>I am currently digging my way into the topic "comparative, multi-
>country, and time-series data" marked uo with DDI. In the process I
>ran into the "Voorburg Compromise" presented at the DDI Working
>Group Meeting in Amsterdam on May 17, 2001. Does anybody know
>how I could get a hold of this compromise or the PPP done by Emiel
>Kaper?
>The other question would be, which archive is also trying to come to
>grips with e.g. cross-country studies and would like to exchange
>ideas?
>I would appreciate comments very much.
