typo

a suggestion from

"Ps. I might have found a typo in the MatchingFrontier Vignette (here). You may want to change "frontierEst()" to "estimateEffects()" on page 7."

The documentation on that website hasn't kept up, especially since Noah took over the repo. I can't remember if we linked to that website anywhere, but I could either delete it entirely or leave a pointer to Noah's git repo?

[ngreifer]

Yeah, that whole document is outdated if the user is using the version on the IQSS GitHub (v4.0.0 or greater). That version has plenty of documentation, but the only documentation that is relevant for it is on that website (so some other materials around the web will be outdated). @thegaryking, someone recently mentioned that the link to install the package on your website refers to an old version, so maybe you should update it. I have been working on the package here and there; do you think it would be okay to put it on CRAN at this point?

[thegaryking]

let's update all the websites. otherwise people will just get tired and switch to a different method. I take it that this is the correct link for everything: https://iqss.github.io/MatchingFrontier/ @Greifer, Noah ***@***.***> can you update https://projects.iq.harvard.edu/frontier/home too? and LMK what page on my website should be changed?

That makes sense to me.

What if we remove the installation and documentation tabs from that website, then on the front page link to @ngreifer's git repo, which is the most up-to-date? That preserves the link (which we included in the AJPS article) but consolidates documentation so we don't have to update docs in multiple locations.

[ngreifer]

Yes, I think that is a good idea (also remove the mailing list, since GitHub issues is a better place for discussion). You could also make it so that the link in the AJPS article automatically redirects to https://iqss.github.io/MatchingFrontier/ and remove that page entirely. I don't have access to that website so I can't update it.

Good idea. I'll do that.

[thegaryking]

Also, @Greifer, Noah ***@***.***>, I've added you as an administrator of https://projects.iq.harvard.edu/frontier. Can you make the changes? also LMK what should be changed on anything else including my site. Gary -- *Gary King* - Albert J.

Okay, I updated the site to include the relevant links and instructions and removed the mailing list. Make sure everything looks okay.

https://projects.iq.harvard.edu/frontier/home

The website is loading very slowly today.

Looks good to me, thanks Noah.
