 +=======Evergreen Release 1.2.0=======
 +
 +==Release date: 2007-10-08==
 +
 +[[contrib_list_1_2_0|Contributors]] (work in progress)
 +
 +====Overview====
 +
 +This release adds functionality, performance, and usability improvements, and simplifies installing and configuring, in the following areas:
 +Installing and configuring
 +
 +    * OpenSRF has been separated out into its own package. OpenSRF 0.9 is now a prerequisite for Evergreen 1.2
 +    * To ease installation on older and newer Linux distributions, either of the Net::Z3950::ZOOM or the deprecated Net::Z3950 Perl modules satisfy the Z39.50 client prerequisite
 +    * To eliminate one redundant configuration file, bootstrap.conf has been replaced throughout by opensrf_core.xml
 +
 +====Catalog====
 +
 +    * Sorting of call numbers within a location in the record details display
 +    * New default theme with generic Evergreen branding
 +    * To enable easy customization of the catalog interface:
 +         *All color elements are defined in the opac/theme/*/css/colors.css file.
 +         * All text strings are defined in the opac/locale/en-US/opac.dtd file.
 +    * Support for serving static content (images, JS, and CSS) from alternate hosts. This enables faster page loads and reduces problems from failed added-content remote services.
 +    * Search indexes no longer use a stop words list by default. A title search on "it or not" now returns "Believe it or not" if you hold that in your collection.
 +    * Field-specific search behavior exposed in the SlimPAC.  Searching of, for instance, only title proper or only main author.
 +
 +====Staff Client====
 +
 +**Cataloging**
 +
 +    * New permission to prevent importing of records with alternate TCN's
 +    * Alphabetical sorting for bucket lists
 +
 +    * Summarized item counts in Holdings Maintenance interface
 +    * Batch record deletion (i.e. remove from catalog) option in record bucket interface
 +    * Disallow editing of Owning Lib for pre-cataloged items
 +
 +**Circulation**
 +
 +    * Library filter for patron search
 +    * Filters for item in-transit list
 +    * Annotate payment for all payment types
 +    * Less strict phone numbers format in patron editor (to allow for additional information)
 +    * New collections API call for "users owing money" for collection agency
 +    * Updated collections API to support aging debt
 +    * Patron service opt-in functionality. As an optional global setting, when a patron first visits a branch, staff will be prompted to get the patron's permission to access his or her record.
 +    * Hot-key for "Re-Print Last Receipt" function
 +
 +**Miscellaneous**
 +
 +    * Ability to download files from within the staff client from the reporting interface and portal page
 +    * Various staff client performance improvements
 +    * Allow pop-up windows (and new windows) from staff client portal page and other embedded interfaces
 +    * Enable user to replace an existing file when saving a file in the staff client (for example, when saving local templates)
 +    * Friendlier error notification for actions that cause volume label collisions
 +
 +====Bug Fix Highlights====
 +
 +    * Fix item mark-lost function to prevent a prematurely closed transaction
 +    * Catch redundant barcode scans during checkout while a checkout is still processing
 +    * Fix for the %PATRON_BARCODE% macro in the bill_payment receipt template
 +    * Fix for workstation registration to disallow selection of abstract libraries like PINES as the workstation library
 +
