Follow-up Comment #3, bug #40543 (project octave): It is not meant to be a joke. The Mordor bit was, but to me changing the name seems obvious. Google probably works for you because the only context you use octave in is gnu octave. Octave is a mathematical concept of multiplying a frequency by two. Further GNU Octave is a math program so any searches for GNU Octave solutions are dilute. Aka needle in hay stack, and discouraging for beginners. Even changing the spelling to something more unique like Octuv would help users find and post GNU Octave specific solutions tenfold. I didnt know where to post "suggested enhancements". On other projects I have worked on it was within the bug tracking system. I will bring this up on the maintainers' mailing list if that is the appropriate place.
