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 quite late. Chewed mail, lots of nice work going on - Martin fixing up the Bonobo UI code nicely, while I'm still trying to get the demo to run properly for me.
- Mark McLoughlin starts work for Sun on Monday, sent a cheeky request to various people at Sun that he might be allowed to continue his work on ORBit2.
- Fixed yet another nasty ORBit2 assumption that align == size: often true, but for doubles: very broken [ except perhaps on an Alpha ]. We now have all 12 regression tests passing fully - great.
- Built all of Gnome 2.0 from the ground up again, with the latest Gtk+ / ORBit2 etc. Fixed ORBit2 CORBA_Object_is_a stuff and add a regression test. Fixed a daftness in bonobo-config. Now to work out why 'socket' is returning an fd of '0', worrying.
- Updated depends.dia to try and reflect the innumerable small modules & their dependencies in Gnome 2.0.
- Julia arrived back home from work - with a nice Compaq laptop for her time in Australia. Set off out to a rehearsal for Dianne & Steve's wedding tommorow. Julia travels every day on the train for an hour with Dianne & they lift share. Steve is an electro/mechanical engineer putting solenoids into automotive applications.
- Back home, and off to the pub for a good-bye party - J' flies to Australia on Monday. Met lots of nice people and talked to Rachel & Andy from next door a lot.

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.
