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.

Prodded mail; ordered HP laptop for H's birthday - a nice cheap
AMD based model (a CQ56-102SA) that we've hardware enabled for SLED, and
has on-line manuals for a SLED version but sadly is not-purchaseable with
it pre-installed in the UK; bother.
-
Updated to Evolution 3.0, and was surprised by the maildir
migration process (without UI feedback); dunged out the disk to find
space for duplicating 15Gb of mbox as 16.5Gb of maildir - a smaller
expansion than I feared; encouraging.
-
Forced an upgrade to Gnome 3.0 in parallel, left stranded
with some hideous theme otherwise; unfortunately theme settings
appear to be the latest casualty of the CADT model, un-findable in
my control-center at least. Seemingly the (fallback) panel nails
applets in place unless you press <Alt> while clicking,
apparently gnome-tweak-tool is necessary to customize your fonts
to your display (making them legible without eye-strain eg.) -
rather under-impressed by the accumulation of pain undoing
various inflexible and unhelpful decisions.

Dinner, worked later.
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.
