[Gretl-devel] backward incompatibilities

Hi all, Lately, there's been some discussion on syntax changes that would lead to backward incompatibility. I am sure we all agree with Sven's position that, if compatibility has to be broken, it must be done once. Hence, in my opinion we need to put out each idea anyone may have on modifications to current commands and functions. In order to gather all the ideas in one place, I created a page on our hitherto deserted wiki for collecting proposals: http://gretlwiki.econ.univpm.it/wiki/index.php/Backward-incompatible_chan... Everyone's invited to read, comment, modify, add (you need to register first). The plan is, roughly, to put out 1.7.7 shortly to close a few bugs that have surfaced recently and then proceed to a backward-incompatible release (2.0?).
