Yes. The platform is currently having some 503 issues but it can have new translations for those languages.
I have added reviewer rights to mdrights on the platform.

i like this idea, ad the others as well. i think with the current situation we may wait a bit to publish.

I also think Chinese speakers like to call the languages Hans and Hant, maybe before we publish we can change the names for the languages? (move 'zh' to zh-Hans and zh-TW to zh-Hant)
