I guess that's me. I'm a bit overworked at the moment, so I'm neglecting
my Octave-Forge duties, which is a bit embarrassing I guess. From a
practical point of view it's trivial to rename the package files during
building. It might, however, be problematic to upload files with a
non-standard extension to Octave-Forge (I don't know as I haven't
tried).
