gnuplot

[Daniel Heiserer]

Hi,
why does octave not come WITH the latest version of gnuplot?
We wouldn't need so many parameters than.

Is it gnuplot's license?
It is still not GPL, but it changed quite a bit in the last time.
The main thing I could figure out is, that you are allowed
to change the code, but you are only allowed to redistribute
it with patches, not modified.

Maybe we could start a request-ATTACK to gnuplot's copyright holders
to switch to GPL?

Probably would be of a great benefit for both.
