Hi,
Two years ago we installed Koha 2.7 and have been using it since.
We fully translated it into Catalan, as the "official" translation was just half-baked, and we added some new functionalities into it. One of this new funcionalities that added was that we programmed some new OPAC and Intranet screens to allow users select "Automatic notification for new biblios in the user topics of interest". Thus, the library patrons can fill-in an email address (which defaults to the informed one if it is in place), one or more topics of interest and a periodicity (daily /weekly...). Then a ".pl" cron job checks for new biblios matching each of the users selected topics and sends the notification messages where necessary.

Now we are considering a migration to version 3, and we have installed it in a spare machine, but we have some doubts about it... Does version 3 (or any soon-to-be-stable version) have a functionality like the one we implemented? If such this functionality is not available, Is there a way to contribute our code as an addon to Koha or similar? Another question is that While installing this Koha3 I couldn't find whether it is included a way to load translated data into the datababase (e.g. userflags descriptions, system prefs descriptions, etc...) for the selected locale. Back in version 2.7 we exported tables to "csv" and then imported (replaced) the values once they were translated by our translator. Is there a method to load localized data in version 3, and if so, where is this data?
Many thanks and regards,
Toni
