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 Newmarket hospital for another
scan. Baby somewhat larger - can't see it all at once so
easily. Lots of ribs / backbone (British) showing - looks
like a primaeval fish from some angles. Yawned and waved for
the camera - thank God.
- Back, phoned Norwich Union to enquire why their
car insurance is £350 vs. Direct-Line ~£300, saved £50 -
good; read in the economist the pound is weakening, so my
salary is strengthening: good too.
- Prepped bonobo-activation and libbonobo for
release, poking at misc. issues. Spent forever chewing mail.
Battled the build system / stlport
interaction, updated the hackers guide, helped CoCo setup
another MacOSX OO.o tinderbox slave.
- Sent off a tiny D/BUS patch to make it build on
systems with no KDE libs at all, perhaps I should get some.
- Discovered the
rc install
command takes regexp
arguments: nice, and rc lock-add
for things you
don't want to update. You can also do rc up -i urgent
which is good.
- Found Jody's family website
bulging with photos.
- Made a fire, J. home, washing / cooking. Mary
arrived, had a lovely evening - she's a delightful old lady.
Bed late.

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.
