[gpaw-users] DFT-D3

I would suggest instead you use the build-in dftd3 calculator in ASE. This requires you install Grimme's reference implementation of dftd3 on your system. The calculator is documented here: 
https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/ase/ase/calculators/dftd3.html
I wrote both calculators (the one I linked above, and the one Jens linked), but the ased3 calculator is very buggy. The new built-in dftd3 calculator is not parallel, but it is much more robust and uses the reference dftd3 implementation.
