Re: HWPF contributions...

Hi All,

> Does anyone have an answer to this question almost one year later?

Well we did some work and our patches have, I believe, been rolled in.

As far as I know HWPF hasn't made it out of scrachpad, and I think
a code review is required plus all the other things (documentation
testcases) mentioned elsewhere. I had hoped to do some more work
on this myself, but unfortunatley the preasurres of making a living
have left me with no free time until at least march 2005, for which
I can only appologise. It may be possible for me to do some more work
then. In the meantime it would be great if someone has the time and
energy to take HWPF forward.

Best regards,
                 Piers

I also would like to know how it works to make contributions to the HWPF.
Does anyone have an answer to this question almost one year later?

I hope you have checked this.

If you send me some details (email) what exactly to do, I will look on 
it. Do you have any paper plan of this, how it shall work (maybe fully 
compatible to the JACOBGEN http://www.bigatti.it/projects/jacobgen/ WORD 
classes for the JACOB COM bridge http://danadler.com/jacob/).
