Some of these packages have licensing issues, preventing them from
inclusion into EPEL. Others have very complex structure and
buildsystem, so it takes time to add them into EPEL. However, some
work was done already. For ecxample, octave was packaged for EPEL. BRL
CAD is in process of packaging for Fedora (and, probably, EPEL)
