This project started as a joint project between Debian, Octave and Scilab in order to
provide a common and maintained version of arpack.
This is now a community project maintained by a few volunteers.
Indeed, no single release has been published by Rice university for the last
few years and since many software (Octave, Scilab, R, Matlab...) forked it and
implemented their own modifications, arpack-ng aims to tackle this by providing
a common repository and maintained versions.
