<DIV>Dear all,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This summer several users of SPECFEM3D_GLOBE had informed us that the </DIV>
<DIV>latest version of the code was unstable. Daniel Peter has just found and </DIV>
<DIV>fixed the problem, therefore please get the new version and you should </DIV>
<DIV>be all set.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Please inform us if you still get stability issues.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you,</DIV>
<DIV>Best regards,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Dimitri.</DIV>

<DIV>PS: that new version of SPECFEM3D_GLOBE has several other bug fixes and </DIV>
<DIV>improvements (in particular in the case of viscoelasticity); therefore </DIV>
<DIV>we encourage users to upgrade to version 5.1.5.</DIV>
