[RAS] Fwd: [RePEc-run] Have the latest redif.spec

[Ivan Kurmanov]

Sune and all,

I am sorry, this is partially my fault. I wrote an email about that back in
November 2011 to RePEc-run, but it had not reached anyone (since my email
address was not subscribed). And I didn't realize it had not reached anyone.

It is difficult to ensure now that all the person templates are displaying
affiliations consistently. It would mean regenerate the templates for
everyone, which is slow and expensive in CPU time.

We can remove the arrows in the Workplace-Name.
