Thats a good question. Is this help forum for people who are trying
to use Octave and who have not shared all of their code with you
(whether in C++ or octave), or is it just for people who are
developing additions to the Octave code base? You might want to
update the statement on the help page if youd like to keep potential
users like myself from emailing the list.

Im of the belief that helping someone out in the forums when they try
to use your software does help the community by creating another great
source of pseudo documentation.
In any case, I suppose its a moot point since I am no longer going to
be a user of Octave.
