I've been thinking for some time, that one of the biggest failures of PSPP (and
SPSS) is that it makes an artificial distinction between computer users and
computer developers.  As a result of this, PSPP has very few developers.

Compare this to (say) R which has many developers;  I think this is because they
realised long ago, that ALL computer users are programmers and ALL computer
programmers are users.
