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, breakfast, J. and R. off in the
rain rather later than normal. X had flaked overnight, just
getting slews of vertical bars of garbage, re-started to
no avail. Chewed mail. Nice to see intelligent recruitment
being done on the Mono lists for clueful VB/C# developers.
- The 8.0 X server flaked in the middle of a
package update; perhaps it's missing some crucial interrupt
due to IDE problems, hmm, pulled the RawHide 4.2 packages:
MGA G400 AGP - they require too much of a complete new
system. Switched to 16bpp to see if that helps.
- Some nice patches from Wipro, improving the
IPv6 support of linc / ORBit2 - good stuff, also some
nice bonobo work from Gustavo. Helped Julian get OO643C
built, must update the hackers guide to be clearer.
- Discovered Gustavo's
NumExp project - which looks most interesting.
- J. and R. home, quick JP dinner, and out to
see the Chinese state Circus - an all human circus
visiting. Apart from their glowing gimmic vendors (made in
Taiwan?) - the performance was excellent. The 2 man 'dragons',
walking on huge balls, quite amazing. An impressive lady
contortionist, and stack of chairs. Good clean fun. 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.
