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.

- Serious trouble getting up for the dentist. Went to see the
chap, at a cost of only 20UKP he fiddled in my mouth; excellent, no pain
yet. I had to summarise my biography for him to a sheet of paper, have
your boots been in a foreign dentists in the last month ? etc.
- Mail, some people are thinking about sizing; good.
- Worked on CORBA shrinkage all day; much fun, understand more
of the ORBit internals now, I still don't see why it is the fastest ORB.
Managed to get stuff marshaling beautifuly for in parameters.
- My brother told me a good joke; shock. What do you call a
device for seeing through walls ? a window ...
- Totaly re-wrote my marshaling method, and added demarshaling,
spent a while fixing things and low and behold ... it doesn't work =) oh
well at least it still marshals correctly. Looked for supporting data; it
seems the current Bonobo Stubs/Skels are 1Mb in size; far, far too large.
- Had a nice chat to Miguel about all manner of things Gnomish,
excellent. More hacking, discovered again that I am a moron, fixed
de-marshaling. Now just return values to fret about, an idl compiler back-
end to write and scads of testing to do.
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

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.
