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

Thanks Bill!

I missed the print discussion on IRC, so thank you for summarizing that on the wiki. I'm delighted that you're working on printing solutions at this early stage since printing has been acknowledged as one of the biggest unknowns in the development of the web client. (And, for some reason, library receipt printers and label printers seem to have more idiosyncrasies than any other type of printer I've ever used!) 

I look forward to hearing how it handles working with receipt and label printers and with printing graphics. I know some of the PINES libraries incorporate graphics (usually their library logo or summer reading program or other promotional graphics) into their receipts already, and I expect the use of that feature to grow.

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

Hi All, 

I've started adding notes and points of interest for browser staff development to a wiki page: 

http://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=dev:browser_staff:dev_notes 

I'm putting them here, because I like having everything in one place, but as bigger issues arise, I'll try to point them out on the lists as well. Of interest may be my updates for 2014-03-04, since the printer PoC was only discussed in IRC. 

I'm tagging myself as an author to each of my posts with the assumption that others may wish to add to the log as the project expands. 

Feedback welcome as always.
