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.

- Mailed a 2nd more thorough canvas patch to Federico, hopefully it
will meet with royal approval.
- After meeting with some AT&T guys I realised that not only was my
4th year project ( 1/2 my final mark ) worthless in that it is being duplicated
by some guy working full time, but the only thing that would have made it fun
( plugging it into the active badge system ( which is essentialy only good for
a demo anyhow ) ) was virtually impossible due to the 'design' of that system.
Very annoyed indeed.
- Fixed lots of brokenness in 'gb's autoconf system so we get the
right libraries automaticaly linking in when we dl_open the gnumeric plugin.
Fixed up the test program and hacked gnumeric's gb support until it is far
far more squeaky.
- Fixed a load of problems in gnumeric's bonobo build, stayed up
extremely late, ostensibly to argue with Jody about how best to deal with
the canvas in gnumeric. In fact this didn't transpire, instead I implemented
style undo / redo which has been bugging people for too long; surprisingly
tricky.
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.
