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.

Lazed in bed, playing with daughters etc. for a long time -
the start of two weeks of paternity leave; nice. J. took everyone on a
picnic while I finished up some queued work, before we quit tomorrow for
Aldeburgh.

Gotcha'd by perl's broken syscopy documentation, as apparently reported in
2002
bother. Interested in el-reg's reporting
of Verison's LiMo choice:
We chose LiMo because it's a collaborative effort. It's not just
one company runs the place. We like that. We like a collegial and
collaborative effort, where there is no barrier to entry on the
part of developers and, at the end of the day, there is no one
entity that can say 'OK, here's how we were playing now. The rules
are changed.'
LiMo will be our preferred OS because of this openness.
Whether sincere or not, I couldn't agree more. Give me a genuine,
open, plural community any day over a single vendor dominated one.

Finally created the first draft of a paper on culture I've been
meaning to get to for a while. Knocked off to play with returning kids,
have dinner, bathe them & put to bed.
-
Hunting around for keys to car roof-box, eventually located
them; fitted box, un-packed all manner of wonderful things from Julia's
friend - moving away, with lots to give away.
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.
