	Absolutely. The Resource Manager helps automate tasks. It also shows the status of the state of translation within the source code itself. It helps different software development cultures, in particular those applying Agile processes, by facilitating the tracking, sending, and receiving of resource kits. Non Agile processes do still benefit from the Resource Manager.		'''Absolutely'''. The Resource Manager helps automate tasks.
