It really is very difficult to measure the popularity of software, especially
for its specificity and use. An approach to statistical software is located in
the following article: http://r4stats.com/articles/popularity/

The file format used by Stata is not popular as the format of SPSS (facto
standard), however, Stata is widely used in research (quick search on research
articles: sociology, psychology, economics, biostatistics, etc.), which has
increased in recent years for its ease of use, better performance,
cross-platform support (native gui gtk+ 2 in Linux) and low cost (compared to
alternatives).

LibreOffice can give freedom to students and researchers, to preserve their
data matrix and perform basic analysis, charts, diagrams, etc., without relying
on a proprietary application.

I appreciate your consideration
Cheers

Greater file format support is generally a good thing. That being said:
* How popular is the DTA file format?
* How many users of Stata will want to import their data into LibreOffice?

Priority here might turn out to be lower.

> DTA file spec:

Providing the spec and test files is greatly appreciated!

Status -> NEW
