Re: [Gretl-devel] Draft: CfP for 2017, please check (Ioannis, Jack, Ignacio, Oleh especially, and Allin of course)

based on Ignacio's existing document for the last conference I

together a first draft of the call for papers, attached. (I hope it goes
through the list as it's <200KB here.)
Please check the contents of the call in general, for example if the
described idea of the "coding sprint" is appropriate and practical, and the
dates given in general. This general check would be especially important for
the central players Ioannis and Allin.
Also there are some "fixme" places in the document with some of your names;
so Jack, Oleh, and Ignacio, please respond whether the respective part of the
document should be changed or if it is OK.
It would be nice if you could answer before the holidays.
This all looks good to me, Sven. I like Jack's idea of putting
together a proceedings volume if that's feasible.
A couple of tiny things: in the listing of new functionality,
"BFGSmaxc" should be "BFGScmax"; and (not in your text, but) I notice
that at www.gretlconference.org the "gretl" link is actually a
"wayback" reference to the gretl site as of 2013 -- it should just
point to gretl.sourceforge.net, I suppose.
I've updated index_pat.html in git to refer to the 2017 conference,
but I'll defer uploading the new page until the conference site has
the 2017 material.
