Dear Noam, Marianne,

Thanks very much for your replies. I've also found
http://guides.library.illinois.edu/c.php?g=348074&p=2346107 which pointed
me to Aquad (http://www.aquad.de/en/) which is free and open source, has
loads more functionalities than RQDA seems to have, and integrates with R.

Ideally I'd like to try things that complements the work we're already
doing in terms of SWC/DC training so we'll probably be doing a small pilot
with a few students with either RQDA or Aquad over the next few months to
see how it works for their needs.

Kind regards,

Anelda
