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.

- 4 adjacent seats to sleep on on the flight back,
better than 1st class. Some work on the train, picked up by
the darling wife & daughters. Home, slept like one dead,
woken by door-bell, J. lost her key, glad I'm home.
- Lunch, Cheryl came over, chatted for a while -
back to work. The unusable kernel with I/O occuring bug
rumbles on inconclusively.
- Chewed through the memprof output for my report /
analysis. Hit a wonder of a class 'SfxNewHdl' that (apparently)
allocates 512 Kb and holds on to it, just in case there is some
out of memory condition, in which case it can free it - to release
some memory to throw up a warning dialog. A cunning plan indeed,
unfortunately a quick glance suggests it is never used. Looking
forward to actually doing the hacking to fix some of this.
- Worked late, finally drew all the bits together into
one document, looking nice, bed 11pm.
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.
