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; battled some very odd oddness with
Philipp's gtk+ stuff; seems not to be processing gtk+
events at all. Started adding debug to gtk+ - gtk+ started
crashing at startup with no warning; nice.
- Discovered the OO.o problem, a busy loop on
some strange timeout pipe; re-hashed, virtualised wakeups
got Philipp on IRC (horay) and committed a set of fixes,
looking far nicer now.
- J. went to collect pictures leaving H. to be
ill on my log-book on my lap; the nurse phoned to say -
anti-malarials can be taken by babies, but MMR can't be
taken before 10 months, otherwise the Mother's antibodies
just kill it - leaving you with no resistence - interesting.
- Amusingly failed to get elected due to the
not more than 4 people from Ximian on the board
rule; neat - an un-challengable record I suspect - every
year since the board started.
- Fixed some more interesting gtk/vcl bits,
the screenshots look just like OO.o with ugly icons,
(but more broken). Tested using NAS - worked nicely.
Locking is a nightmare without the gtk+ hooks.
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.
