Dear Emil,

Your paper seems to provide examples for embedding Octave 4.2.x in C++ applications,
but the API has changed since then and the examples in the manual that I linked to are
more up-to-date.

On the other hand, form the abstract, it seems that broader topic of your paper is about 
building complex applications by patching together pieces of custom c++ code, Octave libraries
and commercial CAD applications.

An important topic when discussing this subject would be to clarify the legal aspects,
as anything that links to Octave libraries qualifies as "derived work" of Octave and should 
therefore be released under the GNU GPL v3 license.

I think it would make sense to clarify how you expect software built with the approach you 
propose to comply with the above requirement of the Octave license ...
