So it seems that people don't have any preferences regarding the naming
of the channel :-)
To me "gretl_metrics" sounds totally fine -- even though the connection
to "ox_metrics" seems obvious. However, this may be a good aspect though!
That wasn't what I had in mind -- I rather thought that "metrics" is a
common slang abbreviation for econometrics among (American?) grad
students. Anyway, it's probably not important, I guess we just leave it
as is.
