That sounds fair.

CC'ing the currently registered translators for Simplified
Chinese. Could you guys look at Yixuan's objections?

[Deng, Xiyue]

That translation may have been done before I took over. If the
command-line action is never translated, it is pointless to translate
them in the "--help" message as the translated action won't work at all
and may confuse users. So I guess it'd better to keep them untranslated.

Thanks for the notice.

Deng Xiyue

Yes, Yixuan is right, the two switcher shoud NOT be translated,
he had sent this message to debian-chinese lists, we talked about
this, and I think many chinese people will agree this view.
