R help - Oct 2008 - Question of "Quantile Regression for Longitudinal Data".

Hi, 

I am trying to estimate a quantile regression using panel data. I am trying
to use the model that is described in Dr. Koenker's article. So I use the
code the that is posted in the following link: 

http://www.econ.uiuc.edu/~roger/research/panel/rq.fit.panel.R

This code run perfectly. Then I want to know what the result means.The
result show $ierr,$it,and $time. What these estimators means in quantile
panel data?
And does $coef ,the coefficient estimators order by m*p + n elements?

Here comes my questions What do these estimators' mean in quantile panel
data? And does the coefficient, $coef, estimators order by m*p + n elements?


Thanks 
I really would appreciate some suggestions. 
Best
Helen Chen

This is really NOT an R-help question.  You just need to read the code  
more carefully
and everything will be revealed there.  This isn't  like the Pisan  
Cantos.
