 All OctaveForge packages (this name will change as soon we have [http://agora.octave.org/ Agora] online
 running) are hosted in [https://sourceforge.net/p/octave/code/11146/tree/trunk/ this site]. Here we discuss how you can contribute to the development of those packages. Lets say you have found a bug in a function of one package and you know how to fix it.

 About the difference between old and new releases, Octave Forge used to be one single large project. Now each package is released indidually and have their own independent development. As such, there used to be Makefile everywhere as variables would propagate. When the split was made, unmaintained packages, such as video, kept the old Makefiles (because no one removed them). The Makefile at the root of package for example does nothing.
