We have added a chat feature for users. This can also be found from the support tab on http://www.poissonboltzmann.org/.

Known Bugs

  • Travis CI Linux builds are breaking because Geometric Flow relies on C++11 and Travis boxen have an old GCC that doth not support C++11. This is also an issue for CentOS 5
  • BEM is temprarily disabled due to build issues
  • Geometric Flow build is currently broken on Windows using Visual Studio
