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; breakfast, and to work. Chewed
mail, closed some bugs. Committed the gnome-vfs fixes,
no input on the activation ones; sigh. Read the Primarion presentation
on optical busses, interesting.
- Ross Golder seems to be putting nice work
into ORBit2, fixing various annoying bugs - and advancing
threateningly at the threading issues with the bug squasher.
- Added microsecond time stamping to the ORBit2
method traceing code, so simple, yet so powerful. Discovered
evidence to suggest slowness Jacob thought was bonobo was in
fact pango's fault; sigh.
- Off to the shops to get yet more keys cut, now we
can get into the mailbox again ! wow, letters arrived from
Home, horay. Saved them up for J.
- The people above seem to insist on screaming
gratuitously, if they didn't keep laughing it would be fine
one could simply call the police instead of fretting that
they're being murdered or worse slowly.
- Got on debugging the async monikers and catching
various other problems around the place.
- Spent hours banging my head on the ORB to get it
to do in-proc Async stuff properly. Committed the
bonobo-activation work, and finally the ORBit2 changes, it's
good to have Mark to send them to to look over.
- J' arrived home, we read the nice letter from
Mother. Then off to house group. Got back, phoned up the
Vicar, got Davina instead - she was very positive. Bed.
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.
