-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I will happily back up in the following languages, with guidance by the appropriate primaries: German, French, English Does it make sense to partially filter by regions, if such is apparent (in empirical papers, it often is)?

In the last two days I think there has been a positive response amongst NEP editors to Ekkehart's offer. So now that this body is growing I suggest that sooner rather than we split MPRA into two lists: one dealing with technical issues and other dealing with editing topics. This is the case at NEP. Otherwise editors get bombarded with stuff they can't make head from tails and "switch off".

If instructions or descriptions are included, everything should be bundled in a single zip file. Would this be o.k.? Maybe instructions and descriptions are usefully included. Ekkehart

If a user uploads more than one PDF file, every PDF file will be displayed at the abstract page, like in the following example: http://epub.ub.uni-muenchen.de/archive/00000558/ Volker

[Fwd: Proposal for MPRA guidelines]

Here a first proposal for editorial guidelines: 1. The paper should be of academic nature. 2. The topic should relate to economics, including the contiguous social and behavioral sciences. 3. Advertisements are not accepted, but review articles are. 4. The paper must be complete and downloadable. Abstracts without a downloadable paper are not accepted. 5. Software items must be checked for malware, such as viruses and trojans. Please comment. Ekkehart
