Re: [Koha-devel] From the Kaitiaki

[Saiful Amin]

Hi

I'm Saiful Amin, a student of Master's of Library & Information Science. 
I've worked on Koha for a very brief period before my exams and am a
member of this mailing list for the past 3 months.  I've almost one year's
experience in Perl and been working on redhat linux for past 8 months.

I've worked on this software only for testing purposes to see how far it
is suitable for the Indian libraries.  So far I've got the koha-1.2.2
working with z3950 client and the sample database.  I plan to test koha
for many other features such as handling of multilingual documents.

I'm currently busy this month with a team project on the Greenstone
digital library system.  My next project might well be on Koha!  I am a
big supporter of open source projects and would like to contribute at
least in the documentation of this software.

I would be more than happy to help out anybody in my locality concerning
installation, etc.  I really want it to keep growing.

With regards,

-Saiful
