I didn't implement a way for patrons to get their advance notices and other
messages through RSS, so I'm removing it from the list of available transport types.
This will cause the "RSS" column in the patron messasging pages to be
unavailable. When we implement RSS, we can add it back in and the checkboxes will return.

I added three fields to the message_queue table:
- to_address
- from_address
- content_type: necessary to hold email header for attachments
I changed one field in message_queue:
- borrowernumber can now be NULL for messages sent to the admin
These can be used to override the default addresses used. By default, emails are sent to
the borrowers.email address and sent from the KohaAdminEmailAddress syspref address. These
values are still used if the to_address or from_address values are NULL. These changes
are necessary to let overdue_notices.pl be backwards compatible.

Corrected two errors found in the authority types used
in the MARC21 frameworks:
* one subfield that used "Meeting Name" instead of "MEETI_NAME"
* various subfields that used "CORP0_NAME" instead of "CORPO_NAME"
The biggest visible consequence of this change is that corporate
name headings (110, 610, 710, 810, etc.) will now link correctly
to their authority records.
In addition, brought the fr-FR MARC21 framework scripts up-to-date
with respect to the changes made to the English versions.
No documentation changes.

The first new table is branch_borrower_circ_rules.
This table is used to store circulation rule attributes
that apply to a combination of patron category and branch
across all item types. The one attribute defined is
maxissueqty, which sets the maximum number of loans
that a patron of a given category can take out at a given
branch.
Note that branch_borrower_circ_rules is for attributes
that apply across all item types. This means that
issuingrules.maxissueqty has a different meaning: it is
the maximum number of loans per branch, category, and item type;
if issuingrules.itemtype is '*', that is a *default*
circulation rule used if no more specific rule is found.
The new table will allow the implementation of total
loan limit across item types without making the wildcard
'*' in issuingrules ambiguous. Specifically, if branchcode,
categorycode, or itemtype is issuingrules is '*', that will now
always mean a loan rule to be applied if a more specific rule cannot be found.
Setting issuingrules.itemtype to '*' will no longer mean
to set a total limit across item types for maxissueqty.
The remaining new tables are used to store default
rules for the default branch, the default patron category,
or both:
default_branch_circ_rules - for a given branch, specify
the rule to apply if no more specific rule on
branch and patron category is found (i.e. patron category is default)
default_borrower_circ_rules - for a given patron category,
specify the rule to apply if no more specific rule
on branch patron category is found (i.e., branch is default)
default_circ_rules - global default if no more specify rule
on patron category and branch is available. Note that this
table is constructed so that it can have at most
one row.

For documentation, please indicate that as part of profiling,
staff can refer to the AdvancedSearchTypes system preference to
choose where to draw the advanced search 'Types' from. Currently
this is implemented as a choice, between itemtypes and ccodes,
but it's been designed to work with any authorised value so long
as an index exists for searching by that authorised value.
By default, and if this syspref doesn't exist, it will pull from
itemtypes as before.

Added two tables and system preference to support
a new patron alternate ID and attributes feature.
A patron attribute (or extended patron attribute) is an
additional piece of information associated with a patron
record. Each attribute has a type that specifies
whether the attribute is repeatable, can serve as
a unique identifier, can take a password, and
whether it can be used to search for patron records
in the staff interface.
The list of attribute types is controlled by the
superlibrarian. Once an attribute type is defined,
values for that attribute can be added to the patron record
via the staff interface or the batch patron import.
Two uses of extended attributes are:
- defining additional unique identifiers, such as
a campus student ID number, a library staff
HR number, and so on. These IDs can be used
for searching or matching and overlaying records
during a batch import.
- additional statistical categories. For example,
a library could define an attribute type for
tracking the academic major of a student patron.
Any number of attributes of this sort could be
defined.
The extended attributes feature is completely optional. If
the new syspref, ExtendPatronAttributes, is OFF, the patron
attributes tables will be ignored; it will not be possible
to display, edit, search for, or match on extended
attributes.
The tables are:
[1] borrower_attribute_types - store attribute types
defined by the administrator.
- code
- description
- repeatable (whether a patron record can have
more than value of a given attribute type)
- unique_id (whether values of this type
must be unique within the database)
- opac_display (whether values of this type
can display in the patron details page in the OPAC)
- staff_searchable (whether values of this type
can be used to retrieve patron records in circulation)
- password_allowed (if set, staff patron editor will
allow a password to be associated with a value; this
is mostly a hook for functionality to be implemented
in the future.
- authorised_value_category (code of an authorised_value
category. If one is specified, the staff patron
editor will use a dropdown for setting values of this type)
[2] borrower_attributes - the actual attributes.
- code (attribute type code, FK)
- borrowernumber (link to patron, FK)
- attribute (the value)
- password (password associated with value)

columns or index names.

The following missing columns were added:
deletedbiblioitems.marcxml
deleteditems.itype
The 080 DB rev is specifically for syncing the schema
for users of 3.0-alpha, 3.0-beta, and 3.0-beta2, and should
be a no-op for anybody who has followed git HEAD for
the past few months:

Removed the categorytable, mediatypetable, and subcategorytable
tables. These three tables appear to be from an incomplete
patch from pre-git that defined these tables to implement
additional search limits, and are not present in the 2.2.9
package. In 3.0, these tables did nothing - the only code that
referred to them are incomplete admin editors that lack HTML
templates and are not referred to anywhere.
The updatedatabase.pl logic to remove these tables is conservative;
the tables are dropped only if they exist and are all empty. Effectively,
this means that they'll be dropped if you've been running a fresh install
of 3.0 from git or the alphas or betas; if you've upgraded your database
from 2.2.9, these tables likely weren't in your database to begin with.

Enhanced the ability of catalogers to specify how
bib and item records should be added, replaced, or
ignored during a staging import.
When an import batch of bib records is staged and commit,
the user can now explicitly specify what should occur
when an incoming bib record has, or does not have, a match
with a record already in the database. The options are:
if match found (overlay_action):
create_new (just add the incoming record)
replace (replace the matched record with the incoming one)
use_template (option not implemented)
ignore (do nothing with the incoming bib; however, the
items attached to it may still be processed
based on the item action)
if no match is found (nomatch_action):
create_new (just add the incoming record)
ignore (do nothing with the incoming bib; in this
case, any items attached to it will be
ignored since there will be nothing to
attach them to)
The following options for handling items embedded in the
bib record are now available:
always_add (add the items to the new or replaced bib)
add_only_if_match (add the items only if the incoming bib
matches an existing bib)
add_only_if_add (add the items only if the incoming bib
does *not* match an existing bib)
ignore (ignore the items entirely)
With these changes, it is now possible to support the following use cases:
[1] A library joining an existing Koha database wishes to add their
items to existing bib records if they match, but does not want
to overlay the bib records themselves.
[2] A library wants to load a file of records, but only handle
the new ones, not ones that are already in the database.
[3] A library wants to load a file of records, but only
handle the ones that match existing records (e.g., if
the records are coming back from an authority control vendor).
Documentation changes:
* See description above; also, screenshots of the 'stage MARC records
for import' and 'manage staged MARC records' should be updated.
Test cases:
* Added test cases to exercise staging and committing import batches.
UI changes:
* The pages for staging and managing import batches now have
controls for setting the overlay action, action if no match,
and item action separately.
* in the manage import batch tool, user is notified when they
change overlay action, no-match action, and item action
* HTML for manage import batch tool now uses fieldsets
Database changes (DB rev 076):
* added import_batches.item_action
* added import_batches.nomatch_action
* added 'ignore' as a valid value for import_batches.overlay_action
* added 'ignored' as a valid value for import_records.status
* added 'status' as a valid value for import_items.status
API changes:
* new accessor routines for C4::ImportBatch
GetImportBatchNoMatchAction
SetImportBatchNoMatchAction
GetImportBatchItemAction
SetImportBatchItemAction
* new internal functions for C4::ImportBatch to
determine how a given bib and item are to be
processed, based on overlay_action, nomatch_action,
and item_action:
_get_commit_action
_get_revert_action

This patch adds the ability to associate icon images with authorized values.
They're not displayed anywhere yet, though. There's also a database update
in here. I took version "3.00.00.075", but I can change that later if it gets
taken before I commit these patches.
DOCUMENTATION CHANGES: When you add or edit authorized values, you can now
associate image icons with them. These icons come from the same icon sets
that you can have with your itemtypes, such as media type. They don't show

First big commit in a project to add more granular
staff user permissions to Koha.
* Created two new database tables
permissions:
stores a list of defined permissions; each
permission is to be interpreted as a child
of a top-level permission defined in the
existing user flags. For example, Tools (bit 13)
now has a separate sub-permission for each
individual tool.
The columns are
module_bit = FK referencing userflags.bit
code = code, e.g., import_patrons
description = e.g., "Import patron data"
user_permissions:
stores a list of the specific permissions that
a staff user actually has. For example, if
staff user 123 has only the 'import_patrons' subpermission
of 'Tools' (module_bit = 13), that would be represented
by having (123, 13, 'import_patrons' in user_permissions.
user_permissions and borrowers.flags are now interpreted
as follows (assuming the CheckSpecificUserPermissions syspref
is ON):
* If the appropriate bit (e.g., bit 13 for Tools) is set
in borrowers.flags, the staff user can access all
Tools functions. There should be no rows in user_permissions
for that staff user and userflag bit combination.
* If the bit is not set in borrowers.flags, but one or
more rows are present in user_permissions for that
staff user and bit combination, the staff user can
access the specified sub-functions.
* If the bit is not set in borrower.flags and there are
no rows in user_permissions for that staff user and
bit combination, the user cannot access any of the functions.
Note that this means that if a staff user can access all
functions for a module (because the bit is set in borrowers.flags),
the user will automatically be able access any new subfunctions
added to permissions by a database update.
The columns are:
borrowernumber = FK referencing borrowers.borrowernumber
module_bit, code = FK referencing permissions
* Added a new system preference, CheckSpecificUserPermissions
If this system preference is ON, staff users can be assigned
specific permissions which will be respected during
authorization checks. If this system preference is OFF, the
current userflags semantics will continue to apply.
* Defined sub-permissions for Tools. The list of specific
tools permissions is now:
edit_news Write news for the OPAC and staff interfaces
label_creator Create printable labels and barcodes from catalog and patron data
edit_calendar Define days when the library is closed
moderate_comments Moderate patron comments
edit_notices Define notices
edit_notice_status_triggers Set notice/status triggers for overdue items
view_system_logs Browse the system logs
inventory Perform inventory (stocktaking) of your catalogue
stage_marc_import Stage MARC records into the reservoir
manage_staged_marc Manage staged MARC records, including completing and reversing imports
export_catalog Export bibliographic and holdings data

1. Delete the system preference: AmazonDevKey (AmazonDevKeys used
with AmazonECS 3.0 are no longer valid)
2. Add the system preferences: AmazonLocale, AWSAccessKeyID
NOTE: steps 1, 2 are done by the web installer
3. Verify your AWSAccessKeyID:
You may already have an Access Key ID. You can access your Access
Key ID by going to http://aws.amazon.com, pointing to Your Web
Services Account, then clicking View Access Key Identifiers.
Depending on when you signed up for ECS 3.0, you may need to
re-register for an AWS account, which includes an Access Key ID.
4. Enter your AWSAccessKeyID in the Koha syspref called
AWSAccessKeyID
