Do you have any approximation when this feature will be available?

We are currently working on arbitrary N-level atom support in Meep. To do it properly, you really need to modify the Meep source code; it cannot be done purely externally just by calling the Meep API. (2-level atom support was available as an undocumented feature in an early version of Meep, but it was removed in 1.1 pending a more complete implementation.)
No, we don't have a schedule right now; that particular feature is something we've been working on off and on, but isn't currently a high priority because we aren't using it at the moment for our own research.

You can check out a copy of the current development repository by doing

        darcs get http://ab-initio.mit.edu/~meep/meep

and take a look at things as they stand now. The new code is in src/ multilevel-atom.cpp, and has just gotten to the testing stage (but is not working yet).

See also the "Meep for developers" instructions in the Meep Installation manual.

(The latest development version has some other new stuff that is better tested, like anisotropic polarizable materials.)
