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.

- Finaly discovered that I need to 'commit' changes to efs files
before closing them, that is if I expect to get anything back when I open
them again; a breakthrough. Found that sample-container was not closing
streams between reads / writes.
- Chased a load of silly bugs around the place, closed a load in
the bug tracker, how satisfying. Rewrote some IO routines for speed and
cleanliness.
- Implemented a file handling layer, open, create, close, read, seek
in my vfs test shell, now we can make some powerful regression tests. Mailed
the mailing list to see if anyone can help me solve the in-file filingsystem
vfs design dropoffs quickly.
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.
