 The LRC concentrated on German-English translation, though a copy of the Russian Master Dictionary was deposited at the LRC after the ALPAC report.After a general hiatus ca.1975-78, new funding led to the development by Jonathan Slocum and others of a new system with the same name (the METAL MT system), but with new sets of tools for linguists and vastly greater success, resulting in the delivery a production prototype then later a full-fledged commercial MT system.
