[Eg-newdevs] z39.50 interface bug

[Terran McCanna]

Hi everyone,

For next week's New Devs working group (Wednesday, May 19 at 3pm Eastern),
I propose that we get back to the z39.50 bug that we started working on a
few months ago and see if we can knock that out:

https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=newdevs:meetings:agenda-2021-05

It would be very helpful if catalogers from a few different organizations
who are familiar with the interface and know what settings they use attend
so we can test different scenarios.

See you then!
Terran
