Hi everybody (and a happy new year!),
and as explained before/below, the "buys_ballot" package is now retired
and archived, after many years of reliable duty and countless
applications. In the meantime since the last message, both gretl itself
and the season_plot package have been updated again. Thanks to all involved.
cheers
