Chinese coming this time?

[Rubber Duck]

IE haven't blogged in nearly a fortnight, and probably haven't said anything useful in a month. I am now, however, unable to access any kind of download for Chinese at Microsoft. Are they preparing to put up the download of the Chinese Version. It is only about a fortnight after the official launch. Is it still too early to expect anything?

They've changed the layout of the Chinese IE7 download page, but still no Chinese version as far as I can make out.

They also now have a download page with a drop box to choose language...

I am trying to work out if the other languages actually have the verification thing. When I have been going through to Japanese, I go straight to the file download. Is that what the AU hold up is really all about. Are they only just starting to roll out the verification procedure?

Released today

Chinese Trad out, it goes straight to the download.

Still no sign of Chinese Simpl.

hmm, i'm more worried about the dopa low traffic. if this continues, my account will be shut.

[Drewbert]

Yep. Verisign plugin traffic levels are dropping again.

Chinese is here just not at a download anywhere near you. The buggers released it in China of all places.

Watch out for a download button at Baidu. Once that happens, there should be some action.

As long as those Verisign and Chinese ie6 plugins behave.

other than the RC1 editions the only cn downloads I see are for
Windows XP Professional x64 Edition and Windows Server 2,003. Does that matter?
Also anyone know if they will check for a authentic version of windows, like the ie7 en version did. if not any guess on how long it will take for a viable non-authenticated version to be available?
