Is there a good source with comprehensive and complete termbases for download and categorized by different domains and industries?(also in a consistent format (CSV or TBX))... See more

Is there a good source with comprehensive and complete termbases for download and categorized by different domains and industries?(also in a consistent format (CSV or TBX))? So far, I've found a Microsoft site (http://www.microsoft.com/Language/en-US/Terminology.aspx) that had a good collection of terms in various languages available for download...too bad it is specific to Microsoft technology.
Otherwise...I might have to resort to writing a script to scrape data from the sparse network of glossaries online...

You could try my collection of Dutch-English glossaries at: http://wordbook.nl/ I try and convert everything I find into tab-delimited UTF-8 text files, and the glossaries are divided into subjects.
Good luck!

Thanks for the resource! I'm looking specifically for English to Chinese glossaries. But I'll see if there are any in the links you provided.
