Update information, Timothy has informed me that he may not have time for the further \
forum support. But I don't think it will effect my request and plan too much, I will \
keep it going. Thank you very much.

Hello the team,


       Today, we finally decide to write this application letter to the team for \
requesting setting up official Chinese forum as we have noticed that CentOS official \
site and its English forum had finished its update. After one-year preparation and \
communication, we think it is our chance and the time to make this application. Here \
is the detail.


Backround for CentOS is China


    CentOS is widely used in kinds of companies as a popular operation system for \
server. We can't tell an accurate number that how many servers in China used CentOS \
but we can tell that the most biggest Internet companies such as Baidu, Sina, \
Tencent, they all chosen CentOS as their operation system for servers.  Anyone of us \
can't imagine that how many CentOS users in our China. Because of this, we can think \
that how many Chinese users they may want to discuss or solve the questions during \
they use CentOS. However, the only helpful thing from CentOS official is just a \
Chinese wiki. There is even no Chinese version in official site.


Why we want a Chinese forum
   You may ask me why not use mail list?  Yes, I admit that we have had a ZH mail \
list but we found that most Chinese people won't  write mails for those \
question-based communication. I think this is somehow different from EU countries. \
The popular communication style for the world wide at present is going for SNS at \
present, China is also not an exception.However, the best method we consider is the \
thing that is not only aiming at providing a place that people could communicate and \
solve the questions, but also accumulating and classifying what people ever asked. \
Finally, we think a Chinese forum will be the best way, because it could not only \
supply people to communicate but also help us to accumulate and classify. Of course, \
if you do a research in baidu or google, you can also find there are thousands of \
Chinese forums related with kinds of Linux distributions. 


What we have prepared for setting up an official Chinese forum
   Main People
   ---- Timothy.Lee, known as Chinese wiki contributor, who is always keeping Chinese \
translation for CentOS wiki. He is the best person for help to solve kinds of \
questions at the very beginning and may expect to organize a Q&A group for further \
                forum.
   ---- I joined CentOS since 2010, with Chinese contributions experience for Open \
Source Linux system such as Fedora, Open Source forums such as Mybb£¬and Twitter for \
Simplified Chinese, several years of forum management and somehow the technical skill \
for maintain kinds of forum (installation, hacking, configuration and etc.)  Of \
course, my most important experience is I am the administrator of a 10-year and the \
largest Linux distributions forum in China which named as Linuxsir with more than 260 \
thousands members    Resources
    In the last year, I have started to make preparation for this application. \
Besides Linuxsir itself, I also got to communicate with few CentOS related forums \
which shown at the top of baidu and google search, such as centoscn.com, \
cncentos.com, centospub.com. They all agree and will support to join if we can push \
for an official CentOS forum. All of this will help us for strength the forum.   Of \
course, with the help of karan, we have had our official verified weibo account at \
Sina which is the largest and the most popular SNS in our China. It will help us for \
further promotion.  


What's the plan for CentOS Chinese Community in the future?
Promotion work: will go through our official Weibo account
Communications: Official forum, ZH mail list, Chinese wiki, maybe another blog for \
sharing storie


At the end, I think I have written a lot of words to express background, our request \
and how we have prepared. We are looking forward to getting approval and helping to \
making the forum out. Thank you very much.
