1.4
- In-database localization for 1.4… we're almost there for seed values; Dan (or some minion) just needs to munge the seed data to include explicit primary key values
- Conify (pretty administration interface) is done, but still needs i18n support
- Circulation rules configuration interface still needs to be written
- Credit card payments is about 85% done on the backend
- Multi-source Z39.50 interface is done
- Need to move configuration into database (and expand it to include transmission format / record format) - but may push that to 2.0 because it needs a Conify interface
- Pre-overdue is done (needs a bit more testing); Indiana may field-test this pre-1.4
- SRU server is there, for some basic definition of there
- Push index definition interface past 1.4.0
- Push SRU access point definition interface past 1.4.0 (they're related)
- Simple2Zoom-based Z39.50 server for 1.4.0 - official statement will be that it theoretically works, but is largely untested (Dan has yaz 3.0.34 installed on Conifer servers and will eventually get around to trying this if no-one else does)
- Publication date filtering: Bill is opening a ticket to add a UI
- Default preferred-language setting for searches:
- need to add locale to the cache key to avoid getting cache hits that match other locales
- also need to add locale to the explicit parameter list
- Vandelay importer/exporter:
- front-end will be fairly enormous
- will start basic and build up
- Graham Fawcett should be starting real soon now, we'll get Bill to mentor him as he implements the first bits of Vandelay
- User locale preference:
- berick will create as an aus, fall back to aous if not set, fall back to global default
- miker will reuse this for default preferred-language setting
- User-initiated "forgot my password" - demo code from code4lib preconference still needs to be cleaned up (i18n template, prevent bulk resets) before we can integrate this into core
- Staff client localization:
- Setting locale preference (Jason and Dan):
- Need to reload chrome (check to see what happens with state)
- Set locale for mod_xmlent based on some header
- Dojo-ization of dates/numbers/currencies/times
- dojo.config.locale in RemoteRequest.js - Dan - be more defensive (may eventually bundle Dojo with staff client, but let's just get this fixed)
- Staff client on recent versions of XULRunner
- 1.9 has been deemed stable now, so Jason wants to start making Evergreen staff client work with it - although it doesn't like self-signed certificates at all
- Broken entities in trunk (!) - Dan to look into, please funnel reports this-a-way
- Will integrate a Dojo build for performance into the 1.4.0 tarball, look into layers thereafter for further optimization
- 1.4 RC release for September is on target
- institute a string freeze for translation purposes as part of the RC
2.0
- Academic reserves
- This is high priority for Conifer, even higher priority than serials and acquisitions from some perspectives
- Dan has a (new) October 15th deadline for finishing a code4lib journal article about writing the academic reserves functionality for Evergreen, so there's some good pressure from that front
- EDI
- Conifer will direct some funds to a consulting company to get mo/better JSON-EDI roundtripping
