Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

Up lateish, ( how could I leave J' in bed ? ) breakfast, to the hack-fest. Attacked the bug database, all manner of nastiness under the sun, shut a few.
Sean arrived, and set about fixing bonobo-activation exception reporting for the async case, actually passing the user the exception error instead of "an error occured" - or something equally helpful.
It seems installing ccache on the tinderbox borked the build by hard-coding 'ccache' into the pre-processor used by libIDL, a fun one to find.
Fixed libbonoboui help handling, closed the bug. Set out to write the /tmp/orbit-$USER cleanup code.
Sean committed his in-proc-ization of the history component which should give a nice speedup. Looked at getting Sean a POP'able account to forward to, found the httpmail project, providing a POP >-< Hotmail bridge.
Got on with hacking the socket cleanup code.
Quit to make dinner, while Julia finished her painting efforts in the toilet, new ceiling, new walls.
Bangers and mash, Jelly & Ice-cream, yum. Decided that what with all the cut throat competition in England, it's a cow eat cow country.
Got on with putting some shelves up - strained with the junior hacksaw pruning the brackety bits down to size. Couldn't locate my chisel, [ for notching the shelf backs so they fit over the brackets ], discovered J' had used it for levering the paint pots open, got upset. Apologised later.
Bed late, + 3 hefty shelves.
