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, quick breakfast, checked mail; set off for the airport
- amazing to see the queueing ships, presumably waiting to go through
the strait. Arrived at the airport, no passport, grief. Applied prayer,
& hunting - phoned Hubert who located it at the front-desk (apparently
this is a feature-not-bug). JP very kindly rescued me by taxi & I
made it to the plane, thank God.

Thinking over GUADEC, having talked at length to Tim, I'm just
slightly convinced that ABI breakage is worthwhile in the short term;
and having given lots of grief about it, that it will be measured &
manageable for existing software to move without huge disruption; and
that the gain is real.

Uneventful flight home, wonderful to hug little people left
& right, and relieve the parents of their labour of love. Lots
of fun, though far harder work than conferencing.
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.
