Hello Rotan Thanks in advance to Kan for that translation. Will it be Simplified or Traditional Chinese? Please, make sure that Kan knows of the few requirements that are listed at: http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Translation/#volunteer Particularly, I'll need to find a disclaimer listing (1) the title of and link to the original English document, (2) that the document is a translation which may contain errors, and (3) that the original English document on the W3C website is the one that is official. (Items (2) and (3) must be in the target language.)
