This is great and I congratulate you. At the moment the Octave manual is
built from a combination of the function help scripts and some texinfo
code that surrounds them with the rest of the text of the manual...
Octave-forge contains all of the machinery to maintain translations of
the function help scripts, but there is no support yet for the texinfo
code that would correspond to your translation. For example you'll
probably want to have files like

octave_cn.txi
intro_cn.txi
preface_cn.txi
etc

that together with the translated function help strings could be used to
build a Chinese translated version of the manual. You should see the
octave/doc/interpreter directory for the English versions of these files.

This should be too hard to add to the octave-forge translations support
system. I and others could help out with the build system if you want to
supply the translated txi files.

Cheers
David
