[OctDev] octave contribution

[Clemens N. <e00...@st...>]

Hi,

my name is Clemens and I'd like to help a bit with octave...  I'm new to 
this list so please forgive my (possibly) stupid questions.
How close does octave-forge try to imitate matlab ? i am quite familiar 
with matlab & recognized quite a lot of functions, but some (and rather 
simple ones like upsample, downsample,...) seem to be missing ?

I've written a short function which imitates upsample from matlab but 
only for vectors  (I'm not sure but think in matlab upsample works with 
matrices as well) Would you accept it as it is or is it more a '100% 
like matlab or nothing' approach ?

How does the contribution of scripts / functions work ? do i have to 
commit the stuff via cvs or is it ok to send them to this list ?

Thanks for your help - regards,

Clemens
