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.

- JP pointed me at Keith Packard's
take on Git which makes me
take it seriously for OO.o suddenly, an interesting read.
- It seems the mail downtime suffered on wal-3 was
a result of some Thunderbird / Groupwise IMAP interaction, and
nothing to do with Evolution at all; sorry for doubting you
Evolution (& team).
- Lunch, poked at misc Gnome bugs. Finally removed
the huge & multi-year old internal-nss cut/paste patch,
required for back-compatibility for systems without some
internal crypto symbol being exported; should shrink the
ooo-build archive nicely.
- Tried to extract E-trade data for payroll; E-trade
is monumentally broken for people without a brokerage account,
for some strange reason I feel insecure finding bugs in a web /
trading application holding my money.
- Banged away at configmgr, ported my re-factoring
to 2.1, resolving tons of conflicts from my (now up-stream)
string re-work.
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.
