Off-loading warning fixes is a double edge sword again... some of the
fixes might not be as trivial as they at first look so a quick fix can
introduce bugs, the more you know about the code the less likely such
a mistake will be made - which is why I undertook the warnings purge
before Christmas, I'm familiar with the widest set of OSG code.
Fixing bugs later on typically takes far more time than avoiding it in
the first place, so taking on the task seemed like a more efficient
thing to do.

If you post the warnings I can have a quick look at them and make a
judgement call on the potential risk of associated code changes, if
it's low for a certain class of warning then having others dive in is
a help.  Sometimes I have to change warning fixes for coding style as
well so we'll need to illustrate a warning, suggest a fix, then make
sure this is good enough to merge and then roll this fix style out to
all similar fixes, otherwise I'll end up having to reject fixes or
manually fixing them myself anyway.

Robert.
