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, prodded mail; pushed my bootchart2 slides:
Pinged by someone wrt. my comment in the slides on
Canonical's drive for (C) assignment, of course other companies
practise this - and I believe it is sub-optimal there too.
-
The openSUSE Survey is
open, considered feedback much appreciated. Sad to see Oracle lay-off
Willie Walker - accessibility
hero, and pianist.
-
Played with the Microsoft Office Live beta, web apps inside
Firefox on Linux. Curious indeed: while the spreadsheet zoom-in/out actually
worked in the browser - beating Google Doc's feebler attempt here; trying
to get a small
=SQRT(STDEV($A$1:A1, 3)) type block fill-out;
seemingly I wedged the server: "This workspace is too busy. Please try
again later" - presumably logged in the backend somewhere. One of the
nice things about web services (I suppose) is being able to watch your users,
and see what problems they hit, which bits they can't make work and
so on - to improve the product with.
-
Prodded the public Moblin tree, and fixed some annoying
build issues vs. 11.2.
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.
