The third Nordic and Baltic Stata User Group Meeting was held in Stockholm 17-18 September 2009, and was much appreciated. It was jointly organized by the Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, the National Institute of Environmental Medicine at Karolinska Institutet (www.ki.se), and Metrika Consulting (www.metrika.se).

The meeting was open to all interested. Personnel from StataCorp attended; Roberto G. Gutierrez who is Director of Statistics at StataCorp and Yulia Marchenko who is a Senior Statistician at StataCorp and is the developer of the new mi command. They talked about some of the new exciting features of Stata 11, and there was also the usual `wishes and grumbles' session at which the participants aired their thoughts to the Stata developers.
