[Publib] Re: Implementing Koha

[Meghan Miller Brawley]

Thanks to everyone who replied.
The consensus appears to be that using LibLime to migrate to Koha is the way

with the product.
Several asked if I'd found discussion lists for Koha -- here's the
development website, which includes discussion lists and development
information, documentation, bugzilla, etc.
