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.

- Pleased by the extraordinary
Cormorant poem - Mother is learning - better said than read
though. Document massage & posting; set off back to Newmarket.
- Long drive, quick lunch, long phone call. More mail,
poked at a panel issue. Out to buy printer ink & new journals.
Dinner. Read and tried to understand the recently posted external contribution
guidelines, curious - up late.
- Amused by the classic excuse for poor software engineering
(it's saved my personal bacon several times):
by As far as Windows 7 goes, I'm looking forward
to it being a more visible demonstration of how the fundamental
architectural changes in Windows Vista are actually the platform's
biggest innovation. - it may be late, buggy, and un-sellable, but
boy - if only you could read/understand the beautiful architecture!
Having said that, sometimes it's even true. Some claim that even breaks backwards binary compatibility, can it
really be ?
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.
