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.

Interested to read some anecdotal piece on
managing programmers; perhaps a surprise only to anyone that has never
been one: increasing the process barrier wherever possible has serious
costs, not least in quality & motivation of staff. Having said
that, a lack of concern for fixing serious bugs causes other problems.
-
Mail thrash, chat with Guy. Lunch, more mail. Tried to
reproduce the (prolly thermal) CPU hang I was suffering. A rash of
calls, DE meeting, chat with Jeremy.
-
Dinner, Alpha introduction here with Andy & Simon - it
seems we're running an Alpha course
at our home Wednesdays at ~7:30pm with meal, for the next few weeks;
all interested in attending most welcome; mail me. [ NB. being close to
Newmarket, UK helps substantially, linked web-site is shockingly poor;
bug filed ].
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.
