Do you currently run FreeBSD?  Do you have reasonable access to the
net so that you can receive and run updated code (freebsd-current)?
These are fairly important prerequisites for anyone wishing to
actively develop for FreeBSD on a broad scale.  Adding comprehensive
Chinese character support would be a fairly extensive undertaking,
hence my concern.

If you have the access and can run FreeBSD-current on a development
machine, then I'd say that the next step would be to simply start
discussing your proposed changes with us.

Thanks!
