Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit
Collabora
Productivity a subsidiary of Collabora focusing on LibreOffice support and
services for whom I work.
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.
Failing that, there are all manner of interesting things to read on
the LibreOffice Planet news
feed.

- Day of rest, supposed to be anyhow. Unfortuately it seems I managed
to screw up a young ladies fortunes by sending her a card she assumed was from
someone else, this is going to cost me a fortune in flowers.
- Good sermon at Church, nice variation of the 'intrisic / extrinsic
worth' question on 'Equality'. I seem to remember somewhere holding 'these
truths as self evidant that all men are created equal in the sight of God'. It
struck me that since it is abundantly clear that we are not equal in the
sight of man, that in order to form a reasonable, equitiable society we need
God ( not that this is a great surprise hey ) or at least some absolute. Clearly
a nice wooley feeling that people should be equal is not sufficient.
- Contemplated the gb object re-write and became futher convinced that
it is vital, and better still that it can be split into the obvious bit and the
debatable bit, thus smoothing implementation.
- Managed to totally screw up my system by installing the new,
wonderful, not backwards compatible libpopt-1.5; great. Of course, having
removed the old rpm, it turns out to be impossible to install it again since
rpm needs a sane libpopt. Doh, should have seen this coming a mile off.

In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Collabora, SUSE,

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.
