Yes.  Well-thought-out wish lists are useful up to a point, and I 
thank people for sending them in.  But we really need some more 
gretlers who are in a position to make the gretl wish list 
_shrink_!  (That is, by implementing some of the items on the 
list.)  

Jack and I are currently working on more advanced cointegration 
methods (and we added the Heckit estimator a few days ago).  We 
also have on our agenda such things as more general GARCH methods, 
structural VARs, simulation of simultaneous equation systems, and 
making the Kalman filter (currently used in the background for 
ARMA estimation) accessible at the user level.  Plus duration 
models, Blundell-Bond panel estimation, ...

If you know of any graduate students with programming expertise 
who might be interested in contributing to gretl, please try to 
encourage them to do so!

Allin.
