Developments in the measurements of oscillator strengths, that are of current and future interest to astrophysics, have taken place in the past few years:

  1. there is increased emphasis on methods which are independent of level populations (i.e., of number densities and thus equilibrium in the vapour or plasma under investigation),

  2. clear progress has been made towards higher precision (and accuracy) and

  3. the dynamic range of astrophysically relevant oscillator strengths was further extended towards weaker lines.
