However, as the authors explain in the paper, four of the series
(CAN_YEN, NFN_YEN, YWD and YWDX) could not be updated, and only
contain NAs, so I wonder if it's worthwhile to supply those at all.
Maybe we could get in touch with these guys.
Thanks, Jack. I haven't read the details yet, so I wonder why the whole
time span has NAs there for these variables, not just the recent past.
Anyway, by "get in touch with these guys", do you also mean to ask if
they're OK with the distribution, or what (else) did you have in mind?
Well, since they uploaded the data to a public repo, I can't see what
could be wrong with us repackaging the dataset, provided we cite the
source appropriately.
I was thinking that they may explain to us what in their opinion the
best thing to do with those missing series is, and perhaps we could ask
them if they're willing to provide the data (with all subsequent
updates) in gretl format themselves on their web page, since the work
involved is rather minimal (setting up a gretl script for producing the
gdt file from csv or excel data is trivial).
