There are detailled release notes for the most recent versions: * http://koha-community.org/koha-3-8-0-released/ (not really nicely formatted, I agree) * http://koha-community.org/koha-3-10-0-released/ (with a PDF nicely formatted) * http://koha-community.org/koha-3-12-0-released/ ( note the PDF : http://koha-community.org/files/2013/05/Koha-3.12-release-notes.pdf ) > -Do you have a personal suggestion about differences between Koha > and Evergreen communities?

We have around 300 short and simple requirement tickets that > needs to be evaluated and a handful of process schematics. As I already said on IRC: BibLibre biggest customer is Aix Marseille university, and it runs on a 16GB / 2xquad-core / RAID5 15k disks Not a big hardware. > -Any opinions about Koha performance on a medium public library? Max > 100 000 patrons, 300 000 bibliographic records. 1 000 000 items. does not sound a problem, frankly. The only risk is pick check-in / check-out times. Here in France, public libraries have 4 times theirs weekly average activity on wed PM and sat PM. So average time is not a good measure. We've developed some nagios routine that checks that check-in check-out server time operation stays below 1second (<1s= green, 1-2s = yellow >2s red) > I feel it would be reasonable for us to change our direction if Koha > provides stable performance and the most basic functionality on all > library modules (serials, circulation, acquisitions, reporting, > notifications, templates, cataloguing, interfaces etc.). well, tell us what you need, we will tell you if Koha does it. And if you want me to come to Finland for a few days of work, don't hesitate to ask ;-) Also note that a large public library from a northern european country came here to meet 2 large french public libraries running Koha, I played the driver & guide, don't hesitate to ask as well ;-) (if you want to know who, ask privately, not sure I can share publicly) > I am yet to > analyze the architecture and code documentation, but based on the > Koha API descriptions I am feeling extremely positive. What about translation ? You can see here http://translate.koha-community.org/fi/312/ that the OPAC is 74% complete, while the staff interface is almost not done. It's not very hard to translate, and we could help you bootstraping translation. > We are targeting Q1/Q2 of 2014 for our ILS migration and are also > willing to pay for migration support for the COMMUNITY version of > Koha.

Well, there are several companies in Europe that can help you.
