## NumFOCUS
=== Octave 7 RC 2 ===
 
* No major bugs remain, next will be final release.
* Bug {{bug|62207}} "segfault in bug-35881/bug-35881.tst in 32-bit ARM and MIPS" appeared.  But maybe not a blocker, as only 32-bit ARM and MIPS seems affected.  No Octave maintainer can reproduce due to missing hardware.

** The authors of the software did not get in contact with the Octave developers.
** The creator of this item did not attend the meeting, thus unclear what should be achieved.
=== GSoC 2022 ===
* [https://octave.discourse.group/t/gsoc-2022-symbolic-package-project/2396/3 Maintainers of symbolic package unresponsive].  If no communication gets established by the weekend, this project will be dropped to avoid applicants putting energy in this.
=== Package problems ===
* Package problems have to be settled with the package maintainers.  Forks are possible anytime: GPL.

*<strike>bug {{bug|46521}} is still lingering with nir_krakauer and lostbard there has been significant progress.</strike>

==== Signal ====
*<strike>There has been tremendous work submitted by Charles Praplan, JWE, and others.</strike>
**<strike>However it appears none of this has been incorporated.</strike>
**<strike>After release of version 1.4.1; is this no longer being maintained?</strike>  Not related to Octave itself.  Please reach out for the [https://octave.sourceforge.io/signal/ package maintainer] about future plans.  If one is interested she might offer to become new package maintainer.
