Greetings Carlo,

In yesterdays developer meeting [1] the topic came up, that the odepkg
0.8.5 hosted at SourceForge is still part of the MXE Octave MS Windows
builds.  Unfortunately, it causes a failure when testing/using the
package [2].

Do you agree to remove the odepkg from MXE Octave, as large portions are
already part of Octave core?

Another question is the latest development repository.  It used to be on
BitBucket [3], but they shut down Mercurial repositories, thus it is
unavailable.  Is there a new location available or any plans for further
development?

Kai
