Dear list members,

I was wondering whether anyone knows if it is possible to use the fisk
distribution family with a mixed model?

I have found the family in the VGAM package and it seems possible to do a
GLM using the vglm function in the same package. But this function doesnt
seem to allow for random effects. I have tried it in lmer and it tells me
that the family is not recognized


Error in glmer(formula = CRR ~ trt + (1 | fence), data = experimental,  :
  family '<S4 object of class structure("vglmff", package = "VGAM")>'
not recognized


Any suggestions would be much appreciated,

Thanks in advance,

Alan Haynes
