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 extremely extraordinarily early, mailed J
and stuff.
- Hacked on my tutorial, shower, breakfast.
Got a safe deposit box, to deposit my safes in - rather
frightening regulations on the thing though.
- Lots of very tedious talk on gnome 2 list
about extending the libgnome freeze deadlines, and screwing
about with lots of the work that has gone in to carefuly
prune crud APIs out and put them in a compat library.
Grief ! sit back and watch your work unravel.
- Had a look at fixing some gnome 2.0 canvas issues
for my demo.
- Managed to photocopy my talk, made 30 copies,
expecting 25 people - 10 extras turned up, and amazingly
managed to keep most of them there for 3 hours. Pleased
with the talk as a whole. Slides are here, a
link to Hillaire's python tutorial. Also the
lisp to make C-x 4-h do gtk-doc style comment headers. You need
to put
(load "~/gnome-doc.el")
in your ~/.emacs file and
re-start.
- Overall went well.
- Back to the booth, met the guys - absorbed a pep talk.
- Met Bill Haneman, and tried to get bonobo-activation
to build on Solaris - no joy; scuppered in several directions,
mostly in system headers, -Werror should be a per user CFLAGS
option, as all right thinking people know.
- Spent a long time there, the accessibility stuff is
looking sweet though overall. Deserted by Ximian, lost my laptop,
off for dinner with Bill, bed early exhausted.

In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my

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.
