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.

- Slept well, up early, continued trying to get my
laptop into some sort of current state for demoing action.
Built dev-help, switched more stuff between XD2 and Gnome 2
snapshots.
- Dan Williams setup an OO.o OOO_STABLE_1_PORTS
tinderbox slave building for MacOSX nicely, good man. Chewed
my inbox - nother earth-shattering. cups' pstoraster screwed
up my machine - again, using 500Mb of RAM and going strong.
- Had great fun trying to build monkey-media
against the clock, what a laugh. Off to Newmarket Station
to catch a train to Brussels.
- Tried to get gstreamer to scale video without
XVideo support at some length - a right pain. Got to the
Eurostar eventually - the incompetance of the chunnel
security setup is incredibly painful to suffer. Amusingly
the toilet door decided to savage my thumb, lovely -
relatively painful.
- On with writing the talk / tutorial. Sadly
stuck behind a set of loud and outwardly vacuous ladies -
busily doing their nail varnish (gassing us all). I'm glad
I know that all this effort is designed to pamper to the
male psyche - amazing that they're that interested.
- Got to the hotel, met Matthew - the Dasher man
and two of his friends just arrived from Cambridge.
Out for an Indian meal with Jakub - good to see him again,
bed, early.

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.
