Thanks for the explanation. I was unsure. In the meantime I've done some
homework. Well, the difference may be not as much as between Japanese and
Korean ;-), but anyway sufficient for a separate translation.

hmm, adjusting my statement: the correct language tag would be zh-cn,
right?
(traditional would be zh-tw or zh-hk - are there actual differences between
taiwan traditional and honkong traditional?)

Oh. They _are_ useful. The docs are not static. Noting the original CVS
revision number at translation time will help you to track the changes and
keep the translation in sync.

yep, I think it's clear now. I've done a first CVS checkout from your site.
If nobody beats me before and there are no objections, I'll try to
integrate it into our CVS next time (read: 1-2 weeks).
Thanks anyway for the contribution!
