I looked at this briefly. It could be of some use, but it appears not to have been updated since 2002. Quite a lot has happened since then. This seems to me a very good idea. I noticed from the Table of Contents of the Current Manual that there is no separate Section for Convex Optimization. This has become increasingly important. In any case, a key part of your providing more "organization" should be improvements to the documentation. (It is not a bad idea to write the documentation before the code.) If you want an excellent introduction to convex optimization (in case you have not already read it), try: http://www.stanford.edu/~boyd/cvxbook/ It also happens that Stephen Boyd is supportive of Octave, and, incidentally, he convinced Cambridge Press to permit his book (and lecture notes, etc.) to be freely downloadable from the site above. No problem!
