There appears to be a disk problem on snefru, in the volume that holds the copy of nebka. I will report more as I gather evidence about the problem. I will discuss the problem on this list.

frozen record
by Christian Zimmermann 15 Apr '08

15 Apr '08

Trying to remove an item from someone's profile, I cannot find it in the identified works online. Looking at the xml file, I find: <list-item> <authors>Silke Anger & Michael Kvasnicka</authors> <frozen>1204922780</frozen> <id>repec:hum:wpaper:sfb649dp2006-089</id> What is this frozen? I find nothing about it in the doc. It is also disturbing that this item is present in the rdf file, but is not visible online to the author... Christian Zimmermann FIGUGEGL!
