Currently, I kind of maintain (not exclusively) some parts of Octave's
web presence (website, MediaWiki) and thought about what is possible.
See my idea to proceed the discussion here:
https://wiki.octave.org/Forum_for_GNU_Octave
Personally, I also would love to find more "state of the art"
communication tools for collaboration with Octave maintainers and users.
I do not mind maintaining another web presence as well, if we agree on
some forum software.
Best,
Kai
