Thanks Bill/Dan - I'm not sure if anyone from UPEI responded, but by way of this e-mail we will commit our local policy files to the ILS- Contrib repository in the coming weeks.

I strongly support this proposal - and encourage other sites that have
local policies to also consider using ILS-Contrib as both a convenient
form of offsite storage, and a way of providing seed policies for
other, similar sites.

Yes, UPEI, I'm looking at you - it would be great to examples from
both public libraries and academic libraries in ILS-Contrib.
Especially as an academic library that looks to migrate down the road

2008/8/22 Bill Erickson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Currently, there are a number of customization files, policy scripts, etc.
specific to PINES in the Evergreen directory of the Evergreen ILS
repository. Early on, the ILS repository served as a good place to keep these files, but as Evergreen expands, it makes less sense for them to stay
there.  Also, as you might imagine, it tends to create confusion.

I would like to propose that these files be moved into the ILS- Contrib repository (http://svn.open-ils.org/trac/ILS-Contrib) to continue to serve as examples of how one can configure certain parts of the software. Perhaps
ILS-Contrib/PINES-Examples/ ?

The long-term goal here is to completely remove the Evergreen directory from the ILS repository, since no one outside of PINES uses any of its contents.

Suggestions/thoughts welcome.
