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 lateish; wired some money back to Ximian - it's not
often you get to pay your employer. Tried to rouse a sysadmin to fix
ooo.ximian.com - which seems to have had all it's http traffic
killed by ops; no-one available.
- Set about moving the oo.o packages to a bigger server.
Highly frustrated by emacs 21 being completely useless in a
patronising way with vc-mode not letting you edit a patch checked
into CVS (at all). After some pain discovered (setq vc-handled-backends nil)
in my ~/.emacs, allows me to C-x C-q and edit the patch. Emacs:
5 years of non-improvement; use version 20.
- Poked at the alpha stuff again at some length; it's never
quite as easy as people make things sound. JBZ arrived eventually,
upped the ooo traffic allowance, saturated that - discovered a
mis-behaving squid process, connected to only corona and pipeline;
very odd.
My content in this blog and associated images / data under
images/ and data/ directories are (usually)
created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under
the public domain, and/or if that doesn't float your boat a CC0
license. I encourage linking back (of course) to help people decide for
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.
