Thomas,

Your involvement in this porting effort was crucial, anyway.  Thanks for
that.

I also will have to get focused from now on other things rather than
Octave/Debian.  I think that the packages are in good shape, at least we
have a health amount of Octave-Forge packages ported and working.  I
think we are ready for wheezy.

Sébastian: could you please request the removal of semidef-oct and
octave-parallel? I guess that the sdpam package provides the
functionality of semidef-oct.  I also guess that octave-openmpi-ext will
be a valid replacement for octave-parallel. 

The porting of the packages not maintained by the DOG should not be
problematic because I have added patches to most of the bug reports.

Rafael
