Good job, LandRover. I have several qustions/comments:
(1) You have translated nearly 40 XUI files out of about 140. Do you have a plan to translate others? (2) You call your work "CHT". The current convention employed by SL Viewer is to use RFC 3066 (RFC 1766) language tagging system. I believe your language is something that is identified as zh-TW (or zh-HK, zh-MO, etc.) by the system. You should put your translation in a directory of name "zh-tw". (3) In your file en-us/panel_preferences_general.xml, you use the word "zhengti zhongwen" (U+6B63 U+9AD4 U+4E2D U+6587). In my experience, Chinese word for a Chinese text written using traditional forms is called "fanti zhongwen" (U+7E4E U+9AD4 U+4E2D U+6587). Use of zhengti in this context looks inappropriate. Do you mind if use fanti? 16 July 2007

As of version 18-0-6, I have translated 133 of the 137 files found in en-us version into Traditional Chinese. The following ones are ignored: panel_settings_chat.xml (I believe that this file is to be replaced by panel_preferences_chat.xml) panel_settings_im.xml (I believe that this file is to be replaced by panel_preferences_im.xml) panel_settings_network.xml (I believe that this file is to be replaced by panel_preferences_network.xml) panel_settings_web.xml (I believe that this file is to be replaced by panel_settings_web.xml) 2. 3. The term "zhengti", literally "Official Form" or "Correct Form", is used officially in Taiwan. A Hong Kong or Macao user may derive a "zh-HK" version from my work, then tag it "fanti zhongwen". That is the common practice in Chinese pages on Wikipedia. Wow! Thank you for your effort to supply complete translation! Also I appreciate your compromise on the directory name.
On zhangti vs fanti issue, I understand your concern on the use of zhengti in Taiwan area. I have no objection to use the (hanzi written) word zhengti zhongwen in zh-tw translation. The issue I concern is the use of the word in the en-us data file. Once your contributeion is integrated into the official viewer releases, it will be a part of the Linden Lab's product. I have a feeling that the English file should be as neutral as possible, and use of fanti seemed better in the context. But, if you prefer zhengti over fanti, I have no strong opinion to change it. 28 July 2007

 Great, Alissa! Thanks for all your efforts and words that had made many contributions more worthful.
It's a pity I was not able to attend the triage meeting, but a "skinning project" seems to be good news for all. 7 August 2007
