 ## Q3: Have you done any other projects using EIEIO and/or defstruct?
-
-"Right, EBDB is super deep into EIEIO, and was kind of written as a project for learning it, and the new gnus-search library is a more restrained usage.  The search engines are defclasses, and much of the code is shared, which works quite well."

-## Q2: Is there may activity on maintenance of gnus today? (and is Lars involved/aware of this work?)
-
-"Yes, there's still development going on. I don't think Lars is very focused on Gnus right now, but I run all changes by him first.  He fixes bugs, but as far as I know, I'm the only one adding features right now, which is a terrifying thought."

 ## Q1: How much of this 90's funny code :) can be replaced and how much will have to stay forever?
-
-Eventually I think we can get most of it out of there. I was

-happy to be able to replace obarrays-as-hashtables with real

-hashtables, though that was a very painful process

+## Q9 Is it is possible to include Maxima in org files similar to jupyter notebooks? (Does ob-maxima have support for the :results graphics header argument of org-src blocks?)
+Yes it is, needs more work to be done on it.
 
 ## Q8 Are you planning to upstream your package into Maxima? (would be nice :)
-
+Don't know about that, can be bit messy. No problem with doing that
+though. Running tests might be tricky (CI).
 
 ## Q7 In which University do you start to use Maxima?

 ## Q6. Is there support for images in maxima-mode?
+Not as of now.

-## Q1: So I am an avid octave user right now (had a matlab lesson in uni and so I knew the basics and it was easy to get into), what would you say are the advantages of Maxima over Octave as from my understanding they are pretty similar. I would be interested in trying it out but I am not sure if its worth it compared to Octave. (Octave is a matlab "clone", not meant for analytic calculations, more matrix multiplications etc.)
