Re: PSPP-BUG: suggestions for model source code

[John Darrington]

Hi Nikolaj,

For various reasons, using third party statistical algorithms in PSPP is 
rarely possible, without compromising the goals of the project.  I think there
is a FAQ entry which talks about this.

Thanks for your feedback.

     Hi,
     
     I work as a researcher statistician, use R and SPSS frequently (and am more
     and more dissatisfied with the lack of speed since spss decided to program
     their interface in java). When I read your need for source code for 
standard
     statistical methods like poisson and logistic regression, the
     following sprang to my mind.
     Transition data analysis is a quite general purpose gnu statistical 
analysis
     program, with many types of analysis and its c-source is available under 
the
     gpl (see: http://www.stat.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/tda.html).
     Have you ever considered using their source code for PSPP? This would in my
     opinion speed up the development of pspp enormously. Or am I missing
     something?
     
     Greetings and succes with your project (very nice interface already),
     
     Nikolaj
