Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
SUSE 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 unfeasibly late, is that the sleep debt ? breakfast,
checked mail. It was a sad day when my friend GregKH, veteran of
many absorbing SUSE initiatives, decided to
leave SUSE
for a dream job at the Linux Foundation. Sad (perhaps) to see
less of him, though naturally he will continue doing cool stuff at the
Linux Foundation. Imagine my surprise and pleasure to see the start
of this new, rich seam of awesomeness in his first
patch
set to LibreOffice which arrived last night. Of course, we value
all our contributors, especially new ones - without them we'd be nothing;
here's a snapshot of Ohloh's nice
statistics (though the 'first commit after two months' stuff is clearly
barking):
The lines removed/added also shows a rather pleasing direction of
change, given that we're adding features. Truly, the easy
hacks are easy. Want to be where the cool kids are ? why not try one ?
Failing that, simply mentioning that
you "use" LibreOffice
might help to redress a historical imbalance, and lack of an 'un-use'
button.

Idle catch-up; took babes to music lessons, early dinner, J.
out, chat with Kohei, and worked through mail for much of the evening.
My content in this blog and associated images / data under
images/ and data/ directories are (usually)
created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under
the public domain, and/or if that doesn't float your boat a CC0
license. I encourage linking back (of course) to help people decide for
themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of SUSE, 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
or fun.
