Cf. my comments last week about test procedures for GLMs with overdispersion. I don't at all mind non-compatibility with S-PLUS (I don't use it any more myself), especially for good reason; I can also appreciate not wanting to match the changing inconsistencies of some areas in S-PLUS. It would be nice to be able to flag areas that are known to be different, though. > > OK, I guess enough venting for the day... > > Cheers, > Andy > > [...] > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > ______________________________________________ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > http://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > -- 318 Carr Hall [EMAIL PROTECTED] Zoology Department, University of Florida http://www.zoo.ufl.edu/bolker Box 118525 (ph) 352-392-5697 Gainesville, FL 32611-8525 (fax) 352-392-3704 ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
