Sorry to jump so late in the discussion, I've been out of connexion most of the week. I agree with your proposal to join developers and QA people, it's really important to have them working together. Concerning the VCLTestTool, the most interesting part is if you can compare between builds and languages like it is done on QUASTe. I should ask also if some teams use the screenshot ability for localization. Concerning the TCM, I've worked on specifications for a new tool that is being develop and will be integrated to QUASTe. The current infrastructure for TCM is far too complicated and mix administrative tasks and user tasks. Also, we need something that deal with plain text and not html. I volunteer to work on this if you need me and also to produce the test cases relative to the new features. Also, we should not miss the power of the NLC on this testing tasks, if we organize a simple and powerful workflow with a localization process, I'm sure we will find a huge resource with the NLC projects.
