ICANN blog: Fire on Cargo Ship Affects IT Equipment Bound for ICANN57 Hyderabad
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh Oct. 3, 2016

Oct. 3, 2016

https://www.icann.org/news/blog/fire-on-cargo-ship-affects-it-equipment-bou… "However, two services will not be available as a result of the fire: Interactive Remote hubs. Remote video hub operations have provided live broadcasting of participants from preapproved locations into select Main Hall sessions. Due to the complicated matrix-style setup and equipment needed to provide this service in multiple languages, ICANN cannot provide this service in time for ICANN57. Remote participation in sessions is not affected. Content Delivery Network (CDN) service. Provided by Akamai, CDN servers host content from thousands of companies on a local server, which significantly improves response time of downloads and updates for participants. Without the CDN service, you will still have Internet access, but might notice slower response times for select downloads."

Google: A Neural Network for Machine Translation, at Production Scale
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh Oct. 3, 2016

Oct. 3, 2016

https://research.googleblog.com/2016/09/a-neural-network-for-machine.html "Ten years ago, we announced the launch of Google Translate, together with the use of Phrase-Based Machine Translation as the key algorithm behind this service. Since then, rapid advances in machine intelligence have improved our speech recognition and image recognition capabilities, but improving machine translation remains a challenging goal. Today we announce the Google Neural Machine Translation system (GNMT), which utilizes state-of-the-art training techniques to achieve the largest improvements to date for machine translation quality. Our full research results are described in a new technical report we are releasing today: “Google’s Neural Machine Translation System: Bridging the Gap between Human and Machine Translation”.

Fwd: [ALAC-Announce] ICANN News Alert -- Attention Adobe Connect Users: Service Change (Action Required)
by Beran Dondeh Sept. 27, 2016

Sept. 27, 2016

Dear team I have not been on a lot of calls lately due to some personal issues but upon reading the article below regarding the new adobe connect features ( which Dev touched on briefly on the last call), I can't help but wonder if this does not make redundant our pilot caption program. I see it will offer multilingual chat, scribing among other things... or am I missing something? Clarifications would be appreciated.

Having the server under ICANN's management means that Adobe Connect will be more stable than in the past. You should experience increased call quality and better customer service.

What!?! Adobe releases beta version of Adobe Flash Player v23 for Linux
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh Sept. 19, 2016

Sept. 19, 2016

Wow, Adobe has decided to update its Flash Player for Linux. Previously, the NPAPI Flash plugin (which allows for use in browsers such as Firefox) was kept at v11.2 for several years now. But in a blog post, Adobe has announced "...we are updating the beta channel with Linux NPAPI Flash Player by moving it forward and in sync with the modern release branch (currently version 23). We have done this significant change to improve security and provide additional mitigation to the Linux community." Read the announcement at https://blogs.adobe.com/flashplayer/2016/08/beta-news-flash-player-npapi-fo… and download Adobe Flash player beta at http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer.html Dev Anand
