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.

- Sat around in some seriously uncomfortable seats with enterprising Indians trying to sell various 'drinks of death' to me, talked to the nice Nun (or sister) a bit, waited for 9.45am.
- Applied to get on the earlier flight, 4.30am - got the plane - whopee. Again a very modern plane, but this time we had an on-board cockroach which was somewhat un-welcome. The pilot confindant in his own ability, and the impossibility of allowing a computer land his plane for him ( in fog ) diverted to some other crackpot airport where we waited until we had missed the connecting flight. Doh.
- Queued for hours with skill and fortuity, managed to get back onto the flight I would have got anyway - excellent. Bought some guinness at the Irish pub to celebrate. Got a free lunch out of it too.
- ORBit hacking - discovered some particularly stupid bugs in my code - trying to do too much too soon.
- 7 hour flight to Heathrow - and amazingly my luggage arrived as well - got on-line and started processing 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.
