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, did washing and ironing (sigh). Gdk-pixbuf-save
is not going into gdk-pixbuf for 1.0 apparently, doh, I'll have to
cut and paste it a lot. Made the eog bonobo image component serialize
to png via a stream; after fearing the png headers for too long they
actually turned out rather easy.
- Started seeking memory leaks around the place; it seems
that scm_init_storage allocates 260k on gnumeric startup [ if you have
the guile plugin ], what can it be doing with it ?
- Spent the afternoon totaly re-writing bonobo-hello; it
helps if the standard example of good coding practice actualy is.
Committed fixes, committed my 'oaf-slay' script for destroying all
oaf processes; a blunt tool =). Committed minor improvements to
guppi's bonobo structure.
- Noticed several new gnumeric bug reports in outlandish
foreign languages; excellent, must say something about our user base.
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.
