** A couple of bugs have been solved on the stable branch since the release. Last time we released 6.2.0 pretty early after 6.1.0. Should we do the same again?
** Regressions that should probably be solved before a potential 7.2.0:
*** bug {{bug|62308}}: use of octave::feval causes error: function '...' not found
*** patch {{patch|10200}}: wrong axes using stairs in subplot  ---  This affects a lot more plotting functions besides stairs. They always plot into <code>gca</code> and ignore the input axes handle.
*** others?
