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.

More bootchart2 hacking, and some repsnapper pieces, fixed misc. bugs, packaged for openSUSE. In a fantastic irony, I spent fifteen minutes chasing a C++ bug whereby I had declared a bogus return type of std::string that I didn't return; it turns out gcc with no -Wall is almost as lame as python in that regard. Discovered a number of other sillies eg. people assuming the compiler will do string uniquification and they can do: if ("Pause" == "Pause") type things (with some added indirection) in C.
Prepped for E.'s 2nd birthday tomorrow. J. made a fantastic dragon cake.

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.
