I recently stumbled on a package from @johnmyleswhite circa julia v0.3 that had some functionality I needed, though it hadn’t been updated for a while. It was a fairly simple code base, and I was able to [get it working on julia v1.6](https://github.com/johnmyleswhite/PowerAnalysis.jl/pull/2).

John doesn’t have time to maintain it, and he agreed that I could take it over, though I’m by no means an expert on this topic. Before I register it, I thought I’d post here for comments/suggestions. In particular, I wanted to know

1. Would it be possible to absorb it into the JuliaStats org? I’m happy to remain a steward either way.
2. Is there anything glaring that needs to be addressed?

Thanks!

JuliaStats seems like the right place.

@andreasnoack or @ararslan should be able to help you transfer it to JuliaStats.

I wouldn’t mind helping out. I have a tiny bit of professional experience doing power calculations but have interest in having a working power calculation package for economics.
