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, prodded mail; pushed my bootchart2 slides:
Pinged by someone wrt. my comment in the slides on
Canonical's drive for (C) assignment, of course other companies
practise this - and I believe it is sub-optimal there too.
-
The openSUSE Survey is
open, considered feedback much appreciated. Sad to see Oracle lay-off
Willie Walker - accessibility
hero, and pianist.
-
Played with the Microsoft Office Live beta, web apps inside
Firefox on Linux. Curious indeed: while the spreadsheet zoom-in/out actually
worked in the browser - beating Google Doc's feebler attempt here; trying
to get a small
=SQRT(STDEV($A$1:A1, 3)) type block fill-out;
seemingly I wedged the server: "This workspace is too busy. Please try
again later" - presumably logged in the backend somewhere. One of the
nice things about web services (I suppose) is being able to watch your users,
and see what problems they hit, which bits they can't make work and
so on - to improve the product with.
-
Prodded the public Moblin tree, and fixed some annoying
build issues vs. 11.2.
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.
