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.

- To work - why, oh why did I suspend my machine overnight
instead of leaving it building ? PC World service-man arrived (the
shame of it) for the inlaw's machine; nice man - diagnosed the obvious
(but knew which pins to short with pliars on the ATX power connector),
ordered parts & left again.
- Closed bugs incrementally until hit 99 left; good. Decided
that the apalling performance of collab.net's OO.o infrastructure
[ many minutes of waiting to simply file a bug ] must be a cunning
team building tactic: by create a common enemy, one can build camaraderie
amongst fellow sufferers. Of course, perhaps having 1 hand nailed to
the table would do the same, with a similar impact on productivity.
- Did some binutils patch polish to please our maintainer,
whitespace changes: nice. Braved upgrading primary machine... survived
the upgrade experience: rather a fine result in fact; filed more bugs.

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.
