Introduction
The generic fitting package Gfitter comprises a framework for the statistical analysis of parameter estimation problems in HEP. It is specifically designed to provide a user-friendly environment for involved fitting problems, such as the global Standard Model fit to electroweak precision data. During its development, it was found that Gfitter is also a convenient framework for averaging problems, ranging from simple weighted means using or not correlated input data, to more involved problems with common systematic errors, requiring or not parameter rescaling.
