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, managed to forget to frank my ticket on the tram and get
fined; sigh - if only the lady had been able to sell me a three day
pass instead of three singles.
-
Met Kalman at the conference, and wandered the conference
talking to misc. people. On to Stefan's test-ability talk, encouraging
to see the unit testing work I prototyped in 2008 (and subsequently
broken by the three-layer-izing of OO.o, and tons of stop-energy) is
finally being taken seriously, and good progress being made.
-
Lunch with Rene & Kendy, on to Moritz' talk on bridge
building - amusing. On to see some demos of the latest MS Office
bling from Moritz (which is impressive), a few amusing bugs in
OO.o. Prodded the horrible formula support in MSO 2010 - cut &
paste a formula from Word to Excel, and re-size it: you get a
low-res bitmap, complete with cleartype artifacts, fun.
-
Interviewed a great candidate for our OO.o team. Out
for an interesting & pleasant dinner in the evening. Onto
a pub for somedrinks, and back to our hotel room until insanely
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.
