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.

- Both babies slept through the night without interrupting
us, wow - most pleasing. Measured the new .tar.bz2 sizes for the split
up OO.o, saved another nice chunk of download size: now the '-core.tar.bz2'
(the only bit you really need to build on Linux) is down to 110m from
269m. Tried to get up-stream interested in officially blessing the split.
- Knocked up a patch to add a load of missing
GDK_THREADS_ENTER/LEAVE calls to gail - boggled at the beautiful
cut/paste code in need of re-factoring in there.
- Back to -Bdirect, substantial progress - got it turning
'.gnu.linkonce' into vague markup & re-using that from other libraries.
Yes of course, this will push loads of template foo into the slow-to-link
category, but most of that is demand linked anyway so...
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.
