pspp for DEBIAN
----------------------
PSPP is a work in progress. Some documented features are not
implemented (for example, the --pipe switch). Some implemented
features may not be documented. There are some bugs. Some are
discussed in the info page in the "crosstabs" node (which is under the
"statistics" node).
If you are not familiar with SPSS, you should probably look first at
the files in /usr/doc/pspp/examples, starting with example.stat.
You are invited to contribute documentation and/or code to help
complete PSPP. The upstream maintainer is Ben Pfaff
<pfaffben@pilot.msu.edu>. He writes:
Also, with the release of 0.2.0 I will be taking a vacation from PSPP
to work on my newest project, known as NOODLE, which is an interpreter
for a desktop publishing language of my own invention. I hope that
NOODLE will eventually be competitive with PageMaker or QuarkXpress.
I am still looking for PSPP developers, people who care about
statistics and know programming. If there is someone out there who
wants to take over PSPP development and maintenance, please contact
me. I am tired of this project. 4 years is too long. PSPP
development will slow down if I'm still the only one working on it.
