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 (too) earlyish. Poked at repairing the
laptop, suspending likes to kill the X server (ati binary
driver), and not suspend. Finally got a bus to the
conference, sadly missing Ross' talk.
- Various talks, Federico's keynote:
interesting. Lunch, Chris Blizzard's "do a firefox"
with OO.o, convinced that OO.o is an extraordinarily
different and harder problem - with a huge UI vs.
the browser; but he has some good point; thought
required.
- Out for ice-cream with Tuomas, met Onne
back, caught up with Iain, fonts meeting - interesting
stuff. Re-compiled mono with the pthread TLS code -
seemingly even the saner forms of NPTL TLS are not
happy with late loaded libmono.
- Off to the Maemo party, great to catch
up with the various lads behind everything; good
to sync with j5; out for drinks with Rob, mathrick
& others afterwards; great to hear the PalmSource
story in a nutshell. Back at 1am to work on talk.
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.
