Kārlis & Christian,

I have downloaded and compiled your lattice MERT. I am interested in
giving it a try, and would be grateful for any assistance you might be
able to provide in setting it up.

Would you mind sending me a copy of your modified mert-moses.pl that
calls latticemert?

Thanks,
Lane Schwartz
