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.

- Started reading mail; oh dear. Fixed libole2
bug I had left over Christmas, gack.
- Chewed lots of mail. Brought my system up to
the cutting edge again.
- John Platten working for DigiCool ( who had spent
some time in the past bothering me in an attempt to get me to
do a very simple task for him ) has just sent me a tar.gz of his
changes. These extend to useful feature additions like - removing the
original authors header; re-indenting the code non-KnR, removing
debugging code, killing all the GtkDoc API documentation, inserting
hundreds of invalid '//' commenting out lines. Apparently working
on 'Dublin' or something. Extremely peeved. Added explicit
copyright notices in those modules missing them. He didn't even use
the changes I made to help him, probably due to his mangling.
- Started tracking a theme related bug in bonobo pixmap
alpha transparency; need some themes I suppose.
- Committed a fix to oaf-slay to stop it killing certain
shared library components.
- It seems John was only showing me the code to demo
his scheme for fixing it; oh, perhaps I was just in a bad mood this
morning or something.
- Did a gb release to ease my mental confusion.

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

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),
or anyone else.
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.
