It would really help too if posters could explain/describe -- in as
non-disciplinary-specific way as possible -- what /models/ the modules
in Some Alternative Software or Some Pretty Shocking Software aim to
estimate. Several of us may not use, or not have ready access to, those
packages. We may not know what we are missing. The term "(NL)MIXED" is
not exactly informative.
