Octave 3.5.90 snapshot available for ftp

[Oops, I really thought I had sent this message, but there it was,
hiding out as a draft in an Emacs buffer.  No wonder there were no
replies... --jwe]


A new snapshot of Octave is now available from alpha.gnu.org in the
directory /gnu/octave:

  54442245b840483f40b9c0f9026b1256  octave-3.5.90.tar.gz

  -rw-r--r-- 1 3003 3002 18107269 Dec 12 04:17 octave-3.5.90.tar.gz

The snapshot is tagged in the usual way (ss-3-5-90) in the Mercurial
archive.

Please remember that these snapshots are provided for testing
purposes.  I do not consider them to be Octave releases.  If people
think there will be confusion because of the version number, then we
can add a notice to the Octave startup message.

I plan to release Octave 3.6.0 in the next few weeks.  Even if you
have been building Octave regularly from the Mercurial archive, it
would help if you could build from the snapshot and report any
problems.
