I don't think that Jeff is on this list, but I know he has the Confer files and permission to distribute them. Getting it running in MTS is not as simple as copying the files and running it. You also need to create at least one User ID and several configuration files. I think Jeff has instructions for doing this, but I'm not sure if he has tried doing it. The plan (such as it is) is to include Confer installed in the next version of MTS.
As far as HIM changes and related stuff, I really intend to work on this over the next few weeks. This may or may not happen before your upgrade.

I think we will probably have to wait till d7.0 comes out, but it would be nice if someone could get us the Confer files to try out (I know, I keep pestering about this, but Confer is a centerpiece of MTS).
I’d be willing to do the work to try to get it working.? Is Jeff Ogden on this list? I heard that he may have some idea on what would be needed to get Confer working. I’m guessing that we need all of the files on user CNFR as well as several hooks related to surcharges.? I seem to recall that, at WSU, there was some file under CCID “BILL” that contained some sort of surcharge related data.? I noticed that the BILL user was not included with d6.0, probably because it contained U of M related billing software.
On the subject of Hercules changes,? Mike, I think you said that you still have to find out how to integrate your Hercules changes for the HIM. I’m going to upgrade to CentOS 9 from 7 because, for some reason, large data transfers hang. I’d like to upgrade Hercules at the same time.
Thanks
