Having datas twice (biblio & items and marcxml row), with the help of TransformMarcToKoha should be very helpfull. Dirty hack : - modify TransformMarcToKoha to deal with DC (or whatever you want) (and some other subs inside C4/Biblio.pm and C4/Items.pm) - rewrite MARC editor display DC (big job...) - do the XSLT to display the MARC record - update zebra config file to index DC That should be enough... All other things (circ,...) should work like a charm without any changes. Of course, that's the theory. And you know that "theory and practise are the same... in theory" -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08 _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel@lists.koha.org http://lists.koha.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel
