[Pw_forum] forces in full LDA+U scheme are not yet implemented

Dear Raj kamal,

I do not know much about the implementation of forces with the full LDA+U.
if your system could be treated well also with the simpler version LDA+U,
using lda_plus_u_kind = 0 and maybe a finite Hubbard_J0, forces (and
stresses) are implemented for this case.

Best regards,

Matteo
