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, refreshed - poked at mail; set off various upgrades
etc. out to buy bits & pieces for St. Valentines day tomorrow -
pondering the non-appearance of the campaign to ban Valentines day as a
divisive Christian anachronism.
- Tested & updated / closed a number of NLD10 bugs.
Poked at evo 2.5 - filed blocker; poked at the OO.o/Evo connectivity piece.
Discovered -Wl,-hashvals can cause problems with the wrong ld - setting a
DT_SONAME to 'ashvals': nasty. Poked at Petr's 2nd-start / quick-starter
problem; urgh - another factory/multi-arg. inconsistency; nasty.
- Chased the main-menu crasher bug around and around. Poked a
little at Rodrigo's nice patch to make the panel applets start asynchronously,
should give a nice speedup. Dinner. Turns out most of the common panel
applets are shlibs anyway, and hence give no speedup for async activation.
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.
