* Another Octave 9.x release? (Issue with load path update on Windows)
* Spam on Wiki: [https://octave.discourse.group/t/spam-on-the-wiki/6078 Discourse thread]
* Should we consolidate the number of automated pulls from savannah via HTTPS? See also [https://savannah.nongnu.org/support/index.php?111176 support ticket] for Savannah admins.
** buildbot.octave.org: every 5 minutes (for stable and default branches) and for each triggered build
** nightly.octave.org: every 10 minutes (for stable branch) and once per day if a build is triggered.
** synchronization to GitHub repository: every 5(?) minutes (for stable, default, and bytecode-interpreter branches)
* Apple Accelerate and single precision floating point numbers. See also the [https://octave.discourse.group/t/macos-accelerate-framework-single-precision-issue/6140/13 Discourse thread].
* load path update with files in "execution stack". See also [https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?66659 bug #66659: Octave crashes with SIGSEGV when debugging class methods]
* GSOC 2025:
** confirm interest and/or support intent?
** several early inquiries - Worth it to update/augment/create 'welcome' info?
** GSOC page list probably stale, other project list likely as well. We have a number of big ideas with full range of progress from 0 to ??. 
*** Can any _portions_ be turned into summer sized projects to kickstart activity? (Qt dev? GUI? Aspects of Classdef? HDF5, etc?)
*** We can always reject any unsound proposals, but history seems to suggest we'll only get solid applicants for proposed ideas.
** Based on 2024 issues, establish/publish a 'no selection if no pre-proposal communication' policy?
* How to publish package on Octave Forge? See [https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?66705 bug #66705: vrml package does not install]
