CHARTER: comp.soft-sys.octave&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
General GNU Octave questions and its application to specific fields such  &lt;br /&gt;
as digital signal processing, digital communications, medical imaging,    &lt;br /&gt;
etc., as well as development issues such as bugs, fixes, workarounds,     &lt;br /&gt;
etc., in the main Octave kernel as well as developer- and user-supplied   &lt;br /&gt;
scripts (.m files) which extend Octave&amp;#039;s functionality.                   &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The general issues include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  * Addressing new user queries.&lt;br /&gt;
  * Exchange of source code in public domain, especially .m scripts.&lt;br /&gt;
  * Addressing the applications of GNU Octave in various fields.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Usage specific in fields like Signal Processing:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  * Exchange of public domain source code to strengthen the signal &lt;br /&gt;
    processing part of GNU Octave.&lt;br /&gt;
  * Addressing the beginner to advanced queries regarding various signal &lt;br /&gt;
    processing related function available with GNU Octave, as built-in or &lt;br /&gt;
    as separate packages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Commercial Postings&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Commercial advertising related to Octave from software vendors,           &lt;br /&gt;
publishers, etc. will be permitted in a very limited fashion.             &lt;br /&gt;
                                                                                &lt;br /&gt;
Unwelcome posts                                                                 &lt;br /&gt;
                                                                                &lt;br /&gt;
Flames and other non-constructive criticism are harmful when directed     &lt;br /&gt;
to new readers.  The octave group is meant to be a friendlier place on    &lt;br /&gt;
the net for beginners, intermediate, advanced users. Flames and other     &lt;br /&gt;
non-constructive criticism aimed at those seeking help are unwelcome.     &lt;br /&gt;
