this is a good idea. BUT : it means making heavy changes in Koha, as it's the core of most features we have. Even if we have nice packages & a stable API, I think the changes will be heavy. I spoke of that with hdl this morning, he fully agree. So I think this change must be carefully estimated, and double checked if we can include that in 3.2 with the timeline you've announced (and that I fully agree with) -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc NOUVEAU TELEPHONE : 04 91 81 35 08 _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel@lists.koha.org http://lists.koha.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel
