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.

- Woken at 8.30am by the phone, which no-one was
answering, a vacillating relative wanting reassurance. Grief.
- Up midday, lunch, paid parents rent, and a load of
the phone bill.
- Ripped a load of my CD's to mp3 so I can listen to
them on the Plane, I hope this is legal, common sense dictates
that it should be but...
- More reference counting hassles, since we don't have
the concept of 'sinking' a Bonobo object, we probably need to do
something special for Controls, to save people having to unref
them all over the shop.
- Discovered why -lefence has been failing strangely
for me; doh it's so obvious. What with the general use of
g_malloc / g_free in my code, there are no calls to malloc /
free in the program I am linking, and hence the linker discards
-lefence. Simply adding a redundant malloc/free fixes this fine.
- More hassle trying to find the corruption in gdk;
seemingly it doesn't want to be found. Need to talk to Nat.
- Re-orgniased some of the crud in Bonobo to the
periphery. Talked to Miguel who is gagging for ORBit shrinkage.
Tried to help Ariel diagnose what seems to be a LinuxPPC gcc
bug manifesting itself in glade.
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.
