The result is available here: https://www.dealloc.org/~mublin/lojban-source-words_zh/ There is also a README with more information, and an archive for download: https://www.dealloc.org/~mublin/lojban-source-words_zh/README https://www.dealloc.org/~mublin/lojban-source-words_zh.tar.gz PS. Viewing this will be more pleasant if you have Chinese fonts installed; the encoding is UTF-8 (Unicode).
