[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reminder: web client hacking day tomorrow

[Kathy Lussier]

Hi all,

I'm a little late in sending this e-mail, but I wanted to send along a 
big thank you for everyone who participated in our last web client 
hacking day on February 3:

Bill Erickson for fixing some bugs and helping troubleshoot issues that 
arose during hatch testing

Christine Burns for testing bug fixes, signing off on a few that have 
since been merged to the core code, and providing feedback on others.

Michele Morgan for testing and signing off on bug fixes

Thanks for all of your help in moving the web client along!

I'm pleased to report that work on the web client has been progressing 
since our last web client hacking day.

- After more testing from Chris Sharp, Michele Morgan and me, along with 
quick fixes from Bill Erickson, work on hatch is progressing well. 
Although hatch isn't required for all web client workstations, it will 
allow staff to do unmediated printing (no dialogs) to multiple printer. 
It also will allow users to store their workstation preferences outside 
of the browser in a shared location and will ultimately be used for 
offline transactions. At this time, hatch will be available as a Chrome 
browser plugin. I fully expect hatch will be ready to merge to the core 
code in time for the beta deadline.

- The Equinox developers have been working to address acquisitions bugs. 
Those fixes should also be merged before the beta freeze.

- Galen Charlton has also been busy this week testing and merging even 
more web client bug fixes. Thank you Galen!

I plan to update the MassLNC VM at mlnc3 later today with new bug fixes 
that will be available for anyone to test when they have a few spare 
moments in their day.

Thanks all!

Kathy
