There are some very easy fixes (unnecessary imports), but much more that is hard to address.

Providing missing generics is not as easy as might be thought, since prtopagating the mandaiory EcoreEnvironment instead of Environment gives an API change. Could just suppress the warnings in the compiler preferences.

More worrying are the many API violations; exported no API types etc. Similarly discouraged accesses and deprecated usages.

Overall, this is not a very attractive improvement, but it should be done, perhaps in conjunction with a major version chnage to allow API correction.

Bug 472482 demonstrates that some important/helpful warnings are being swamped by the legacy issues.
