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.

- Lots of logistical work and bill paying, amusingly BT managed to
screw up all numbers beggining 0845, wonderful, and directory enquiries isn't
cheap.
- Installed the Applixware 5.0 preview from LWE after finally
canning my windows partition. Hmm, it is supposed to use gtk, but it seems that
apart from a tenuous DnD connection it doesn't use gtk widgets extensively,
either that or they have a butt ugly applix theme. Comedy messages like
"Font server terminated: See /dev/null" cheered me up.
- Re-installed StarOffice to compare with gnumeric again, hmm.
- Hack on my project half heartedly for a while, so now I am further
convinced that the Unix networking API sucks evily, if it was proposed now it
would be laughed out.
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.
