the community has already created a website for this kind of recommendations
[1]. For example, it contains a project on the package system wich goes
beyond "it's broken, fix it". So, please add your proposals to [1] if you
like but if you do, then make sure that there is a mentor. By the way, I do
not see why it should be of interest for the Octave community to write a
translator from Octave to Julia?
