[OPEN-ILS-DEV] [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] browser staff client development notes / updates

[Bill Erickson]

Hi Terran,

Well, I certainly would not object to a wiki page that listed printers,
along with (eventually) information about the status, comments,
suggestions, etc.  (I thought there might be something like that already,
but I only found some printer-specific info).  We will be relying heavily
on the community for testing and documentation, since there are so many
printers out there, so your offer of help is greatly appreciated.

An example template or two that uses graphics might be helpful as well, to
ensure that we are all talking about the same thing.

Thanks,

-b
