develop hwpf classes

Hi,

if anybody knows (Rainer?) an instruction (more detailed
than the information available on the poi sites), to
develop some new classes to hwpf?
I'm new to poi, and since ryan left, I have no
idea, who can help.
I would like to add some support for 
fields(variables,bookmarks)to hwpf.
Right now it appears little difficult to me, only 
having this wosit-document and the
existing hwpf-classes (to study already
implemented methods).
Also it would be necessary to alter some 
of the existing classes and there should be 
someone to supervise this, right?

best regards wolfgang

Sorry, no, not me. I am just HPSF-aware and have NO idea of HWPF or
HSSF. But I am sure there are others reading this list who can help.

Wolfgang, this is your chance to become a committer! Make your changes,
make sure that the test cases run, develop new test cases, correct old
ones (if needed), and submit your patches. If they turn out to be
valuable stuff, you'd be very welcome on board.


Best regards
