| Info |
|---|
As the OpenIFS project and model is still relatively new and under development, we ask interested users to send a short description of their intended use of the model. Our aim is to work closely with new users to provide good support & training in return for feedback which we can use for reporting purposes. This may mean that from time to time we temporarily suspend new licenses in order not to overload our support capabilities. |
