Latest documentation can be accessed on the wiki at http://euroreves.ined.fr/imach/wiki/index.php/Documentation

There is a public mailing list of IMaCh's users. You can +subscribe by sending a mail to imach-users-subscribe@listes.ined.fr +(and unsubscribe with imach-users-unsubscribe@listes.ined.fr) + for help, comments and + reports on the performance (see the Performance section of + the wiki).

If you ask for help, it is usually easier to send the parameter file, the .log file as well as some records of the datafile. + +

IMaCh Wiki

As discussed at the REVES meeting +in Beijing, +we created a Wiki for IMaCh were people having used IMaCh (or having +not been able to use it because of obscure or unadequate features) can +add tips and discuss various aspects of IMaCh and interface with other +statistical softwares. In many aspects, our "official documentation" +is not accurate enough. + +

Wikis are a promising way to give information closer to your +expectations. It also a very dynamic movement if you consider the +first International +Wikimedia Conference in Francfurt (August 2005), where most Wikis +were represented and in +particular Wikipedia. + +
