Better than a change log… a blog!

Welcome to the new NORM/Vowels.R blog!  (The old change log is still available here: http://ncslaap.lib.ncsu.edu/tools/norm/changelog.php.)

Erik Thomas and I get lots of good questions about using the NORM website (http://ncslaap.lib.ncsu.edu/tools/norm/) and about the Vowels package for R, and about theoretical and methodological issues in vowel analysis more generally.  This blog is intended as a place where I can share some of these questions and some of the answers that might be more widely useful.  It’s also a place where we can make announcements about changes to the software, or bugs that users should know about.

It’s been a while since I’ve updated NORM or Vowels and I’m overdue for making some improvements.  Hopefully this blog means some long overdue updates are coming soon…
