: Understood. Perhaps we can at least use JDKFILTER incrementally. Do we have a way to override the warnings used by the makefile? I haven't tried it but Erik suggested in a reply to Dan a few months ago, that is should be possible:

Any thoughts towards perhaps disabling -Werror but enabling all of the warnings? I think it would just annoy people and make it impossible to see the errors. We'll need to continue to make progress on the warnings and I think can only enable them when they are down to a manageable number, ideally 0. Stuart lead the last few campaigns and may have ideas or plans.
