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.

- Up early, mail processing.
- Caught train back to Hove, merged up a Mark ORBit2
POA fix patch - must nag Martin about a CVS account for him.
- Merged up Martin's ORBit2 fixes.
- Oaf it seems does work quite nicely, but for some
reason the new oaf won't talk to the old oaf ... hmm. Did some
more compat tests ... no compat problem.
- Forced running the new oaf, works fine when done
manualy. Wierd, added an entry barrier caught it in the debugger,
stepped through - works fine. Remove debug code - broken. Insert
a 1 second sleep into oaf - works fine - horrors.
- Discovered oaf works with ~1/2 sec usleep, but not
less - started moving the delay around to try and chop the
error - gack.
- Put:
ORBIIOPIPv4=1
in my ~/.orbitrc file, so that I could at least
make IP connections to myself, since Unix domain sockets didn't
want to play ball - suddenly everything worked beautifuly.
- Started porting libbonobo to ORBit2 in a dual build
mode so we could go back at anytime to ORBit-martin-forked.
- Fun hacking, limited by typematic rate again instead
of brain overload; excellent.
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.
