RELEASE NOTES
|
|
=============
|
|
This version of Koha is the second in the 2.0 "stable" series.
|
|
It does not mean that it has no bugs, but many libraries are using it and don't encounter unsolvable problems.
|
|
If you want to adopt Koha, please do, but you're warned that this release candidate version may still have some bugs and missing features.
|
|
If you test it and let us know about any we haven't seen yet, it will help us to fix them.
|
|
|
|
The 2.0.x series version is "feature freezed". Only bugs or minor changes will be made in this branch.
|
|
The koha team is already working on the 2.2.x version. In CVS (HEAD branch), developpers can already get 1st draft of a working z3950 server.

|
|
* 614 : opac-user.pl doesn't show which items are waiting
|
|
* 625 : dateformat under system prefs is confusing
|
|
* 646 : Member flag must be either 'parameters' or 'superlibrarian' to log in (now, any flag enable login)
|
|
* 662 : poor SQL calls, that could be used for SQL injection (security problem)

|
|

|
|
* bug fixed in MARC editor, that appeared on specific MARC configuration & makes biblio adding impossible.
|
|
|
|
|
|
IMPROVEMENTS:
|
|
* z3950 client daemon improved a lot : many deadlock situations solved, improved problem reporting, ignoring invalid z3950 servers (or server not responding)
|
|
* new french translation. Note that only english and french are up to date. Other won't work, probably. Note also that a tool for translator is now ready, and should ease a lot translating and maintaining translations.
|
|
* new OPAC theme. it's called "css". It's a XHTML1.0 strict OPAC. In librarian interface, just change systempref opactheme to css to get it. Will be the default opac in 2.2
|
|
* publisher added in acquisition process (the one with basket & supplier) Basket now ordered by publisher.
|
|
* notforloan field management added in itemtype administration screen
|
|
* new migration script : misc/rebuildthesaurus.pl => this script can rebuild thesaurus/authority file after importing records with misc/bulkmarcimport.pl
|
|
|
|
DB change :
|
|
*index added into z3950results table UNIQUE KEY query_server (queryid,server) (added by installer & updater)
|
|
|
|
KNOWN BUGS :
|
|
* MARC upload fails silently (in breeding farm) if the file provided is not iso2709 (works fine with a valid file)
|
|
* autobarcode not calculated even if autobarcode system parameter is set and MARC=on.
|
|
* the MARC21 english default parameter setup is working, but some librarians reports that some choices are poor. If you use MARC21, tweak some setups to fit your needs.
