Lukas,

I totally agree with all other replies to your email,
I am sure this delay is just due to lack of time from Carnë
and the correct way to avoid similar problems in the future 
is to add more release technicians to Octave Forge.

If you would like to be one of the volunteers working on package 
release I would fully support your offer.
