Subject: Moving octave-mode manual from GNU Octave to GNU Emacs.
Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2013 17:36:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3807544.WvD2aUL9KJ@descartes> (raw)

Hello,

octave-mode seemed to have been maintained both in GNU Octave and in 
GNU Emacs for a while.  The Emacs code has been removed from GNU Octave 
(10856:dea165ff6d74) and it is now only maintained in GNU Emacs.  But the 
octave-mode manual is still part of GNU Octave 
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/file/1d58abc740c0/doc/interpreter/emacs.txi

It is not included in GNU Emacs and it is partially outdated.  The GNU Octave 
maintainers want to get rid of it and since octave-mode is maintained within 
GNU Emacs it makes sense to move it to GNU Emacs.

It currently says "Copyright (C) 1996-2013 Kurt Hornik".  I have contacted him 
and he agreed to change the copyright to the FSF.  What is the correct 
procedure for this?

(Since he is the original author of octave-mode, I assume he has already 
signed the fsf papers.)

Regards,
Rüdiger
