We would like to announce the availability on CRAN of a new package multinomRob. It does robust estimation of overdispersed multinomial regression models. The package is also able to estimate overdispersed grouped multinomial logistic and multivariate-t logistic models. The code is relatively general; for example, it allows for equality constraints across parameters and it can handle datasets in which the number of categories varies by observation.
