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.

Poked at bugs, good to see Federico's fixes for my two file-selector
issues. Got a lot of nice structural drawings in the post from Charles Tallack - soon there will be
steelwork everywhere it seems: amazing what can be done with a few 10cm
steel joists.
-
Tried to find a working E-mail address for someone and failed: the
second instance in two days - blog entries everywhere, photos, etc. but no
(functioning) address: how irritating - I imagine an increasingly common
problem - you can find people's detailed accounts of dental flossing, but
not how to mail them.

Lunch with Lydia. Buried under FATE mail from Guy. Annoyingly it
seems emacs wedges pretty hard when a11y is turned on under GNOME - why ?
last I looked stack-traces from emacs were not friendly. Managed to get
further with virt-manager/xen than ever before - looking nice; read some
of xenner.
-
Found & chased a nasty crasher in OO.o's png loader - why do
we have custom PNG loading code in OO.o instead of using libpng ?
perhaps quicker than the Sun/legal paperwork to get libpng included,
but certainly buggier ?
-
Cell group in the evening, only Simon & Lydia, good fun though.
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.
