RE: PSPP promotion at professional associations

[Muenchen, Robert A (Bob)]

I just signed up for this list a day or two ago. I had been under the 
impression that PSPP stopped improving years ago. It's good to see it's still 
active. One way to get the word out would be to post notices of new features 
regularly on SPSSX-L. If PSPP reads SAS or R files, posting occasional messages 
on those lists would also help advertise it.

Cheers,
Bob
