[Gretl-devel] series in bundles

I've had my head down in dbnomics stuff lately (informative posting to come before long), but I noticed in passing some comments/queries about series in bundles. I'm afraid I've lost the references but I'll post on the topic in general. The thing to remember is that bundles are just a transport mechanism for series. You can't "really" have a series in a bundle, since series belong to datasets and bundles know absolutely nothing about datasets; you can only have the ghost of a series. A "series" in a bundle has a status akin to a soul being rowed across the Styx by Charon, with the difference that it is possible to regain the living side under the right circumstances (the ghost-series is extracted into a conformable dataset).
