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 for a conf-call with China, fun. Prodded beagled a
little, more mail. Customer direct call from Kelvin, re-directed
through the UK sales organisation, fun. Wrote minutes.
-
Lunch, Lydia over - admired her latest pottery creations.
Back, Kelli's staff, quick calls with Stefan & Jeff. Bathed
the babes, practiced the Piano with H. (improving nicely), and
put them all to bed. Back to chat with Guy later in the evening.

It seems that a chunk of some people's problem with beagle
may well be it indexing source directories in ~ - just reading all
those deep hierarchies to grok source files that no-one in the
right mind would want in beagle anyway is likely to blow your
dentry and inode caches and may everything else appear 'slow'.
Hopefully just adding a way of detecting a source directory:
RCS files + Makefile ? and pruning them in their entirety
would work nicely. Of course personally I have no problems, I
hack in /opt (no idea why, it's prolly not LSB compliant).
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.
