== Biblio.pm cleaning (useless) ==
* some sub declaration dropped
* removed modbiblio sub
* removed moditem sub
* removed newitems. It was used only in finishrecieve. Replaced by a Koha2Marc+AddItem, that is better.
* removed MARCkoha2marcItem
* removed MARCdelsubfield declaration
* removed MARCkoha2marcBiblio
== Biblio.pm cleaning (naming conventions) ==
* MARCgettagslib renamed to GetMarcStructure
* MARCgetitems renamed to GetMarcItem
* MARCfind_frameworkcode renamed to GetFrameworkCode
* MARCmarc2koha renamed to TransformMarcToKoha
* MARChtml2marc renamed to TransformHtmlToMarc
* MARChtml2xml renamed to TranformeHtmlToXml
* zebraop renamed to ModZebra
== MARC=OFF ==
* removing MARC=OFF related scripts (in cataloguing directory)
* removed checkitems (function related to MARC=off feature, that is completly broken in head. If someone want to reintroduce it, hard work coming...)
* removed getitemsbybiblioitem (used only by MARC=OFF scripts, that is removed as well)
Uses a complete new ZEBRA Indexing.
ZEBRA is now XML and comprises of a KOHA meta record. Explanatory notes will be on koha-devel
Fixes UTF8 problems
Fixes bug with authorities
SQL database major changes.
Separate biblioograaphic and holdings records. Biblioitems table depreceated
etc. etc.
Wait for explanatory document on koha-devel
actually existed; so if there was no isbn, and the issn was blank,
the item would be assigned a random biblionumber and the breeding farm
would report that the item already exists in the catalog (even though
it didn't). This fix adds a check to determine whether the imported
record has an issn before assigning a matching biblionumber.
z3950 search and import seems to works fine.
Let me explain how :
* a "search z3950" button is added in the addbiblio template.
* when clicked, a popup appears and z3950/search.pl is called
* z3950/search.pl calls addz3950search in the DB
* the z3950 daemon retrieve the records and stores them in z3950results AND in marc_breeding table.
* as long as there as searches pending, the popup auto refresh every 2 seconds, and says how many searches are pending.
* when the user clicks on a z3950 result => the parent popup is called with the requested biblio, and auto-filled
Note :
* character encoding support : (It's a nightmare...) In the z3950servers table, a "encoding" column has been added. You can put "UNIMARC" or "USMARC" in this column. Depending on this, the char_decode in C4::Biblio.pm replaces marc-char-encode by an iso 8859-1 encoding. Note that in the breeding import this value has been added too, for a better support.
* the marc_breeding and z3950* tables have been modified : they have an encoding column and the random z3950 number is stored too for convenience => it's the key I use to list only requested biblios in the popup.
