OmegaT - Implementation and Limitations
Sabine Cretella, Open Progress, Translator and Evangelist

Translating with OmegaT can cover a high percentage of a translator's everyday translation work. With its future connection to WiktionaryZ it will become more relevant. Being it a Java tool it works with many different Operating Systems, but at the same time, being it a Java tool that relies on the ISO 639 standard implemented by Java it has its limitations.

Some examples on where it is actually used (if time allows for that).
