This is nonsense (like the whole button). Deposits should'nt be
transferred from one repository to another. At RWTH Aachen IR there is
no possibility to deposit eprints from former affiliations. I do not
appreciate this but the reason is the connection with the university
bibliography.

If an author dies should he be encouraged to export all his deposits
to heaven or hell??
