Oh my. Although I thank you for sharing this information, every time the Atlas is referred to there is a huge controversy all over the community!

Hi Tomás,

Thanks for letting me know that it has been discussed here before; I was not aware of that.

For others: see http://www.proz.com/topic/128122.

Thank you Daniel Oct 20

I disagree with Tomás. No problem at all with posting this information. The "controversy" is not shared by most of the community, but results from the "controversial" attitude of certain "members" with a chip on "their" shoulder. On behalf of all the rest of us, thanks again!
