+
+It seems that would it would  be i18n-zh if you speak of
+http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwanese_Hokkien
+
+Now, the question is "when you translate something, what is the name of
+the file that you modify", ie what .po. Or how are the lists/group
+called in other project ?
+
+Beware to not use tld, that's different ( ie, tld are linked to country
+( except for generic tld ), and a country can have several official and
+unofficial languages and a language can be spoke in several country with
+or without differences )
+
+> However, we already have a google group for discussing l10n issues for  
+> traditional Chinese used in Taiwan (zh-tw).  Can we just register this google 
+> group as the official i18n list for Taiwanese users?
+
+I would prefer keep official for lists the sysadmin/web team can manage,
+and where the archives are hosted at our server, with our credentials
+( ie, we worked quite hard to have a unified login system, and spreading
+the list everywhere is just contrary to that goal ).
+
+But I do not remind what was decided about that.
+
+> Or, is it possible to create i18n-tw at ml.mageia and forward every mail to our 
+> google group?
+
+No. ml is kept for mailling list, not for alias. I would prefer to no do
+that.
+
+> BTW, will there be a general site/page for each l10n team?    (Like 
+> homepage/ways to contact/team info/translation access/member login?)
+
+If people write them, yes. I guess the wiki can host them, once setup
+( or the current one, if you do move the page once newer wiki is
+installed ).
