Dear Koha devs,

I would like to have your opinion on a few things concerning the automatic 
renewal feature I'm going to develop (bug 11577). There have been a few 
suggestions and I'm now trying to decide which ones to include right away or do 
as a follow-up.

Here's the updated RFC:
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Automatic_renewal_RFC

Before I start writing code I'd like to know:
* Should the automatic renewal option be sysprefed? Or should it always be 
visible/available?
* Should it be based on permissions? I'd say no. Do you think libraries might 
want to have some staff with permission for circulation but NOT automatic 
renewal and other staff with permission for both?

I believe the next questions are better suited for a follow-up, but also 
important:
* Do we need a special notice for automatic renewals? For the first step I 
would prefer not to mess with the messaging system (remains to be seen if there 
are problems with the standard renewal notice, though).
*Should patrons be allowed to enable automatic renewal in the OPAC? I didn't 
think about this at first, because my library wants the feature only for some 
patron categories, not all.

Thanks!
Holger
