I see that you also include not-yet-released package versions (e.g.,
io-1.0.15). Not a problem, au contraire, several nasty bugs were fixed. But
there are still a few more patches needed (that I'm working on). In a too
optimistic mood I might have bumped the version number too soon :-)

So, while you are busy doing Good Work, could you -in a next version of your
7z- also include an svn version of the linear algebra package then, please?
A while ago I've updated the funm.m in there (it's still not very good, but
anyway for several matrix functions it now invokes thfm.m which in turn
invokes expm.m; it accepts function handle arguments; plus an inverse of V
is avoided). I've also adapted thfm.m so it doesn't call funm anymore in
turn.

Lastly, did you commit your fixes for the Java package to svn? - I don't see
it there. If you want I can do that for you if you simply sent the patches
to me.

All in all it is wise to very clearly indicate that some of the OF packages
you've bundled are actually updated compared to the officially released
versions.

Thanks

Philip
