The Chinese Wikinews is now available at http://zh.wikinews.org/ thanks to Brion.
A number of pages are available at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/New_language_pre-launch#Chinese.28.E4.B8.AD.E6.96.87.29, some of which might need to be copied over to the new site.
Good luck to all involved with this new project.
Angela.

Fixed; I made a minor mistake in one of the configuration synchronization scripts and the updated list of databases didn't go to the server that runs the SSL interface.

thank you, brion. there are two more issues on zh.wikinews.org:
1) the zh.wikinews logo on upper left corner is missing. there are several candidates for this logo on http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikinews/Vote/Zh, but i am not clear if there is a decision from the chinese wikinews community. (i personally prefer http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Wikinews_zh_1.png)
2) problems about the interwiki and interlanguage links in zh.wikinews: 2.1) interlanguage links direct to languages on wikipedia instead of wikinews. for example: [[en:Main Page]] directs to the main page on en.wikipedia instead of en.wikinews; 2.2) [[w:中文維基百科]] (chinese version of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Wikipedia) directs to an article named "w:中文維基百科" on zh.wikinews, though [[wikipedia:中文維基百科]] directs to wikipedia;
2.3) however, [[wikipedia:中文維基百科]] directs to en.wikipedia instead of zh.wikipedia, (at this moment [[wikipedia:zh:中文維基百科]] must be used).

It may be easier for the developers if we write bugzilla reports about issues for zh.wikinews. If you contact me on my meta account (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Amgine) I can help you with getting reports for the developers. These reports allow the developers to organize their tasks, and helps remind them which things need doing and how long they've been waiting to be done.

If we could get a clear one chosen that would be great...
- problems about the interwiki and interlanguage links in zh.wikinews:
This should be all fixed now; use ?action=purge on existing pages before reporting problems in case they're still cached.
