Hello all, It seems to be a tradition, traffic on RePEc beat new records as usual in March. Precisely, we got 641,336 file downloads and 2,227,887 abstract views, surpassing for the first time 600,000 downloads in a month. To put it in perspective, this is about one download every four seconds. In other news, IDEAS now has a new feature which allows the creation of customized publication compilations.
