Hello Kyle and others, I really like the idea :) I don't see major issues, and the lack of editor is a wrong issue (what kind of editor do you want??) The main point is that it will be much more powerful that our current homemade syntax parser. I have already used this enhancement on bug 15705: wi

Going from our own syntax to a more general format is good. If we along that way, improve Letters.pm, that is fine too ! For developers it is great that is more powerful but that is probably the pitfall too. I think we should make sure that we can (automatically) convert old notices to the new f

Salvete! Shouldn't that just draw on the list of registered borrowers? I'm trying to think of a situation where I'd take a suggestion from someone that's not a Patron, and in those cases they either ring the Library directly or email me. Cheers, Brooke __

I think Jonathan has an excellent plan of attack, but it does require a complete switchover all at once. I would propose we continue to use the default TT tags so that we can push this code to master while working on ensuring all notices work with the new TT syntax. After that, we can throw the sw

As a consortia manager with lots and lots of letters in this area of Koha, I cannot emphasize enough that making the switchover process with these proposed changes as simple as possible is critical. I'm glad to see consistency getting developed for this area and moving the system forward, but plea

I think that a flag may not even be necessary -- the TT syntax won't conflict with the current letter formats, and is unlikely to be entered accidentally. I think that we could simply silently start to support TT, and no one would be the wiser, except for those who want to use it. This also addres

I like the idea of the flag as it would allow to keep the code separate from the current notices code and to have a clean start, while we can be pretty sure that the old code still remains working as before. The current syntax is not very consistent across the different notices - <>, , ... or
