Hello! I still don't see the simplified Chinese page on the Mageia site.  
What's wrong with my translation? Can you improve it? Or do you have a  
better translation for simplified Chinese language? The translation has  
been sent to you at Sep. 22, but now there still is no a clear reply.

There are many large difference between Chinese and English. For some  
words such as "fork", it's very difficult to give a exactly literal  
translation, so a free translation is given. Many Chinese phrases also  
are very difficult to be exactly translated into English.  In Chinese IT  
media, "fork" is always translated into "分支" (branch) or "衍生"  
(derivative). It is a customary translation.

Since you said that simplified Chinese translation is only  
representative of simplified Chinese language, so, please add a page  
which link is "zh-CN" and name is "简体中文".

Take care!
