I work with a colleague in China. With a recent change to our application and 
0.6.6, the build process tried to download 
http://unicode.org/cldr/data/common/main/en_GB.xml 

However, unicode.org is not accessible to him - it must be on the blacklist of 
the "great wall of china" - the firewall which is around all Chinese internet 
users (see 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship_in_the_People's_Republic_of_China


The workaround for us was to manually download en_GB.xml here in the UK, send 
it to my colleague and have him put it in fronted/framework/source/locale. Now 
the build process (actually impl.mk) doesn't have to download the file and the 
build proceeds normally.

Obviously this is easy to work around but it involves hacking into the source 
tree. You might want to consider other ways around this. For example, including 
the chinese XML configuration files as standard so a Chinese user doesn't have 
this problem. Or even including all the configuration files as standard.
