Working at ActiveState was a lot of fun. It was
interesting working on Komodo, and learning about the
Mozilla code base.
I got to feed the useful mozilla fixes back upstream that
was good. I got bug
107651 – Handle multiple file drops on mozilla (gtk build)
using the text/uri-list target into the 0.9.6 release
(which is not as useful as it could be, due to many mozilla
dnd observers not being set up for multiple item drops).
I have a few other useful patches pending:
- bug
109798 – support multi item text/x-moz-url drags as
text/uri-list on mozilla/gtk - bug
69528 – support attaching multiple files at once via dnd - bug
37685 – get postscript printing to use more than just Times
Hopefully some of these will get into 0.9.7.
The weather was great on the weekend. Went out
kneeboarding with some friends. We put together a two metre
tower high on the back of the boat built from two spars
lashed together. It looked a bit dodgy, but it worked
pretty well. It made getting up on the board a lot easier
(it was my first time kneeboarding in over a year, and I was
expecting to fall off almost immediately).
