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.

legacy html
- Up early, off to CAF. Pulled up red-carpet and
sorted out the increasingly stale software on my system.
Grief RC is sweetness, pretty, pretty and flawless ( apart
from some terminal debug churn, but let's blame that on
gtkhtml ).
- Tried to get the Java / Bonobo / Accessibility
stuff moving for Bill, then back to libglade for some
GtkImageMenuItem furkling. Fixed up stock GtkButtons, mapped
GnomeDialogs to GtkDialogs. etc. Coffee with J'.
- Fixed up mnemonic widgets, so accelerators work
nicely, added BonoboWindow support. Good enough for most
things now, time to get to libbonoboui for some polish.
- Started sorting out the mess in bonoboui-hello,
more comments, rename and make it conform to all the best
practice we can find. Jody released gnumeric 0.72 with this
shot
either JPEG artifacts are getting worse, or we support
gradient graph backdrops.
- Fired some queries from the hip at gtk-devel,
got on with libbonoboui cleaning. Struggled away with some
gtkplug bug, causing daftness finalizing the GdkWindow
resources, seen it before in Gnome 1.4, the old fix doesn't
work though, sigh. Sent a lengthy analysis off to gtk-devel.
- 50 FIXMEs in libbonoboui, sigh. Spent an age
fixing one, but advanced on the evil Control / ControlFrame
lifecycle mess promisingly. Nailed another daft one, time to
go.
- Home, went for a run, made some Nacho type things,
eat, studied, 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.
