mod_perl, etc. compatibility
* separate data access methods from business logic
Modules in C4 can use (and are encouraged to use) routines in
the Koha namespace. Modules in Koha should not in general use C4
modules; any C4 module that is safe to be depended on by a Koha
module is a candidate for being renamed to Koha.
The advantage of carving out a new namespace is that it doesn't
require that we refactor the entirety of C4 to support persistance or
to untangle the dependency tree. Instead, the only C4 code we would
have to reimplement for the Koha namespace right away would be
authentication, basic session management, and basic output.
(Gratuitous use made of gmcharlt's recommendations found in the
post mentioned below.)

- XSLT for the OPAC
- Value_builders for lesder, 007 and 008
- Default NORMARC framework
- Reverse MARC logic of some subs, so MARC21 is default (and works for NORMARC)
- Add NORMARC as an option to the syspref marcflavour
- Add record.abs for NORMARC
- Add NORMARC and nb as options to Makefile.PL
- Add etc/zebradb/lang_defs/nb/sort-string-utf.chr
- Copy MARC21slim2OAIDC.xsl to NORMARCslim2OAIDC.xsl
Some things are still missing, e.g.:
- XSLT for Intranet
- More MARC21slim2*.xsl transformations
working through the master branch to eliminate all
podchecker warnings/errors
Actual improvement to the quality of the POD will
come later (hopefully with assistance of others)

The Debian squeeze system has only 2.20, and the 2.21 does not
seem to be required for all tests to pass. Also, checked with
Galen Charlton and Henri-Damien LAURENT (who added the 2.21
dependency) on IRC that 2.21 did not have anything that was
required, compared to 2.20.

A tweak to restore MSWin32 installation capability.
NOTE: Native MSWin32 support in Koha is for Strawberry Perl 5.10.1.0 or later.
There are some issues with GDBM_File.pm which prevent Koha from running without a bit of
a workaround. This will be resolved in the January 2010 release of Strawberry Perl. More
can be read concerning this in the INSTALL.MSWin32 file which will be forth-coming.
NOTE: There will be several other minor changes to other portions of the Koha code base
in order to fix misc issues when Koha is installed on MSWin32.
for exemple: when you use
install_misc/environment_Makefile.PL DESTDIR=$HOME by default but koha
is installed in $HOME/koha-dev that is not expected!

Now requiring at least 0.80, the oldest version available
from CPAN, because use_ok tests were not being properly
accounted for in the test plan before 0.73. This led
to a situation where a test script containing a use_ok test
that passes running under an earlier version of Test::More
would fail under a more recent one.

After 2009-08-15, Amazon Web Services will expect that
all requests to the Product Advertising API, which is what
Koha uses for retrieving reviews and other enhanced content
from Amazon, include signatures. This patch and
subsequenct patches implement this functionality.
What this means in practice (assuming the user has elected
to use any enhanced content from Amazon) is that
[1] The user must get a Amazon Secret Access Key. This can
be done by logging in to the user's AWS account
at (e.g.) http://aws.amazon.com/, going to the 'Access Identifiers'
page, and from there retrieving and/or creating a new Secret
Access Key.
[2] The contents of the Secret Access Key should then be
entered into the new AWSPrivateKey system preference.
Once that is done, grabbing reviews and table of contents from Amazon
should work as normal. If the user doesn't do this before 2009-08-15,
reviews and TOCs will no longer be supplied from Amazon, although there
should be no crashes - the content will simply not show up.
Note that the requirement to sign requests does *NOT* appear to apply
to simply displaying book covers from Amazon.

This enhances the web installer so that messages from updatedatabase.pl will
be displayed to the user running a database update. Messages printed to STDOUT
will be displayed as the update report, while messages printed to STDERR will
be displayed as update errors.
This patch introduces a new module dependency, IPC::Cmd.
IPC::Cmd lets one run an external program such as updatedatabase.pl and easily
capture STDERR and STDOUT for further munging. IPC::Cmd is core in Perl 5.10
and stable in Perl 5.8.

As rss.pl is not a CGI script, moved it to join the
other cronjobs. Full documentation of the script
is in misc/cronjobs/rss/rss.pl, but to summarize:
[1] rss.pl is run on the command line to produce
an RSS XML document. The output should be
placed in a directory accessible to the OPAC
(or staff) web interface so that users can download
the RSS feed. An example of usage:
misc/cronjobs/rss.pl lastAcquired.conf
Normally rss.pl should be run periodically (e.g., daily)
to keep the feed up-to-date.
[2] The configuration file (e.g., lastAcquired.conf) lists
* name of the template file to use
* path of output file
* SQL query
rss.pl runs the SQL query, then feeds the output of the
query through the template to produce the output file.
[3] The template file (e.g., lastAcquired.tmpl) uses
HTML::Template syntax like any of the HTML
templates for the web interface.

Recently, there were changes to the Makefile.PL to make it install in a
DESTDIR that the OS (debian) may choose. This broke the test suite.
Since we're not installing the stuff in the t/ directory, we need to
ignore the DESTDIR specifiation before we write the test-config.txt.
So, this patch adds a call to the _strip_destdir function for all
directories written to the t/test-config.txt file.

This is the script that generates the patron and holdings database for the offline circ module. I
touched up a few parts of it:
* fixed the database syntax to squash a bug or two
* extracted some methods for readability and reuse
* added some documentation
* added a --file and --force command line argument
* made it die if DBD::SQLite is not present. That module is required for this feature.
Here's an example crontab line that will generate the borrowers.db file each midnight.
0 0 * * * create_koc_db.pl --file /tmp/borrowers.db
