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 early, pleased to read Joerg's nice
blog on speeding up the OO.o qatesttool - this is some fantastic
work. The more frequently we can run the full test suite, the
more frequently we will catch bugs in both the code, and the tests,
and the quicker we will iterate towards higher quality for both.
My hope is - that with more automation, and (of course preferably)
head-less, in-tree testing, we can increase the pace of integrations
and reduce the fear & uncertainty of change: good stuff.
- Chased an evo crash - turned out to be a missing
versioned dependency. Located the evo. crash on new appointment bug -
a division by zero, filed a few more bugs with Srini. Committed an
interesting ORBit2 fix from a J.Specht.
- Bruce & Anne over - Naomi's birthday, also Uncle
Anthony & Auntie Louis, sadly missed them due to over-conference-callage.
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.
