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 with some of the guys from
last night - dead on the feet. Got on with the next talk,
after some considerable - applied panicing we (Jeff &
Glynn and I) put together something.
- Gave our talk - no slides provided - it transpired
all the audience were hackers; preaching to the completely
converted - degenerated into something of a farce.
- Introduced Thomas and Nat; got a text + braille
business card from him. Later talked to Dragi and Remus and
poked over some gnopernicus code with them.
- Talked to Owen & Havoc wrt. gtk+ mainloop
integration into OO.o, apparently metacity is the place to
steal the hooks from. Pleased that Owen used OO.o instead of
MagicPoint for his talk this time. Talked to DV - told him
we made OO.o link vs libxml (via. gnome-vfs) and debated
what is a Gnome application.
- Met Robert O'Dea in passing, talked
to Miguel about Mono / Evolution. At least he is not like the
other fans of new systems for code re-use; all of whom tend to
start by saying You need to re-write everything in our
new really re-usable language.
- Alan Cox's talk was interesting; talked to Hans
Muller for a bit - good chap, before flying. Met pzb at the
airport and flew with him to Stanstead - interesting guy.
- Back home via a circuitous route (broken Stanstead
directions), finally got to J. so lovely to be home again;
bite to eat, she'd made a lovely birthday cake for me.
Unwrapped a number of lovely presents; bed. Great to be back
home.

In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my

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.
