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, wandered around the Trinity hall
green in the morning sun - lovely. Off to see Alan Kay - the same
thesis - Everything has been done already, if that is true,
it's a real shame that it didn't survive / turn into something good
now - or did it ? why not.
- Got on-line, pushed some updated OO.o packages to QA,
poked at bug reports; updated my system etc. Talked to Hans Muller
from Sun, hacked frenetically at my talk; interrupted just after it was
supposed to start; got set up. Rambled incoherently for an hour,
some people doodled at the same time. Slides here (
sxi).
- Got the low-down on Frank Rehberger's xtradyne company and it's CORBA
proxying / firewall / misc. products; sounds good. Met The
Frederic Crozat - who looks totally unlike his IRC nick.
- Henri grabbed me to talk about OO.o integration with
his content management solution;
sounded interesting - they use webdav - so presumably not impossibly
difficult either.
- Off for a lock-down meeting with various general heros.
Afterwards had a lengthy meeting with Peter K and the Baum folks
(& got to know Thomas, Draghi, Adi, Pal, Remus better ), good to
see Oliver from Hamburg again; and meet Ralf and Malte.
- Finally off to the Ximian party for a swift guinness; got
an accessible egg-cup from Peter (for showing an interest in a11y [ start
hacking today, and you too ... ] a kind thought indeed). Then onto the
pseudo-Italian restaurant opposite. A most fun evening; got some amusing
flying stories from Thomas, and Bill's medical research stuff very droll.
- Rolled back to bed, met Mia & Tuomas on the way, chatted,
Federico & Oralia strolled past, highly convivial. Bed too late.

It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences
