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.

- Put a load of work into my project, since the first part
of this is remote bootstrapping a corba service I decided to pass the
name service IOR via HTTP which is nice. Then I started looking into
the cos-naming interface borrowing chunks of code from libgnorba,
particularly gnome-name-service. Talk about stylistic inelegance,
leaks, redundant lines, bad formatting, great cut and pasted blocks of
code. It all makes my heart very heavy, I'm glad libgnorba has been
re-written, up with the Oaf. On the other hand, some of the ORBit
looks nice which is pleasing.
- Shopped a lot, it's amazing quite how many weetabix can be
consumed in a week. Marveled at an undetected housemate's ablutions,
seemingly water should be passed everywhere but the bowl. This is the
real reason DNA testing was developed in the first instance.
- Groveled ( again ) to Mike Kestner who I now remember has
been working on a better sheet move / copy dialog for a while ( having
committed Dom's yesterday ), bother.
My content in this blog and associated images / data under

created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under

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 Collabora, SUSE,
Novell, The Document Foundation, Spaghetti Hurlers (International),

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.
