Today's topics

  • Octave 9.3.0:
    • Ready for release?
  • Start process for Octave 10:
    • Merge default to stable (when?)
    • Update gnulib
    • Pending changes?

Previous topics

  • GSoC:
    • The projects that Andreas mentored successfully finished.
    • No information on the project that Colin mentored during the meeting.
  • Plans for Octave 9.3.0:
    • Target for merging the default branch to the stable branch in 6-8 weeks.
    • Postpone decision about releasing 9.3.0 for a few more weeks.
  • Targets for Octave 10:
    • Given the remaining time until the branches are merged, implementing Table or String classes for Octave 10 might not be reasonable.
    • Implementing the arguments block might also be too large.
    • Maybe, go ahead and merge the changes for the command window widget from here: https://octave.discourse.group/t/new-command-window-widget/501/82 (or the modified version from the following comment)
  • Thoughts about liboctmex:
    • Go ahead and apply for Octave 10
    • Maybe consider versioned symbols instead of bumping the SOVERSION for ABI/API breaking changes in the future?
  • Visibility attributes:
    • Many (member) functions are marked (as opposed to the entire class) to allow for inline definitions of (member) functions in headers.
    • Might still be incomplete (probably less complete in liboctinterp than in liboctave)
  • Virtual OctConf. Is it happening?
