Since today I get this message:

IBM Watson web service is not available

Are there any colleagues who can connect to IBM Watson Translator via an API?

IBM Watson translator deprecated

Hi Hans,
You may have heard it already heard it, bur IBM Watson translator is deprecated: https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/language-translator?topic=language-translator-about
I notice it was quite well supported in the free software branch of CAT tools, but I've never seen it supported in the main tools. Interesting, isn't it?

I still get suggestions from Watson but I can see that the system isn't trained anymore.
