Dear Dynare friends,
The Dynare Summer School 2013 will take place from June 24 to June 28,
2013 in Paris, France.
GOALS OF THE SUMMER SCHOOL
The school will provide an introduction to Dynare and to Dynamic
Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) modeling.
The courses will focus on simulation and estimation of DSGE models with
Dynare. It will be also the occasion to introduce the new features in
Dynare 4.4 (to be released before the Summer School).
Tao Zha (Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta) will be the guest speaker, and
will present the Markov-Switching tools in Dynare.
This Summer school is aimed at beginners as well as at more experienced
researchers. PhD students are encouraged to participate.

WORKSHOP ORGANIZATION
This is a “portable only” workshop. Each participant is required to come
with his/her portable computer with MATLAB version 7.0 or above
installed. We will provide WiFi access, but participants shouldn't rely
on it to access a MATLAB license server at their own institution. As an
alternative to MATLAB, it is possible to use GNU Octave (free software,
compatible with MATLAB syntax; see http://www.dynare.org/download/octave
for details on GNU Octave installation).
WORKSHOP DRESSING CODE
Business casual.
WORKSHOP ANIMATORS
- Stéphane Adjemian (CEPREMAP and Université du Maine)
- Michel Juillard (Banque de France)
- Ferhat Mihoubi (CEPREMAP and Université d’Évry)
- Marco Ratto (Joint Research Centre, European Commission)

Dear Dynare friends,
The source code of Dynare is now hosted on the GitHub platform, at the
following address:
https://github.com/DynareTeam/dynare
We made this decision to migrate to GitHub because we think that it will
facilitate contributions to the Dynare project. We welcome patches
(either bugfixes or new features) submitted through Pull Requests. You
can also report bugs or express your wishes for new features, by opening
an Issue (before doing so, please make sure that what you report is
really a bug or a missing feature: user support does not belong to
GitHub, but to the Dynare forums; please also make sure that your issue
is not already reported).
Of course, the main website where latest news, documentation and binary
downloads are hosted is unchanged and remains:
http://www.dynare.org
See you on GitHub,
