I don't understand what changes you are suggesting, so I also invite
you to just go and write whatever you want on the Octave webpage. I
only need to know your Savannah login. If that's too much, I can do
with just your public ssh key.

Actually, it costs "us" (i.e. jwe, the only one who afaik is actually
paying for some of it) a lot less to use GNU hosting. I'm not sure
what the bandwidth is, but I'm glad it's being paid for by the money
that GNU and the FSF have collected for Octave and other projects and
not being paid out of pocket by jwe. I think only the wiki is on his
own personal hosting.
