Hello Neville, why did you send the message twice?
Metadynamics is implemented in NAMD 2.7b2, correct. The convergence
of the method depends entirely on the properties of the system and on
the choice of your variables.
Regarding multiple walkers, there was a message exactly two weeks ago
on this mailing list. The subject will be most likely part of a
metadynamics tutorial.
