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 nice and early, back into the routine,
chewed mail. Local server totally unresponsive again,
suspected CUPS pstoraster swallowing all the RAM -
rebooted it; tragic, roll on 2.6 and a better VM
system.
- Most impressed to get the CD's from John
in the morning post, half a day & a night order
to hand - very good. Backed up lots of stuff off the
laptop.
- Annoyed by the upgrade; it seems that the
Ximian packages ship with the same
Name,Version,Release,Epoch,Arch (NVREA), and didn't
much like me upgrading the system under them.
- Pulled all the Gnome 1.4 stuff out, and
went for the Evo-1.3.X snapshots ... they die on
startup quite nicely; evolution-1.3
evolution:Inbox/local seems to fix that. What it
is to be using ultra-unstable development snapshots.
- J. arrived home, pasta, and off to Unit 11.
Lots of
mess to clear out from downstairs, re-arranged,
swept the foor. The plumbers trying to stop the radiator
system from leaking profusely.
- Daniel balancing up a ladder painting a
girder with anti-condensation paint
upstairs, getting ready so the carpet can be
laid tomorrow.
- J. back from shopping with dohnuts, made
tea and coffee for everyone. Back home - it seems we
got an immense packet of loo-roll to wipe through.
Unpacked, bed.

It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
