Octave 4.0.0 now in Homebrew

I thought someone might want to update websites to indicate that Homebrew now has Octave 4.0.0 in homebrew/science. I found it via Google search at 
http://www.schoeps.org/home/tag/octave/
although I had to reinstall it with the GUI option enabled (it doesn’t build it with GUI support by default)
brew reinstall octave --with-qt --with-fltk --with-gui

As a side note, I noticed that Comic Sans is the default font for comments in the Octave GUI editor. Was this intentional as a joke? I realize that some of the Comic Sans hate in the world is semi-irrational (http://www.comicsanscriminal.com/), but because it does elicit such a visceral response in many people, maybe we should consider a different font as the default?
