IIRC Dirk not not maintaining octave2.1 anymore

I don't remember what happened to r-base and friends, but he wanted to cut
back on packages, and I hope it is not due to m68k...

So lets ask the new octave maintainers if they want m68k kicked. IIRC Adam
and me joined, so that there is an m68k contact, but I have been too lazy to
sign up for the mailing list until now...
