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.

Mail chew. Really thrilled to see Kohei' work to significantly
improve MDDS
performance (the Multi Dimensional
Data Structures we use at the core of Calc for many things).

Happened to be reading through Carson on Tolerance
this morning, and got to this bit: "Democracy remains the best way of making
government more or less accountable. Nevertheless ... Democracies can believe
falsehoods and do cruel and wicked things.". He argues cogently that having
a higher authority, a self-standing ethical yard-stick, capable of questioning and
challenging the state is fundamental to human freedom, though highly unwelcome
to totalitarians of course. Interestingly one of the goals of TDF's board election
processes is assuring that a diversity of views is represented, and that it is
hard to exclude voices people may not want to hear.

Marketing call. Calls with Kendy, Cor, MikeK, Thorsten.
Admin, bug triage & testing. Customer call, worked late on text.
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.
