房大说得也有道理，在AUR的邮件里也有提到这个，投票数并不是决定性的，它只是给TU的决策参考，TU第一位的任务保证包的质量，TU倾向于维护他自己常用和熟悉的包那是很正常的。不过总的来说就是“上面没人”啊，如果有个中国人TU肯定容易很多啊。
房大如果有精力的话，不妨和archlinux的人交涉一下，毕竟文泉驿已经在不少发行版里站了一席之地。想必大部分中国人都是不满意文鼎字体，如果不选择ms的宋体或者雅黑，基本上都会是用文泉驿的了。
其实如果象ubuntu那样中国自己有个ubuntu-cn库的话，可能就自主很多，不知道国内有没有人能自愿贡献些空间做个arch-cn库？

When the AUR voting was first implemented this very thing was discussed.
Since the TU's had always decided for themselves what should go into the
repos it was a concern to the TUs that this remain the way things worked.
The voting was merely a way to help a TU make decisions. It was promised
that the voting would never be used to dictate to a TU what was placed
into the repo.
Further, the AUR's voting mechanism is NOT based on anything that can be
trusted to indicate either actual usage OR need of the downstream user.
Even a download counter may not necessarily indicate this qualitative
quantity.
A TU remained a TU because he or she was doing a *Quality* job, and it was
also promised that *quantity* (either too much or too little) was NEVER to
be used as a criteria for continued participation as a TU. Adding any
particular package to the repo was specifically the job of a DEV and NOT
the job of a TU. It was promised that this distinction would always be the
case.
Why? Well the TU repo was designed to be more loosely run than the repos
the dev's used. It was to be a place for new ideas and packages that were
of a personal nature to a TU. Anyone could become a TU as long as they
showed enough talent and concern about Quality. The ONLY obligation of a
TU was to maintain a TRUST by QUALITY. At one point even the dev's were
encouraged to use the TU repo for binaries that they felt did not belong
in the dev. maintained repo. Although this practice has fell by the
wayside, it still has merit.
Specifically Arch was always a distro that encouraged participation and
new ideas. It also emphasized a K.I.S.S. principle and the values that
most linux distros share in terms of being both volunteer based and a
meritocracy. <- I personally can think of no better way to insure that we
stray from these ideals than to make up too many rules and too many
obstacles to anyone desiring to participate as they can and are
able to do. i.e. We should all find ways to make the TU position one of
something other than a JOB that requires too much other than personal
fulfillment.
And remember that ANY time to make things more specific and rigid, you
WILL have unintended consequences and worse a real chance for blow-back
affecting you personally. It certainly will make the TU position less
attractive to request and THEN we ALL suffer.
Very best regards;
