I guess, few my translation is easy to be misunderstood, and I own some explantion: like 2 places: 1, 'There are a great many "reasons" why kernel code should be merged into the ...' Here if 'reasons' translated as 'benefits/advantage', that would fits better in Chinese converstion custom. (I don't strong oppose this). but usually we keep 'reasons' original meaning. 2, 'managing patches with git and reviewing patches "posted" by others.' Here the 'posted', I did think a lot on '发布' or '提交', It costed me sometime, But finally I used '发布' not ‘提交’， since the latter is easy to be confused with git 'commit' in Chinese, while patches we hold here were posted by email, not 'git'. > >> What you did right is polishing the Chinese words, make it more fluency and fit better for Chinese >> custom, although it costs a bit verboseness and a bit precision.> > The word 'polishing' is the perfect word to describe this, thank you. We are not professional translators or interpreters (although my wife is one). :) But there is a standards of the Chinese translation, fidelity, fluency, elegence, let's hang on fidelity, and try best on fluency or elegence. :) Thanks Alex
