  M2CRB is released with the aim to increase the coverage of the NLP for code research community by providing data from scarce combinations of languages. We expect this data to help enable more accurate information retrieval systems and text-to-code or code-to-text summarization on languages other than English.

- As a subset of The Stack, this dataset inherits de-risking efforts carried out when that dataset was built, though we highlight risks exist and malicious use of the data could exist such as, for instance, to aid on creation of malicious code. We highlight however, that this is a risk shared by releases of any code dataset made available.
