This post should go the r-sig-mixed-models list, where you are much
more likely to get useful help than here, which is a general R
programming help list.

dear R-users,
I have to model counts where all counts above some threshold
have been censored. In the same dataset I have too many zeroes for
a Poisson or even a negative binomial distribution to make
sense, so I would need a zero-inflated-censored negative binomial
family for use in glmer (or glmmADMB?). That seems not to exist.
my question is :
how could I add a custom-built family of distributions that
I could call in glmer/glmmADMM ?
if it's not possible, I am considering imputing fake values
to replace the censored ones, but I am unsure whether this
is bad or very bad...
