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; a DHL man arrived unexpectedly to
take my laptop away; yanked the disk quickly. Plugged it
into my (older smaller) Latitude, started up intending to
copy etc to somewhere safe and re-configure. Kudzu fired
up, thought I'd try that. It re-configured my machine with
no sweat, and no re-booting, into X perfectly on a rather
different machine - good work Red Hat.
- Better, on my 366Mhz, 128Mb, slow HDD laptop
Nautilus is still snappy with the SVG theme. Sucked some
packages, then chewed mail. Grant Richards turned up,
had a chat with him.
- Continued writing up some minutes. Wrote up
a report on work done, what a waste of time.
- Did a new release of eog with the sawfish
redundant focus workaround. Finished porting
bonobo-activation to Gnome 2.0, somehow some deprecated
cruft got missed out.
- Packed a load of stuff for tommorow, pretty
much everything wearable from my wardrobe.
- Did some at-poke hacking on relation sets,
did some at-spi fixing, relation sets were just totally
unuseable, more prettification of at-poke [ you can
now double click on a relation and it takes you to the
target ]. Bed very late.
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.
