You can checkout the master branch from the Git repository.   See 
http://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=pspp for further information.

     Thanks as well sir J' for acknowledging my comments.  May I ask where can 
I try that development "master" branch?  Does it contain already the bivariate 
correlation?
     
     I also got the response from Jason Stover and they're moving forward to 
meeting stepwise regression and I'm very glad to hear that PSPP's development 
is in progress.  I know it's not that easy but atleast one step forward each 
day keep us near to our goals.
     
     I'll look to into the development "master" branch and will give my 
feedback soon.
     
     Thanks and best regards,

     Thanks very much for your comments.
     
     Bivariate correlation has recently been added, but it's not available in 
any 
     released version.  However if you're willing to try the development 
"master"
     branch then we'd appreciate any feedback you can offer.
     
     Jason Stover wrote the Linear Regression code, so perhaps he can comment 
on the 
     Stepwise method.

          Before anything else, I'd like first to introduce
          myself... I'm Jason Salas, a freelance statistician and an MBA student
          here in Philippines.
         
          I'd like to express my great appreciation in finding the statistical 
software PSPP which is almost similar to SPSS.  Upon getting familiar with SPSS,
          I found four (4) modules in it that are very useful namely: 1)  
Descriptive Statistics; 2) Compare Means; 3) Correlate - Bivariate; and 4) 
Linear Regression - Stepwise Method.
         
          However,
          the last 2 modules: 3) Correlate - Bivariate; and 4) Linear Regression
          - Stepwise Method are not available is PSPP.  In Linear Regression in
          PSPP, only Enter Method is being used and not the Stepwise Method 
which
          is available in SPSS.
         
          With these, can I request and suggest that
          these two modules be made available in PSPP soon?  PSPP would be
          greatly helpful and be appreciated more by advanced statisticians if
          these two modules are available.  I take the initiative to suggest 
this
          to your developers if no one else will do.  I have a positive outlook
          that PSPP will outsmart other statistical software if it has these two
          very indispensable modules.
