Octave 3.0.0 is now available for ftp from ftp.octave.org in the
directory /pub/octave:

It will also appear on ftp.gnu.org soon in the directory
/pub/gnu/octave.
This release is tagged with release-3-0-0 in the CVS archive. I've
also created a branch (release-3-0-0-branch) in the CVS archive.
We'll use this branch for any 3.0.x bug-fixing releases.
Version 3.0.0 is currently marked as the stable, testing, and
development version of Octave on the download page of the Octave web
site. The testing and development versions will change as soon as
there is a new snapshot.
Since Octave 3.0.0 is listed as stable, no 3.0.x release should
contain any changes to internals that will affect interfaces in a way
that would require changing the OCTAVE_API_VERSION defined in
src/version.h.
The following note also appears on the front, news, and download
pages of the Octave web site:
PLEASE NOTE: Octave 3.0.0 is significantly different from Octave
2.1.x, particularly with regard to graphics, path handling, and
built-in variables. Please read the NEWS file.
The changes from the object-branch will be merged to the CVS trunk
within the next few days.
I will also make an release announcement to the help-octave list soon.
Finally, thanks to everyone who made this release possible, especially
David Batemen for all the work he has been doing on Octave over the
last few years; Michael Goffioul, for all his work to port Octave to
Windows; Paul Kienzle and Przemek Klosowski for hosting the meeting
last year; Kai Habel, Søren Hauberg, and Shai Ayal for their work on
graphics features; Søren again for his work on the package system and
the manual; Michael Goffioul, Kai Habel, Rafael Laboissiere, Benjamin
Lindner, Tatsuro Matsuoka, Quentin Spencer, Thomas Treichl, Thomas
Weber, and everyone else who has been building binaries and packaging
Octave for various systems. (I'm sure I'm leaving someone out; any
omission is certainly not intentional).
Thanks!
