I will send them a patch.

According to their website, they have released 5 times in about 10
years (twice in 1998, twice in 2005, once in 2006). If I had to choose
between owning packages for n Linux distributions (and what about
Windows etc?), or updating octave-forge when ANN releases, I would
choose the latter.
