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 the convention center,
the heroic, friendly and abnormaly sexy AV technicians
had a 'mickey mouse' connector so I can charge my
laptop.
- Gave my brand new Gnome 2.0 talk, 28
people survived to the end, having prepared a 45minute
talk, discovered it was supposed to be 90 minutes long
half way through, tried to sustain the latter half & Q&A
until the end. Wait for the feedback forms; hmm.
- Returned the cable, and back to the booth;
lots of people & questions, fielded various people, went
to see the X.org chaps and their new media architecture,
talked to them about GStreamer & Gnome Meeting -
interesting. Hopefully they'll be at GUADEC III.
- Off to the Gnome foundation booth to sell
T-shirts, adhere stickers to unsuspecting passers by
etc. Showed off the newer, faster Nautilus, and the
accessibility code.
- Back to the booth, relieved various people,
told people I was 'knackered' - finally discovered (from
Anna) that they heard 'naked', deduced by inspection that
I was not in fact naked - to my great relief.
- Phoned Keelyn, who kindly re-arranged my
flight to Thursday, caught the train to Boston with the
other guys & talked to Kevin a fair bit - the company is
beggining to fill up with people whom I know not.
- Fixed a nasty libbonoboui bug with check
boxes, fixed up eog to the point where it can replace
Nautilus image-view.
- Polished up my bonobo-activation
accelerations, caught a couple of other sillies.
- Got to South Station, some drunk and out
of order guy on the T - very irritating, off at Kendal,
headed to the Barracks - good thing I accidentaly kept
the keys for the last few months. Met Radek and watched
the end of Aikira - somehow you notice the quality gap
on the 2nd viewing rather more. Bed, tired.

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,

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.
