Hi, This looks good. I am just giving my coin in regard to the licencing. GPLv3 is a non-commercial licence (people can not use this code in programs user needs to pay for) LGPL is very similar but allows commercial use. Before deciding please check the rationale http://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-not-lgpl.html As far as I know any software with a Free software foundation compatible licence can be uploaded to Octave-forge. You have to be careful with BSD and include the 2 or 3 clause one, cause only those are Free licences. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSD_licenses Cheers, -- M. Sc.
