Development version of lme4 now passes its tests
You're correct, Bernd, that the versions available by install.packages from the repository at R-forge.R-packages.org appear to be out of date. Even the tar.gz file scm-latest.tar.gz is out of date (apparently from January 04). Those who can build a package from the source files can obtain the latest version from the SVN archive at R-forge (instructions are given at the SCM tab on the main project page). I have just submitted the package to Uwe's win-builder.R-project.org site to create a binary Windows package, which I will make available on my web site as http://www.stat.wisc.edu/~bates/lme4-2008-01-06-wiin32.zip Stefan: Will someone be able to check on what is happening to the nightly builds?

Neither <install.packages("lme4", repos ...> nor the SCM approach ("win32-latest.zip") works properly. Some of my datasets are very strange... with respect to multilevel modelling, of course (N ~ 80.000, K = 15, binary dependent variable). So, it would be interesting to (1) replicate former results. In addition, (2) I would like to compare lmer results with MLWwiN and Stata (xtlogit, gllamm, xtmelogit).
