"tw" is the language tag for Twi (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twi), we can't 
use it for this translation.
"zh" is the language tag for Chinese, it can be followed by subtags. "TW" is 
the region subtag for Taiwan.

So if "Chinese as spoken in Taiwan" is the language Adrian is translating, the 
repository will be named "python-docs-zh-tw".

According to PEP 545 (and BCP-47) we should *not* use subtags if it does not 
add usefull information. Typically "fr-FR" "French as spoken in France" is kind 
of redundent and should be simplified "fr".

So can we simplify "zh-tw" to "zh"? I don't think so, as there is another 
project, "zh-cn" (https://zhsj.github.io/python-docs-zh-cn/), but as I don't 
speak chinese, I think Adrian also have its word on it.
