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; interesting Mdk mail - it seems my ORBit2
fix didn't find Ettore's problem. Hit an annoying gmake bug building
valgrind on RH 8, unsetting CFLAGS seems to fix, ORBit2 regression
tests are valgrind clean - bother. Spent yet more angst unwinding
reference owners and trying to make sense of the trace - no joy.
- Reviewed chapter 6 on autotools, looking good.
Noticed Julian has
signed the JCA, as has Red Hat - which is great. Committed his
uninitialized warning patch to ooo-build.
- Discovered that a number of our icons were not using an
alpha channel that should be, one use for the depressing grey theme
at least; stopped all non 32bit icons getting assasinated at build
time. Did a new ooo-icons release; set off another snapshot build,
this time de-parallel-installized.
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.
