Chinese Language Enablement (clreq) **Languages: English (current)** | **简体中文** | **繁體中文** This is the place to explore gaps in support for the Chinese Simplified and Traditional scripts on the Web and in eBooks, and to document requirements. We aim to address the problem that local users don't know how to tell the W3C what problems exist for support of their language on the Web, and the W3C doesn't know how to contact people who can help when questions arise. Topics for discussion are suggested by the gap-analysis template. This work feeds into the language matrix which provides a heat-map for language issues on the Web.

(Learn how GitHub issues work.) Note that the public-i18n-chinese mailing list is used to send notification digests & meeting minutes. It is **not** for technical discussion. **You may raise issues in Chinese, however any substantive discussions should be summarised in English at some point, so that non-Chinese speakers can follow the rationale and contribute comments.** Participate You can participate in the work at various levels. In order of increasing commitment, these include List subscriber, Participant, Editor, and Chair. Explore the options. **To just follow the work:** Rather than 'Watch' this repository, subscribe to the public-i18n-chinese mailing list. That list is notified (no more than once a day, and in digest form), about changes to issues in this repository, but also about other W3C Working Group issues related to the Chinese writing systems. If you prefer to receive notifications of all discussions for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages, subscribe to the public-i18n-cjk mailing list. **To contribute content:** All contributors should read and agree with CONTRIBUTING.md. **To become a participant, editor, or chair:** contact Richard Ishida or 薛富侨 (Fuqiao Xue).
