Personally, I'd prefer it if the discussion could be kept on this list.
That way it's easier to follow what's going on in OctaveDE.

BTW I have a couple of comments/questions regarding your 0.2 release:

1) Currently, ./configure doesn't check for the existence of
   xapian and glu/glut. Since these are required for compilation, it
   would be nice of they were checked.

2) Compilation fails for with the following error

   OctaveUI.o: In function `OctaveUI::createOctaveVteDockItem()':
   /home/sh/Dokumenter/octave/octavede-0.2/ui/OctaveUI.cpp:696:
undefined reference to `openpty'

   Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Thanks,
Soren
