Brief History of Firefox Translation Sample Clauses

Brief History of Firefox Translation. ‌ Firefox translation has had a long and fruitless history within Mozilla. There have been at least two diGerent eGorts over the last 5 years to integrate translation into the browser. Both have failed. Figure 2: Screenshot of Firefox displaying a translated web page. The Intellego Project, the first eGort which started at the beginning of 2014, planned to “provide a single platform for (machine translation) en- gine developers and a unified web service that hosts a number of diGerent language pairs/engines/implementations in the back end,” allowing users to “select from a number of open MT engines based on the most promin- ent MT methodologies in order to find the best target MT output for their on-the-fly translation.” The approach of the Intellego Project, while laudable, had many flaws, several of them obvious several of them more subtle. For example, the Intel- lego Project took no consideration of how the costs of the servers would be handled. Shouldering the costs of a small number of translations is not prob- lematic. However, in scaling this to the entire user base of Firefox, server costs quickly become a major issue. The Intellego Project also did not take maintenance into consideration. Maintaining a single internal translation engine for all the languages Firefox supports is a huge undertaking. Main- taining numerous external translation engines for all the languages Firefox supports is basically an impossible task when one wants maintain quality and operate at scale. Another problem, the Intellego Project didn’t fully con- sider the motivations of external parties with translation engines. A large percentage of these external parties with high quality engines would un- derstandably want to monetize their engines, reaping the benefits of their investments in time and money. The Intellego Project assumed that these parties would, without any monetary compensation, provide access to their engines and models. One can explore further issues with the Intellego Pro- ject, but these give a flavor of the reasons the project failed. The second eGort, which started in the middle of 2018, planned to integ- rate Google translation services into Firefox as part of a larger business deal switching Mozilla’s infrastructure over to Google’s Cloud Platform (GCP). This eGort was more grounded in the realities of what is required to sup- port a translation engine at scale. However, the specifics of the larger busi- ness deal shifted and, despite Mozilla’s move t...

The Administrative Agent shall determine the US Dollar Equivalent of any Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than US Dollars as of the date such Letter of Credit is issued, amended to increase its face amount, extended or renewed and as of the last Business Day of each subsequent calendar quarter, in each case using the Exchange Rate for such currency in relation to US Dollars in effect on the date that is three Business Days prior to the date on which such Letter of Credit is issued, amended to increase its face amount, extended or renewed and as of the last Business Day of such subsequent calendar quarter, as the case may be, and each such amount shall, except as provided in the last two sentences of this Section, be the US Dollar Equivalent of such Letter of Credit until the next required calculation thereof pursuant to this sentence.

  • Pricing for Registry Services (a) With respect to initial domain name registrations, Registry Operator shall provide ICANN and each ICANN accredited registrar that has executed the registry-­‐registrar agreement for the TLD advance written notice of any price increase (including as a result of the elimination of any refunds, rebates, discounts, product tying or other programs which had the effect of reducing the price charged to registrars, unless such refunds, rebates, discounts, product tying or other programs are of a limited duration that is clearly and conspicuously disclosed to the registrar when offered) of no less than thirty (30) calendar days. Registry Operator shall offer registrars the option to obtain initial domain name registrations for periods of one (1) to ten (10) years at the discretion of the registrar, but no greater than ten (10) years. (b) With respect to renewal of domain name registrations, Registry Operator shall provide ICANN and each ICANN accredited registrar that has executed the registry-­‐registrar agreement for the TLD advance written notice of any price increase (including as a result of the elimination of any refunds, rebates, discounts, product tying, Qualified Marketing Programs or other programs which had the effect of reducing the price charged to registrars) of no less than one hundred eighty (180) calendar days. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, with respect to renewal of domain name registrations: (i) Registry Operator need only provide thirty (30) calendar days notice of any price increase if the resulting price is less than or equal to (A) for the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending twelve (12) months following the Effective Date, the initial price charged for registrations in the TLD, or (B) for subsequent periods, a price for which Registry Operator provided a notice pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.10(b) within the twelve (12) month period preceding the effective date of the proposed price increase; and (ii) Registry Operator need not provide notice of any price increase for the imposition of the Variable Registry-­‐Level Fee set forth in Section 6.3. Registry Operator shall offer registrars the option to obtain domain name registration renewals at the current price (i.e., the price in place prior to any noticed increase) for periods of one (1) to ten (10) years at the discretion of the registrar, but no greater than ten (10) years. (c) In addition, Registry Operator must have uniform pricing for renewals of domain name registrations (“Renewal Pricing”). For the purposes of determining Renewal Pricing, the price for each domain registration renewal must be identical to the price of all other domain name registration renewals in place at the time of such renewal, and such price must take into account universal application of any refunds, rebates, discounts, product tying or other programs in place at the time of renewal. The foregoing requirements of this Section 2.10(c) shall not apply for (i) purposes of determining Renewal Pricing if the registrar has provided Registry Operator with documentation that demonstrates that the applicable registrant expressly agreed in its registration agreement with registrar to higher Renewal Pricing at the time of the initial registration of the domain name following clear and conspicuous disclosure of such Renewal Pricing to such registrant, and (ii) discounted Renewal Pricing pursuant to a Qualified Marketing Program (as defined below). The parties acknowledge that the purpose of this Section 2.10(c) is to prohibit abusive and/or discriminatory Renewal Pricing practices imposed by Registry Operator without the written consent of the applicable registrant at the time of the initial registration of the domain and this Section 2.10(c) will be interpreted broadly to prohibit such practices. For purposes of this Section 2.10(c), a “Qualified Marketing Program” is a marketing program pursuant to which Registry Operator offers discounted Renewal Pricing, provided that each of the following criteria is satisfied: (i) the program and related discounts are offered for a period of time not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) calendar days (with consecutive substantially similar programs aggregated for purposes of determining the number of calendar days of the program), (ii) all ICANN accredited registrars are provided the same opportunity to qualify for such discounted Renewal Pricing; and (iii) the intent or effect of the program is not to exclude any particular class(es) of registrations (e.g., registrations held by large corporations) or increase the renewal price of any particular class(es) of registrations. Nothing in this Section 2.10(c) shall limit Registry Operator’s obligations pursuant to Section 2.10(b). (d) Registry Operator shall provide public query-­‐based DNS lookup service for the TLD (that is, operate the Registry TLD zone servers) at its sole expense.
