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; committed most of the OO.o work to
Gnome CVS, module 'openoffice' to help collaberative working;
added a 'download' script, to allow single-command fetch of
all relevant packages; looking a lot easier to build now.
- Poked at the really nasty g_mutex_trylock issues
with binaries on Solaris/FreeBSD not linked vs -lthread, but
linking in ORBit2 which needs threading support. It seems that
for non threaded apps, we can ignore the thread methods not
doing anything, but trylock just returns bogus nonsense in the
uninitialized mode. Talked to Owen / binned the debugging
trylock stuff outside of Linux.
- More work on the new public, partially auto-toolized
Gnome openoffice. Started moving that into new snapshot builds.
- Ryan and Nancy came around, sad to see them for the
last time; they brought Pizza for us which was great. A little
more relaxed sniping at Ryan wrt. gun ownership, played with H.
very sorry to be loosing them back to the US.
- Burped with Hannah while reading 3:16, fixed up some
sillies in the snapshot build / re-started it. Wrote a status
report, bed.

themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
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,
Novell, The Document Foundation, Spaghetti Hurlers (International),
or anyone else.
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.
