Hi Tom

mert-moses-new.pl adds some extra feature such as:

- correct implementation random restarts (which can be switched off)
- the ability to optimise to metrics other than bleu (although you have to 
implement them yourself)
- the ability to choose case-sensitive or case-insensitive bleu
- the 'previous aggregate nbest list' option, where you can specify how many 
of the previous nbest lists you wish to use on each iteration. this may speed 
up tuning if you use large nbest lists.

In addition. mert-moses-new.pl is more actively maintained and the plan is to 
delete mert-moses.pl at some point in the future,

regards
Barry
