Because we have no control over them. If you want, you could make an octave package and host it in your homepage, there's nothing we can do about it. Packages are independent of Octave core. Please don't use the Talk pages of the wiki for placing questions since few follow this. Questions should be made on the mailing list http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/support.html | |||

== Question 11.6 about why qtoctave has been abandoned makes reference to a link which has been removed == | |||
Question 11.6 asks why QtOctave was abandoned instead of being worked on, and notes that the approach taken by QtOctave was bound to fail. | |||
It then states: | |||
''A [http://octave-gsoc2012.blogspot.ie/2012/06/why-not-take-existing-gui.html longer explanation] has already been written as part of GSoC2012.'' | |||
But that link to the longer explanation has been removed. | |||
Surely somebody must have cached the contents somewhere? Or does somebody have an exact phrase from the blog that one could use to search for the article somewhere? | |||
== Use of Simulink == | |||
In the section on Simulink it is stated that 'Typically the simulink models lag research and are less flexible, so shouldn't really be used in a research environment'. This implies an extremely narrow definition of 'research' and seems to me to be a quite inappropriate comment. There are many fields of research in which the use of something like Simulink is very sensible. I think it should be removed or revised, but as an outsider I don't want to do so without discussion. | |||
== Matlab / Octave Comparison == | |||
This is the year 2015. The comparison between matlab and Octave in this wiki is from 2010. '''5 years ago''' Can somebody with access to both programs provide an '''up to date''' comparison. Thanks. [[Special:Contributions/77.99.46.180|77.99.46.180]] 17:11, 9 February 2015 (PST) | |||
