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.

- Bright & early morning; to work. Mailed the OO.o
performance list, Kay & Stephan with my 'push all exceptions into
their own library' & load that RTLD_GLOBAL, then link all modules
RTLD_LOCAL (amazingly sucky - but this is what the g++ exception
madness drives us to). Unclear how to tag libraries as being 'clean'
in this way [ only throwing/catching known-at-compile-time UNO
exceptions ]; '.int.uno.so' ? '.iuno.so' ? or something more cunning.
Of course dlopening the library to see how it should be dlopened is
not sensible.
- Improved my un-filed patches statistics by re-assigning
bits, fixing markup, and even filing a few bits up-stream. Upgraded
B9 on the laptop, installed it on another couple of boxes - looking
really nice; filed several bugs.
- Poked Xgl again - working on my Thinkpad / ATI M7 nicely,
but only for the difficult stuff: as long as you want alpha blended,
cubeoidal, sexy switching stuff all is well. As soon as you do
something in the (normal) head-on, single display mode - nasties
happen; poked David.

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.
