Open science depends on open tools! Octave is such a good resource for otherwise walled off code (that doesn't use newer matlab features). But I'm curious where octave is popular. Does anyone pick it over julia or python when starting a new project/research?
I also wish the state of science/engineering software shook out differently. There's plenty of money to pay Mathworks. Is there some kind of license like pay us if you're doing commercial work or publishing research on grants worth over $XXX, otherwise consider it open source?
