I'm increasingly optimistic that we can develop a really
high-quality, user-friendly statistical analysis tool with high
performance, the capacity to efficiently handle large data sets,
high-quality human- and machine-readable output, and that is easy
to hack on too. It's getting better all the time. Let's keep
plugging away and see how good we can make it!
