That's an interesting question. Participants in the gretl-users
list are generally tolerant (up to a point) of questions that are
not really gretl-specific. But general questions of econometric
methodology don't fall within the currently advertised purpose of
this list.
I wouldn't mind setting up a parallel list for methodological
questions (as you say, "connected to gretl") if people think (a)
that would be useful, and (b) it's better not to use gretl-users
for this purpose. (If there were another list to which we could
refer methodological queries we could just do so, but so far as I
know there isn't really such a thing.)
Thoughts? (And if positive, suggestions for a name for the list?)
