Nice to hear that :)

Great.  Before accomplishing the full TM capability, I think it would
be easier and more important to at least have the words contained in
the Gnome Glossary automatically translated in translatable modules.

I think all the GTP projects have the glossary ready and offering this
feature would only require a search and replace approach for about
3000 words contained in the glossary.

I am happy to hear that. This is indeed the correct approach and I
hope many teams will find online translation very helpful.

I also hope to see Rosetta going open source some time in future :)
