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, kids to school; to work. Mail bits. Added Jon
to planet go-oo, though his mug-shot is clearly from a previous
beard-less existence.
- Amused by Excel 2007's calulation
oddities - does this lie behind some hedge-fund's sub-prime
problems ? Pleasingly calc (naturally) works just fine - one of the
few areas where even I think behaving as Excel does for improved
interop is a really bad idea.
- Pleased that Gartner seem to have their head screwed on
this week with Gartner declared open-source software the biggest
disruptor the software industry has ever seen
eweek.com - Amen.
- Lunch, team meeting, call with Miguel. Started
considering a change of focus for my UKUUG AGM talk tomorrow,
urgh writing new talk content is real work.
- Up late installing SL10.3 for demos tomorrow, for some
reason it wanted the later packages from the net instead of the
DVD: hopefully a feature-not-bug when released.
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.
