(e.g. "General Estimating Equations," "Survey-weighted regressions," etc.)
2. Bug fixes for particular statistical models

- Zelig 4 Structural Changes -
While most features of Zelig have remained unchanged, the original software
package has been divided into five distinct packages: Zelig, ZeligChoice,
ZeligGAM, ZeligMultilevel and ZeligNetwork. These packages correspond directly
to particular classes of statistical models: discrete choice models, general
additive models, multilevel models, and network regression models. All other
models from Zelig 3.5 remain in the main Zelig package.
For a complete list of statistical models in Zelig, refer to:
http://projects.iq.harvard.edu/zelig/models

- Zelig 4 for Developers -
Zelig 4 continues its tradition of being "Everyone's Statistical Software,"
while now catering to developers with an API geared towards simplifying the
development of statistical models. This means adding your statistical model to
the Zelig software suite is easier than ever.
- Install Zelig! -
Instructions on installing Zelig 4 can be found on the IQSS Zelig Project's

Hi,
I'm trying to use install an older version of Zelig (3.5.5) so that I can
run an ordered logit with the multiply imputated datasets. However, when I
try to use
install.packages("Zelig_3.5.5.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type = "source")
I receive the following error message. I tried both RStudio and RConsole to
see if the software was the issue but it gives the same error message in
both
thanks,
Joan
