Geek, husband, lover, software developer, Londoner. Not necessarily in that order.

Proud #GTK and #GNOME dev; member of the GNOME Foundation.

You may remember me for my work at OpenedHand, Intel, Endless, and the GNOME Foundation. Otherwise, you heard about me being a scary person on the Internet.

"One of the people responsible for the failure of the Linux desktop" according to a random YouTube user.

Opinions are always my own, but if you don't like them that's too bad.

What's the setting named? Did you add any layers of indirection?
