Announcement for Dynare 6.3
===========================================
We are pleased to announce the release of Dynare 6.3.
This maintenance release fixes various bugs.
The Windows, macOS, MATLAB online and source packages are available for
download at [the Dynare website](https://www.dynare.org/download/).
This release is compatible with MATLAB versions ranging from 9.5 (R2018b) to
24.2 (R2024b), and with GNU Octave versions ranging from 7.1.0 to 9.2.0 (NB:
the Windows package requires version 9.2.0 specifically).
Here is a list of the problems identified in version 6.2 and that have been
fixed in version 6.3:
* OccBin with option `smoother_inversion_filter` would crash the MCMC estimation if the `filtered_variables` or `filter_step_ahead` options were used
* OccBin with option `smoother_inversion_filter` would use the PKF if `mh_replic>0`
* OccBin with option `smoothed_state_uncertainty` would crash Dynare if the MCMC smoother was run after the classical one
* OccBin's smoother would crash when encountering an internal error due to the output of the linear smoother not having been computed
* Calling `model_info` with `differentiate_forward_vars` would crash
* The `identification` command would compute the asymptotic Hessian via simulation instead of via moments as intended
* The `identification` command would crash during prior sampling if the initial draw did not solve the model
* The `gsa_sample_file` was broken
* Optimization algorithm `mode_compute=5` (`newrat`) would crash with `analytic_derivation`
* `discretionary_policy` would crash if the model was purely forward-looking
* The `dsample` command would crash
* The `conditional_forecast_paths` block did not accept vector inputs
* For MCMC chains with fewer than 6000 draws, the default number of `sub_draws` used to compute posterior moments was incorrect
* Bi-annual dates (e.g. `2024S1` or `2024H1`) were not accepted within Dynare statements
* Plotting `dseries` did not correctly show dates on the x-axis
