[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Z39.50 target
OK - I know there isn't a z39.50 target right now... and the road map says 1.4 Summer '08, but I've got 2 weeks! :-) So... Anyone have any ideas in setting up a gateway, or something, to act as a target Z39.50 server for Interlibrary Loan and Federated search until it's integrated into EG? How about a Alpha/Beta of the Z server? Cheers F. Grant Johnson Systems Coordinator Robertson Library University of Prince Edward Island
Re: [OPEN-ILS-DEV] PATCH: re-open client window
The attached will provide a Open New Window button to the staff login window, for those times when you blindly close it behind yourself. I wasn't sure where it should fit, so I've just dropped it next to the About button, with a gentle reminder to Login first if there's no current session. Huzzah! Applied with thanks to trunk, rel_1_2, and rel_1_2_2. Works as advertised. This is the first time I've officially submitted anything, so if this is not the correct format/procedure, you know where to find me. I think we want to push people toward including a linux-style Developer's Certificate of Origin statement as mentioned here: http://open-ils.org/documentation/contributing.html#Submitting%20a%20Patch But I'm personally happy with implied licenses for things like this, and I can't imagine this code came from say, SCO Unix. ;) Thanks again, and if you want to tackle other low hanging fruit, let us know! -- Jason Etheridge | VP, Community Support and Advocacy | Equinox Software, Inc. / The Evergreen Experts | phone: 1-877-OPEN-ILS (673-6457) | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | web: http://www.esilibrary.com

Hey Grant, do you just need to expose bib records via Z39.50? You could always try the time-honored workaround of exporting data and using an external application (see Yaz and Zebra from http://indexdata.com/). There's even an atom feed in Evergreen where you can pull bib data for new titles as they're added. I imagine it would be easy to add one for record deletions, or you could query the db periodically. This is just off the top of my head. You might be able to backport the SRU functionality from trunk and layer a Z39.50 translation service on top of it, but we'll need Mike to chime in on that. -- Jason Etheridge | VP, Community Support and Advocacy | Equinox Software, Inc. / The Evergreen Experts | phone: 1-877-OPEN-ILS (673-6457) | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | web: http://www.esilibrary.com
