By the way, After I finish the module, who should I turn to for submitting? Hans, the garden, or CTAN? Thanks.
Submit it to the garden. If you also want it on CTAN, you can ask Mojca or Patrick to sync the module with CTAN. Then whenever you make a change in the module, it will be automatically synced with ctan and you do not have to worry about submitting to multiple locations.
One question before I add further suggestions: what's your relation to the author of zhspacing.sty?
We are good friends.
Your module depends on it, so in a way it would make sense to package it together on CTAN and TeX Live, but if you have no connection to the author, one needs to make sure that the right bits and pieces end up in the right place.
well, zhspacing is free software. so I am free to make any changes I want and redistribute that as long as I leave the original license information, not to say we (yindian and me) are good friends. (In fact, some parts of zhspacing's initial idea was suggested by me. since yindian is good at tex macro programming, so he developed the whole package base on the idea all by himself)
Not too related, but: do you have any idea why this file is located under doc in TeX Live? texmf-doc/doc/chinese/lshort-chinese/src/zhspacing.sty
yindian submitted the package to CTAN. but later some minor bugs were found but he was quite busy and did not have time to maintain the package. So he asked the CTAN maintainer to remove that package. But it is a useful package, so when the Chinese TeX Society plan to translate lshort into Chinese, the document translator planned to use that macro package, and that file is included in lshort-chinese package.
Well, OK, it's on lshort/chinese/src/ on CTAN, but I wonder if kpathsea finds the file at all. It looks like a slightly misplaced file to me, but I may be wrong.
Now Chinese TeX Society take over the development of zhspacing, xeCJK, CJKpunct and ctex package. They are hosted on code.google.com/p/ctex-kit. After a major release, we will submit all the packages to CTAN. So in TeXLive 2009 you can find these packages in texmf-dist.
