if requested before beginning with the project Oct 11, 2005

yes, I generate a separate TM and deliver, because it wouldn´t be otherwise possible to send my full master TM, into which all the new terms automatically flow, it is better to have this information prior to beginning. Best Brandis

you can always create a separate memory after the fact Oct 12, 2005

True, but you can always create a TM afterwards: just create a new empty memory and use it to clean the bilingual files for the project: the new memory will thus contain only the segments translated for the project.

Unclean files Oct 12, 2005

It's true, I wouldn't mind delivering it, but agreed beforehand. However I am more often asked to deliver the files "unclean". Does it happen to you also?
