Hi,
maybe this is of interest to some of you: "Which programming language is best
for economic research: Julia, Matlab, Python or R?"

It's a pitty that people did not consider the gretl project. I am wondering
whether "we" may re-run the same experiments for gretl for getting an idea
how gretl would position.

I think we should prepare hansl version of the little code snippets that
are on the webpage you linked. This would give us at least the perception
of where we stand. Then, we may perhaps tell Agiuirre & Danielsson that
hansl code is available.
Federico Giri adapted the Matlab RBC benchmark code by JFV to hansl
(Federico delivered a presentation about this back at the Berlin
conference), we sent it to them and it's now listed at
