Re: [Phpmylibrary-users] Hi / PhpMylibrary roadmap

[admin <ad...@po...>]

Greetings, 

This is not yet available as you are the first one to request it, if 
majority requires it the LDAP authentication will be perhaps be made in 
future releases. PhpMyLibrary is currently establishing all its basic 
feature, after that it will go through enhancement stage. 

As of now basic feature that are needed as of this time march 30, 2005 ar=
e 
the following: 

1) Online editing/updating of library configuration found at conf.php fil=
es. 
This feature allows the user to edit their configs online without requiri=
ng 
them to ftp'ing through their ftp host to modify the configs. 

2) The z3950 feature that I always want to exist in PhpMyLibrary. This 
feature will allow the library cataloger to just copy or import marc from=
 
the library of congress z3950 server by just filling in some keywords, an=
d 
the result will show up, thereby allowing them to just select and import =
it. 

3) Make PhpMyLibrary as PhpNuke/PostNuke module and Mambo component. This=
 
will allow cms users to just download and install PhpMyLibrary as a modul=
e 
or component. 

4) Make the PhpMyLibrary scalable in which it will be usable not only to 
library catalogs but also as a general data retrieval system of any natur=
e 
whether it be library bibliographic info search engine, personal director=
y 
search engine, telephone directory, archive search engine, etc. This idea=
 is 
backed by the CDS/ISIS feature/functionality in which during our time, we=
 
can use it as a thesis database, book database, student directory, etc. 
CDS/ISIS users understands what I am talking here probably. 

5) Enhance the generation of reports in pdf format. 

Enhancement Stage: 

1) LDAP authentication
2) Barcode Integration using either wxpython or qt/c++
3) Enhance the database queries to make it handle million of records. 

If interested anyone can participate in developing basic and enhanced 
feature.
