dear members,

thanks very much, to all of you for your informative postings!
now i'm much more clear, what direction i can go. so debian or fedora seem to be the favorites.
i hope this thread can help other potential users, too.

on this background , i (not an insider) may suggest following to discuss:

something i miss a bit, is a kind of central information area, which gives an
overview on octave-news regarding available packages / releases / bugfixes.
in this context e.g. the link in rafael's post could be placed more public...
or the hint that debian stable has currently only the 2.0.16 version  etc.
Another example: some weeks ago there was the latest cygwin-release announced here in the mailing list. i think such important informations shouldn't be burried in the normal mailing-list traffic, but get a place more in the spotlight (that means concentrated, easy and fast to find...) - maybe in the wiki or directly at octave.org... my intention is to make it more transparent to the user, how he can get a full-featured, pretty actual octave inclusive -forge...might be that i'm too blind, if so then sorry ...

kind regards
andreas n.
