A followup to my recent post:

I have not located any S+ functions to handle "errors in variables."

Regards,
Tom Burr

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Detail:

A few weeks ago, I inquired whether anyone knew of any
S+ functions to handle "errors in variables" (example: Y = Xb + e,
with nonnegligible error in X,  and interest is on estimate of
b, rendering ordinary least squares or minor variations thereof
suboptimal, and thereby leading us to Carroll, Fuller, and other's work).

There were about 10 replies direct to me asking for
info if I got any, so there is modest potential customer
base.
