Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Advice on translating large Odt documents

Hi :)
Thanks :)  

Automation is helpful and useful but i tend to avoid completely relying on it.  

A tool that helps track where changes occur in updates to the original/source document and then 
points to the equivalent portion of the target document is exactly something i was hoping for.  

Every 6 months, or so, they do a new version release.  Almost all of it is the same but things do 
get added (or very occasionally removed).  Sometimes they just re-phrase things to make it smoother 
in English but we don't need to worry abut re-translating those bits, except to just quickly check 
that we did interpret it correctly the in the previous translation.  It's really only the additions 
and removed sections that we need to focus on.   

I've not heard of "translators friend" before but it sounds useful.
Thanks and regards from 
Tom :)

for parallel (segment-by-segment) translation. 
It was called "translator's friend" or in the 
similar vein. I didn't try it.
