I think your confusing terms here.  TMX is a file format, TM is 
Translation Memory, which I assume is what you are talking about.  
Terminology matching has nothing to do with TM or TMX.

Pootle does Terminology matching, like my previous mail said.

Pootle does not do TM live.  We've been working on these features and 
hope to release it with future Pootle versions.  We have quite a 
powerful TM server, it's mostly working.  The interface is in alpha.  It 
needs quite a bit more work to test the usability and reliability.

To be honest we, the developers of Pootle, need financial support to get 
this into the final product.  If you believe its important enough then 
lobby Rafaella and Oracle.

For now you can do something slightly different.  Download the ZIP of 
your translations.  Import those into your offline CAT tool and now you 
should have TM, at least for offline use.
