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, said goodbye to Julia. Tried to install
Ximian Gnome on top of the clean Red Hat 7.2, acute dependency
problems - instead I had to install
Red Carpet directly, and then install packages individualy -
luckily they were all cached localy, lots of grief.
- Grandma's nursing home rang, she passed away in the
night, family sad, mother more so.
- Poked at libbonoboui while evolution downloaded so I
can read my mail. Tried playing 'Tux Racer' which in contrast to
the playable game on Thomas' machine [ Voodoo whatnot ] crawls so
badly it takes a while to even quit. Committed my minor Nautilus
traffic reduction patch, and a libbonoboui speedup.
- Chewed mail, and bug reports. Re-built the system
from the ground up. Managed to forget and miss the release team
meeting over tea.
- Fixed up some more bits, added an API for Bill's
Bonobo accessibility support, went to pick up Julia from the
station, finished up and knocked off for Christmas.
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.
