I've put up a private roadmap page on Confluence. Feel free to add / edit /
comment.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/JOSHUA/Private+Roadmap
Johns, the hook is that there are a lot of NLP tools that one can download and
use (Berkeley Parser, spacy, etc), which have prebuilt models and just work —
black box. But there is nothing like that for MT! Nothing you can just download
and easily run, without caring about how it works or wanting to improve it. We
want to build MT as a tool that people can easily include in their projects.
Making MT available in this way will lead to uses that we haven't imagined.
