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 at 5.30am - going the wrong way, hmm.
Got a nice
link from my love - still no work on the honeymoon,
bother - must consult some travel agent.
- Tried to encourage people not to merge the
entire Gnome development list set into a single list, grief -
sure it'd reduce cross posts, but re-posts - well through the
roof.
- Caught up with Nat on IRC, did some work with him,
looked at the way linc blocks - particularly stupidly it turns
out.
- J' rang up from her bed, lovely to hear her voice.
Tried to explain why you should not inherit interfaces unless you
know what you are doing to all and sundry, with little success.
- Re-enabled the Nautilus list view - I forgot it was
disabled waiting for me to port EelList. Got on with libbonoboui
fixage, tried to release libbonoboui-1.108.0 since James just
released libglade - horay. Fixed GConf API usage problem in
gnome-vfs.
- Got to a the lifecycle issues in libbonoboui, after
a lot of fuzzy thinking finally got some clarity. Cleaned away
some really brainless bits (of my own creation) from the
UIEngine/UIContainer combo and made it pretty. Nautilus now
closes windows beautifuly. Committed the Nautilus bits,
committed the libbonoboui bits, onto testing gnome-core.
- Jody started porting gnumeric to Gnome 2.0 - which
looks like it'll result in some hard core platform butt-kicking
fairly shortly; great news. Committed an eel fix for the list
view - now get (crushed) icons but no text. Did some more
research work for Nat.
- Committed some more nautilus bits, cereal, bed
at 12.00pm - got up to write to J' - doh. Realised I'd
forgotten to go to Cell group; bother.
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.
