Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls

It is my pleasure to announce the official release of Moses, version 2.1.
It's taken a year to do and there's lots of changes.

The most noticeable is that the moses.ini file format has changed, due to
lots of behind the scene refactoring to make it easier to extend Moses. The
documentation throughout the website has been updated to reflect the
changes. However, the decoder is still compatible with the old ini file in
most cases.

More people than ever are contributing to the Moses toolkit. Here are just
some of the thing that they've done:
   1. Transliteration Phrase-Table by Nadir Durrani
   2. DALM integration by Jun-ya Norimatsu.
   3. CoveredReferenceFeature by Ales Tamchyna. Also, constrained Decoding
by Hieu Hoang.
   4. Picaro by Jason Riesa.
   5. Neural LM by Lane Schwartz.
   6. Tokenization configuration files for Greek and Tamil by Dimitris
Mavroeidis and Arththika Paramanathan.
   7. DIMwid by Robin Kurtz.
   8. Placeholder by Achim Ruopp and Hieu Hoang.
   9. Backward LM by lane Schwartz.
    10. Multimodel phrase-table by Rico Sennrich.
    11. Operation Sequence Model by Nadir Durrani.
    12. Alternate weight setting by Philipp Koehn.
    13. Lattice and confusion network phrase-based decoding with any
phrase-tables by Hieu Hoang.
    14. Ondisk phrase-table for phrase-based model by Hieu Hoang.
    15. Clearer error messages by Hieu Hoang.
    16. Updated Windows GUI by Jie Jiang
