Thanks to Alan Riley for the information, which gives us something
to look forward to. I am also looking forward to factors, and to
factor parsing, and to expanded specific factor varlists, and to the
other programming advances described in
http://www.stata.com/stata11/prog.html
which will be useful in writing the next generation of
resultsset-processing programs. Thanks in advance to StataCorp for
all this (and graphic markups too).
Best wishes

Anyone who has written an estimation command may wish to release a
Stata 11 version just so their programs can use factor variables. It
looks like the required changes to the code are pretty minor.
-ml- has been completely rewritten. I'll be curious to see if that
speeds up the programs I have written (oglm and gologit2).
Hopefully there will be a new version of the Stata ml programming
book -- or at least an addendum that highlights any new features.
