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.

H. ill still, prodded mail; found the missing link in
my incremental win32 (server 20078rc2) build, and suspended/aborted
a few scp2 builds. Turns out that is a bad idea - ended up with a file
in the (local)
file-system un-owned by anyone; and totally resistant to deletion /
movement even by the administrator: "You do not have permission to
view this object's security policies, even as an administrative user" -
apparently re-booting is the canonical solution to this problem; ho
hum. The moral is clear: pray harder before building, and/or don't
kill processes when they are busy creating files (or something).
-
Salivated briefly over an Herringbone Geared
Extruder design, and back to mail and build testing.

Lunch; amused to get a translation of my paper on the problems
with Copyright Assignment from Paul Bukhovko into Belorussian,
fun.
-
Corporate conf call; Jared's staff, more wrestling with the
nastiness in make_installer.pl until late.
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.
