Dear Statalist, Maarten,
Thanks for your advice. Excuse me for not specifying where I got
-miest- from. I had forgotten that it's not downloadable from SSC.
Instead, I downloaded it from Gary King's Amelia website. Thanks also
for pointing me to -mim-. I was unaware of the command.
As for the tests and diagnostics: I guess I'll have to make do with
what is available, and hope reviewers won't bother too much.
Matthijs
