Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

- Couldn't sleep in the night, poked at the ooo
build; discovered a vicious dictionaries problem, seems we
still need to build a textual list of them; updated the
tool to do that, need to push new ooo-dictionaries with the
list included, should be quick/easy. Back to sleep.
- Up early, more mail. Conference call with the
Indian team, gradually getting up to speed. Pushed the new
ooo-dictionaries packages - they work nicely. Fixed Raul's
access to ooo.x.c up, evo cut/paste bug with large
multi-line ssh keys (perhaps). Discovered the silly bug in
the gtk+ integration causing pain.
- Philipp arrived on IRC as I left to have a
drink with Ben Elvidge to celebrate his successful PhD
viva - good stuff. Met Alex Haynes from CH - interestingly
doing a PhD in inorganic chemistry - 1/2 of them are girls
it seems.
- Back to VCL, some re-factoring to dung some
mess out. Out to Louise' for dinner, had a pleasant time
but very tired, back, bed early.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
