It’s been a pretty busy week, with Maeve and Patrick arriving. From a work productivity point of view, it hasn’t been wonderful, but it’s been fun to catch up with them. The two of them started to look for work, and within a day Patrick had decided that he was going to try his hand at being a labourer, given that there was no other jobs available in New Zealand. It will be interesting to see how he gets on, and it’s providing much source of amusement in the household.
Met quite a few people at the climbing wall recently, including a guy who had recently lost interest after having climbed for 10 years. He told me a bunch of places to visit, and recounted some tales of climbing in Australia for a week with Ben Moon. Hopefully we’ll visit a car auction at the weekend and pick up a cheap Japanese import so that we can see some of these places.
Had a pretty awesome conference call with the Norwegian GUADEC committee – the conference is really starting to rock, even during it’s early stages. Things are coming together really early, and the proper amount of forward planning is getting done. Is it just me or is the whole GNOME infrastructure getting heaps better? A long time ago when I first joined the GNOME project, I seem to remember things being a little bit random and chaotic. Now things seem to be running like clockwork. In a way it’s rather disconcerting.
