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 at 2am - dreaded itch, worked 'till 4
on my tutorial, still can't sleep. Snoozed fitfully
before breakfast.
- To the conference, Owen's talk quite good.
Sat around writing more slides. Got lunch with Jeroen,
talked to the Gentoo guy: Daniel Robbins.
- Gave a rather shambolic talk; no CORBA
stuff, did some thumbnailing stuff etc. slides to follow,
met Kriss - of gtk+ fame, good guy.
- Back to the Gnome room, spoke to the GNU step
people to determine how they do distributed object lifecycle
stuff, interesting, apparently ref-counting as well, but they
'simply' ref after an XP ref transfer, opening a P2P connection
to the process, which does per cnx. ref tracking. Didn't quite
ask the right questions though.
- Off to the hackers room to sync mail, talked to
David Axmark from MySQL, and a chap from Postgres, also
Alasdair Kergon in passing.
- Met Nicholas Spalinger, a nice Christian chap out to a nice restaurant
nearby with all the Gnome guys, had a nice chat to Glynn,
onto a nearby bar opposite the illuminated cathedral -
lovely. Walked back to the hotel, bed late.

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.
