[RePEc-announce] RePEc in March 2005

[Christian Zimmermann]

Hello all.

Several important events this month. First WopEc and BibEc have now 
definitively shut down. All traffic to these websites is now being 
redirected to EconPapers. Second, a new mailing list was created for 
archive maintainers who are interested in being more involved in RePEc or 
who are simply interested in its operation and want to discuss it. 
Subscription details are at 
http://lists.openlib.org/mailman/listinfo/repec-archives

We had once again huge traffic on the RePEc sites, and download records 
have been smashed. Over the past month, we had 476,576 file downloads and 
1,711,764 abstract views.

Thresholds passed during the month:

400,000 monthly downloads
110,000 items listed in registered author profiles
450 participating archives
400 journals
