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.

- Up shockingly early; showered, broke our fast which the
amazing variety of interesting food Christian had provided. Then we
set off for the conference centre. It had snowed overnight and
we had a rather amusing time trying to get the rear wheel drive van
up the hill in the ice. We all pushed and rocked the car mightily,
I had a go at driving but all to no avail.
- Gave up and got the tram. Arrived, Alan did his talk,
then we sat around and ate and talked to Vadar the NUUK chairman
who seemed to have a somewhat encyclopaedic knowledge of all things
computer-related over a considerable time span.
- Did my talk carefully adjusted to a load of 'suits',
'GNOME today and tommorow' prefixed with Hebrews 13:8, suffixed
with Job 19:23.
- Then off to the university to do the talk again but
slightly more technicaly. There were loads of people,
perhaps the most I have spoken to in one room, 450 or so people.
Lots of questions, lots of interest. Great.
- Alan's talk was more interesting and technical the
2nd time which was good.
- Presented with Ping T-shirt, and a pewter beer mug
from NUUK; excellent. Off to bar to baptise the mug in free NUUK
beer.
- Eat and sleep.

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.
