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, chewed mail. The task I suggested to
Bowie Poag as something even he could do for Gnome - got done
instead by one of our most talented (but bored) hackers, doh.
- Nice to see yet more code cleans (this time for
AMD Hammer) trickling into Gnome (from Mandrake).
- Got a Christmas gift (presumably) from Ximian today
- whom to thank ? - toasted the health of our great company.
- Poked at cups a little - the authors of the helper
API are smoking crack, APIs that return pointers to static
internal buffers were meant to never happen again - incredible.
The amazing thing is for all this 31337 'efficiency' the methods
go and do syscalls and network roundtrips, simply amazing.
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.
