Hi Allin and friends, I've just discovered Quantian, a
quantitative-oriented GNU/Linux live distribution based on Knoppix,
maintained by Dirk Eddelbuettel (who incidentally is the Debian
maintainer of gretl :-)
It's available at:
http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/quantian/
I think it's very useful (amongst other things) as a tool for gretl (and
other free software) advocacy, especially in our Windows-oriented
universities; I can't believe there are so many researchers who just
don't know anything about GNU/Linux or free software here in Italy... :-(
I'll just put it into their cdrom drive and show'em what free software
can do!
I wonder if there are other "live" (no need to install) distributions
that include gretl...
