Charging money is not a violation of the GPL. As one of the Octave
developers, I encourage any distributor of Octave to charge as much
money as they wish for it as long as they obey the terms of the GPL
(amongst others, distribute source to anyone they sell Octave to).
As far as I know, Corbin Champion is distributing this source:
