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.

Woken by PR person reminding me of an interview in 40mins
elsewhere - nice job ! lightning dressing, travelling, demo prep
action. Interesting and thought provoking interview, lift with
Ignacio to the conference.
-
Met up with Jesus - doing cool work with OO.o cross-compilation,
it seems he's really close now, neat. Caught up with Guy; on to Nick's
funky Moblin talk. Quick calls with Kendy & Florian.

Extremely pleased by the Microsoft
CP
action around Mono - personally I think they rock for doing that.
Of course, some will immediately start examining the gift horse's
dental state - while doing that, it is good to examine IBM's
rather similar covenant (NB. cf. the footnotes at the bottom),
and Sun covenant
is (credit where due) the best practice here - though apparently
only available for ODF. Of course - perhaps we should have an arms
race in ever-better, clearer, more comprehensive patent covenants
from big companies around standards. Should the OSI / SLFC have a
stock, recommended text to use ? personally I think the MS one is
briefer and more readable than IBM's, go Microsoft !
My content in this blog and associated images / data under

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.
