Hi,


I think there are a few things one could choose to pick up (or not) here:


1.) Create the html reports
Perhaps building with clang requires updates to the code or libreoffice build
system.

2.) Update / Improve the wiki page documentation
The wiki page that describes how to create the reports may not be as accurate
or precise as one would like.

3.) Create an automated way to produce the clang reports 
Create a (shell, python, etc.) script that can then be scheduled somewhere to
automaticallly create and update the reports, and upload them somewhere on a
regular basis.

4.) Investigate the reports
Investigate the issues in the html report, and submit patches for the actual
real issues found (instead of the false positives).


Hope this helps.
