Hi everybody,
this is to pre-announce that the veteran contributed function package
"buys_ballot" by Ignacio Díaz-Emparanza (and Jack Lucchetti, last
updated in 2018) for seasonal plotting will be retired soon from the
public package server. The reason is that its functionality and a little
more is offered by the newer package "season_plot" by Artur Tarassow.
This course of action has been discussed and coordinated with the
package authors.
One restriction to note is that "season_plot" for technical reasons
requires at least gretl 2024b, which is relatively recent. So we are
going to wait for the next gretl release 2024d (which is expected soon)
before retiring the other package. As always, you can continue to use
the package and also store a local copy of "buys_ballot" for further
use. It's probably also going to be archived (@Artur?).
If you notice any problems in your usage with the newer package
"season_plot", now would be a great time to report it. (on- or off-list)
thanks
sven
