Can you share with me what is your favourite method of managing terminology/glossary and how do you share them with other translators if not by *.tbx?[/quote]
Well, I happen to know that there's a related [url= [url removed] ]ISO standard[/url] so the theoretical side has certainly been examined (and is under periodic review), but in terms of real-life practice I am not knowledgeable about this area. Jean Dimitriadis' answer looks like a useful start.
