[CTPP] re: CTPP2000 release schedule?

Felix: According to the CTPP Powerpoint presentation on the TRB census data subcommittee site (http://www.mcs.com/~berwyned/census/) the CTPP 2000 will be released on a flow basis starting Fall 2002. This is a definitely faster schedule than the 1990 CTPP -- the first statewide packages were released in Spring '93. (And some of the last urban element CDs were produced by BTS in 1997....) One of the earlier products that the Census Bureau produced was the county-to-county total commuters file (STF S-5) released December 1992. The CTPP 2000 powerpoint presentation made some reference to this product, but it would be useful if the Bureau could give us some idea of the likelihood of such a product by, say, summer '02???? In terms of "regular" census products, we should be anticipating the "hundred percent sample file" (HSF) in the spring of '01; and the "sample survey file" (SSF) in the spring of '02. Or for us old-timers, STF1 in Spring '01 and STF3 in Spring '02. A question of mine is: will the CTPP tabulations be based on unadjusted or adjusted counts? Another question: will there be a separate statewide and urban element?
