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.

- H. slept for a 7hour block last night, wow - so pleased
we both got up to change / feed her. Back to bed, up later, chewed
mail, started digging at Gnome 2.4 for Zurich.
- Another zombie rpm instance, broken/leaked rpm locks -
this time on my other RH9 machine - straced rpm, to discover it
opening mtab, and statting all the mount points; I guess that's
inevitable.
- Finally pushed an ooo1.1-....38 package fixing the
Format, Character viciousness to ooo-snapshot. Chased an evo.
bug Mathieu was having, and finally clobbered it.
- Fixed a very nasty set of problems causing pain with
2nd time OO.o launch feedback, seems to work nicely now, need a
full re-build to verify though. Fixed an annoying crashrep setup
script problem in OO.o, good. The jhbuild of Gnome 2.4 (evil SED
problem aside) seems to be going quite well; modulo constant
problems requiring re-configuration.
- Spent a manic time booking, and moving flights around
and trying to organise hotels. Amazingly many airlines don't let
you book a flight from somewhere not in your current locale; so
Hamburg to Zurich by BA/KLM has to be booked auf Deutsch, luckily
Lufthansa has a saner web-site (modulo a mandatory account creation
step).
- Told J. I was so glad to have a wonderful baby, and a
wife to boot. J. said she didn't want booting, clearly a bootiful
girl.
- Myriam and Mary around for dinner, Myriam has interesting
news - to try to cram in before she flies to Cambodia, nice to see
them both. Bed early.

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.
