Dear Allin,
I'm also glad because I finally start to monitor function packages :-)
Just one more point: what do you think about a new command to install packages using
command line?
I hope tomorrow I start to bug another Gretl-coder: Mr. Jack!
Thanks, Henrique, this is very helpful.
As for my packages, you may want to know that SVAR is being heavily worked
on, and I plan to release 1.0 asap. However, since SVAR is an official
add-on, you may also want to skip it at this point if you don't have time
for it (it's considerably bigger and more complex than most other
packages). The same holds for gig, although I haven't worked on it for a
while (but I should!!!).
BTW, while we're on the subject: I have a set of hansl functions for
estimating BEKK models (one of the most popular variants of multivariate
GARCH models) which I've been wanting to make publicly available for a
while. Would you guys rather see this as an enhancement to gig, or as a
separate package?
