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 early, off to see the Justice of the Peace (JP)
that lives across the road - to get her to sign my passport
photos certifying that it is in fact a true likeness of me etc.
what fun.
- Processed some mail, caught the train in the rain.
Hacked away at ORBit2, realized that it was all nicely
virtualized anyway - without me having to worry about it all -
or is it ?
- Fixed a scad of widget re-rendering problems in
libbonoboui - some clown was calling gtk_widget_draw in an
expose method: hmm. Discovered a whole load of new work to do
in libbonoboui - if only it worked well enough to be able to
test new code / forward ported stuff.
- Got home, committed a load of small but nice bits.
- Dinner. After much painful oafd debugging - having
trapped it into being good, discovered the ORB bug causing the
activation context problems. ORBit_object_get_connection being
(confusingly) a macro, and non_existant returning TRUE for local
objects that hadn't been remoted yet - the price of optmization.
- Reported a nasty deadlock in Gtk+/glib causing
serious grief for anyone doing GUI gubbins inside a GUI
event callback - the joys of thread safety.
- Bed somewhat late, I wonder where J' has got to.
My content in this blog and associated images / data under

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.
