lme4

Dear Prof. Ben,

I'm writing you because I have the following question.

For R package lme4 version 0.999999-2 the glmer function uses by default
|bobyqa| for first phase and Nelder-Mead for second phase?

Sincerely,

I believe that old versions of lme4 (pre 1.0) used the nlminb
optimizer for all optimizations (there was no choice of optimizer).

  I would suggest being extremely careful with versions of lme4 prior to
1.0 used on R 3.1.0 or greater -- people have reported problems, which
we haven't had the opportunity to track down.
