Example: The latest released Globalese version is 4.3.3, and an engine was trained on version 4.2.1. If version 4.3.0 was released less than 6 months ago, the engine is considered supported.

Unsupported (grey)

Note

Bugs are no longer fixed for unsupported versions.

Over time, changes that “favour” more recently trained engines will get introduced. This means that some of the “older” engines may start running into errors during translation, and being slower in general. Retraining these engines will result in significantly improved quality and speed.

Example: The latest released Globalese version is 4.3.3, and an engine was trained on version 4.1.4. If version 4.2.0 (which followed 4.1.x) was released more than 6 months ago, the engine is considered unsupported.

Deprecated (red)

Notewarning

Deprecated engines must be fully retrained before they can be used for translation.

...

Example: The latest released Globalese version is 4.3.3, and an engine was trained on version 4.0.1. If version 4.1.0 (which followed 4.0.x) was released more than 9 months ago, the engine is considered deprecated.

The number of days until deprecation is visible on the engine overview page under the column Days until deprecation.

Info

To update an engine to the latest version, a full re-training is required. Quick training does not change the version of an engine. However, a full re-training is only recommended when the status is unsupported. Engines with supported status can be still safely used.

A note about stock+ engine versions

Stock+ engines are customised customized stock engines (read more here). This means that the version of a stock+ engine is directly determined by the underlying stock engine. For example, if the version of a stock engine is 4.0.1, the version of the derived stock+ engine will also be 4.0.1.

Stock engines are not always up-to-date with the latest Globalese version. It may occur (especially after a new Globalese version has just been released) that while you are already using Globalese 4.0.1, one or more stock engines are still available as version 3.12. Consequently, if there is no stock engine with the current Globalese version, the stock+ engine using it is still considered current as there is nothing gained from retraining it.
