st: Propensity score matching in Stata

Hello
I would value advice on whether the material on performing propensity
score matching using Stata at the link
http://www.biostat.jhsph.edu/~estuart/propensityscoresoftware.html
is up-to-date. I currently have IC Stata Version 13.0 and realise that
some of the content at the above site may be dated.
Also, having read the content at http://arxiv.org/abs/1201.6385 , I have
some reservations about the
loopholes that need to be encountered with SPSS in order to try and get
closest to the real thing in performing propensity score matching.
Therefore, given the provision of more sophisticated modules, I am
inclined to think that Stata may be more fit for purpose. I would value
advice in this area too, however.
More generally, I would welcome advice on suitable resources for
self-directed learning from scratch in the use of Stata for propensity
score matching.
Many thanks in advance
Best wishes
Margaret
