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, set about writing / polishing my talk,
and trying to get some demos to work for later today.
- Wow, Marco Ridoni, seems to have arrived from
nowhere, taken the Gnome Basic work, and extended it in some
interesting directions. Nice to see something good come of
that mess.
- Porridge for breakfast; to the train. Tube to
Trafalger Sq. to the National Gallery for an exhibition of
renaisance sketches behind famous works of art - as revealed
by infra-red reflectography. Quite good, some interesting
things.
- Pret a Manger, then to Goodge St, and Westminster
university for the glug talk. Arrived as Alasdair was
coming to the end of his talk.
- Had a drink, met Richard, got plugged up, met Nick
Richards of OO.o marketing fame. Did a fairly lengthy talk / QA
thing - gave away monkeys. Talked to Glen and Mike, and others
afterwards, then a talk on Grid computing - some interesting
ideas.
- J. arrived, off to Molly, Tristan & Ethan's
for dinner; pizza and red wine. Managed to spill Tristan's
wine - bother, pleasant evening though. Back home 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.
