Effort Greatly Encouraged

The only fully customised Chinese Linux in the world today I found is RedFlag Linux. I strongly encourage the above effort. Chinese fonts problems are always troubling all of the chinese community even how good ur skill of customising it in other Linux distribution, especially those who want English as interface but can properly display Simplified AND Traditional Chinese simultaneously using certain fonts such as Kai Ti.
