Hello list,

One improvement we would like to see is the merging of the two views (I'm sure 
this has already been raised). We currently prefer Alternate as we use routing 
lists. We also have asked for a customized routing list to reflect the one we 
currently have. This will be particular to our library, but we are certainly 
willing to submit to the community.

A serials related get together is a great idea.

Subject: [OPEN-ILS-DEV] Making a serials roadmap of sorts, openly

I've recently heard from Olli-Antti Kivilahti, who along with Pasi Kallinen has 
identified some of his institution's most highly desired serials features.

I'll let them respond here with more detail if they're ready to do so now, but 
I also wanted to take the opportunity to organize some kind of serials-related 
get-together at the Evergreen conference.

Let's have all available past, present, and future Evergreen serials developers 
come together to discuss what we can agree on, design-wise, and let's also talk 
about what we think we can get done, given that none of us are in a position to 
work on serials development full-time at the moment.  As far as I know nobody 
out there is funding any specific serials development work on Evergreen right 
now, but that's not to say that some work can't happen anyway.

Also, I think we should semi-formally make ourselves available at some 
appointed time and place to hear questions, concerns, and feature wishlists 
from serials users at the conference.  There has been a significant increase in 
the number of sites using Evergreen serials since last year's conference, and 
it's a good opportunity to identify the most pressing needs of the broader 
community.

Feedback about all of these things are also welcome right here on the mailing 
list.

Regards,
