This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-lme4 package of lme4, a GNU R
package of classes and methods for fitting and
examining linear mixed effects models (also called multilevel models,
panel data models, and several other names) and generalized linear
mixed models.

This package was created by Douglas Bates <bates@stat.wisc.edu>.
The sources were downloaded from 
	http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/

The package was renamed from its upstream name 'lme4' to 'r-cran-lme4'
to highlight the fact that is it a CRAN package for R.
