EPA has released a beta version of the Dietary Exposure Evaluation Model-Food Commodity Intake Database (DEEM-FCID) to the public. We’d like to hear what you think of this software, so please participate in the discussion. We would appreciate any feedback you can give us on the

• installation process,
• operating system and
• software compatibility issues.

In addition, we are interested in comments regarding

• the data,
• ease of running the program and
• the input of data.

These discussions will help us refine the usability of the software for later final release to the public which is expected in spring 2012.
