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; poked mail quickly, added a few more Easy Hacks - we seem to have a good set of free ones just now.
Nursed test Win32 builds with Fridrich; Sebastian helped shrink theme wasteage. Lunch, and out to Hannah's Christmas play - very good fun, you can do more with the older children.
Back, it seems we saved ~70Mb on the LibreOffice Windows install size; down to 269Mb (with sixty languages) from 342Mb, and still plenty more to save. Re-spun my Linux 3-3 build, a great reminder of how things were so much worse tooling wise only a month ago.
LibreOffice tech steering call minutes, looking good.
Reviewed and committed a nice patch removing the need for 150 duplicate 'missing icon' icons which should help our install size in the future, a little.

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.
