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; amused to see that only a really
tedious part of the 'libwpd'
spec. I wrote was of any interest. Perhaps it's not clear
I'm mocking the whole concept of needing a content-free spec.
to integrating this (obviously excellent & appreciated)
feature. eg. from the (mandatory) goals section:
The goal is to enleverage active, XML-based, Java
community enhanced, meta-ldap specifications to
provide mega-enhanced, goal-congruent,
volenteer-driven, apache-powered, 'Open Source',
WordPerfect file import.
- Got on with enleveragerating the team's efforts.
My build stuffed with back-ported magic finished, installed
& ran nicely (so far); good.
- The evolution 2.1.x snapshots seem to have stopped
bothering to deliver mail via SMTP, except on a cold restart;
I wouldn't mind but having got out of bed to reply to an urgent
mail (on my mind last night), it was galling to see it in the
Outbox (with 7 others) this morning.
- Amusing story of a busy vets surgery, where the
floor was held up only by the thick lino on top - the joists
crumbling in ones hand etc.
- The sweetheart returned with two lovely baby
girls, some heart-warming hugs etc. Had a most encouraging
conference call in the evening. Out to cell group, bed late.

created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under

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),

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.
