Haoqide Posted April 15, 2004 at 11:48 AM Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 at 11:48 AM AX, hey, man! Yeah, M$Linux...heheh, right. Anyway, I'm hoping some of those suggestions are helpful and get used in the new OS. If you guys have any specific issues you'd like an idea on how to handle differently (my coder buddy is always bouncing things like that off me), post it here or just e-mail me directly. I can't guarantee it'll be a good idea I come up with, but I'll do my best... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric Posted April 16, 2004 at 06:24 AM Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 at 06:24 AM I think it's kinda silly to make a whole new distro that doesn't do anything but change the default language. Why not put development into existing projects to that the internationalized parts work well with Chinese? (After all, the applications are what will matter in the end). Supporting General internationalization efforts is much more worth the time/money since it helps everyone, and it's already matured a little. I also find it funny how TurboLinux seems to be popular in China TurboLinux is owned by SCO (har har har) the MS of Unix! For the most part though, I think if the governments are going to help, they should work with internationalizing the existing software! It'd be nice to have Chinese documentation for most software, and maybe default language selection for the installation apps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MS Virtual PC 2004 allows use of linux, as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haoqide Posted June 23, 2004 at 03:38 PM Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 at 03:38 PM Great! Glad I could help! I wish I could do more, but I can't think of anything at the moment. As soon as I do, I'll post it here, but for now I think my brain is empty of any good ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
