TO DO LIST:
-----------

26/11/2010 TO DO:
  fitted.GLMM_MCMC not yet implemented for situations when there are only fixed effects in the model

14/06/2010 TO DO:
  In GLMM_Deviance.cpp
       Commands:  *marg_ll_iP += *w_k * AK_Basic::exp0_AK(loglik_k);  (around line 239)
                  *marg_ll_iP = AK_Basic::log0_AK(*marg_ll_iP); (around line 252)
       In the case of the poisson response, it would be desirable to add log(y!) to loglik_k before exp-it    
       and subtract it again after log the mixture sum. With higher counts, loglik_k is quite considerably negative
       which leads to exp(-Inf) = 0 and then upon log again, we get -Inf log-likelihood where
       -Inf is artificial due to imprecise calculation with numbers close to zero.

of the same type, e.g., binomial, were included in the model).

Minor changes related to the final JSS submission.

22/09/2013 (version 3.5):
Gauss-Hermite quadrature inside the fitted.GLMM_MCMC function implemented using the 
functions from the 'fastGHQuad' package. Arguments x2, z2 are no more needed.

16/08/2013 (version 3.4-2):
Function NMixRelabel.GLMM_MCMClist allows for a joint processing of two chains
(jointly = TRUE).

06/08/2013 (version 3.4-1):
Functions rWishart and dWishart renamed to rWISHART and dWISHART to avoid
conflicts with rWishart in package stats.

05/08/2013 (version 3.4):
Most dependencies moved from "Depends" to "Imports" in the DESCRIPTION file
and solved via importFrom in the NAMESPACE.

18/07/2013 (version 3.2-4):
Changes of names of some components inside the objects of classes NMixMCMC and GLMM_MCMC:
comp.prob2 --> comp.prob_b
comp.prob3 --> comp.prob

poster.comp.prob1 --> poster.comp.prob_u
poster.comp.prob2 --> poster.comp.prob_b
poster.comp.prob3 --> poster.comp.prob

quant.comp.prob1 --> quant.comp.prob_u
quant.comp.prob2 --> quant.comp.prob_b
quant.comp.prob3 --> quant.comp.prob

08/02/2013:
Support for parallel computation originally provided by snowfall/snow packages changed to parallel package.

01/05/2012:
All pdf vignettes moved to my personal webpage (to decrease the size of the package which must be stored on CRAN).

18/12/2011:
GLMM_MCMC creates by default two parallel chains and calculates also PED, support for parallel computation 
on multicore CPUs using snowfall/snow packages added.

20/01/2011:
beta in GLMM_MCMC function (and all related) was renamed to alpha to be in agreement with papers.

29/11/2010:

(both NMixMCMC and GLMM_MCMC version).

08/12/2009

22/11/2009
Function NMixClust renamed to NMixPlugDA.

06/11/2009
Bugs in GLMM_updateRanEf.cpp found and fixed:  
  * eta_random was computed incorrectly as Z %*% bscaled and not as Z %*% b, where b = shift + diag(scale) %*% b
  * pointers in the final part of the code did not shift correctly
