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.

- Fixed a permission problem on the red-carpet channel for SuSE 9.3 and NLD-9 at http://red-carpet.go-oo.org/ - the best place to get the latest greatest OO.o packages, currently m121.
- Filed expenses via Citrix - remote printing to a remote printer even worked with a little tweaking. Leon pointed me at an interesting page about the Win32 linker; so much faster, smaller & more scaleable. Registered for Brainshare Europe.
- Knocked up some nasty shape fill tests to hammer on the impress cairo support, gradient transparency on hatched backgrounds etc. Fixed an annoying postfix problem.
- Generated a list of identifiers for vtable fixup & got it working idly nicely via my constructor hooks & a small C shim library; neat. Lots more work required to a sane solution though.
- Ron & Iris around for dinner - lovely to see them again, hear about France, and encourage each other, talk / sing. Bed 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.
