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, chewed mail, tended the tinderbox.
Gustavo seems to be doing some interesting work on bonobo -
great. Talked to KeithP about why X works, and fontconfig
a little. Back to bed.
- Up later, paid another government bill.
Submitted my GUADEC talk abstract - other people it seems are
planning to submit seconds before the deadline. Out to lunch
with some passing relatives in-law - Tim and Julie on their
way back from holiday. Ordered baby-room carpet on the way,
had a nice meal, Anthony and Louise arrived too. Back home
in the rain / hail.
- Gave my laptop a major facelift - poor old
machine, it can at least run sexy software. Finally binned
my gnome-1.4 prefix to free up disk space; said goodbye to
'oaf', 'SIAG support for gnumeric' patch etc.
- Set off to pick up J. from Cambridge. Drove down
to my parents' - M25 the clearest I've seen it in recent
times, no significant delays.
- Good to see Mum & Dad and Thomas, stayed up
late watching The Green Mile - an interesting, but
seemingly more haphazard mishmash than The Shawshank
Redemption. 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.
