+<ul>
+  <li>If the <em>string</em> of the translation is not changed (compared to the original MT output), there will be no pairwise ranking update. </li>
+  <li>New rules are added (and known rules are annotated) in a leave-one-out fashion. Amongst other things, this implies that 'new' rules will first receive a weight upon their second occurrence. As OOV rules are added prior to translation, they are added immediately.</li>
+  <li>Most tables are sortable (click on respective column in header row).</li>
