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.

- Up early, to work. Poked at disksim some more - evil API,
started a new, clean, glib-like wrapper interface, imported into git
repo. Auto-toolized iogrind.
- Had a surreal experience with iogrind - wrapping a C
interface (my first time really) with some PInvoke goodness: amazingly,
at first run, it all worked - even the function pointer / callbacks,
the works: wow. Surely that was supposed to be hard ?
- Started on the other half of the problem - the disksim
code; oh dear, oh dear. Managed to hide much of the evilness behind a
nice-looking (at least) API, albeit the impl. has to set the various
global variables before calling un-namespaced functions etc. Spammed
the (somewhat unresponsive) mailing list with questions.
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.
