Hi S+ users.

I fit the following model
test <- glm(formula=v1 ~ v2*v3, 
        family=quasi(link="log", var="mu^2"), 
	 data=test.df,  maxit = 50)

If I restrict dispersion=1 as following,
summary(test, dispersion = 1) 
it works.

If I restrict dispersion=1.1 it works.

But if I put 
summary(test, dispersion > 1) 
it does not work.

Is there a way to restrict dispersion > 1 ?
Thanks a lot.
