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, out to the go-oo GSOC panel session - extremely
encouraged to see all the great work that was done, and see our students
have a chance to pitch their work. For those of a Feminist bent, that
are as amused as I am with these numbers - we had six students, three
male, three female. Three ladies successfully completed the project,
and one male - somewhat staggering. I wonder if the aggregated
success metrics by gender across all GOSC projects are published.
-
On to Oliver's talk, somehow waylaid by Stefan and sadly
missed Noel's - somehow I find tech talks really encouraging:
summarising all the hard fought features of the last year.
-
Out for lunch with GSOC students, though couldn't find
Donna (sadly) - that managed to run over Fridrich's talk,
interrupted by a PM conf-call, etc.

Pleasant tour of the town in the gathering dusk, good
conversation, lots of very beautiful things everywhere; down
some tunnels. Off to a restaurant for dinner, got to know Maya
a little. Sorrowful farewells, and back to bed.
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.
