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 late, breakfast umpteen floors down,
elevators sufficiently congested had to walk several
floors down and use a service elevator; fun.
- Taxi to Brooklyn, streets nice and clear
on a Sunday, cruised past the Javits, under the
tunnel - a pleasant sunny day.
- Discovered the new build thing has new
text keys - which rocks; set off a new scad of OO.o
1.1 builds across the board.
- Great to see Joe's
OpenCarpet stuff released, must upgrade to rug2.
Committed a minor OO.o no-java configure tweak.
Discovered that in order to fully build recent
autoconfs you have to have emacs installed
incredible.
- Out for lunch with McMark and Seth, good
to catch up. Back to hack, missed the RMS discussion,
and got caught in the cross-fire of a multi-party
gnome-control-center planning discussion. Discussed the
vagueries of sound with Owen.
- Train back to Times Sq. Seth explained his
cunning natural language / database stuff to me,
interesting. Attempted to get up to 'The View' restaurant
with no success. Discovered Havoc hadn't noticed eating
with us on the 19th, urk.
- Sat around in the Marriot bar discussing this
and that variously, bed 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.
