The biggest practical problem that you might run into is of course that there is only one vendor for the LibLime fork so they can name any price they want to fix bugs that you find. Even if it does seem they actualy have a public Git repository for their fork these days you will have a very

Hi all, As others pointed out, LLK and Koha are not the same. They were once upon a time, but speaking as someone whose employer (SCLS) chose LLK but who also watches the Koha community with great interest, I can confirm the products are divergent, and increasingly so. Some key differences

Jesse, This being the community list, I have to say we know too little about that (years back) fork of Koha. Any doubt about the community Koha, please feel free to ask. Best regards Tomas El Thu Dec 04 2014 at 18:02:53, Jesse Lambertson (jlambert...@sqcc.org) escribió: Hello everyone, We

But I was looking at the LibLime version of Koha and wondered, out of curiosity, what problems I might run into if I installed their version instead of the current stable version as hosted on the community wiki. You are asking this on the community list?

I am not asking to be rude or that I have any skepticism about anything in the community or the current package, this is merely a technical question for info's sake. This forum is so helpful to me as I prepare to install. I am sorry if I offended anyone. I did not mean to do that. Thank you,

Jesse, I don't think anyone intended to come across as rude. There are still -- and always will be -- very hard feelings over the fork of Koha several years ago and everything that happened around that time. Good luck on your install and on your library using Koha. Heather Braum NExpress

Hi, Jesse! It's my impression that the LibLime version of Koha isn't really an open source product, since LibLime doesn't release their code at all--it's more like a proprietary product. So asking us on this list about LibLime's Koha, here where we talk about the fully open source community

One major point, is that the Liblime software is by their own admission not Koha. It is based on Koha from about 2008/2009. Liblime software may or may not be so far removed from Koha by now that they work nothing like each other. We don't know because we don't use it. If you try Liblime Koha

LibLime Koha on the Koha Community! You are alone Jesse. My advice to you is to install LibLime Koha and test it in something like a virtual environment after the test drive you can then compare it with anything. Also ask the people who use LibLime Koha other wise asking about Liblime Koha on this
