Jeph Herrin <[email protected]> :

Funny, I just asked someone from StataCorp yesterday at the AEA
meetings if they knew of anyone working on an implementation, as I had
one underway and was thinking about submitting it for the Stata Conf
in Boston at the end of July:
http://www.stata.com/meeting/boston14/
(and didn't want to duplicate anyone else's effort).

So as a short answer: I think not, but there soon will be, one way or another.
