[R-pkgs] glm2 version 1.1

[Ian Marschner]

glm2 (1.1) is now available on CRAN.

glm2 fits generalized linear models using the same model specification
as glm, but with a modified fitting method that is more stable for
models that may fail to converge using glm (see: R Journal 3/2, 2011,
pp.12-15).

The previous version of glm2 had to be archived because it called a
Fortran routine no longer available in R >= 2.15.1. This has been
addressed in the current version of glm2.
