*: <pre>For some reason, I had a difficult time running Octave-CLI on my Ubuntu machine and it took me ~20 minutes to figure out how to start it. I believe I began [https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/v4.0.1/Invoking-Octave-from-the-Command-Line.html here], then realizing it started the GUI, I tried to look at the command line options; however, there was no option to start the CLI. It took me a while to realize that the CLI is a different program altogether and I have to type in ''octave-cli'' on my machine to start it.</pre> | |||

**: <pre>No, I enjoy discussing changes, but the extent to which I discuss them is dependent on the project at hand. Rather, I tend to discuss changes and work on the project incrementally. In other words, I think balancing discussion of changes and work on a particular project is more efficient because particular interpretations of changes may change throughout the project.</pre> | **: <pre>No, I enjoy discussing changes, but the extent to which I discuss them is dependent on the project at hand.

**: I chose to base my proposal idea off of [https://wiki.octave.org/Summer_of_Code_Project_Ideas#Improvements_to_N-dimensional_image_processing Improvements to N-Dimensional Image Processing]. I want to focus on implementing the missing color functions from the Image package, which I have specified [https://wiki.octave.org/Image_package#Color here]. In particular, I believe that implementing these functions will be beneficial for Octave because information about various color spaces and ICC profiles provide a way for processing real world images easier. Furthermore, it was noted in the suggested project proposal that there is a need to implement N-Dimensional image input for applications such as medical imaging; therefore, providing support for such applications will be considered in this proposal. | **: <pre>I chose to base my proposal idea off of [https://wiki.octave.org/Summer_of_Code_Project_Ideas#Improvements_to_N-dimensional_image_processing Improvements to N-Dimensional Image Processing].
