Conference feedback

A great conference! Congratulations to all who made it a success. I wasn't able to accompany as many events as I wanted but will be revisiting them over the coming month.

Thank you for organizing such important virtual conference. It was very good and useful for me.
For the moment, I do not use CAT tools becuase I mainly work in interpreting. Some of the sessions were basic for me, others were very advanced. In general the conference recorded a success.

Time From To Content
12:38 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All so there is no difference between the installation file you send me with activation code and the installation file for trial version right?
12:39 Apr 8, 2014 Samira C: 1826866 All thank you that's nice from you I hope you enjoyed our virtual event
12:39 Apr 8, 2014 Samira C: 1826866 All have a nice day :)
12:39 Apr 8, 2014 Smita Bonde: 1908187 All yes, right :)
12:39 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All thanks
12:58 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All I've sent a message about localizing the GUI and/or manuals for DVX3 into Greek. Blandine said you would contact me. Shall I expect to hear from you in the coming days?
12:58 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All I can see that Daniel Benito is no longer present, but since (I hope) this chat session will later be scrutinized and analyzed, I will add one more problem with deja vu x2 here.
12:58 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All The reason why I am doing it here, as opposed to contacting support, is that I have found that contacting Atril's support often brings no results and no solutions (or even no answers) are offered.
12:59 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All Here goes: when I run Find-and-Replace Deja vu x2 does not tell me how many replacements have been made, and what is worse,
12:59 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All Pavel, DVX2 won't get any more updates...
12:59 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All the changed segments are not marked in any way as changed (but are still marked as 'finished')
13:00 Apr 8, 2014 Claudio@Atril: 1765942 All Hi Epameinondas
13:00 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All It adds to the above discussion of why 'finished' should not be preferred over 'confirmed' at the translation stage.
13:00 Apr 8, 2014 Claudio@Atril: 1765942 All how are you today?
13:00 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All Hello
13:00 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All I'm fine
13:00 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All (sorry I post the last message publicly, while it should have been private, to you)
13:00 Apr 8, 2014 Claudio@Atril: 1765942 All Thanks for your offer to localise the UI
13:00 Apr 8, 2014 Claudio@Atril: 1765942 All that is indeed interesting
13:00 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All Well, Epa, I do not feel that this is the official Atril position :) or there will be very many unhappy customers.
13:01 Apr 8, 2014 Claudio@Atril: 1765942 All we have a similiar arrangement with one of our users in China
13:01 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All I think they've said that .641 will be the last build for DVX2
13:01 Apr 8, 2014 Claudio@Atril: 1765942 All he localised the UI into mandarin
13:01 Apr 8, 2014 Claudio@Atril: 1765942 All and we provided him with a DVX3 WG license in exchange
13:01 Apr 8, 2014 Claudio@Atril: 1765942 All would that be something you would be interested in?
