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.

- Started reading mail; oh dear. Fixed libole2
bug I had left over Christmas, gack.
- Chewed lots of mail. Brought my system up to
the cutting edge again.
- John Platten working for DigiCool ( who had spent
some time in the past bothering me in an attempt to get me to
do a very simple task for him ) has just sent me a tar.gz of his
changes. These extend to useful feature additions like - removing the
original authors header; re-indenting the code non-KnR, removing
debugging code, killing all the GtkDoc API documentation, inserting
hundreds of invalid '//' commenting out lines. Apparently working
on 'Dublin' or something. Extremely peeved. Added explicit
copyright notices in those modules missing them. He didn't even use
the changes I made to help him, probably due to his mangling.
- Started tracking a theme related bug in bonobo pixmap
alpha transparency; need some themes I suppose.
- Committed a fix to oaf-slay to stop it killing certain
shared library components.
- It seems John was only showing me the code to demo
his scheme for fixing it; oh, perhaps I was just in a bad mood this
morning or something.
- Did a gb release to ease my mental confusion.
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.
