Dear sir,
Thank you very much for your kind informations.
I'm now researching on the electrostatic fields and 
magnetostatic fields of the vacuum interrupter. I'd like to 
obtain some helpful solver for those fields with tetrahedron 
meshes, if you have and may permit me to use those solvers.
Hoping your web site will be a most popular site in the 
world.....
Your helpful informations will be highly appreciated.

Best regards
S.K.Choi
