[Gretl-users] REMOVAL of the ridge package

Dear User-list Members, I am writing to inform you that the “ridge” package is going to be removed from our package server today. This package was written by Sven and me but got superseded by the “regls” addon written by Allin. This includes the ridge estimator including cross-validation for hyper-parameter optimization and will soon include a matrix-based version as well. The archived "ridge" package and its source code can still be found on Github at https://github.com/atecon/ridge; simply navigate to the src folder for access to its gfn file. We hope this information helps! Thank you for being part of our user list community and please don't hesitate reach out if you have any other questions or concerns regarding this update or anything else related! Best, Artur
