Hmm, actually not, since zh_TW uses different glyphs and encodings than
zh_CN.  But until zh_TW people has their own page I think we can live
with it (my understanding is that many people in Taiwan reads simplified
Chinese better than English).

I think the English page is broken now.  The English page uses
iso-8859-1 encoding, and all the Chinese charactors are displayed as
garbage (I believe they are GB encoding).  Both Japanese and Russkij
(Russian?) uses HTML entities like &#26085; so I suppose Chinese should
use similar things.

I know nothing about php or HTML entities though, so I probably can't
fix this myself.
