I'm working in a toolbox for the resolution of partial 
differential equations (PDE) by means of the &#64257;nite element 
method in Octave.
I've called it octmesh, because it is made as an interface for 
the
access from Octave to LibMesh[2], a C++ parallel library for the
numerical simulation of PDE with support for adaptive mesh 
refinement. I'm
trying to imitate it's object oriented syntax (as octaviz does 
with VTK).

It's in alfa state, but I it's usable (though some access to C++ 
may be
needed at lower level, I mean, assembling of linear system 
matrices).
I hope to improve it in next weeks.

I'm also making a tutorial, I'll post more info in next days. 
Between my
plans for future, it's the idea of using octmesh for making a high 
level toolbox, similar to PDEToolBox. Thechnically, it's not 
difficutl...

Help is welcome :-)
