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; H. who it seems has gone into volcanoe mode errupted
this morning. At least you have stretches of calm and cleanliness.
Also, slept right through the night - which is great. Chewed mail.
Nice initial ORB re-factoring from Frank. Processed misc. bug and
user reports.
- Started reviewing the gconf chapter in the Gnome book,
only 2 more to go. Dug at Justin's interesting ORB issues. Lunch,
H. has decided it's fun to hold Dad's finger, shove it in her mouth
have a chew, pull out - check for plastic deformation, repeat.
- Finally up-loaded libbonobo-2.4.2 - giving up on making
'make distcheck' pass - the _inst stuff screwed the tests badly.
Downstairs to discover a mother and baby group in full-swing, the
lounge stuffed with people and babies in various stages of distress.
Met an old hand from CCMS, now married to Chris Reed, bearing news
of old friends.
- Spent a while trying to understand how X compose
modifiers work - with no success, discovered one can badly screw
almost everything (particularly backspace) with
gkb_xmmap cz
(eg.) eventually realized that people expecting LANG=zh_EN.UTF-8 style
things to do something sensible are smoking crack.
- Fixed various minor OO.o bugs, and set a new build
running. Music group practice cancelled tonight. JPs / bed early.

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,

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.
