[RePEc-archives] Technical and/or marketing issues...

[Jonas Holmstr ö m]

Hi all,

This list was created so that RePEc archive maintainers would have a forum
to discuss common issues. The first thing I come to think of as a potential
topic for discussion is of course the technical challenges involved in
maintaining an archive. However, I think that this list could also be used
to discuss any other issues that are of common concern to archive
maintainers.

I would for example be interested to learn if, and in that case how, you as
archive maintainers actively promote RePEc to students and faculty.
Have you for example made use of the RePEc brochure
(http://www.repec.org/docs/RePEc.ltr2005.pdf)?
Or would you prefer something more similar to BioMedCentral's posters
(http://www.biomedcentral.com/info/about/advocacy5)?

On a more general level, it would also be interesting to know if there is
something else that could be done from "the RePEc side" to make life easier
for archive maintainers.

What do you think?
