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 earlyish, build failed trying to copy gcc
libraries into a 'udk' package, from the wrong place. Thomas
finished up his gnome-mime-data expansion for various 'convert'
recognised image files. Committed.
- Hacked up a patch to fix the strange way set_soenv
shares it's environment with configure.in, sent it to Sander -
the openoffice web site is still not accepting 'issues' from me,
perhaps I need to be approved as an 'Observer'. The build rumbles
on.
- Discovered Nautilus doing a MIME sniff on every
theme icon file it loads, to compare for 'image/svg', incredible.
MjMac got me setup with ssh2 dsa keys for various build machines,
discovered I need to use authorized_keys instead of known hosts
these days.
- Suddenly, while adjusting the viewing angle of the screen
the left hinge cracked off, wow - two hinges in 4 months. Wait till
Monday to get it sorted out. More poking at OO.
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.
