Before removing it, would you consider posting a message to the h...@octave.org list asking whether anyone (or group) would like to start maintaining it? Maybe the message should also go to the maintain...@octave.org and octave-...@lists.sourceforge.net lists. OTOH, maybe we should just let it die and try to get more effort put into the OpenGL-based graphics code for core Octave. jwe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
