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, J. not feeling wonderful, to work. Very pleased
today to get some ooo-build / OSX fixes from Patrick under the
JCA.
- The WinXP machine I need to test some interop problem
has (magically) been "Installing update 6 of 8 ." for the last 2
hours (with occasional change of legend: "Do not turn off or
unplug your computer"... Not encouraging, it makes zen-updater
look like greased lightning, particularly since (I believe) the
updates are pre-downloaded anyway.
- Spent some time poking at mono and the odf-converter,
updating to HEAD proved to be another world of pain, quite without
changing anything. Merged the Win32 / OSX build changes to
odf-converter-0.0.6, filed more patches at sf.net.
- Poked Tor, it seems he fixed
the unhelpful mono mkbundle2 problem whereby the result was
completely standalone except for a random machine.config
file: nice work.
- Tried to file expenses, some new funky Oracle system
involved: did the various training modules & quiz, some delay
until it's available unfortunately.
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.
