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.

legacy html
- Up early, chewing mail. Tried to commit
Arjan's canvas layout patch - doesn't seem to fix the
problem sadly, banged my head against it for a while.
It seems the canvas needs re-writing to not inherit
from GtkLayout.
- Hacked away at finding various resource
reference leaks inside the ORB ... finaly chased them
all down ( it seems ); great. We now have somewhat
strong resource tracking debugging, excellent. Sent
a huge patch to Mark.
- Went shopping. Nailed the final few obvious
ORBit2 ref counting bugs, moved higher up the stack.
Moved some of the shutdown stuff into bonobo-activation
and sent a patch to Maciej, freed the base services
inside bonobo-activation, and sent another patch; hmm.
- Auspex pointed me to the
HDF format as
a possible compound document storage thing, no time to
look - this area is very non-productive it seems to me,
and ripe for standardization.
- Back to libbonoboui and control wierdness,
drasticaly rationalized the evil control frame / socket
mutual referencing issues. Building up a beefy patch.
- J' arrived back, time for Tea.
- Went out to a rather superior restaurant
that we often run by nearby. First rate food, fine wine,
excellent company - 30UKP total, extremely cheap.
- Back home, bed.

It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences
