[R-sig-ME] prior specification for bivariate MCMCglmm model

[Walid Mawass]

Hello everyone,

I am working with a bivariate model which includes gaussian and poisson 
distributions. I am trying to figure out the proper prior specification 
specifically for the (co)variance matrices. This is what I have used so far:

prior <- list(R = list(V=diag(2), nu =3), G=list(G1 = list(V=diag(2), nu 
=3)))

Thank you for any feedback
