[Q-e-developers] Advanced Quantum ESPRESSO Developers' Meeting 2016 (linear-response)

[Iurii Timrov]

Dear All,

Thank you for participating in the Doodle questioner! The Skype/WebEx 
conference about the linear-response codes will be on June, 22 at 4 PM 
Trieste time.

Since the number of participants is more than 10, we are going to use 
WebEx.

Many thanks to all!

Kind regards,
Iurii
