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, warning churn reported during the smoketest,
unfortunately it doesn't work unless you use <vituperatives>
EPM, added some direct make_installer magic to the mix, shame
make_installer can only be run from 1 directory, with a very
tweaked environment. Hacked a number of nasties out of the
smoketest script, and now it installs & runs beautifully,
sadly didn't find the reported error though.
- Re-worked the cppuhelper patch to please Stefan,
did battle with templates again; apparently it's trivial to make
simple things more verbose, and far more complicated with them.
- Did more gutting on configmgr, partially rationalized
the 3 types doing the same thing: TreeAccessor, TreeAddress, and
sharable::TreeFragment with some success, more readable.
- Dinner, sogged with the Economist for a bit, more
hacking in bed - scuppered by switching TreeAddress to a POD
pointer type: resulted in several uninitialized members (now
there is no default constructor), eventually nailed that.
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.
