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.

- Threw away loads of cruft in my room, two great boxes of
old, foreign MSDN CDs, a 'New World' mis-translation of the bible,
out of date data books; can now see the floor in places.
- Saw Jon has got Guppi3 into a bonoboizable state; excellent,
spent a while upgrading it to the new GnomeFont stuff, annoying fiddling
with ArtIRects etc. Got it embedding; excellent, committed & mailed Jon
to celebrate; screenshot time.
- Peeled potatoes to calm down; always quit while you are
ahead. Interesting phone call.
- Chasing more reference counting bugs; despite all the code
I added the best way seems to be watching the ref_count; perhaps I just
don't trust my debug yet.
- Committed my mamouth bonobo patch; now oaf is locking for me,
urgh, seems determined to chew all my swap space occasionaly in an
un-debuggable fashion. Wrote some bonobo ref-counting documentation,
commited gnumeric fixes.
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.
