Dear Colleague,
 
Some minor updates to DL_MESO 2.7 have been made and are now available for 
registered users to download as a revised version of the package (2.7 rev 09). 
You do not need to re-register for this update if you have previously 
registered for an earlier form of version 2.7: the revised package can be 
downloaded from the same location as before and decrypted using the same 
password. If you would like to use version 2.7 but have not yet registered for 
this version (e.g. if you have previously registered for version 2.6), please 
do so via the link from the DL_MESO website at www.ccp5.ac.uk/DL_MESO

Changes made to DL_MESO include corrections to pseudopotential calculations in the 
LBE code for Soave-Redlich-Kwong and Peng-Robinson cubic equations of state that 
are dependent on local temperature, and bug fixes in the DPD code for reading the 
positions of reflecting boundaries and application of long-range corrections to 
stress tensors. Other minor changes include improvements to OUTPUT file writing in 
the DPD code, the addition of a verbose mode option and corrected timing of file 
reading in the Widom insertion utility, minor changes to file writing by the local 
properties utility (local.F90), and removal of extraneous lines in the dipole 
utility. Updates to the user manual and README files have been made, as well as the 
inclusion of a new file (Release.md) indicating the changes made to DL_MESO for 
major versions and minor revisions. 

Many thanks are due to Karel Sindelka at ICPF in Prague for reporting the 
reflecting boundary issue and to Vlad Sokhan at UKRI STFC Daresbury Laboratory for 
suggesting the long-range corrections bug fix and the verbose mode option for the 
Widom insertion utility.
