My impression from reading through the mailing list archive is that lmer now
supports weights (whereas previously they were ignored).  My question is:
can lmer can make proper use of weights from a survey -- that is, weights
based on the probability of a unit being sampled?
If lmer could do this, then I wouldn't have to use the HLM software (which
is proprietary, expensive, and awkward to interface with). This would make
my life over the next few months SO much better than it will otherwise
be....

fingers crossed...
