I don't know. You should ask some Norwegian fellows. Maybe the former gnucash 
translator Kjartan Maraas, or you can look at KDE's and Gnome's Norwegian 
translation team websites.

I'll leave the merge up to you. Just send me the final translation po file 
that you think should be used, and I'll put it into SVN.

Again: Ask the other Norwegians. I have no idea. "locale -a | grep no" says 
that no_NO and nb_NO exist. Since no other _XX country extensions exist, I 
would suggest to stick with the short "nb.po" (compared to e.g. "locale -a | 
grep de" where you have different country extensions).
