FEniCS is a collaborative effort towards the development of free software for automated solution of differential equations. Since its inception in 2003, the FEniCS project has come a long way and many of our software components are now starting to mature. As a result, FEniCS is now becoming more accessible and useful to a wider audience. As an example, we are approaching the release of version 1.0 of DOLFIN, the finite element problem solving environment developed as
part of FEniCS, the release of which will mark an important milestone for FEniCS.

This workshop will be an opportunity to hear about these recent developments and to discuss and map out future directions.
