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.

Poked at bugs, good to see Federico's fixes for my two file-selector
issues. Got a lot of nice structural drawings in the post from Charles Tallack - soon there will be
steelwork everywhere it seems: amazing what can be done with a few 10cm
steel joists.
-
Tried to find a working E-mail address for someone and failed: the
second instance in two days - blog entries everywhere, photos, etc. but no
(functioning) address: how irritating - I imagine an increasingly common
problem - you can find people's detailed accounts of dental flossing, but
not how to mail them.

Lunch with Lydia. Buried under FATE mail from Guy. Annoyingly it
seems emacs wedges pretty hard when a11y is turned on under GNOME - why ?
last I looked stack-traces from emacs were not friendly. Managed to get
further with virt-manager/xen than ever before - looking nice; read some
of xenner.
-
Found & chased a nasty crasher in OO.o's png loader - why do
we have custom PNG loading code in OO.o instead of using libpng ?
perhaps quicker than the Sun/legal paperwork to get libpng included,
but certainly buggier ?
-
Cell group in the evening, only Simon & Lydia, good fun though.
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.
