CART -- usually I think regarded as an abbreviation of
Classication and Regression Trees, after the monograph
by Breiman, Friedman, Olshen and Stone -- has been requested
several times as an addition to official Stata, including
at the NASUG meeting in Boston on March 17. The Stata
Corp response is in essence "We'll think about it".
