[Sea-mat] Question - Who is the owner of the SEA-MAT site?

[Matthias Lankhorst]

Hi,

I didn't exactly remember that I was on this e-mail list, nor do I know
what SVN or PR means. I share Rich's sentiment that most of the stuff on
the page is probably not being maintained but still useful, one way or
the other. I probably haven't downloaded anything recently, but given
that I have (and use!) many of the packages on my local computer, I
assume I must have in the past.

I know github, and am pretty sure this would work.

I also know Mathworks FileExchange, which I am sure will work. If
Mathworks is willing to host these packages there (and Lisa is willing
to be the person pulling them all in), that will be a wonderful
solution. Lisa, is that what is behind your question?

I also noticed that Lisa's original e-mail is dated more than a month
ago. It only arrived in my Inbox today. Not sure what went wrong there
(moderated e-mail list with hibernating moderator?).

Regards, Matthias
