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, scanned mail; poked packaging bits and an interesting
calc performance issue. Back to Evolution, submitted a couple of OSCON
abstracts. Prodded vuntz idly (apparently working hard at fixing UI
issues).
-
Prodded at Evolution some more, discovered I had configured
IMAP-X but was not using it; hence suspicious stability - actually
turned it on properly, and got more fun churning debug, but it still
worked: surely new code is supposed to break ? Ran my calendar and
addressbook daemons under valgrind, which as a side-effect exposes
any latency problems rather nicely.
-
Wrestled GVariant (of a version that works) into GDBus, having
discovered that glib's GVariant is still a partial merge-in-progress
version. Dinner.
-
Back for some late-night hackery; seemingly part of my threading
problems was a bug in GVariant, and the other part was not initializing
dbus threading; fixed that. Renamed everything to EDBus (etc.) for re-use
in Evolution 2.29.
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.
