Seeing that we have lazy consensus on the idea of simply removing the 
filter, I've started the cleanup work.

The first commit
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1677190
already fixes the vulnerability since it prevents the library from being 
built and included in the packages we distribute.

Reviewers wanted! I already welcome reviews on the first commit, but 
this is only the initial part.

I'll make other commits to complete the cleanup (for example, removing 
hwpfilter from include paths, drop support for the .hwp file extension, 
remove a special license paragraph related to HWP, remove it from the 
RAT scan exceptions list) unless someone else volunteers to take care of 
those.

Regards,
   Andrea.

I had taken a look at this too, and I think the examples I mentioned are 
very useful as a reference: the cleanup may involve many details, but it 
is not very complex. Unfortunately, I won't have time to spend on this 
in the coming days, so feel free to continue.

I suggest that we consider the issue 
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126281 closed as of May 1st 
(when I made the relevant commit) and that we open a new one for the 
"Hangul Word Processor filter cleanup" where we can put these small 
secondary fixes.

Regards,
   Andrea.

I didn't have any problems with my build after your changes. But, I did
notice that the Hangul file type  was still listed in the menu choices
for import. However, when I removed these yesterday --

/main/filter/source/config/fragments/filters/writer_MIZI_Hwp_97.xcu
/main/filter/source/config/fragments/types/writer_MIZI_Hwp_97.xcu

the build failed on the "filter" module. I will look into this further
and provide more information later. I think keeping these menu entries
would be confusing to users.

thanks a lot for helping out in this special area - and for sharing your 
really little spare time. :-)

Thanks a lot for helping out, I actually think your buildbot experience is
more important than your infra hat for this.

I’ll do what I can wrt to the Buildbot builds and setup so expect some mails from me on this.
Note that this is my ‘volunteer time’ so although my infra karma will help I’m not wearing that hat.

Honestly, as someone (I think it was Pedro) once put it, to remove stuff 
you just need an axe (sometimes a well-sharpened axe), and not a deep 
knowledge of the code!

I will test stuff on the Linux version only. Our buildbots are not in 
great shape
http://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/
so (without reopening a discussion on installing new ones, please) we 
should also look at fixing them to be able to find regressions quickly.

   Andrea.

that's great to see. :-) Didn't know that you had such deep knowledge of 
the code.
