Dear TC-FORUM folks, I am an MT developer on academic leave from SYSTRAN Software, and I happened onto your site. From inside (linguistic development of MT) my perspective had been that few people were well informed about MT - but I had few opportunities to make contact with technical translators etc. who make use of MT/CAT tools.

I am so impressed with the level of discussion in your forum. It is realistic and practical and accurate, and I found nothing to raise my bloodpressure (as I used to in a Foreign Language Forum elsewhere. The contributors were often uninformed and paranoid about MT.) Your contributors really raise the level of discussion on the topic.

I found it all really encouraging, and I admire the high quality of contributions. What a great forum!
