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; down to work, read mail; lots going on. Merged
psankar's nice bootchart2 patch to do cumulative I/O rendering,
should be rather useful for all those I/O limited bootcharts.
-
Did some more size analysis of LibreOffice on Windows;
still lots of duplicated licenses, poked at a weirdo dependency
problem as well - missing duplicated filenames in a makefile
(sadly). Clarity.
-
Prodded at the .ott template files; we have 33Mb of zipped
files for all the languages, and we blow this up yet further by
duplication while building the installer to ~71Mb. Amusingly if you
unzip those files, and cat them together, we get 25Mb gzipped, or
2.3Mb (two point three) lzma'd, hmm, quite a jump.
-
Calls with JP, then Kendy & Thorsten, back to compression
research.
-
Installed openSUSE 11.3 on my reprap controlling netbook,
so I could build the latest version of repsnapper - its nice to
have the required software pieces; printed out a few PrusaMendel
pieces, though the slide bushings defeated me.
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.
