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, breakfast again; off to Joe's talk - nice slides,
some good points. Poked at gconf some more, to try to build a separate
simple list of what is touched at login time - which should be a tiny
fraction of the data. Lots of interesting stuff in the trace, mailed
some people to encourage them to pre-load directories where they
are not.

Why do we (apparently) load all the thumbnailer keys on startup ?
484 round-trips for that at least: interesting. Some interesting
un-necessary sets happening on login too.

Enjoyed the EyeOS talk, back to the booth, talked to people
at considerable length on every topic, got a few people interested
in the build service. Chatted to a chap with some beautiful python
library for generating ODF, helped pack up the booth.

Out for dinner with Christian, Jeff, Nathanial & co.
Daniel Philipps came for desert which was tasty, a most pleasant
evening.
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.
