= TODO list =
== Geometry package ==
* Extend tutorial [[Geometry package]]

== Non-negative matrix factorization ==
* Add nmf_bpas and nmf-pg  to linear-algebra <span style="color: green;">✔</span> 

* Get [http://cogsys.imm.dtu.dk/toolbox/nmf/index.html nmf_toolbox] from DTU under free license. <span style="color: green;">✔</span>
** Add it to linear-algebra and create nnmf.m compatible with MATLAB calling all the methods.

== GPML ==
* Asked for a GPLv3 version of [http://www.gaussianprocess.org/gpml/code/matlab/doc/index.html GPML]. They answer but license is FreeBSD. A new version is comming out in June 2012, so I will wait to start the port.<span style="color: green;">✔</span> 
* Create [https://bitbucket.org/KaKiLa/gpml repository] to keep scripts to package it for OF. <span style="color: green;">✔</span>

== make output format a valid input format ==
An output format that prints valid input commands, so one can copy and re-execute the code.
From IRC

(04:57:05 PM) jwe: It might not be too hard to implement what you want.  There is a flag in the pr-output functions for pr_as_read_format and many (but probably not all) of the types that are printed there do something with that.  And it is not hooked in to the format function, so you can't enable it.

(04:57:31 PM) jwe: pr-output.cc and pr_as_read_syntax

== extend sub2ind and ind2sub ==
We are extending sub2ind and ind2sub to work with triangular matrices. Currently private functions of {{Forge|mechanics}}.
A string argument triggers the behavior. The string argument can be "triu" or "tril". After this str argument we accept an extra scalar value indicating that the triangular matrix is off diagonal (as in tril and triu).
So, the first modification to the C++ code will be
# Check if any of the argument is a str.
# Check what kind of triangular matrix (up or low). 
# If the argument after the str argument is a scalar, it indicates off diagonal triangular matrix (we do not have algo for that yet, though).

== real2rgb ==
Porting the package.
May be good to port [http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/16233-sc-powerful-image-rendering SC] as well


== Old projects ==
* Write description of packages [[Mechanics package]],[[Robotics package]].
* Start the API for [https://code.cor-lab.de/projects/rsb RSB].

=== Robotics Toolbox ===
[[Robotics_package]]

* Port [http://petercorke.com/Robotics_Toolbox.html Robotics Toolbox]. Started: [http://groups.google.com/group/robotics-tool-box/browse_thread/thread/3bc9c718a8d41f3f Google group]. Peter released an old version for Octave under GPLv3.
* Complete quaternion_oo wrapper.
* Ask [http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/todorov/software.html Emanuel Todorov] to release under GPLv3 or equivalent.
* [http://ai.stanford.edu/~mitul/mpk/ MPK] apparently is non-Free. Discussing.

+= Useful make options=
-== Get file info when generate_html fails or warns==
-Since generate_html gives errors about the random files generated, it is useless when debugging help text. The following command shows the first few lines of the files created by generate_html.
-<pre> f_old=/tmp/$(ls -1 -t /tmp | head -1);while true; do f=/tmp/$(ls -1 -t /tmp | head -1); if [ "$f" != "$f_old" ]; then echo $f; grep '@def' --include="*octave-help*" $f; f_old=$f; fi; done</pre>
-run this in a different terminal before using generate_html
-is not ideal,but it does the trick
-== Make options ==
-Some options to pass to make when compiling from source
