Hey guys,

I just got this note from Kenneth Heafield, a machine translation researcher at Edinburgh. It appears that he has a funded opportunity for someone to come to Edinburgh, but needs a very quick turnaround of potential interested parties.

Hi,

Know anybody who wants a funded visit to Edinburgh for 6-12 months?
They should not be a UK citizen and not already based in the UK.

I need to put names in tomorrow (!) to express interest; this isn't a
commitment.

Visits can be taken in pieces that sum to 6-12 months.  Priority is
given (a pot of money has to be spent) on visits that contain at least 4
weeks before 31 March 2018.

Earlier I spammed moses-support with one restricted to non-Europe and
non-developing, but those constraints have been lifted.
