---- Reported by jwagner@ptfs.com 2010-02-22 19:43:57 ---- Sponsored by Middletown Township Public Library, Middletown, NJ, USA. To preserve patron privacy at library public workstations, this feature adds a timeout using a new syspref (ResetOpacInactivityTimeout). After that length of time (in seconds), an OPAC session will return to the initial screen. If a user is logged in, the session will be logged out. ---- Additional Comments From gmcharlt@gmail.com 2010-05-11 12:07:18 ---- Looking at the patch, I see that the screensaver.js file is a copy-and-paste of code from http://www.codeguru.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-433956.html Please contact the author and get consent for distributing the code under the GPL2+. If the author does not consent or cannot be found, the screensaver will have to be rewritten (maybe there's a jQuery plugin). ---- Additional Comments From jwagner@ptfs.com 2010-05-12 13:36:29 ---- Consent received via email: I consent to the GPL licensing of the "ScreenSaver" JavaScript code published by me, Andreas Blixt aka. andreasblixt, on September 14th, 2007 at http://www.codeguru.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-433956.html for use in Koha. /Andreas Blixt The fix for this bug (in ptfs-harley) can be pulled from the public git repository at http://github.com/Koha-PTFS, branch http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4238 ---- Additional Comments From kyle.m.hall@gmail.com 2010-05-12 14:20:38 ---- I made first contact with the author via Facebook. Here is the conversation: ME (May 12 at 8:17am): Hello, I recently found a bit of javascript you wrote ( assuming there aren't many Andreas Blixt's out there. ) We would like to use it in Koha, and Open Source library management system. Would you be willing to allow me to release this code under the GPLv2 or later? ( Included link to http://www.codeguru.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-433956.html ) Andreas Blixt (May 12 at 8:40am): Haha I had a hard time even remembering I wrote that code. Go ahead. :) As a general rule I say that all my minor pieces of code are MIT licensed, but I always appreciate a mention. :) ME (May 12 at 9:06am): Thanks! That is a huge help. Could you send an 'official' confirmation that we can GPL this code to jwagner@ptfs.com? I'm sure we can add an attribution somewhere as well. Thanks again! ---- Additional Comments From kyle.m.hall@gmail.com 2010-05-12 14:22:01 ---- I suggest the attribution include his name "Andreas Blixt" and his website, http://blixt.org/ --- Bug imported by chris@bigballofwax.co.nz 2010-05-21 01:24 UTC --- This bug was previously known as _bug_ 4238 at http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4238 Unknown operating system Windows 2000.

Created attachment 2904 [details] [review] Re-implementation of the changes in Harley This patch re-implements the changes made by PTFS and included in Harley. The code seems to work well, but in order for this to be a complete fix it would have to include an update to the database and preferences. I like that this update includes handling of the Cart, but I'm still not crazy about the idea that ALL OPAC users will be affected by this kind of configuration There's no reason to time out user browsing the OPAC from home.
The Harley integration project has been stalled for some time.
