570.0. "Norwegian (Bokmal) and Norwegian (Nynorsk)" by R2ME2::GREENWOOD (Tim. I do Unicode.) Fri Aug 05 1994 12:31

Microsoft NT supplies two Norwegian locales - Norwegian (Bokmal) and Norwegian 
(Nynorsk). They differ only in the name, abbreviations and codes for the 
language.

What does Bokmal and Nynorsk mean?  We support the additional Microsoft 
properties in our locales, but planned on only shipping one Norwegian locale.
Which should we pick?

regards
Tim
