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.

- Got up late, started tech review of a new book; exciting stuff.
- Spent absolutely ages hacking gb to lay the groundwork for the
Load / UnLoad statements. This involves cleaning some nasty kludges from
the system which was rather satisfying, lots more to go yet though.
- Mail from my friend David Faure of KDE
fame he wanted to know how gnumeric handled localisation of function arguments,
eg. SUM(1,5) could be 6 or 1 and a half depending where you live. Found a nasty
bug in the array formulae code screwing up my nice array entry parser bits.
- Kludged gb some more to make it run the demo again and committed.
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.
