New and update math/science ports

[Takeshi Enomoto]

Hello Kevin and Dan,

Thank you for your replies.

I am glad to hear this.

I will write what I learnt from you in my blog in Japanese.

I did as you suggested. What about those ports written by  
nomaintainer at macports.org?

Then could you change as follows?

#11519 octave-forge enhancement
#11512 odcctools enhancement
#11516 cdo-1.0.6 enhancement

Please set priorities of octave-forge and odcctools to Nice to have.

> Dependencies are unversioned.

I like this simplicity.

I prefer port:foo to what Fink does.
In Fink I had to divide one into binary, libraries and headers.

Could someone tell me how portfiles are reviewed?
Will someone commit it if it is OK?
