Hi all, we have been working on a new setup for producing "snapshots" for the Windows operating system (a "snapshot" being essentially a version of gretl that contains the features we're working on for the next version). This should enable us to produce windows snapshots more easily and to provide them to the community in a more timely manner. Although we're confident that the new setup should work fine, you never know: especially with the Windows OS, there could always be some subtle details we might have missed. Therefore, we'd like those of you who use Windows to help us check if the snapshots produced using the new setup are in fact 100% ok. To download them, go to https://sourceforge.net/projects/gretl/files/testing/ You'll find 32- and 64-bit versions. It would be very useful to us if you could hammer these versions of gretl by trying things out, and let us know what happened, even if everything worked normally, which is what we expect. Thank you! ------------------------------------------------------- Riccardo (Jack) Lucchetti Dipartimento di Scienze Economiche e Sociali (DiSES) Università Politecnica delle Marche (formerly known as Università di Ancona) r.lucchetti(a)univpm.it http://www2.econ.univpm.it/servizi/hpp/lucchetti -------------------------------------------------------
