Hello all, The major event last month was the launch of the Munich Personal RePEc Archive at http://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/ or http://mpra.repec.org/, which allows users who do not benefit from an institutional RePEc archive to upload papers and have them listed on RePEc. Several commercial publishers have also extended the coverage of their journals on RePEc, thereby giving a significant push to our listings. Traffic has picked up after the Summer lull, 430,417 file downloads and 1,674,947 abstract views over last month. The following thresholds were passed: 425000 listed items 320000 listed online items 225000 articles 190000 working papers 180000 online articles 130000 working papers with abstracts 13000 NEP reports Christian Zimmermann FIGUGEGL!
