We need a new coordinator for Simplified Chinese translation

Hi WG members, Hope you all are well. I'm writing this email to ask for help, as the sync pipeline for Simplified Chinese document translations has been broken for a long time. The workflow is hosted on GitHub Action(https://github.com/python/python-docs-zh-cn/tree/master). And its last success was already 8 months ago(https://github.com/python/python-docs-zh-cn/actions?query=is%3Asuccess++). Our contributors have prepared a fix for the workflow. However, we cannot reach out to the current maintainer of this repo to merge it. And we have tried to ask in the translation mail list (https://mail.python.org/archives/list/translation@python.org/thread/YOPHUNQ7...), but it seems there is no response. So, would you like to assign a new coordinator or maintainer for the repo? Then we can work together to fix the issue. Thx & B.Rgds Du, Meng

Greetings, Thanks for everyone's attention and contribution. I have successfully contacted Xiang Zhang (@angwerzx), one of the coordinators of the Chinese (Simplified) translation and a CPython core developer. He informed me that he is awaiting the response of Shengjing Zhu (@zhsj), the other coordinator, regarding his opinion. He argeed that we could appoint a new coordinator if @zhsj is unavailable. I understand that everyone is eager to proceed and may be frustrated by the delay, but I kindly request that we try to be patient and wait for his reply. After all, my expectation for the coordinators is not only to fix the CI, but also to enhance the overall translation quality and address other long-standing issues. Best Regards, Nyuan Zhang

Hi alphanow, Nyuan and Mariatta, Thanks for your work and interests on Chinese translation and sorry for my late. I tried to reach out to zhsj who is the Initiator and maintainer of the translation project and did a lot of work, but no response. I think it's rather reasonable to add new coordinators of the translation project. Nyuan Zhang has expressed the interest to be a coordinator. alphanow, are you also interested and willing to be? And Mariatta, it seems I already have the rights to assign new admin to the github repo and new coordinator to the transifex team. Can I do it directly or there is some procedure I must follow? Best Ragards Xiang

Hi everyone, I agree that it would be great if the current coordinator could help continue to maintain the project, or hand over the role appropriately to other contributors by themself. We haven't heard from them for a long time though, and we still can't contact the current coordinator after another dozen days, so I don't expect to be able to reach them anytime soon. I also believe that we should not wait indefinitely. So, I think we should consider assuming the absence of the coordinator.

Mariatta, I checked I have the rights to assign new admin of the Github repo and new coordinator of the transifex team. Is there any procedure I must follow or I can directly give the rights?
