Sayed,
There are some companies that host koha for you (including Liblime). The other
alternative is to get your own hosting, setup Koha and do-it-yourself, as long
as you (or someone you know) can do a (tiny) little bit of Linux system
administration from time to time.
I can volunteer to assist you with the latter route, since i suspect that it
is, in general, more cost-effective and flexible. I did the same for a
non-profit (GOB) in Spain. Their Koha is now up at
https://biblioteca.gobmallorca.com/
We basically rented a "slice" (a server through virtualization) on the
Internet, and then set it up with Koha. The approximate current cost is about
25USD a month.
Best regards,
krishnan mani,
India

I have assumed from the beginning that KUDOS was to be US-centric.
John has said so before. From the beginning I didn't really like the
byline I had used, that's why I've been asking for input. Let me know
if you have any other suggestions for changes or content.
FYI, the server that is hosting the site seems to be down. I'll be
fixing that in the morning.
Thanks,
Kyle

No change. I continue to get results when searching, despite having
truncated the listed tables, running various combinations of
`rebuild_zebra.pl` and `zebraidx -c`. Clicking those items results in
a 404. I have verified that browser caching is not at fault.
I'm supposed to give an evaluation of Koha's suitability for use this
week, and having the database(s) in an inconsistent state is making
that extremely difficult. While it would be nice to persist my
configuration changes, I'd be happy just blowing away and re-creating
the database. Can someone please point me to docs or offer help as to
how to re-initialize the DB without doing a complete re-installation?
I'm overwhelmed by the number of scripts and data files provided, and
unable to find documentation aside from reading hundreds of lines of
Perl.
Thanks for your help!

Kudos is a worldwide users group?? And is it the only users and
developers group? What is kohala then?

It seems to be a redirect to http://liblime.com/news-items/blogs
which is not at all appropriate, in my opinion.
Is the intention to port the current KUDOS Wordpress across? (Please!)

Agreed. I think it's important not to claim anything official about
it. That suggests that if someone started another group it wouldn't be
"endorsed by the Koha Project."

I also question the tagline. I hope that KUDOS will play an active
and important role in the Koha project, but there is no need to imply
exclusivity.

Subject: [Koha-devel] RFC: Koha 3.2 : Split Issuing rules into Circ
rules and Circ policies
To: "koha-devel@lists.koha.org" <koha-devel@lists.koha.org>
Message-ID:

RFC : Split issuingrules into Circ rules and Circ policies
Full version :
http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:rfcs3.2:rfc32_circ_policies
Synopsis:
The issuingrules table and smart-rules.pl interface currently mix
definition of circulation policy with definition of when those
policies should be applied. This proposal suggests two distinct
interfaces for these operations.
Details
The issuingrules table currently holds performs two discrete functions:
1. it holds data describing circulation & fines policy, i.e. loan
length, maxissues, fine, etc.
2. it describes which transactions should cause those policies to
be applied.
This RFC proposes that these two data sets be represented in two new
tables in the Koha database, circ_rules and circ_policies, which would
supercede the issuingrules table (i.e. issuingrules will be dropped).
Benefits:
1. Database normalization. as described above.
2. Simplifies interface for those libraries that have many
itemtype & borrower categories.
3. Simplifies future enhancements, allowing us to attach other
types of policies to a given transaction context, e.g. adding a
holds_policies table.
Drawbacks:
1. Having the Policies described on a separate page than where they
are assigned adds a level of complexity to assignment.
This drawback is addressed by including in smart_rules.pl a 'policy
lookup' allowing the user to look up
any available circ policies, as well as an on-hover display of a
policy in the rules display. (see screenshot).
Database changes:
* circ_rules will include branchcode, itemtype, categorycode and
circ_policies_id (and circ_termset_id, see rfc: term loans)
* circ_policies will include remaining columns from issuingules,
with some cleanup.
The patch set will include an updatedatabase patch that will extract
repeated policies from the issuingrules table, name them in English
with an appropriate description, and assign those policies to the
circ_rules table.
Please see wiki page for screenshot of interface.
