[R-sig-ME] Posterior probability of attitude parameters in a Rasch model

[Yvonnick Noel]

> Or you can use the irt.ability function in the MiscPsycho package that yields MLEs, EAPs, or MAPs given some item parameters
Thank you very much for pointing this library to me. It looks like this 
is what I need.
