Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

Up early, less cold - the magic of timed central heating. Chewed mail, processed Gnome bugs, updated hackers guide with amusing tip from Will Lachance. More Gnome speech IDL reading. Fixed the bug causing Jaka problems in ggv, thanks to his (and Satyajit's) work.
Committed a couple more ORBit2 fixes for HP/UX - and got on with OpenOffice. Spent hours my banging head against LXR, Read the Private Eye instead:

400 New Countries to Join EU by 2007
- Over 400 countries are soon to become members of the European Union it was announced ... the lucky winners of the Eurovision Country Contest ... Signor Romano Freebie, ... hailed this as "a new dawn for Europe, when all the countries of this great continent are finally united by their dream of being subsidised by each other".
Finally discovered that I have to hard code bit fields, in decimal in an XML file to get the intended result [!]. Grief.
J. home, went for a run through town - it seems you go further / faster when there are landmarks to pass.
J. cut my hair (purr), JPs, bed early.

I encourage linking back (of course) to help people decide for 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.
