Seconded.
I live in Taiwan and I could speak/read/write Chinese because it's my native.
Not all people who use Chinese live in China....
BTW, some people who live in China could still read the mail list. At least I could name some in the foundation-l list....
Thanks and best regards, Ted (Hsiang-Tai)

Hoi, Many Chinese who read and write Chinse all the time do not live in China
at
all. The notion that only mainland Chinese are able to read and write Chinese is not correct. There are many languages supported by a Wikipedia that have fewer speakers and writers than the number of people who speak / write Chinese outside of mainland China. Thanks, GerardM

If
so, finding a Chinese translator will be difficult.
Indeed. One wonders why Chinese has been listed there at all, given that nobody in China would be able to participate (they can view the page, yes, but I'm sure the moment they try to edit it or upload a file, they'll be indefinitely blocked).
