Hi Ashman,
Have you posted this question yet on Russia's forum? I would recommend getting a good idea there first of whether reaccreditation problems have been worked out in that program. I recently received an email from one agency that we'd explored before choosing our China-only agency--it was notification that they were closing their Russia program for the time being (let me clarify: the agency was closing their Russia program, not that Russia was halting its adoption program).
I know we've had quite a few potential parents on this forum lately who have switched from the Russia program to the China program. That leads me to believe that maybe things are not looking encouraging there, but I honestly don't know, nor would I want to give the wrong impression.
In the meantime, if you are just looking for basics about China's program, I would recommend googling "Chinese adoption." Most agencies offer such informative overviews that you may have all of your questions answered (even if you just look on the site of an agency you have no intention of using). You may also want to check
http://www.fwcc.org/topics.html for the website from Families With Children From China.
I will say that there have been some rumors that waiting time for a referral from China have gone up. If an agency website cites less than 10 months for a referral, I woudl chalk that up to it not being updated. Many folks here are saying that they've been told 10-14 months for a referral. Mine lists 11 months as the wait time from the point that all of your documents arrive in China until you receive a referral of a child (travel takes place about 6 weeks later).
Good luck with your search, and congrats on yoru decision to explore adoption.
Christina
