So the goals I see are:

A) get the site up on echarts.apache.org running on ASF Infrastructure
is goal #1

B) see if we can make it faster with ASF InfraStructure and a CDN to
avoid step C but realizing that step C is likely necessary...

C) provide a Chinese mirror of the echarts website that makes things
more usable for people from China.  For me, I thought about all our
policies and Apache Way.  I believe done with these steps laid out, it
is fine and within the jurisdiction of the project to decide:

- a 100% mirror of the ASF site, nothing different, that runs on a
subdomain such as zh.echarts.apache.org and automatically is synced from
the echarts.apache.org server.

- A banner or something on echarts.apache.org/zh that recommends/links
using zh.echarts.apache.org/zh for faster speed if they have issues.

- Release downloads still link to ASF Infrastructure, e.g.,
https://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/echarts/4.2.1/apache-echarts-4.2.1-incubating-src.zip.asc.
 
Question: are downloads problematically slow or they are just a few
seconds slow and people don't complain about it because it's a download
more than an interactive website?

- Baidu donates the hostingso there are no financial impacts to the ASF

- If any recognition of the donation is given, we make sure to follow
fundraising targeted sponsorship policy (see
https://www.apache.org/foundation/docs/Targeted-Sponsorship-Policy.pdf)
which basically means it has to be approved.

- And of course, the project PPMC votes to do this

Hope this helps,

KAM
