Re: [Gretl-users] pre-release testing for gretl 1.8.0

Hello all (Sorry for the cross-posting to the two lists, but I wanted to make sure I got everyone). We're now close to the point of releasing gretl 1.8.0, having assembled quite a few new features and a lot of bug fixes. See http://gretl.sourceforge.net/ChangeLog.html . But the most exasperating thing in this business is when you make a new release and immediately get a report of a serious bug and so have to make a further release right away. In this regard, everyone can help. The Windows snapshot, at http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/pub/gretl/gretl_install.exe and the OS X (Intel) snapshot, at http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/pub/gretl/gretl.dmg are both up to date with gretl CVS as of January 12. If you can find 15 minutes to run your favourite gretl scripts, or try your favourute gretl GUI operations, then please do, and report any problems on one or other of the mailing lists. If any errors come up, we'll fix them tout de suite, then make gretl 1.8.0 available. Also, if any translators have things they want to update for the forthcoming release, please do that in the next day or two. Thanks! -- Allin Cottrell Department of Economics Wake Forest University _______________________________________________ Gretl-users mailing list Gretl-users(a)lists.wfu.edu http://lists.wfu.edu/mailman/listinfo/gretl-users
