A digital misfit

Current state of unmaintained octave packages

For the moment I’m just looking at the list of packages to try to understand what would be needed to get them up to a releasable standard.

After some replies to my volunteering to be a maintainer email, it seems like the project would first prefer to see some other patches from me for currently maintained packages or core code. So, while this is interesting, it might not be immediately useful.
Edit: Julien Bect points out that stk is erroneously in this list, he is one of the maintainers thereof.
