This is interesting, this thread is probably one of the most active in last couple months. :-) My option is to merge these two mailing list. Even though the list is most helping Debian users solve their problems, and users feel more comfortable when using the characters they can read. But there are already many local user group[1] set up online forum for helping out the users, which makes the mission of these two mailing lists marginal. Some people would say Debian is doing very good on supporting Chinese. But it does not mean we can stop the mailing list. Still, there are many decisions need to be made for the new packages and releases. And both encodings/languages communities are sharing these results of these decisions, since we are sharing the basically infrastructures for fonts, input method, configurations. The mailing list is the right place to submit Chinese-related suggestions, which is the place that Debian Developers can discuss and work together. A boundary of mailing encodings will make this kind of discussions difficult. And most of the modern softwares support big5/gb2312/unicode without problems, people can easily read the messages or translate the encodings by themselves. There is not need to split the mailing lists by encodings. best regards - -Rex 1. http://www.chinalinuxpub.com/bbs/forumdisplay.php?f=73 http://www.debsir.org/ http://www.linuxsir.org/bbs/ http://moto.debian.org.tw/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIMP4YOl4Wbdx2/rkRAj7jAJ4y0kY+E6yvtuF7jlXi68+zD2MvhgCeM/cs yhlu39HZHLJecoRuiEG5xTk= =Csn6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
