This is a great point that Roland brings up. More often than not, the papers I read do not indicate which package they used in their analyses. It is also disturbing to see that in some cases they may indicate that they used Stata, but do not indicate that they used a user-written command within Stata! On another note, Bob referenced an automated forecasting program in R that he used for his forecasts (http://robjhyndman.com/software/forecast/) Do we have a similar user-written program in Stata? I have not found one?

Do I understand correctly that the calculations are done on publications that report which software that were used? Maybe this practice is changing?
