Fwd: GNU Octave 3.8.2 builds for Windows - possible to find

[Tilek Aberra]

My communication with Tatusoro as in the followup mail below.

I dearly need to get hold of Octave-3.8.2 binary installers, due to the limitation of some software that I wanted is built on this particular octave release - and were unable to run on the current 4.0x or earlier 3.6x versions.

Regards,

Tilek

Please send reply also octave-ML in order other persons see discussion.
In addition. please do the bottom posting[1] on this ML because it is 
a custom on this ML.

Octave-3.8 binaries were placed at  http://mxeoctave.osuv.de/.
But link (and files?) were deleted and just show
"GNU Octave offers now Windows binary itself. Go to ftp.gnu.org/gnu/octave/windows/".

I have keeping windows binary installer of octave-3.8.2 on my local PC.

According to GPL, I can distribute it on my web site.
But I have to confirm that I will able to do it without permission from original builder.

I have made a post to octave-maintainer ML for the permission[2].
