Comment 9 for bug 158435

The php patching is not yet done, but want to report a few details so that anybody who wishes can provide suggestions, warnings, advice or any other kind of feedback.

The module is in petabox/www/common/DevelopMekel.inc and it is checked into cvs. It is not yet finished, but i think the form is pretty clear so that hopefully the flaws are visible. (To actually do anything with it, you would need to check it out from cvs, as well as petabox/etc/petabox-sw-config-us.xml and the c code in petabox/sw/books/microfilm/jpgtojp2, which you can build by typing "make".) (Also note that the php passes the flag --interface_check to the c program which inhibits any actual computations from happening so that only dummy files are produced. That's for development only.)

Further, to use it, you might have to modify BookItemOperation.inc: i have not checked in my changes there because i don't want this to go live yet.

I believe what's left to do is to:
(1) get the statistics out: i'll need some info here on how this is to be packed up (tar/zip? naming?)
(2) write the *_files.xml file (Raj has a script to do this which i plan to use if at all possible)
(3) get the info from Marcus about just what Library of Congress catalog numbers we can get from our existing marc and meta xml.
