A great plus of RATS is not its programming language (at least from
my
point of view), but its list of code contributions as well as its large
pool of procedures and replication examples. Some time ago it was discussed
here on the gretl list whether to publish replication procedures. I think
this could be an important feature to promote gretl. One could set up a
homepage where all function packages as well as replication codes are
publicly listed. Thus, if people 'google' for example the
'Breitung-Candelon test' they would say "Oh cool, that's already
implemented into a free software called gretl!"
This is a nice idea: we could use the wiki for that, in a "replication"
section. I've got a few things I could add. Anyone else?
I really doubt that making the GUI more shiny has any impact on the
number
of users and contributors.
Don't underestimate the power of bells and whistles...
