[Massimiliano Bonomi]

The PLUMED Developers Team is proud to announce that the NEW version 
of PLUMED 1.3 is available at www.plumed-code.org

PLUMED is a plugin for free-energy calculations in molecular systems 
that can be interfaced, through a simple patch procedure, with some of 
the most popular classical and ab-initio molecular dynamics codes. 
PLUMED provides easy access to umbrella sampling, metadynamics, 
steered md and many other enhanced sampling and free-energy methods.
