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.

Prodded mail, back into the bowels of PackageKit, seemingly
zypper::sat::WhatProvides returns packages in a random
order, and we're assuming the system installed ones always come
first - silly; but explains some apparent non-determinism. Wow - a
bug that requires some real algorithmic thought.

Pleased to see the Java / gtk+ file-selector patch
get into jdk7 - now I just need to find an evening to back-port &
test it; neato.

Great to see Lennart's Rethinking PID 1
really excited by the prospect of getting a new PID 1 - a really sexy
new design; As / when PackageKit is nailed, I must check it out. Also
a good contributor
policy: "We value your contributions and hence do not require
copyright assignment ".

Into Cambridge for dinner with Christian, really interesting
to catch up with him, back on the last train, bed late.
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.
