OpenMEEG provides state-of-the art tools for low-frequency bio-electromagnetism, notably solving forward problems related to EEG and MEG  [60] , [61] . It implements the symmetric BEM which provides excellent accuracy and versatility. OpenMEEG is a free open software written in C++. It can be accessed either through a command line interface or through Python/Matlab interfaces. The first release has been directly downloaded about 600 times since October 2008. Our last release (in September 2011) has been downloaded more than 2000 times to this date. OpenMEEG has been integrated in the neuro-debian distribution (http://neuro.debian.net/ ) and matlab suites (such as BrainStorm, FieldTrip or SPM) which may represent many more indirect downloads. Work is under progress to integrate it into the BESA commercial software, and discussions with other software companies are also ongoing.
