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 nice mail from another Michael pointing out I am a month
behind on my dates; doh.
- Lots of work on gnome-vfs' efs support. Begginning to come
together slowly, there is a stupidly needless degree of abstraction in place
though. Very annoying to see how ugly things get when they don't have a
draconian maintainer.
- Setup the skeleton for the vfs compound document storage
system. Discovered that loading saved games into embeddable minesweeper had
been broken for ages; duh, trivial fix.
- The Bicentenial ball; very good evening, lovely food, beautiful
female company, sublime fireworks, laser 'clay' pidgeon shooting, dodgem
cars, celidah, opera, sumo wrestling, coconut shy, the strength thing with
a huge mallet etc. What fun. We danced the night away, and even made the
survivors photo, excellent. Met Al Riddock from Southampton, it seems he
knows Nick Lamb and Robert Brady; good crew.
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.
