Stefan, it sounds like a great idea, and something that has come up quite
recently - Dan Meuth brought up "Translation Memory" software (I believe
I've got the name right there).

I'm currently working on a similar project, although from a different
perspective. I'm working on the people side, not the words side. :) There's
a web server and room already available for this project, so perhaps we
should join them together. They would complement each other well.


If you're really interested in getting this off the ground, please email me,
and we'll see what we can do.
