octave (3.8.0~rc1-1) experimental; urgency=medium
* Starting with this version, the octave package now contains an
experimental graphical user interface (GUI) based on the Qt toolkit.
That GUI can be started by running the `octave-gui’ executable, or by
giving the `–force-gui’ option to the octave binary.
* For those who want to keep the lower memory footprint of a pure text
interface, there is the `octave-cli’ executable which is not linked
against Qt.
* Starting with this version, Octave incorporates a just-in-time (JIT)
compiler, which can offer performance improvements in some situations.
Since it is still experimental, the JIT is disabled by default, but
you can activate it with the `jit_enable’ command.

These packages are maintained by a community of Octave Forge and Octave developers in a spirit of collaboration. The main repository for development is located at SourceForge. Community packages are coordinated between each other and with Octave regarding compatibility, naming of functions, and location of individual functions or groups of functions.
