Thanks Dan. I for one am looking forward to checking this out.

Hello again,
Just as an FYI, I think at least the basic structural components of the serials
interface are now all committed. It consists of more rough edges than polish at
this point, but at least it is out there for the daring. There are still a few
uncommitted files, and I expect to make regular commits over the next few days
to shore up the receiving interface. Once that is done, I'll take a few days to
tackle the 'FIXME's and the the most important of the 'TODO's.
I'll send another email when I think it is really worth the effort needed to
get it set up.
Thanks,
Dan

Aha! My bad for jumping the gun a bit. Looks like it will be cool.

Hello,
There are still some commits forthcoming. The problem you are experiencing has most to do with the fact that the interface defaults to the 'Items' tab, but only the 'Subscriptions' tab code has been committed. There are also IDL and a few schema changes yet to commit. I am going to spend a couple more days on the Items tab to get basic predicting/receiving functional again, and will surely let everyone know when I *think* all the initial pieces are in place.
Thanks,
Dan

Dan Wells has recently done a lot of work to in the serials area, and he
has created staff client interfaces that promise to cover large parts of
the serials management workflow. Kudos to Dan!
I'm hoping to draw you out to talk about it a little more, Dan, :-) but
also, there seems to be a little bit of code that's missing, or still to
be committed?
In trying to look at your new interfaces, I chose "Serial Control View"
from the "Actions for this Record" menu of the staff client's opac
wrapper, but from there I just get an error to the effect that my_init
is undefined, and the interfaces are blank.
I can see from your code that there should be definitely be something
happening there, so I'm just wondering whether some JS files are
missing, and/or some XUL overlays (there's a reference to at least one
missing file, manage_items.xul, but I haven't made an exhaustive search
for others).
Sorry if I'm drawing attention to ragged edges, but I'm aching to see
what's going on in the serials UI!
Thanks,
